On November 17, 2025, our family’s world changed in an instant. A heater in the kitchen caught fire, and while my fiancé, our three-month-old baby, and I were not inside at the time, my mom, my sister-in-law, and her two-year-old were. When I arrived home, I saw smoke pouring from my mom’s window. My sister-in-law and the baby had already escaped, but my mom was still trapped inside. I broke her bedroom window, climbed through the glass, and pulled her out, cutting my hands in the process. Her injuries were far worse—she suffered serious burns on her feet, and her clothing had already started to smoke by the time I reached her. It was one of the most terrifying moments of my life, and I’m still overwhelmed with emotion when I think about how close we came to losing her.
We are incredibly grateful that everyone survived, but my mom is now in the hospital in a coma, on a ventilator, and fighting MRSA. We are hoping every day that she will recover and be able to breathe on her own again.
Now, we are facing the reality that we no longer have a home. We don’t have anywhere to go, and we are trying to figure out our next steps while balancing medical needs, lost belongings, and the shock of everything that happened. The funds from this GoFundMe will help us secure a new place to live, cover immediate medical expenses, and provide temporary housing as we work to rebuild our lives.
Any support—no matter how small—means more than you know. Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for any help you’re able to offer.
