My fire update - long post.
Thank you all so much for your love and concern.Today is just day 2 of our new life, and there's a long road ahead before we are back in our home. So many of you have asked what I need or how to help or bless us financially. I don't really know what I need. I'm going to buy some clothes today, and at least some shoes. I have only my flip flops that I wore out of the house. Those are basic needs along with some toiletries. Until a full assessment is made on the home and its remaining contents, I have no idea what things can be saved after the smoke damage, if at all. Some items can never be replaced - like my children's baby pictures or my honorary doctorate from Spelman, or my favorite photo of my mother.
At the request of so many of you, my daughter created the Go Fund Me account for us, which will help fill in the gap as we work on getting back to a sense of normalcy. Thank you also for your offers of your homes for us to stay. You have touched my heart deeply. We're good for this short-term period, (30 days) but I will have to look for a longer-term option. Y'all, there are just a million details that you don't think about in trying to recover and replace from a loss like this. I am way behind on responding to your posts and text messages, but please know, I will get to everything soon. ... See MoreSee Less
