I feel like in just one week I was challenged physically, mentally and emotionally by being in a different place realizing the destruction. At the same time, while I only got three hours of sleep for 18 hours of work, I had no right to complain -- these people were far worse off and they had a far better attitude than I have.

It's easy to forget about it because it's so long ago that people are desensitized by it, and they have just moved on to the next big thing. But just because it is out of sight, out of mind it doesn't mean that they aren't still struggling out there.
