My country is destroyed

Dear followers, I’m from Ecuador, and we just have had on Saturday a major earthquake that measured 7,9.
The coast is the most affected region of my country, we are not completely ready for situations like this, is hard to see how many people have died and so many are trapped and there are almost 2000 people injured.
It’s difficult to find a way to keep working normally in the cities that haven’t been that affected, so that’s why and if you really can, try to go to Ecuador’s embassy in your country and ask how can you help, we need water, food and medicine as priority.

Thank you so much.

I’ll return writing probably in a week, I’m trying to help with what I can.
