Grandma's Fire

 We were able to go look at Grandma's house today and see all of the damage that was done by the fire that happened yesterday while she was at the gym.  Almost everything will have to be replaced.  She won't be able to live in it for several months.  Brady and I had just barely been over there the day before and saw her brand-new carpet, and I think she finally was feeling at home there.  It's horrible that this happened to her, especially after all her hard work the past year on it.  She is trying to be optimistic, but remember her in your prayers!  Any ideas of what we can do for her?
This is looking down her hallway.  You can't even get into the bedrooms.
Her furnace was in a small crawl space beneath the floor.  Now, there's no floor!
The firemen broke through the big glass windows in the front.  Look at the big pile of glass.
This is a hole from the outside that goes into the guest bedroom.  I couldn't get a picture of it from here, but the room is filled with piles of insulation.
This is her TV stand.  There was a piece of paper on it, so you can see that smoke is covering everything, even things on the other end of the house.
Even the mirror looked smoky.
