My Venezuelan co-worker broke down in my office when this happened. Apparently, the epicenter was her hometown and she had friends she couldn't reach.

That sucks. Any luck reaching her friends since?

I've genuinely been too afraid to ask her. I don't want to rip open any wounds.

I'll do a general question next time we talk like, "I hope things are well back home?"
