Help My Mom Rebuild After Losing Everything in a Fire
Life has a way of throwing curveballs, but my mom just got hit with a whole batting cage. A few months ago, she lost her leg due to complications from diabetes. She had to stop working and go on Social Security, which was already a tough adjustment. Then, just when she thought things couldn’t get worse—her apartment building caught fire.
The fire itself was on the third floor, while my mom lived on the first. But with 12 fire trucks working to put it out, the aftermath was just as devastating. Smoke filled her apartment, ruining everything, and then came the flooding from all the water used to fight the fire. By the time it was over, she had lost everything she owned.
She’s currently staying with me, but due to my housing situation, this can’t be permanent. We’re trying to get her emergency assistance, but so far, it’s been a game of phone tag with no winners.
My mom is a fighter. She’s worked hard her whole life, raised a Type 1 diabetic (me), and somehow still manages to laugh through the pain. But right now, she needs help. Anything you can give—whether it’s a donation, a share, or even just a kind word—will mean the world to her (and to me). Let’s help my mom rebuild, because losing a leg was bad enough—she doesn’t need to lose hope, too.
Funds will be used for;
- Replacement of clothes
- Replacement of all hygiene
- Replacement of furniture
- Replacement of all kitchen items (dishes,silverware, pots&pans etc...)
- Replacement of all her blankets,sheets a pillows (everything Is ruined from the water damage plus the smoke)
Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts❣️
