Slave Lake Wildfire Disaster

Tweet

On May 13 a wildfire sarted near Slave Lake, Alberta that within a matter of 48 hours with heavy blowing winds quickly became out of control. On May 15,2011 the Wildfire that was already deemed out of control jumped the highway and hit the town of Slave Lake. I have since re-located with my three daughters since May 15, 2011 and we are trying hard to work past the disaster that tore so many peoples lives apart. My oldest daughter turned 10 on May 16 and we did our best to give her a nice little party although for the following month we had to live out of suitcases until we found a place to relocate to as I could not find it in my heart to take my little girls back to Slave Lake after they were so frightened for their life. Guess it just goes to show that things can become very devasting in a matter of minutes and life is so short hold on to those that you love and be the best person that you can possibly be!
