231: Tina escaped the exploding batteries
Have you ever been awakened in the middle of the night because
something terrible was happening?
It’s definitely not a pleasant way to wake up. This happened
to a 27 year old man named Nick, and he wrote about it on social media –
I was sleeping at my girlfriend’s house last night.
Usually we pass out around midnight, but last night we didn’t get to sleep
until around 1:30 or so. It was around 3am when I woke up and swear I saw
someone’s head peeking in & staring at us through the bedroom door.
Adrenaline shot through my entire body. I went into complete fight mode - I got
up and charged towards the door, with my loyal, badass dog following right
behind me. As I ran out and looked around, I didn’t see anyone. My dog and I
probably looked around for a solid minute until I finally snapped out of it and
realized it had just been a dream. And the fact my dog wasn’t going ape shit
brought me out of it as well.
The thing is, even if it turns out to be nothing, for most
people it’s still going to be difficult to get back to sleep.
My guest today is Tina – she’s a wife, and a mother. She was
awakened in the middle of the night, and it wasn’t a false alarm. What woke her
up was an ACTUAL alarm. Tina’s house was on fire.
If you’d like to contact Tina, she’s in the WWTL Facebook
group.
