After losing her home to a blaze earlier this week, the woman has nowhere to turn and is in desperate need of help.

The 30-year-old woman, who is eight months pregnant, sobbed as she was stretchered away from the house and treated for smoke inhalation.

The family of four is now homeless and living temporarily in a motel thanks to the help of the Red Cross.

They lost all their possessions.

Firefighters have gone through the fire’s ashes and tried to recover whatever they can for Taylor’s family.

Lauderhill Fire Rescue is collecting clothes, diapers and other items for the family.

Capt. Jerry Gonzalez  is asking anyone interested in helping the family to call 954-628-5824.
