Auntie Em!!!!! Auntie Em!!!!

Can you say CRAZYY!!!

branches that caused our power to go off
    Yesterday was completely horrible. As the storms roll in Columbus, all you see is things flying in the air and trees swaying back and forth really hard. I'm not going to lie, I was really scared. But hear me out! Billy's neighbors started screaming everyone inside, i'm thinking there is a tornado, No there is just a HUGE fire right in the middle of the street behind Billy's apartment. We could literally see the flames over the privacy fence. This is where i freaked out, Billy was just wanting to have a day to relax and wanted to stay in bed. I did not have a clue how i was going to get him out if his apartment caught on fire (THATS HORRIBLE). To get to the point basically Billy & I was out of power from 5pm yesterday to 12 noon today. It was so hot!!! 


Aftermath
    Billy lives in a assistant living place called Creative Living. It's a really nice, independent  place for people who are handicap. Everyone who lives here are in wheelchairs. Multiple residents here use a Bipap  or Cpap at night when they sleep, Billy is one of them. Since the power was out no one was able to use them. The thing that gets me is that, you would think since it is a handicap complex, that they would have a back-up  generator for the whole place. But NO! 


   The only thing that counts is that EVERYONE was safe and everything is back to normal now. This storm caught me,well us a lesson.  We need to figure out a safe way to get Billy out of bed in an emergency. I feel horrible we haven't even talked about it. But we will have it taken care of.

   Everyone please stay safe! God Bless every one of you!
                                                                                          Talk to you all very soon!
