"They're like, 'Oh, but we're giving y'all free rent,' and I'm like, 'Yeah, but with all the stress.'
"Every three months, (FEMA is) sending us a letter saying this thing is about to be up. And our hair is falling out, and I'm getting gray hairs, and I'm thinking we're about to be homeless. And then on the news we hear, 'OK, it's extended for another three months.' We go through this all the time, and it's real stressful.
