Hi everyone,
As you may or may not know, my home was in Zone A of Hurricane Ian in Fort Myers, FL. I spent 11 hours with two dogs and an elderly woman in chest high waters until being rescued at 4:00 am. I have lost everything besides 5 pairs of shorts, white jeans, and a pair of low top Jordan 11’s.

This has been a tough year for me to say the least, from rupturing my Achilles and now losing everything to the hurricane Ian.

I started dog sitting to make extra money last Sunday, but had no clue what this week would entail. He was boarding with me due to an emergency in his family. His family plans on coming to get retrieve him, but his home was not to far from mine and I assume it’s completely destroyed as well.

I don’t have a place to live and I’m currently in a shelter in Fort Myers with no power, plumbing, or hot food. I also have to care for two large dogs now with no means of transportation because my brand new car was totaled in the storm. I am working on trying to find a temporary place but every hotel is booked and airbnb. I’m down bad everyone but I’m thankful to be alive.

I honestly can’t put a numerical value on the things I lost but if anyone of you are willing to help me get my life back
in order that would be greatly appreciated. Honestly anything helps. Proceeds will be spent on housing, food, dog care, and to help me get essentials for everyday living.

Thank you from Benzo, Vader, & I.
