To everyone that has called,messaged and emailed offering support and help.Thankyou everyone.

We live in Labertouche right in the middle of yesterdays fire storm area.My husband,17 year old son and I stayed to do our best to protect the cats,dogs,horses and goat.Words cant describe how awful and frightening it was.
We miraculously managed to save ALL of our animals.

We saved our home,stables and cattery.
The fire reached our garden and we were putting flames out just a few feet from our house.Our paddocks are burnt out,our fences are gone.

My friends and neighbours lost their homes.

We have no power so I have taken this opportunity to thank everyone while I am at my daughter's for a shower and meal.

I know that we have been so terribly lucky to come out of this as we have.Labertouche looks like a complete disaster area.The farmer near us lost 200 cows.

Words just cant describe it.

To everyone that has prayed for us and offered help and support,again thankyou so much everyone.

Ann.

Ann.
