First, thank you for your service as a Red Cross volunteer. Second, thanks for raising the post-disaster issue. I live on the Gulf Coast, in the heart of the hurricane belt, and it's surprising how little I've seen on Medium about disasters such as Hurricane Ida and the California wildfires, given how devastating their impact can be. It's been a little bizarre to see my feed filled up every day with articles on topics like how to make money on Medium amid so much suffering elsewhere. I hope your post will inspire others to share their thoughts, especially about their experience of living through disasters.
