I am so sorry. So very sorry. If you can find a way to help directly, I'm sure we would all like to. I just refuse to go through a government that picks and chooses who lives and who dies on the basis of fascist mentality.

I assume the International Red Cross would be a start — so long as they don't charge the recipients of aid. Again, hope all you know and love are safe.

Considering the number of people in the area, I would say 60k is a low number. 100k is more like it. It’s a terrible tragedy
