There is no more help options for me & my dog. I have to write this quickly as The Radisson Hotel Austin North in Texas just kicked me & my service dog out into the street so I am using my laptop on battery power. I am a 49 year old woman who is seriously ill & trying to make a home in Guatemala. Our nightmare began on April 21st 2009 when we were schedule to fly from Portland, Maine to Houston, Texas. From there, after visiting friends, we were going on to San Jose, Costa Rica, then busing up to Guatemala where I own a small house. All flights were booked as 1 way flights. I booked online but called to confirn my itinery because I fly with my dog. I was assured more than once that everything with our plans were fine. We arrived at the airport early but where informed our flight was rescheduled. Well, that went on all day.in a nutshell, it took us 2 days to get from Maine to Texas & we slept a little in JFK airport. My dog had to go 24 hours without food. Right now we are out in front of the Radisson with nowhere to go. Jet Blue messed up our flight to Cosa Rica so it was completely canceled. After a lengthy battle I was told that my money would be put back into my bank account so we could at least survive & perhaps take a bus to Mexico. I am retired so I only receive a small monthly check. They even had talked me into renting a car as that money is gone as well. We are down to $30.00 until June 1st. I have not eaten 2 days now. We had to sleep outdoors last night as I was supposed to leave & the hotel is booked. They were nice enough to keep my things for 1 night but now I am going to lose everything as Jet Blue has not returned my money, not 1 dime & I could have booked a ride on the Greyhound bus for tomorrow morning to at least get to the Mexican border, but now I do not have enough money for even that. The Radisson will not keep my belongings for even 1 night if I cannot show that I can pick them up tomorrow. So here we sit, it's been thunderstorms on & off all afternoon & is supposed to rain into the evening. We will sleep on the ground, behind a building, in the pourin rain, all of our belongings gone, nowhere to go, no money for food or water, all because Jet Blue is greedy & the Radisson is the same. Oh, the security guard Gail, just came out to "give" me a sandwich... I can buy my own damn sandwich THANK YOU! I never asked for anything free, just some human kindness. I will try to post this on a couple of other site & email a copy to Jet Blue & the Radisson. I pray we die soon, rather han drag it out. I an completely exhausted as is my poor but WONDERFUL dog! Here is the Radisson's email & phone # 512-451-5757
