When the air conditioning at an elderly couple's house went out two weeks ago, the couple had concerns boiling about how to stay cool this summer.

The heat can be dangerous for people over 65, due to the heightened risk of them getting sick or dying when the temperature rises.

“We’ve been here forever. My kids were raised here,” Elia Ybarra said at their home of more than 50 years on Lido Lane in northwest Harris County.Guillermo Ybarra is wheelchair bound and the couple relies on Social Security and SNAP benefits to get by, they said. They called their daughter out of town to help figure out a fix.

Arellano tried to get ahold of Harris County’s Home Repair program and even filled out an application. She also reached out to HVAC companies to get bids.
