One afternoon, I was sitting on the balcony of my condo. It was a hot sunny day and I was enjoying the breeze blowing off the lake. I was looking down towards the street below and enjoying some good music, I was in a cheerful mood. I didn’t notice that my reading lamp was left on because it was under my bed sheets. The mattress caught fire and I was not aware of it. It was my neighbor who yelled down to me from the balcony above to say that he smelled smoke. But, by that time, it was too late. My condo was on fire. I was fortunate that I got out of there by climbing down the building’s rickety fire escape. Luckily there were no injuries.

The Firefighters said that I would not be going back home any time soon. And they informed me that the damage to my condo building could amount to millions of dollars. I was very fortunate that I contacted A-Emergency Fire Board-Up in Chicago because they came right away while the Firemen were still on the scene to secure the building. They were great. I was able to concentrate on getting my life back and didn’t have to worry about people gaining access to my place while I was living off site. These guys are good and very conscientious about the work they do. The bill was sent directly to my insurance company.
