A Homeless Friend

If you're reading this, you know Melanie's house burned. Here's a helpful Q&A to get you in the mood to help:

Q: What happened?
A: Early Thursday morning the 6 apartment house that Melanie has lived in for the past few years burned. Read about it here: http://www.myfoxcolorado.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail?contentId=5139324&version=10&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=1.1.1

Q: Is everyone OK?
A: One tenant (not Mel) was hospitalized for smoke inhalation. He should be OK, but his dog died from the smoke. Everyone else made it out OK.

Q: Does Melanie have any good stories about escaping from her apartment in an interesting and harrowing way?
A: Yes. Yes she does, but it will cost you. Help her and she will tell you the story.

Q: Did her cat make it?
A: The cat was hiding under the bed and was retrieved just before the windows were boarded up creating a tomb.

Q: Did Melanie's books make it?
A: I don't want to talk about it.

In the next days and hours we will pester you to help Melanie. Money is best, a place to stay is 2nd with clothes and toiletries rounding up the pack.

Please help.

Thanks Miles. If there are specific items Melanie is in need of, please let us know. I'm pretty sure I can help in the money and booze department.

I have a group of people here at work that want to help. Specific items that she need would be helpful - also if you know what her clothing size is that would help too.
Thank you!
