One of our own has suffered a house fire which destroyed her home. She managed to get both her small children out which, I know, is the important thing. You can believe she is grateful for that, but, they lost everything they own. Including some pets, which is heartbreaking. She doesn't want her name used on here because of the trolls. It makes me sad, but, I understand that. But, trust me when I tell you she is a regular reader and contributer here and that you've seen pictures of her sweet children on here. It's a tough time. Anything any of you can do to help would be so appreciated. Good used clothing in the childrens size would be so great. The children are both girls. The oldest one is 4 and wears size 3T-4T and loves pink and purple and hates yellow. (That made me laugh.) The little one is two and wears a size 2T. She isn't picky yet. They both love Princess stuff, tea parties, bubbles and books. If you feel like you can help out, write to me at coldnovemberrain3x3@yahoo.com and put FIRE in the title and I will foreward you their addy. Thank you all in advance, I have the best people in the world on here and I know it.

DD ... you are a good person with a heart of gold!
Look for an email from me, Pat... thinking of our "Friend" in this trying time.
Thanks DD for letting us know.
To the member of our Dirtydisher family who survived the fire: I am so sorry for your losses and so grateful you and your children were able to get out. I can't imagine what you've been through. I wish you lots of support, kindness and compassion, expecially to your little ones. It could happen to any of us, anytime. Sending you a big hug.

I'm happy to help!
I feel terrible for this young family, but am so grateful they got out without injury.
The loss of those pets is hurting my heart. Peace to all.
O my stars, help is on the way! And I am so sorry about the pets. O my.
This is terrible news but I'm so happy the family got out safely, but very sorry that the pets didn't make it.
Hope they can find some peace soon.
Pat, presume they are they in US. I wont be able to send anything cause postage will be a nightmare from UK but maybe an e-voucher for the kids to replace some toys? What shops do that over there?
Bubble
bubble, i know walmart won't let people in the UK buy things for people in the US (i know this because a friend of mine there tried to buy my friend eddie a gift card for walmart after his fire)---unsure about other major US chains.....i think maybe amazon might be one who would do it....or even ebay......
What about a Paypal Account?
Such a sad tragedy. I will post an email to you in the morning. Bless their precious hearts. & I am sorry too for the loss and the pets lost. Sending my love.

I'm glad she and her daughters are safe.
I second the pay pal account idea.
Thank you, I'll let her know concerning the pay pal thing. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart and I know she will too. I think I have responded to everyone. I'll double check though and if anyone didn't hear back from me..re-send. My internet was spotty all day yesterday and it was so frustrating. I don't think I lost any though. You guys are awesome for real.
i'm with bubble. postage is a nightmare. maybe paypal? i think facebook also has a fund raising function.
Pat, I'll email you, if you can find out about paypal & let me know if they have one.
Cheers.
or I'll send it to you & you deposit in their US bank account, which ever gets there quicker.
So very sad and heartbreaking for the animals and their possessions, but glad the little girls are safe and sound. What a horrible thing to go through that I wouldn't wish on anyone! :(
