To live in a natural disaster

In september of 1998, Puerto Rico was struck by hurricane George, especially, on the Westside of the country. The hurricane destroyed the island and everything its way. There was no potable water no electricity, no crops anywhere in the island. While the hurricane happened i watched it from my house and saw how it destroyed house and cars. I thought that she was safe to see it from my house, but the hurricane took half of the ceilling of my house and the water penetrated and damage all the equpment. The bad thing was not the disaster of the hurricane; the bad thing was stepping in total devastation; the dead in the street floating. In my house we were three months without potable water or electricity. The worse thing was the food and that although you had money there was no food in the supermarket. Somehow i feel familiarized with the tragedy in Haiti, i know what is to be hungry and thirsty and with money in my pocket and not to be able to buy anything because everything was destroyed or there was nothing eatable. I also know what its like to hope for food, water, and medical aid. At the moment Haiti needs any aid to us is good.
