I can't imagine how devastated i would be as a retailer to lose everything. Insurance would step in but at what point? I would still have to make an income in the interim. Plus would they compensate $ for $? It wouldn't even cover the loss of art or if I had dependents their toys. Ugh. I'm depressing myself writing this. Over the last week I've been amazed watching the generosity and out-pouring by the comics community. My hope is that our little party CAPE 2.5 will get Lea around the folks that love her so much - her comic art community. richard@zeuscomics.com Its hard to think about the loss from a fire.

So yeah, they're insured, but they haven't really seen any money yet, and they had to fight just to be able to get a rental house and get out of the motel. The photos on her LJ are heartbreaking. Money won't replace her dead pets, all her art, her past work ... money won't heal the emotional pain felt by her two children - or anyone else in the family for that matter. I'm just a Hernandez fan, not a friend. For those who haven’t kept up with Lea’s LiveJournal, she and her family have been dealing with nasty insurance problems.
