It continues to be a very hard and stressful situation for the family.  They still do not have any answers as far as what will happen next.  It's been nearly 2 weeks since the storm and they are all still scattered around friends houses and in and out of hotels.  FEMA has given them a hotel room for 30 days, which we are very grateful for.  However, they needed to leave the hotel due to it being booked for a wedding this weekend.  And since they have only been given one room, my brothers & sisters continue to stay with friends. 

They haven't been allowed back to the "house" for over a week now.  They were told they wouldn't be allowed back there anymore and that cleanup efforts have begun. 

They all just really want to go home.  Unfortunately, home doesn't exist anymore. 


I wanted to give everyone an update some of the pets since many people have been asking about them. There are four of them that are scattered with my brothers & sisters at their friends houses.

Reptar is the iguana.  He is with Kady and is doing great!  The family that Kady is staying with love him.  I'm sure he is making himself at home.
 
Pippa is the cat who is staying with Mary.  She is doing great too and has adapted to not being the only cat in the house. 
 
 
I know they are doing well but I know these too miss each other.  They are best friends and could always be found like this:
 
Giant, their dog, and their turtle are with my brothers. Giant is very sad.  He won't stop whining and crying.  He definitely misses his home.  
 
The poor turtle is in a little box since they put him it to evacuate thinking they would be able to put him back in his tank the next day.  His tank went with the house. 
 
 

We are extremely grateful that many people have been asking what is needed. Everyone has enough clothes, shoes, warm coats, etc now thanks to very generous donations. Since the family is not in a home yet, at friends houses, and in & out of hotels, they can only have so much stuff with them. I've created an Amazon wish list of items they will need once they are finally in a home. We are hoping this happens sooner rather than later but no one really knows for sure. Please pass this along to anyone who may be interested in helping out. Everything will be shipped & stored at my address in MA until the family is in a new home. Thank you so much for your support!!
