Wildfires in Los Angeles have wreaked havoc since Tuesday, forcing thousands to evacuate, destroying entire neighbourhoods, and claiming lives. One mother shared her emotional journey on Reddit after fleeing with her baby, family, and pets. Although thankful for their survival, she expressed deep sorrow over the loss of her home and belongings.
“We are one of so many families that lost their house yesterday in the Los Angeles area. We had just moved in. Our entire neighbourhood is ash and rubble. We got out just in time with our baby, family, and pets. We lost absolutely everything else,” she wrote.
