One single mom from New Jersey has had a rough two months, with a devastating death in the family followed by more misery when her apartment complex caught fire.
Sparked by the unprecedented shortage in formula, thieves are either selling formula at hundreds of dollars per cannister or looking to steal your money and your identity.
Incredibly, everyone got out of the building with no serious injuries reported. But now, Kemesha and Keyon Williams are among more than 160 displaced residents. Some were put up by the Red Cross, with most still sheltering in temporary housing.She can't move into a new place, though, because the management company has yet to return security deposits to residents.With their building charred and water damaged, they have been searching for affordable housing.
"My mom's been contacting non-stop," Keyon said."And when she calls the office, they don't want to pick up the phone." Being without a home is compounded because Kemesha's beloved mom died unexpectedly just days before the fire. It was just the three of them living at 431 Park Avenue since Keyon was just a boy, and now, he's graduating from college."The loss of my grandmother and this, and the pressure of graduating, it's too much," he said.
