My name is Paula. My mom lost her home in a fire. Everything is gone. Every piece of clothing, money saved, family pictures, and some heirlooms that were over 100 years old. All gone. It’s the home I grew up in. Where all my childhood memories are. The memories of my Dad, who was so proud of his home. She’s 75 years old and worked at celeanse over 30 years until she retired and every thing she owed and ever treasure she held dear, gone. Luckily, I was on the phone with her when it all happened and able to get there and get her out in time. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find/save her beloved Kitty. Mom and Dad bought that house when I was only 6 months old. It’s all we ever knew. We have insurance but until then, her and my brother need to replace everything they had. Down to the tiny things like a toothbrush and her medication. Watching it burn is the worst thing I have ever seen and knowing I could do nothing about it. This stuff happens to other people.?
