A Lake Charles family survived Laura's destruction. They died hours later from generator fumes.

in #vitalife4 years ago

The family had set up a generator in the garage, but the fumes later seeped through an open door and filled the home with carbon monoxide, according to authorities and relatives.

Sad article about a family that made it through hurricane Laura only to die from generator fumes. My heart goes out to the families, so sad. Hopefully, others will learn from this about the dangers of these odorless fumes and lives will be saved. And hopefully there won't be any more storms hitting that area this year, those people need a break. Prayers to the families.
