<div>Eighteen months later — where we are, and what your money did.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>First: thank you. 191 of you gave $20,959, and I have thought about that on a lot of hard days.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your $20,959 is earmarked for replanting trees and a shed — once there's a house to put them next to.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here's where we are:
</div>
<div>$540,000 insurance payout for the rebuild.
</div>
<div>$256,158 spent on:
</div>
<div>• secondary debris removal
</div>
<div>• removal of 5 dead trees, including a mature oak, and disposal
</div>
<div>• architectural and structural design plans for a house I couldn't afford to build (which is why we switched to prefab)
</div>
<div>• permits
</div>
<div>• soils reports
</div>
<div>• engineering
</div>
<div>• first payments to Villa Homes on the prefab contract
</div>
<div>• medical bills after John was disabled getting us out during the fire evacuation
</div>
<div>• a small loan to someone who had no renters insurance, which I don't regret and won't be seeing again
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The remaining $251,000 is in holding for the build and our builder needs $331,000.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>FEMA denied me because I carried homeowner's insurance even though there would be no duplication of benefits.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What's left — $129,000 to go, and I've raised the goal to match:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• $89,000 owed to our builder to finish the house
</div>
<div>• $20,000 for solar with battery backup — my daughter and I both live with Type 1 diabetes, and insulin has to stay cold when the grid goes down
</div>
<div>• $20,000 for replanting and a shed — already covered by what you've given
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have a claim pending against Edison. Nobody knows what it will bring or when, but our builder needs paying now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you can give again, you know exactly where it goes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And I'm hoping all of us can find businesses to donate and help us reach the goal! So please forward this to just one company or person :)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for staying with us.

</div>
<div>My children and I lost our home in Altadena’s Eaton Fire on 1/8/2025. We got out with the clothes on our backs and the dogs, cat, and guinea pigs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My daughter and I both live with Type 1 diabetes so we avoid death daily - fore isn’t taking us down either.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Originally</strong> <strong>I was asking for money for socks, food, insulin, everything!</strong> But I have a contractor and <strong>insurance will only cover part of the rebuild.</strong> Anything will help and I appreciate your support. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Love you all!
