We just sent my grandpa a generator last week. 124 pounds costs $600 to ship. He's former military, but he was pleading with our family to send him one, because he couldn't handle it anymore. We've only heard from my grandma on the other side of the island twice (San Sebastián) and only for a few minutes before the cell phone signal drops. Word-of-mouth from family and weeks later seems to be the only way to get information out of there. It's insane to me. My mom here in the states cries a lot reading the tragic news coming from the island and watching the queues of people at the stores getting turned away from FEMA after they run out of supplies. Grandpa has never seen FEMA in his town of Guayanilla. /:
