Title: Ike

I'm just reading our local newspaper and it says they don't know how many people perished in Galveston, but two dialysis patients did because they couldn't get to treatment. Another cancer patient whose oxygen machine shut down. Wish the cancer patient had gotten a generator, or does that mean she/he ran out of oxygen?

I guess it depends on if they were on a ventilator or not. Otherwise, they probably just couldn't get new tanks.

on a report Saturday morning at D
a lady in Galveston has to walk 40 blocks to get ice and water and to go to the doctor and she has to walk in raw sewage
and she is worried about her two dogs b/c they drink that sewage water and they are acting funny
she did not leave and her second story apartment flooded to wake her up with water in her bed
she spent the night on a neighbors balcony
or so she said
cadava dogs are going to check areas where bodies could have floated or drifted too
we know one montgomery child was struck by a tree as his family cleaned up
a teenage girl burned to death - she was helping a neighbor pour gas in a generator and she was holding a candle
such sad stories
