House Fire Victims
Donation protected
Hello my name is Darcy Dejesus, my house on 1518 Dudley Ave Utica,NY 13501 burned down on Tuesday, November 27 at 1:30ish pm. I live with my family of four; my two sisters, my mother, myself and five dogs. I was the only one at home when the fire happened, it was absolutely traumatizing trying to get as much dogs out safely including myself. The littlest dog wall-e almost passed away in the fire but was rescued by firemen hours later after searching endlessly through the house that was in shambles. He survived a horrible fire, gallons upon gallons of water being poured into the house, smoke inhalation, and the roof collapsing onto the second floor where he was. All of us, including the dogs, don’t have a home at the moment. We’re staying at a hotel and have no clue what are next moves are. We lost everything; as an artist myself this is devastating I lost all of my paint and artwork that I’ve ever created. All our personal belongings were lost and all our clothes were burnt to a crisp. All the dogs need medical attention for smoke inhalation and possibly pneumonia since they were wet and in the freezing cold.
