This past Sunday, a fire started in my brother's room. By the time I realized it and opened his door, the whole room was engulfed.

His room, the room next to it, the kitchen, and half the living room are completely gone. We lost everything from clothes to food to everything. What wasn't lost in the fire was water damaged.

We are completely lost on what to do. We have been staying at a hotel, which is quite expensive. We are at the Belleville Motor Lodge, and it's $140 a night. We do have an appointment on Wednesday for new housing, but once and if we get it, we will need to restart from scratch.

Thank you to all that can contribute. - Thomas and Brian McCrea.
