but comparitively, not near the dead of Katrina, when W was attending a birthday party in Texas, and missed the whole thing......on his return to Washington the next day, he flew over it, but didn't stop.........

The death toll was somewhere north of 1800 people..............

Did any places at all just have minor damage? Or does the whole island look like the coast?

It’s hard to process

Is Jamaica on its own, or does its government have any help in the americas?

I imagine how you feel. When I returned after Milton last year my area looked like a war zone. People still don't have their houses back together.

The US has provided helicopters and personnel for drop offs plus $22m in assistance.
There are a few areas with nothing - homes gone, no power, no water, no food.
We never even lost power or water.
Our rural folks - rich and poor took this hit. I don’t know where will will put all this debris.

I hope the homeless get temporary housing. It's often the case that followup news isn't done as a news practice and so people lose awareness. So thank you so much for the info.

Keep the faith.

And our creeps will do as little as possible.
