Yesterday my daughters home burnt down, they lost everything. We are all devasted but thankful no one was in the house at time. They have four children. Imagine losing everything, I can't wrap my head around it. The community has been wonderful. There will be an investigation but they think it was an electrical fire. They lost 3 pets, so sad. If it would have happened 8 hours earlier everyone would have been asleep. I am so thankful that they are all safe. Please pray for them .

Oh, Donna. I am so, so very sorry to hear about this horrible fire. While I'm quite sure they are grateful none of them was injured, I can't imagine the amount of grief your daughter and her family are dealing with. Sending prayers and lots of ((hugs)).
OCD is not an adjective. It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized. It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son.
How utterly devastating. Their guardian angels worked double-time to ensure they all made it out alive...though I am saddened by the loss of their pets (also family members!). However horrible, houses and things can be replaced; people can't. I also echo what others are offering - besides prayers, whatever we/I can do to help as they rebuild. Truly, my heart and all prayers go out to them.
Oh Donna! I'm so sorry to hear this! I can't imagine what she's going through! Hugs to you, too!
My prayers are with your family at this time. Let us know if we can help in any other way.

Oh dear, Donna. I am so sorry to hear this. Please let me know what I do to help.
Donna, so sorry to hear this. Miraculously they were all out of the house when it happened, and they are all safe. Sorry about their pets. My prayers are with them.

I'm so sorry this has happened to them and the loss of their pets. Devastating news. Many prayers for your family, Donna.
There have been 2 tragic fires in our area in the past week. One family had 8 children and lost one. I don't think the other family lost anyone. I didn't hear alot about that one. Just horrible for everyone!

Oh no Donna how absolutely heartbreaking! I'm so glad they are all safe! Prayers through this time for you all!
Donna how horrible, sad, and tragic for your daughter and her family. Thank God they are all safe but losing their pets is devastating. And losing their home and everything in it is also devastating. ((Hugs)) to you as I know as a mom this is horrible for you too. Let us Cherries know if there is anything we can do to help.
