Lou-Lou,
 
I am sorry to say that your story has been all to real for too many people.
The benefit of coming to the FEMA tent at Walmart is that you speak to a
real person, but it does not always mean real results.  Send me your parents
information and I will pass it to one of the field supervisors and see if
she can try to track it better for them.  As hard as it is- don't give up
and keep focused on small successes, we'll get there.
 
Good luck and God Bless,
Craig

Craig,

On another subject, I would like to ask questions about FEMA. Does it help 
people that have flood insurance as far as reimbursment on gutting?  And my 
parents are staying with me on the north shore and so far have gotten no 
help from FEMA. The called in and filed with FEMA two weeks after the storm 
and were deined any help because their application was all wrong when they 
recieved it in the mail. It stated they had no flood damage. I heard my 
father answer all FEMA'S questions but the application was totally different

from what he said to them. He didn't get the $2,000 emergency money which 
they have now stoped giving out or any other help. My parents are on social 
security and my husband and I are the ones helping them. I believe FEMA 
should help them since we lost everything, our home and our business, too. 
They had flood insurance but not enough. We went to the FEMA place at 
wal-mart and they were going to straighted it out, but still nothing. I know

people on the north shore with no damage to speak of and they are getting 
help. This is unfair and I don't know what to do. We have called so many 
times and have gotten no where. I'm afraid my father will have a heart 
attack trying to deal with them so he has given up. I am disappointed in my 
country. Where do I turn next? Is it too late to still try to get help from 
FEMA?
