Daniel is one grateful man when his daughter Jaime Bauder was at the right place at his apartment home in Lansford Pennsylvania on Friday night when his roommate who has to use a wheelchair to get around. Daniel went outside of the apartment to smoke a cigarette when his unit caught fire. Jamie was inside the burning unit when she took action to get the woman who uses a wheelchair to get around by carrying her from the second floor to the first floor of the apartment and out of the apartment in time since the smoke inside of the unit was ready to overcome them fast. After the American Fire Company of Lansford were contacted about the fire, the firefighters were able to put out the fire. The damage of the apartment unit was severe enough that Daniel, his roommate and his daughter and his grandson are living with family at this time. Daniel is thankful that Jamie was home at the time of the fire since she was planning to leave with her son a few minutes later before the fire started. The other residents of the apartment are able to return to their units since the damage to their units was minimal.

That is one scary moment for the woman on the wheelchair. It is really fortunate that she had a companion to save her.

That is true since according to Daniel, his roommate and himself would have perished from the fire likely from smoke inhalation.

@Deepizzaguy so you mean if the daughter was not there that even Daniel would be burned? That is scary to think that they would be needing a young person to live with them.

@Alexandoy The most likely event would have been that Daniel would have perished from smoke inhalation if he had attempted to rescue his roommate since the room was filled with thick smoke since his daughter was able to save his roommate before the fire got out of control.

The woman in the wheelchair was very lucky that Jamie was able to carry her.

You are correct since carrying a person down from a second floor unit to the first floor takes a lot of strength.

@Deepizzaguy His daughter reacted quickly and saved not only the woman but herself as well. I did not know about the grandson. I am glad they were safe afterwards. So sorry about the apartment. It worked out and so glad that Jamie did not leave yet. I am sorry they could not return but glad others could and only had minimal damage.
