Anika, I feel for you sweetie!! I know it's easier said than done, but just try to relax and know that after the storm comes the calm. I know you're in Canada so things are a little different than here in the US, but there is a phone program here that is for anyone who is the state's care. They cover the fee. It's not a cell phone, but a house phone and it helps for times like these. Try and see if Canada has anything similar.
