During my first year in grad school, I had a basement apartment that flooded. All of my possessions were utterly destroyed. It took several months to replace the items that I could -- but I can't help to remember the things that couldn't be replaced.

That is awful! Did you have insurance to cover everything?

Thankfully, yes!! It took several months to replace everything that I could -- but even things, so many things I just simply couldn't replace.

Yeah that is horrible. I am sorry that happened to you.
