I feel ready to share with you friend of CW what happen to me and my house at the end June beginning July, a big fire as destroyed my neighbor house.
This disaster as created lot of stress, depression and backdrop to. Myself and my wife.
My rooftop as to be redone, lot of water as came in the basement, I lost many collectables, artworks, glass and book.
They break a basement window, on the inside my Kralik showcase was put to the ground, many pieces break,:-(
Firefighters has to came inside and make lot of messes, scratches hardwood floor, carpet and trims, dent my front door.
They do their job, nobody injured but this event was a nightmare, I post few thing after, but I was very stressful at one occasion very bad with one member here, I shouldn’t came on CW at that time, I was very upset of what happen to me .
Shortly after this event, I have to go see my family doctor to get anti depressive pills.
Today I feel better, assurance settlement is almost over, roofing should be done this coming week, they came to change few windows, clean the house inside out, landscaping company will have to replace a Japanese Lilac burn.
In addition to my pain, I lost one Brother and one Sister in Quebec.
I HOPE YOU DON’T LOVE OR LIKE MY NIGHTMARE.
You friend here Alan
Regards

Alan, you are such a nice person it is truly sad to hear about your losses, I hope and pray the worst is over & you have all better days ahead. Never worry if you feel like venting on CW, we are here for you and we can handle most any comment, we all dish it out sometimes you know. You will get thru this, God bless - luv Jenni
It’s take me quite a while and guts to talk about that here, but i have to get this done for my good fellowships with collector weekly, it’s like my other family here.
Many thanks for your supporting words, I do really appreciate that,, big time,
Lata, Scott, SummerBlues and Kevin.
Lata not really matter that we don’t know each other, we part of this big community call human.
Yes Scott I agree, no one injure or died during this tragic event, material is replaceable.
SummerBlues, definitely way better then at the time, brain it’s like a big clock with complexity nerves and branching not hard to mess up when something like this happen.
Kevin, word not replace or straight out what happen, but good to hear.
To all of you thank you so much for the good thoughts
Regards
Alan
C’est comme ca la vie, un jour tu vole et le lendemain c’est de la schnoutte. Tu sais que les beaux jours reviendrons et c’est important de savoir que tu as des amis qui te supporte et qui t’encourage. Hang in there, mon ami!
Ah Jenny you bring tear in my eyes, you such a kind member here, I do appreciate to know you, you know how to say the right thing.
For sure I hope the worsts is in the back trunk, thing start to straighten up for the catastrophic event.
It’s more difficult for my Brother and Sister lost, I do lot of meditations thinking about the good time we have togethers before moving to Ontario in 2005, after I move I visit many time, last summer and this year I didn’t go and this kind of press in my back right now, I feel kinda guilty about this.
Hope it all end well soon.
Merçi bien Bob pour ses mots de réconfort, bien apprécié.
Vraie qu’une journée toute est rose et soudainement tous apparais noir.
Et bien oui j’entrevois la lumière à l’autre bout du tunnel.
Sincerely Alan
Alan, I’m sorry for the loss of your brother and sister. That is heartbreaking. I hope things start to get better for you. Fires are devastating, glad you and your wife were not hurt. I will pray that you find some peace and comfort through all of this.
my heart goes out to you Alan! if it's any comfort at all, it will just be a small memory at some point in the future.
Oh Alan, I am so sad for you.
We are always here, happy to hear from you.
Such sadness. I live in a house built in 1921 and it has 1921 wiring. I live in dread of this happening to me. May your future be bright.
I know what it is like . Went though a tornado that hit my property. Just take one day at a time . Yes it’s not easy to get though it .
My heart goes out to you and your family! Prays for everyone that it affected.

Oh dear me, how terrible for you, Alan... :( Keep strong. x
Alan, I'm a new member but I quickly learned to watch for your posts and to appreciate the input you gave on other members' posts. Your items are always interesting and special so I cannot imagine your sense of loss. And even more devastating- the loss of your siblings- how tragic!
I wish you the best as you try to get thru this very awful time.
Oh Alan, I am so sorry to hear this news! If I had a magic remedy to make all this go away for you both I would give it to you. And not to lighten anything but it certainly seems a lot of bad things have been happening to so many people these last few months! I feel for you and your wife. Sending you good vibes for a speedy recovery. One thing I believe I know about you, you will come back stronger than before. Much love to you Alan!

Yes, start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Alan

Michael, thank you so much for your prayer, they reach me in my heart, bring some tear in my eyes.
Very much appreciated my friend.
Alan
I am so sorry for your loss. Not so long ago I had a shelf collapse. It held most of my prized pieces. I was very sad, but, as my grandmother always said: More was lost in the war! In the end, most of these items can be replaced. What is truly a tragedy is the loss of your siblings. That is irreplaceable.
Gudrun

Alan I don't know you well but this must have been an awful experience. Please except my condolences on the lose of you sister and brother and hope things start getting better for you and your family.
My heart and prays go out to you.

I just found out about the loss you experienced.I'm so sorry to hear that.I believe that the friendship and good vibes you bestowed upon the others( and me among them) will be returned to you redoubled and help you to recover.
I will write in spanish because is difficult to explain the feeling about this. La sensación de inestabilidad en este mundo nos lo recuerda la naturaleza a cada hora. Es decepcionante saber que algo tan querido como esas colecciones de Kralik que tristeza infinita. Hope you can go through this
Alan, I am so very sorry to hear about the tough time you are going through, and the loss of your brother and sister. My thoughts are with you and your wife. It was brave of you to write this post, and I wish you all the best. Take care, Michelle
