Can you believe I heard this after our fire in which we lost everything?? I suppose it could. My husband and son survived. We were all okay. A couple weeks later there was a fire in which 2 of the 4 children died, so yeah, that was pretty bad. But 8 of my 10 cats died and 2 were gone and I felt as if my whole world had just collapsed, so... I don't know. Things can always be worse, yeah, but I think when you're going through something, things are bad enough as they are, and it's hard to deal with as it is. I think about the parents who lost their kids in their fire; and I know it has to be so hard for them, but that's their loss, their struggle. I can only deal with my own, and I'm still trying to pick myself up off the floor.
