Subject: Burn victims' family Author: Dina [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:20:49 04/10/03 Thu Approximately 1 week ago a very unfortunate accident occured to a family in Dallas, TX. The family included the father, mother, and 4 children. The father was in the process of repairing the wooden floor in the home. While sanding the floor fumes were emitted. This sparked a fire. The father was immediately consumed in flames. He ran from the living room into the bathroom. The mother was in the bathroom at that time. She was burned as well. The father died at the scene. The mother was rushed to the hospital and passed away approximately 4 days later. The children have lost both parents. They are currently staying with their aunt. The aunt lives next door to their original home. The children see the burned house and furniture every day. The aunt and uncle are very young (mid 20's). They have 2 children of their own. They live in a 2 bedroom frame house. How long will this last? Will the government take the children away? Where can they go for help? Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
