i cant even beleive it right now, i have such a unreal fear of fire already (3rd degree burns to my arm 3 months ago) that i just couldnt deal with this, i cried all day yesterday.
thank God everyone was alright, and their kid (my nephew ) was at my house all day yesterday, hes just 2. Everyone was out when it happened, apparntly it started as soon as they left, they got a call like a half hour later from the police. I cant understand how it spread sooooo fast, we have a fire station like 2 blocks away so firefighters were litterally there withen minutes. They lost everything they owned, the only thing left was their garage, (which is basically empty, there were no cars in there) and the basement which was just used for storage.
Right now they are staying at her husbands parents house, i have never seen kristina so upset before . Evern avery (their baby) seemed terribly upset yesterday, although we arent going to show him the house, he doesnt need to see it. Their dog is MIA, but their cat, bear somehow, allegedly escaped, either through an open window, or through a door when the firefighters booted it in, were kinda confused. He took off and bolted into the farm that behind their house, but last night we found bear so terrifyed underneath a neighbors deck. He so shooken up we couldnt even approach him, but i think hes good now, i think lucas (kristina's husband) got him. thank God at least we got bear back.
heres some pics i took when i got back down south from uni, theres literrally nothing left.
the fire looks like it started in the back for sure, but its tough to say whether it started in their kitchen or in the top floor. they say they hadnt cooked all day so its still really a mystery as to what started it. But it really doesnt matter to be honest, the house is gone regardless.
good thing they had insurance on the house, thank God, but its still unreal that they lost everything, they had a computer full of wedding and baby pictures and tons of dvds and pictures of avery
i dont think they have even had a chance to go through it yet and salvage what they can.
Whats really unfortunate is that they JUST sold the house 2 weeks ago, paperwork and everything was done, they were moving out in 2 weeks, They were out shopping for tile for their new house .
ill keep it updated as to whats going on, but its just so surreal right now, i havent cried that much in a long time
