Help a Brave Survivor Recover from Severe Burns

Donation protected


I woke up choking on the smoke and fire all around me . Traumatized already by a fire that took everything last year in April. I couldn’t see anything other than the flames I almost gave up I wrapped myself in a blanket like a coward and curled into a ball and started thinking about my kids…. Kyra, Tyler, Paityn and Jaxsyn as well as my step kids Kenzi, Ashlynn, Braydon, and kaeleigh I thought maybe this is the way it ends for me but I had too many unresolved conflicts in my family so I tried to find an escape. Adrenaline and fear took over as I beat and clawed at the wall with no sign of success so I ran and dove head first  at the wall where I thought there was a window  but wasn’t  and I  got horizontal when jumped and dove so I hit the wall so hard I had to regain consciousness all the while I’m choking on smoke.. I threw the blanket at the fire that I found on the floor after it got caught in my feet and tripped me because it was so smoky I couldn’t see anything  and when i threw that blanket it grabbed all the flames and took them to the floor as it was the tapestry on fire that’s what made up
The wall of flames and I could see a demons face in that inferno as it began to run from me. I grabbed the tapestry up off the floor and had that demon by the balls as it tried to run under my bed catching  it on fire like the under glow of a cool car I flipped the mattress up halfway and it fell back down because it was a California king pillow top but it was enough to grab the air in the room, spin it into a vortex and throw all the smoke right down the hallway out my door and I can see now everything was halfway clear and I could see!!! I could’ve ran right down the hallway and out the door to safety, but I seen a demon in that fire so I  beat that blazing inferno to a smolder with my bare hands… now I’m in Denver icu burn unit with 2nd & 3rd degree burns on my body. I’m asking for help because I’m the beneficiary provider for my family and I’m going to fall behind in my recovery. Hospital bill I’m sure will be a fortune. The I health center has been amazing with the care and treatment I been getting I will be in debt when I leave here and I would like more than anything to pay my hospitalization bill… the life flight was most memorable and I didn’t even get the medics name! I’m pretty much a resident here now at the burn ward and the staff, doctors, and nurses as well as the CNA have been great
