I lost my home and everything I own in the Palisades Fire – AMA

r/

I saw the smoke less than 15 minutes after it started and fortunately got myself and family out early. The media wasn’t correctly reporting what was actually transpiring due to lack of information and nowhere have I seen any of the first hand experiences recounted…there are some wild ones.

    When you were like: “Shit, I need to get ‘this’ out of the house. Quickly.” What was it? And did you manage to save it?

    Where did you go to seek refuge?

    How was your thinking process? Like when did you go from numb into action? And how did that feel in the moment?

    That is devastating. I’m sorry you had to go through that. How are you really doing?

    Did your insurance cover everything? Are you planning to rebuild? If so how would you rebuild, the same or different? Do you feel any catharsis, now that you’ve had a couple months to reflect on the events?

    Do you plan on rebuilding there or selling and moving somewhere else?

    Did you have insurance on your home? Do you hope you can recover the value of your home
