According to an earlier article:
A teddy bear drive to help with the families healing has been setup by former WAVE 3 News Troubleshooter Charla Young's charity, Charla's Angels, and WAVE 3 News.__________
Some of the bears collected will be taken to Indianapolis to send hope and love to little Taty'ana. The rest of the bears will be donated in memory of the three children to a New Albany elementary school where one of the children attended.
If you would like to help you can drop off any new teddy bear in the drop box outside of the WAVE 3 News, located at 725 S. Floyd Street between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
On the night of the fire, neighbors said they were unable to get inside of the home to save the children, but firefighters were able to run through the back of the house and rescue a fourth sibling, Taty'ana, 5.
Taty'ana, who suffered third-degree burns on 20 percent of her body, was rushed to Riley's Hospital for Children in Indianapolis and put in a medical coma. On January 6, her lungs had cleared.
According to the children's grandmother, Marie Hughes Clark, Taty'ana lost three toes as a result of the fire. As of January 13 WAVE 3 News was told she was doing much better, but could not talk because of a breathing tube.
