I have been lucky. The area I live in (Naples) has gotten hit and trashed my mother’s house. We were in the middle of having the roof replaced so we had to have all the walls ripped out because of mold. Saw the eye go right over us. It was a scary day but since I was taking care of my bedridden mother and my brother - who had severe depression - I had to keep my head screwed on tight and could not allow myself to lose it. It helped there was family around. We have gone without power for days - which is horrible in Florida.Things could have been worse. Water flooded the street there but since the area was high it didn’t come in the house at my place or into my mother’s. We are just lucky we are now in sturdy housing that is high up and not real close to the Gulf.
