Tough to deal with!

So this last weekend, I got a call that I don't want to repeat EVER again. My mom was on the other end crying and I couldn't understand her. I first thought something happen to Ryan, because he has problems with his heart. I was wrong... When I finally had my mom calm down.. she said its on FIRE... we LOST everything. The camper caught on fire that they were living in until they were able to move into the basement of their remodeled home. Everything that was important to them and all their personal belongings were GONE. Luckily nobody was hurt and the firemen rescued the dogs. The sad thing is they LOST everything. Everything that you would have in a home; they had in their camper. We did find her wedding rings and I did find some other diamonds. The other part that bothered me was they made the front page paper in the local newspaper. It pretty much gave their address away, so on Sunday we had a lookie lous.....spelling ?. We are thankful that they have family and friend support and prayers. There have been some people that have helped my mom and Ryan out. The part that is really making my mom sad is she lost all of the Christmas presents and some she said are not replaceable. I keep telling her that I am glad you two are still here with us. So now its time to rebuild and move on. We did get them in the basement, so they are living in the basement. Its not done, but its livable for now. I guess you never take anything for granted. I have never been this close to a person in a fire and I hope I won't experience it again. Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Last weekend to shop for Christmas. I know I will be one of those last minute shoppers. Take care
