'Ten intolerable days after Hurricane Maria trounced Puerto Rico, Sahria Garcia finally got a call from her brother on the island. The call lasted three minutes and the news shook her: Her family had lost everything jobs, houses, possessions, cars and had spent days foraging for food, ice and water.
