Eight days after Hurricane Ida, 71 percent of New Orleans electricity restored

6. I'm sorry you're sick!

It's got to be a lot worse under these circumstances. I'm glad your water and sewer have been restored. That's the most important thing. I wasn't sure what to expect after the first estimates they were giving. They were probably estimating it would take so long in order to keep people out of the city while they were doing their work.

I just looked up some suggestions for home remedies regarding stomach problems, and it said ginger, mint, and spearmint are all good for indigestion and diarrhea. Sounds like you might need something from a doctor, though, but I don't know if you can reach your doctor or if you have a pharmacy available.

The anti-vaxxers piss me off, too! They're taking up all the beds in the hospitals that people need during a disaster. You don't want to wait too long before you're seen by a doctor, though. You might need something done about this right away. If you want to drive over here to Gulfport, I probably could get you an appointment with my doctor. Don't let it go for too long!
