Well, it's been a hell of a return home.
My girlfriend and I made it back from our nine-month Korea military rotation safely. Unfortunately, we were greeted by standing water in half of the house and severe water damage/mold rendering it currently unlivable. By the looks of it, at least two rooms and their adjacent closets will need complete reconstruction, as well as floors and potentially walls in the hallway and master bedroom. From what we can see a pipe fitting or gasket burst above one of the closets and water has been pouring down for some time directly onto our safe. All of her sewing supplies and our firearms are destroyed beyond repair.
But, we're alive and we have each other. We're currently staying in a hotel and working with our insurance companies to see what we can do for repairs and restoration.
That said we're bound to incur costs, be it deductibles or general service & repair costs. So we're asking for help. Anything you may be willing to offer to help us through this and toward a true break after our rotation. We've set up a GoFundMe page here with a goal of $3,500 which we expect to at least cover the expected deductibles, but we're not sure yet what other incurred costs we'll have.
Below are pics from the worst of it, but there are still two other rooms with severe flood damage and a closet (adjacent to that one) that we can't even open yet.
Thank you for anything, well-wishes or otherwise.
If this isn't something appropriate to post then I apologize, we're just at wit's end trying to work through this.
