Thank you for your kind words and support, Lemon Drop, kanesa, mikebw, robfilms *(:>*
Been reviewing a lot of stuff that I think they may need. We still have no direct lines of communication.
I do not truly know the exact conditions of their current shelters. Reports about their homes and Apartment in Tacloban and Beta-og were not good.
I do know Lilian's mother went on a tarp shopping trip to Tacloban before the Typhoon arrived and brought back tarps for their place in Beta-og, Lawaan. I also know she purchased extra food and water.
Firstly I am sure they need sources of food and potable water.
As people have mentioned municipal and government relief can take months. Roads are bad
power lines and cellular towers are down.
If the 3 pigs made it through the storm they have fresh meat as fish supplies may be limited.
I know from my Hurricane experience in Hawaii (Hurricane Iniki was a Cat 4 Hurricane) and reading about Katrina relief and Sandy relief it is not going to be a picnic.
Has anyone here had any experience with Berkey Water Filtration Systems. I am initially impressed
with video and written information about them.
