Help our Family Rebuild After Lightning Fire Destroyed Home

Hello friends, Last night on March 23rd at 9pm, lightning struck the roof of our house.

It caused an explosion in the attic that blew a hole in my daughter's ceiling. Thankfully, she wasn't in the room, and the flames spread so fast due to the weather.

We all quickly exited the home safely and promptly, wearing only our PJs and having our phones in our pockets.

The firefighters got there as fast as they could, but sadly, the whole upstairs was already up in flames...

We were thankful our cat survived the fire, and he's making a full recovery.

After seeing the house today, it's clearly all destroyed.

The kids' rooms are all gone, and our downstairs rooms are in shambles.

I've never experienced such a loss like this in my life and have gone through so many emotions in a short amount of time.

We checked into a hotel with just the clothes on our backs and just wanting to rebuild.

I'm so sorry to ask, and this is all new to me, but if you can contribute in any way, me and my family would be so thankful...

If you can't, that's okay, we understand life is hard for everyone. Maybe please share this with anyone who may be able to help out; it is more than I can ask for.

I love you all and I appreciate all the people who have sent us such nice messages of support!
