'Our whole lives were in it' | Mother of three picking up the pieces after fire destroys her northeast-side home

Megan Denson received some supplies from her clients at a dog grooming business in Cibolo – but she says she needs more help.

SAN ANTONIO — Luckily, Megan Denson, single mother of 3, was at work and her youngest daughter was at a birthday party when the fire erupted Sunday, October 29. The fire took place at the intersection of Mabelle Drive and North Weider Road. Now she has no choice but to start at square one, picking up pieces of her life.

“It sucks, you literally have to just scrape everything off the floor," Denson said. "I cried so hard when I came and saw it. It’s just that our whole lives were in it. Everything was in it.”

Denson received a call from her landlord as neighbors called 911. 

"The biggest issue right now is, finding another place to live and figuring out how to haul this thing off the property and where do you even take it,” she said.

No cause has been determined for the fire, but she's grateful her family is safe.

"Everything happens for a reason, and as much as this sucks," she said. "I believe this is the end of one chapter and the start of another one."
