When the bus doors opened and we looked in, all we [teachers from the school where they're staying] could see in their faces were our own parents and grandparents. None of them were ambulatory. They had to be hauled from their bus seats, helped/drug down the very steep bus steps into wheelchairs into a gymnasium full of cots. They were all wearing depends that were well beyond any possible absorbancy. Volunteer teachers, nurses, and med students had to clean them up with zero privacy. And there was nothing we could do but try to make privacy shields from sheets of pegboard.

Gosh, nothing to say to that, other than Thank G*d you and others were there to stay and help those poor people.
