For Dianna
Record-breaking flooding on Thursday 11/5 devastated parts of Copperhill, TN and McCaysville, GA when the Toccoa River and Fightingtown Creek surged over their banks. I am raising funds for my best friend of 26 years, Dianna, who was displaced from her 2-bedroom garage apartment near the Toccoa River. Dianna is safe and staying with my husband and me along with her 3 cats and sweet Yorkie while her home is repaired and made habitable again.
Floodwaters rose more than 10 feet up to the flooring of the building, causing major damage to the sub-flooring, wooden floors, electrical panel, and water heater. Some of Dianna's furniture could not be salvaged, and many items stored in the garage under the apartment were swept away. She also lost food and pet food that spoiled, along with rugs, mats, and other household items damaged by the water.
This has been an especially difficult ordeal because Dianna recently had shoulder surgery. She is struggling emotionally and physically, and she is not allowed to lift anything over 10 pounds. That means even basic cleanup and moving damaged belongings is far more difficult while she is trying to recover.
Donations will help with food, replacement heaters, linens, pet food and health items, replacement appliances, clothes, rugs, mats, and other essential household items while her home is being restored. If you are able to give, any amount will be enormously appreciated and will help Dianna get through this painful and overwhelming time. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser would also mean so much.
