If I would have laid down, I probably would not have woken up the next day. Very, very
scary. To know that I was about an inch away from death. APX (Vivint) saved my life. Well
I was planning to go to the park to play some pool. Then I got hungry so I decided to get
some French fries. I got the skillet hot, and dropped the French fries in and I guess
this made the water get really, really hot. All of a sudden there was a lot of smoke.
So I got out here and the further I got the worse the smoke got. When I got to the kitchen
the grease was on fire. The microwave, the stove, everything was on fire. I tried to
put it out, but I couldn’t. So I ran across the street and got my aunt. All I could see
was just a bunch of black smoke. I didn’t know how bad it was. My first thing was to
find her and get her out. We ran back in there and tried to put it out with salt and flour.
I didn’t know if the house was going to burn down. We couldn’t get it out so we
moved it over to the sink. The fire just started going up in flames. That caught the baseboard,
the windows, and the curtains on fire. So she ran over here and pressed the alarm system
on the APX (Vivint). They responded and we told them it was a fire and in about two minutes,
before we could even get off the phone with them, the firefighters, the ambulance, everyone
was here. I want to say that APX (Vivint) is truly an asset to me. Because without them
I don’t think I would have my granddaughter still. Now, having APX (Vivint) in the house
and knowing my grandmother is safe. I feel more relaxed. I am able to concentrate more
on my writing. I’m able to think about what it is that I want to write. It just flows
in my mind because my mind is off of whether my grandfather and grandmother are safe. My
house is still standing and my granddaughter, even though she spent time in ICU, is still
here. Her voice is not all the way back, and she has a beautiful voice. She sings. With
the APX (Vivint) system I feel a little more secure…a lot more secure. Knowing that with
this system, help is just seconds or minutes away. For the dimes I have paid, it has rewarded
me with dollars. Like I said it made it a lot better that the alarm system was here.
I am happy with it. I love this system! At least I know that when I get home, my grandmother
is going to be just the way she was when I left her. She’s safe and secure. I’m happy.
