Description

A Venezuelan family in Ottawa is reeling from heartbreak as devastating earthquakes struck their homeland, claiming the lives of Maria’s grandmother and cousin while leaving her parents stranded in Canada with dwindling medicine supplies and no clear path home. With over 3,500 dead and tens of thousands missing, Venezuela’s infrastructure lies in ruins, cutting off access to water, power, and basic necessities. The Canadian Red Cross struggles to deliver aid amid chaos, while Maria’s elderly parents face agonizing decisions about returning — unsure if they can survive without critical meds they brought for just two months. Their story underscores how natural disasters rip families apart, even across borders.
