Hi everyone, I thought that I would let you know that I wont be online for a few months. On Saturday at 5pm, our house caught on fire. The fire started in our garage and the whole house was engulfed withing 5 mins. The fire also spread to our neighbor on the north fire and burned most of their house down as well. My son and I and my BIL where at home at the time and we all got out saftly. OUr neighbors have been wonderful and help with donations of close and money. Because of the stress my IBS has been oin overdrive and I haven't eaten anything since noon on Sat. I can't keep anything down. My hubby and I and our son are staying at my parents house for a day or two more then we are moving into townhouse for a month and then to a place that is closer to his school for the duration of time that it takes for our house to be built again. The house was only 2 years old. I wll miss all of you in the intrum. As soon as we can we will get a new computer and I can let you know how we are doing. Take care and best of health to all of you in the mean time. Gail

I can't tell you how sorry I am. What caused the fire? You said it started in the garage; was it fuel or a propane tank you were storing in there, perhaps? Was it your furnace? Water heater? What?

Gosh, this is horrible. But you say you're going to re-build? Does that mean that not all of your home burned down, then? Or will you start all over? Is it covered by insurance? Will they pay the majority of the re-building costs, I hope?

Oh my. I'm just SOOOOOO sorry! I will remember you in my prayers. Please keep us posted.
