My missing firefighter nephew      .

Hello:
I am a paternal uncle to      who is still missing. I will do my best to attend this family rally on the 17th. My comment is that I lost my job during this crisis and i was told outright by all supposed helpers: Red cross, Family Center, etc. that I was not eligible for any assistance at all. I even applied to FEMA with no response. I was practically almost out in the street.
I found out that I was not a "next of kin" even though I helped raise     when both his drug addicted parents died. When do I become next of kin?

Why was I not offerred financial assistance yet large businesses downtown received thousands...what am I, a chopped family member?
