Tallahassee Democrat | 09/09/2005 | Room for everyone: "Storm-tossed family of 14 finds refuge in Florida A&M student's apartment

It's been nearly two weeks since Jaimee McKenzie's family fled New Orleans.
They expected to leave last Tuesday, but their plans were interrupted by the loss of electricity, the mounting chaos infecting flooded streets and no word from authorities about coming back to the city they know as home.
In the meantime, a generation of 14 relatives - ranging from Jaimee's 88-year-old grandfather to her 7-year-old sister - must find comfort in her two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment that is now their temporary home."
