Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 I live in South Florida, and they have just closed schools for Thursday & Friday in several school districts along the East Coast. Although I am very worried about what this hurricane is going to do when it hits (wherever it hits is going to get damaged badly), we have decided to stay at our house. It has been a long time since the threat of a serious hurricane has been predicted to come to my area (I knew Charley was going to miss us). When was a baby, we used to have to check into the hospital, so we could have oxygen hookup and a power source for his medical equipment. The only equipment he has now is his feeding pump. I also don't think he could last at the house if we were out of power for a long time after the storm without the air conditioner, especially because he is wearing a back brace now that is very hot. We were lucky enough to borrow a generator from my husband's workplace, but I am wondering if other people have encountered a situation such as this & what they did. Since we are still unsure about what part of Florida this hurricane is going to hit, I wish all of you who are in Florida worrying with me luck (maybe it will miss everyone & turn at sea - wishful thinking)!
