Yes, I am, thanks (I’m in Phoenix with our kids). She’s awaiting a liver transplant, staying with her mother & brother. They all have cell phones, but I’ve received no calls nor been able to get through since Saturday afternoon (at which time they were OK but without power or a land-line phone). I’m wondering if the cell towers are overloaded? Thanks much for your offer.

The stress of not being able to reach your wife, particularly with her illness is terrible. If they lost electricity, they may have turned off cell phones to conserve batteries. There have been widespread telephone overloads due to the storm. If you still can not reach them, you may want to try local emergency management for a status report on phone services.

Cell phone service is intermittent right now. Most calls are dropped or go directly to voicemail, and we seem to get voicemail dumps about every 4-5 hrs.

Many, many prayers for you and your wife. I hope that you hear from her soon. God bless you and your family.
