ON AUGUST 3, 2015 APPROX 9 PM MY NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE SET FIRE. I AM TOLD THEIR WATER HEATER MUST OF HAD A SLOW LEAK THAT OVER TIME FINALLY BUILT UP ENOUGH PRESSURE TO CAUSE THE WATER HEATER TO EXPLODE. THE NEIGHBOR'S HAD STORED 3 TALL OXYGEN TANKS NEAR THE WATER HEATER SO SOMEHOW BETWEEN THE EXPLODING WATER HEATER & THE 3 OXYGEN TANKS IT IGNITED 15 FOOT FLAMES THAT STARTED BURNING THEIR HOUSE DOWN.
(TO FAST FORWARD TO WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO US), WERE THE INNOCENT HOUSE AND FAMILY OF 3 ALONG WITH OUR CAT'S THAT HAS HAD TO ENDURE THE HELLISH NIGHTMARE SINCE AUGUST 3, 2015. THIS FIRE HAS BURNED DOWN OUR HOUSE FORCING US OUT OF OUR HOME W/ NO WHERE TO TAKE OUR CAT'S SAFELY TO LIVE. I HAVE POSTED SEVERAL TIMES ASKING FOR HELP TEMPORARILY W/ A CAMPER/RV TO STAY IN W/ OUR CAT'S. WE ARE VERY CLEAN & YOUR PROPERTY WOULD NOT BE RUINED. MY PRAYERS HAVE GONE UNANSWERED, OUR CARS WERE BURNED and RUINED IN THE FIRE, OUR BELONGINGS THOUGH NOT ALL OF OUR STUFF WAS BURNED, MELTED, AND NOT SALVAGEABLE. I WON'T GO INTO THE NITTY DETAIL'S BUT SINCE AUGUST 3, 2015 DERRICK AND I HAVE BEEN COMBING THRU FOOT IN A 1/2 OF THE NEWSPAPER INSULATION TO RECOVER ANYTHING WE COULD MANAGE TO FIND THAT WE HAD ON THE SHELVES, WALLS, TABLES, COUNTERS, AND PACKING UP LAUNDRY DRENCHED, SMELLING OF FIRE/SMOKE, BREAKING OUR BACKS, WE LOST OUR SPIRITS TO EVEN CONTINUE THIS FIGHT THAT HAS ALMOST DESTROYED OUR RELATIONSHIP, SEPARATED ME {US} FROM MY SON, LEFT US STRANDED, HOMELESS, LEFT OUR CAT'S STRESSED and CONFUSED WONDERING WHERE WE ARE (even though we go there to feed, water & spend time with them so they know they aren't abandoned or left behind).
***I AM TOLD BY THE RESTORATION COMPANY CREW I HAVE UNTIL MONDAY THE 26TH TO SECURE CAT’S OUT OF THE HOUSE & EVERYTHING ELSE THAT I HAVEN’T GOTTEN OUT OF THERE YET OR THEY WILL “ASSUME” WE DIDN’T WANT IT & IT WILL BE TAKEN AMONGST THE RUBBLE WHEN THEY TAKE DOWN THE ROOF, WALLS & HOUSE.***
EVEN THOUGH WE BARELY HOLD ON IN HOPES WE CAN FIND A HOUSE TO RENT OR A RV TO TEMPORARILY LIVE IN UNTIL WE CAN FIND A RENTAL HOUSE, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH EVERY DOOR I FIND TO OPEN IT QUICKLY SHUTS IN MY FACE AS NOBODY ACCEPTS THE SECTION 8 RENTAL VOUCHER. JUDGE ME BY MEETING ME INSTEAD OF THE STIGMA THAT SECTION 8 ONLY HELPS SHADY LOW LIFE PEOPLE.
WE ARE FAR FROM THAT TYPE OF PEOPLE WHO ARE A CESSPOOL SPONGING OFF SOCIETY. WE ARE CLEAN, DRIVEN, PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY THAT WORK & I’D LIKE TO GET BACK INTO SCHOOL TO FINISH UP MY DEGREE BUT W/O A HOME I WILL NOT TAKE THE CHANCE OF RUINING MY 4.0 GPA THAT I’VE WORKED TO MAINTAIN.
3 DAYS AGO DERRICK WAS IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. HE WAS UNDER A CAR THAT HE JACKED UP BUT DUE TO IT RAINING SO HARD THE GROUND BECAME MUDDY & BOTH JACKS HAD SLID LEAVING THE CAR NO WHERE BUT TO COME DOWN. REGRETTABLY IT LANDED ON DERRICK’S SKULL FRACTURING & LEAVING HIS FACE BONES BROKEN. FORTUNATELY BUT UNFORTUNATELY, DUE TO THE WAY HE HAD HIS HEAD HIS NASAL CAVITY & FOREHEAD SKULL TOOK THE BRUNT OF THE IMPACT BREAKING SEVERAL BONES BUT AFTER 2 CT SCANS THEY DO NOT THINK THERE WAS ANY BRAIN DAMAGE. HE GOES MONDAY 26TH TO A FACIAL SURGEON BCUZ POINT BEING IF HE DOESN’T HAVE A FACIAL RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY ULTIMATE BOTTOM LINE IS HE COULD LOSE HIS EYESIGHT IN HIS 1 EYE. DERRICK DOES NOT HAVE MEDICAL INSURANCE SO I AM TRYING TO APPLY FOR ANY TYPE OF HELP THAT IS OUT THERE TO PROVIDE A WAY FOR MAKING THIS SURGERY POSSIBLE.
****A MECHANIC CANNOT WORK OR CONTINUE TO MAKE A LIVING WITHOUT HIS VISION, HIS HANDS, OR THE PROPER TOOLS TO SEE WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED.****
***PLEASE SHARE OUR STORY AND IF NEED BE EMAIL OR CALL US WHENEVER YOU WANT TO HELP KEEP OUR SPIRITS GOING. WE WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FIRE NOR WAS IT OUR FAULT BUT WE ARE SURE LEFT ALONE FORGOTTEN BY EVERYONE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT EVEN HAPPENING.*** I HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN THE HELP WE’VE RECEIVED & CANNOT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH!! OUR EXPENSE BILL HAS GROWN EVEN TRIPLED IN SIZE AND NEED THEM TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE & HELP US TO SECURE A SAFE COMFORTING HOUSE TO CALL HOME AGAIN. I MAY NOT BE USING THE RIGHT WORDS TO EXPRESS MYSELF OR MY GRATITUDE OR HOW TERRIFIED I AM THAT WE WILL BE LEFT IN THE FREEZING COLD. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO SHARE & NOT SHARE IN WRITING THIS POST ON GOFUNDME.
THANK YOU,
