Punta Gorda damage from Charley

The damage in the Punta Gorda/Port Charlotte area is far worse than what's being reported on TV. You should do everything in your power to find a way to spend a day down there helping those who really need assistance badly. I can't tell you just how sad it is to see someone's grandparents sitting in the remains of a destroyed home, waiting for help from the outside world. Yes, food and water are available now; what's needed are strong backs to help with the cleanup. There are plenty of reasons for not helping, but most are just lame excuses. I saw a 6 month pregnant woman, who drove down from Tampa, helping an elderly man clean up his yard in 95 degree heat. If she can do it, so can you... It will change you forever.
