Nearly 400 people are missing two weeks after Hurricane Ike hit parts of Texas.

“There are a lot of elderly folks, just looking at the age column,”

Many of them are from the hardest hit areas of the county, including Boliver, Crystal Beach and Gilchrist.

About 75% of homes in the Galveston area are uninhabitable.

For the first time since Hurricane Ike blew away much of the city, residents of Galveston began streaming home today.

But the city is in such bad shape, those hurrying back home were given an ominous warning: Bring tetanus shots, rat poisoning and don’t bring children.

If that’s not enough, planes are spraying the city with insecticide to prevent a boom in the mosquito population, the water isn’t drinkable and people are urged to wear face masks to guard against inhaling toxic mold that is proliferating in the sweltering city.

One way you can help is through giving to the Greater Houston Community Foundation.
