NORTH FORT MYERS, Fla. (WINK) \u2014 A family of four lost everything in a trailer fire on Pondella Street, escaping with only the clothes on their backs.<\/p>\n
Anyury Fernandez said her sons were asleep as smoke filled their home.<\/p>\n
She said they didn’t have a chance to do anything except leave their home barefoot before flames engulfed their trailer. One of her teens ran into the mechanic shop they lived behind, asking for help.<\/p>\n
Firefighters rushed to put out the flames, but what’s left is a reminder of what they once had.<\/p>\n
She said it’s the worst experience of her life. She had to buy shoes for her kids and all she had were the clothes she wore to work.<\/p>\n
The family is staying in a hotel thanks to the Red Cross. Fernandez said she’s thankful her sons are okay.<\/p>\n
