Our ice storm in Jan 2009 ... we were without power for 17 days...my Dad didn't have power for 23 days.
We "forced" him to come to our house (He was 80), also had our 7 1/2 mo PG DIL, 3 yr DGD, DS is in Nat'l Guard so he had to leave and DH is a truck driver so he had to leave too.
Lucky for us...we had gas heat & water so we got a generator but had to drive for an hour to find gas. Our Dishnetwork & Verizon worked so we were soooo much better than others.
I feel for ya. Hope it comes on soon.
so glad we had a "farm trk" to break thru broken trees at dads house
