This video is heartbreaking, gave me goosebumps! To all the people affected once again I sent out my prayers and postive energy that you'll get the help you need. For everyone traveling this long weekend be very careful out there with your smokes and fires.

Sending an Angel to Watch of the People of Slave Lake - to help them thru these terrible times.

At a loss for words really, except to say we are sending out prayers and project positively for everyone affected. My heart goes out to all. I have been affected by fire 2x, not anything like what you've experienced, but scary and devastating all the same and I know a little about what you and especially your children will go thru. I pray that can they & you can sleep peacefully and that you can all survive this tragedy. To all the moms, dads, grandmas & grandpas, aunts & uncle, brothers & sisters, family, fire fighters, emergency workers, this Angel is to watch over you, guide you and protect thru these EXTREMELY trying times.

Sending LOTS of LOVE!!! 

Tina & Angel
