I understand how hard this is, especially with all that you're grieving. You've helped me survive some of my darkest days, this is the least I can do to help. Keep heart, thank you.
Since you’re a solo female traveler living out of your truck, I would highly recommend getting a 24 hr surveillance car/dash cam. It won’t stop it from happening but at least you’ll have something to give police and maybe catch a license plate They make 360 ones
Maria, I'm a silent watcher n don't normally donate as I can't really afford to, but how could I not, I have admired u 4 soo long, u are a beautiful free spirit & have a loving nature, it totally broke me seeing what happened, I know u were devastated at losing all the footage on film, but a little consolation that u do have, is on UA-cam, as with many others here, I too have been broken into not once but twice, so I upped my security, I hope u can get some kind of security that can notify u on ur mobile should it happen again (but hopefully that won't ever happen again...) "Blue" will always be in your heart n no-one can ever take that away from u... Much love 💙 to U n Taz... Tina from Australia 🇦🇺 x
So sorry for your loss. Money and possessions are all replaceable...the memories are still yours, but it breaks my heart that you lost footage and keepsakes of Blue. Unfortunately...some people suck. Hang in there!
Place an ad in the towns' newspaper asking that they return Blue's items. No questions asked. State that he died and you want his memory sticks back. Use a P.O. Box at your parent's town. So they can check it for you. Maybe someone will return it to you. It's worth a try. I am so sorry you were ripped off. I had my car stolen years ago and that was traumatic. Plus my mom's house burned down 2 weeks after she died so I never got any personal items of hers. Luckily my sister and I had taken the photo albums months before from her house. Thinking of you. Get one of those door alarms that sound off when the door is jingled. Also Beware of Dog signs help. Sending love.

So sorry, people have no respect for the 10 commandments. I Also had priceless items stolen from my van when in a hotel parking lot, even though it ment nothing to the thief. Don’t kick yourself about the insurance, they would have found a way not to pay anyway and you would be that much more behind for paying the premiums. They didn’t take the passport because it has your picture, but your birth certificate is worrisome. You might want to monitor your credit reports. Sorry people are so awful!

It happens, the best revenge is a life well lived. I've had my life in the vehicle more than once. Anything could happen at any time. We can only learn as we go and do what is practical. Nobody gets through this life unscathed. Live in the present, it all we have.
I am SO sorry you had to go through that.. it hurts my heart that there are super crummy people out there that do this. I wish I could give you more ❤️

I do hope some good will come out of this somehow eventhough it may not look and sound like it right now. Please stay strong and positive. Hugs from Malaysia
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I also haven't kept with you recently and just learned about Blu... It's devastating.. I hope this little contribution helps.
😢 I am so so sorry to hear of that. I am a big animal lover. I did not know your dog passed. I must have missed that on your videos and that breaks my heart. I know how much your pup meant to you. May your furry friend rest in peace and I hope you recover and don't let this discourage you. You are an inspiration to many 💯🙏

Hey Ria! @roamingreckless I hope you see this. Please please please take a few days and go to pawn shops around the area, or any area with many pawn shops. You might have to drive all over NJ. I am from NJ and when I lived in Long Branch, my apartment was broken into and all my jewelry was stolen, including my mother’s favorite ring. I was devastated. Someone gave me the advice to look in pawn shops. On the 3rd pawn shop I went to in Long branch (Shelly’s Jewelers), I found some of my stuff. Unfortunately never found everything but was able to find a few sentimental items. Also, criminals are stupid. After calling the cops and cops speaking to Shelly, she said she knows who she bought the jewelry from and he had left his watch there for repair. When the store called him to pick up the watch, the police arrested him and he was put in jail. Do some leg work, have faith, and stay calm. I’m so sorry this happened to you. ❤

omg girl im so sorry!!! I just discovered your channel today and I just fell in love with your baby. I lost a dog to lymphoma and its so hard you never forget them. I'm praying for you because Ive lost video and pictures of all my dogs through the years but you know a fire could happen something that could take every single picture and video from you but he is in your heart and memory forever! Its so horrible people are so low like this. I'm just crying my eyes out for you right now 😢I'm just in shock but you will always have him in your heart and mind. Sending you love ❤ hugs and prayers!
You missed the mark when you said this was your fault, but you nailed it when you said hindsight is 20/20. Sure, in hindsight it's easy to see things you could have done differently, and from a growth mindset perspective you can learn from that, but make no mistake about whose fault this is: this is 100% the fault of whoever intentionally broke in and took your stuff. It was not an accident; it was a crime.
Well said! Maia was in the wrong place at the wrong time, she certainly didn't deserve this and it wasn't her fault. Those who stole are 100% to blame and they will face justice
As a person who's made mistakes and also stole.. I feel very bad for you. And videos like this help me remember why you don't steal. I'm so sorry you are going through this and I hope that you come out on top.
I hope this helps even a little bit! This still really pisses me off!! I can’t stand a thief!! Just remember, God doesn’t give you any more than you can handle! Sometimes when I am tested to my limits, I tell God please no more, I can bench press a Buick right now! Yes, I joke with God! But with me, it’s either I laugh or cry and I don’t like crying! You are stronger than you know! We believe in you, love you and Taz, and I pray for both of you!! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🐶🐶
God doesn't harm, what He does do is give us the strength to get through anything because we give our lives to Him. God bless you and God bless Maria. Continue praying 🙏
@@Mxxjzzwe do help the homeless! Judging those who give, when you don't know us....kindness has no boundaries and giving is far better then receiving......
So Sorry to hear this and hope they get caught red handed. There are ways for you and your father to put in a quiet security system. Blu is in all our hearts and minds forever. Ohhh ok and you too.
*Edit* I know this is a long shot but maybe you could reach out to the local news and see if they could go a report saying all you want back is the hard drives cause it was your dog. Maybe something will come of it I’m not sure. I’m so sorry this happened but I’m glad you guys are safe!

@@cheefnanook I gave it a thought about being a "staged" event. I don't Maria personally, but I feel confident that this really happened. Anyway, I Really Enjoy watching her vlogs, so I wanted to donate to her anyway. She's well worth it! Keep Smiling Maria! 😊
@@cheefnanook dude that’s a low blow. As someone who has personally got 4k worth of fly rods, reels, and boxes of flies stolen while I was eating at a restaurant it sucks. My policy only covered up to $400 and then they wanted receipts of everything taken..
it’s honestly such a blessing and privilege that you had the funds to be able to go buy a new camera and fridge right after this happen. celebrating that for you!
Unfortunately I know the feeling, my wife and I had over $5000 worth of stuff taken after they broke into our suv at noon on Christmas Day in downtown Portland. We had just arrived and drove downtown for lunch and that’s when it happened. The cops basically said it happens all the time and they’ll probably never catch the tweakers. I feel your pain. I hope this helps and I hope this doesn’t discourage you from continuing your 50 state road trip. Love your videos and you just keep being you! Time will never let you forget Blue but time will let you forget this.
Chipping in to replace a little item. I know it's not a lot but knowing the feeling after this happens is awful. My husband and I love you! Please, take care and be safe ❤️
Nobody can steal your memories of Blue, you had fabulous years with him, and we were lucky enough to share the experiences you had together, we treasure those memories 💯❤
Made me cry when you realized all the footage of Blue that was lost… heartbreaking and devastating!! 😢 I’ve been robbed before and so I totally get it! My home was robbed and they literally burned cigarette holes into my bra! 😳 I couldn’t sleep for awhile! Keeping you and Taz in my thoughts and prayers!!! We love you guys!!! ❤
@@lovespurpleflowers yeah but I’m sure she got the idea… when you are burglarized, you still feel directly involved and exposed… it will take time for her as it did for me.
I literally crying about blue too. I just lost my yorkie of 16 years two months ago and I miss him everyday. I need to back up by pics and vids so bad. I feel for her so much 😔
Just started following you a couple weeks ago. As a parent and retired Police Officer, stay very connected to your parents for the next week or so, I know you are a big girl, but I can assure you that your father is worried sick right now. He seems like he would give just about anything for this to all go away. Grieve for this, learn from this - but above all stay the course. Oh, and tell your Dad you love him just one more time today.
Sending you love. You are courageous. Thank you for being you. You sharing this misfortune gave your viewers an opportunity to show love and support. There's more light than dark out there. And you are protected! ❤❤❤
Maria I am so sorry 😣 You are such a strong woman and have turned your perception around already (not poor me victim but OUR creator has a plan). I know you’re on the east coast and want you to know my door/property is available if you need a place to park 🙏🏻 Love you, Bubby, & Taz.
Can I just say this, my 15 year old daughter has a dog that has been a God send for her mental health and well-being. I got her a puppy after seeing the connection you shared with your beautiful dog Blue. Photos and footage are precious, but the connection can never be truly lost. Thank you, and after working through all the emotions, please remember that you have positively changed the life of one young lady in New Zealand without even knowing it.
Very sorry you're going through this. Thieves are absolute scum of the Earth. Also, my mother's 13 year old dog, Chulo (with whom I was very close) was recently put to sleep due to sickness. I considered him my brother, so I know exactly how you're feeling. Btw, if you're still around NYC, B&H Photo in Manhattan is a good place for any tech goods you may need.
I hope she left that area. There is too much going on with the illegals and gangs there. Hoperfully, she went somewhere safer, as she will have a lot to do now. I read they just evicted with an 60-day notice 40,000 illegals from the NY area (I can't remember which city they stated). This means no more FREE ride in the U.S.
Maria I am very sorry that that happened to you so I just wanted to give you a little something I know it's not much but I know you're the type of person that would greatly appreciate it and I sincerely hope that you get your backups back with all your footage of blue on it not going to lie I teared up when you started to cry and there is nothing wrong with that by the way I've enjoyed the footage with blue over the time I've been watching you so again it's not much but it's a little something to help you recoup your loss and may the idiots that did this to you have Instant Karma much love Maria thank you for all your videos
The old Defender is one of the most unsecure vehicles anyone might drive. You minimally need, window locks, door dead locks, an ignition isolator, and an alarm system, and I'd suggest a structural safe.
Any cars remarkably insecure. The things you mentioned would have prevented the truck from being driven off and given it's not like a Tesla or Porsche or something I think there's a little chance of that. So the suggestion would have done nothing to prevent the theft of the items inside the truck
I just started watching you like two weeks ago and I’m so so sorry that you lost all your pictures and videos of Blue. I can’t imagine what you are going through still to this day. At times like these I don’t even know what to say, but stay strong, you got this!
I just watched my first video of yours last night of when you were traveling thru Alaska with Blue. I was obsessed with how cute and sweet he was. Now I'm seeing that he died. I'm literally in tears. I'm so sorry you don't deserve any of this.
The taking of your birth certificate would make me think they will try to open credit in your name. If you haven't done it already, freeze or lock your credit with the 3 credit reporting agencies. People are horrible. ☹️
Came here to say this!! Dealing with this currently from someone who hacked into my incarcerated brothers accounts, wrote themselves checks from my brother's accounts, and tried to open credit cards in his name. It's good you filed a police report - keep the case number handy and call any banking institutions you use that may have had account info accessed (routing numbers, check books), call the big credit companies and have them freeze your credit, and keep in touch with the police department in the jurisdiction where this happened! Weekly if possible, they may have updates with newly found footage or reports of your items being resold online or in pawn shops. Also on that note, call local pawn shops in the area and notify them what items were stolen from you so that they will be aware if they see those items come into their stores. I'm so sorry this happened, and I'm so sorry you had to go through losing Blue again. I lost my soul cat to cancer February 29th this year and the grief is still so fresh. I still lose my composure every few days. I can't imagine losing the photos and videos I have of him. I pray that your grief can eventually soften and that you'll at least get your memories of him back somehow ❤
Yes, alert the credit companies. I had my identity stolen, and it's tough to prove that you didn't open those accounts or give anyone permission to do so. I was the victim, but I got treated like I was the one who did the crime.🙄
Hi Maria, so sorry to hear about your break-in and loss...I wouldn't blame you if you took a little time off and recuperate. I'm sure your subs would eagerly await your return.
I’m SO sorry Ria! LOCK YOUR CREDIT and get notifications from the 3 credit bureaus. With birth certificate they can get ID’s and try to get loans, duplicate credit cards ,etc. Losing Blue’s footage made me cry too. Horrible people out there. 😡😢❤️ You’re strong. It will take a bit but you’ll bounce back. Blue is always with you. He is love now. ❤
Dang. That loss on top of your grief is brutal. Former Aussie mom here. I am so impressed with the progress you’re making with Taz. I’m glad you have family support.
I have followed you for several years now. So sad to hear all about this. Please take this gift and use it to help get back some of the stuff they took. 🙏🏼
@ForkInTheRoad33 right that's what I'm saying, she does a video so dumb people can feel sorry and sad for her and send her a lot of money, listen to the dumb crap they supposably stole books ,dogs collar, tampons, I had my home get broken into and I didn't feel the need to let the world know, and why is she laughing I know cause she is looking at her account and all that money coming in....
I feel so sorry for you. Through your videos I understood how bonded you and Blue were. I lost my dog of 17 1/2 years this summer. I'm devastated. So I really understand your loss. I pray somehow you get your hard drive back. I can't think of anything worse than to have something so personal and irreplaceable taken. I am praying for you.
Hey maria, i was heartbroken for you seeing the live and waited for this video. I wish i could donate to you, im disabled and on a very small fixed income, but your love for blu and your new baby is so familiar to me, you brighten my day. I hope you keep on keepin on, cuz you are an old soul and your star shines. God bless you and stay safe.
I’m so sorry you have gone through this people c An be absolutely sickening. But my heart truly breaks for you with the loss of footage of your pups, camera gear is huge money but can be replaced but your priceless memories is heart breaking
As someone else in the comment section pointed out, a Tesla was parked right in front of your vehicle, which could mean the thieves might have activated its Sentry Mode that records activity around the car.
This!
I hope you're right. Thank you for pointing out.
lol did you guys hear about the Tesla that got towed away as "evidence" by cops, as it was parked in front of where murder had happened?
there are 2 teslas , black one next to the white one
Oh good eye!!!

Why do you think she made this video? The shocking title name will boost in the algorithm, and she knows that.
Girl not me absolutely sobbing for you. I wish I could give more, but thank you for sharing your life with us!
Gosh, same cried like a baby watching this 😢
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I also haven't kept with you recently and just learned about Blu... It's devastating.. I hope this little contribution helps.
God bless you ❤
Best wishes and thanks for all the entertainment over the years!
😢 I am so so sorry to hear of that. I am a big animal lover. I did not know your dog passed. I must have missed that on your videos and that breaks my heart. I know how much your pup meant to you. May your furry friend rest in peace and I hope you recover and don't let this discourage you. You are an inspiration to many 💯🙏
This sucks and sometimes people suck. A lot. I can't live without this channel so I hope this helps!
@@jeffreyburwell2773 quit giving her donations.. this is clearly a lie as she is supposedly coincidentally been robbed two other times on this channel.. she realized how many donations she got the first time, and concocted a story can you SIMPS FELL FOR IT
Not trying to be that guy... but not everything you see online is real. Especially these days.
If you look at her videos.. her views were dropping more and more. Could all be staged because she's starving for the 1M+ views checks and apparently all of your donation money your flooding her with.
Just being a realist.. 🤷♂️ imagine how upset you'll be if this definitely is false news. 😅
Just… sadness. Totally cruel and undeserved. We are all with you ❤
Hey Ria! @roamingreckless I hope you see this. Please please please take a few days and go to pawn shops around the area, or any area with many pawn shops. You might have to drive all over NJ. I am from NJ and when I lived in Long Branch, my apartment was broken into and all my jewelry was stolen, including my mother’s favorite ring. I was devastated. Someone gave me the advice to look in pawn shops. On the 3rd pawn shop I went to in Long branch (Shelly’s Jewelers), I found some of my stuff. Unfortunately never found everything but was able to find a few sentimental items. Also, criminals are stupid. After calling the cops and cops speaking to Shelly, she said she knows who she bought the jewelry from and he had left his watch there for repair. When the store called him to pick up the watch, the police arrested him and he was put in jail. Do some leg work, have faith, and stay calm. I’m so sorry this happened to you. ❤
Great tip. I would not have thought of that.
My prayers go out to you❤ I feel so bad what happened to you😢,please consider on getting insurance through (state farm rv insurance asap when you rebuild your stolen electronics

omg girl im so sorry!!! I just discovered your channel today and I just fell in love with your baby. I lost a dog to lymphoma and its so hard you never forget them. I'm praying for you because Ive lost video and pictures of all my dogs through the years but you know a fire could happen something that could take every single picture and video from you but he is in your heart and memory forever! Its so horrible people are so low like this. I'm just crying my eyes out for you right now 😢I'm just in shock but you will always have him in your heart and mind. Sending you love ❤ hugs and prayers!
You missed the mark when you said this was your fault, but you nailed it when you said hindsight is 20/20. Sure, in hindsight it's easy to see things you could have done differently, and from a growth mindset perspective you can learn from that, but make no mistake about whose fault this is: this is 100% the fault of whoever intentionally broke in and took your stuff. It was not an accident; it was a crime.
I couldn't have said better myself
Well said! Maia was in the wrong place at the wrong time, she certainly didn't deserve this and it wasn't her fault. Those who stole are 100% to blame and they will face justice
Theft or any other crime is not the victim's fault! I'm so sorry. This happened to me in Denver.
Very well said!
100%, you can’t blame yourself for terrible people’s actions.
I don't normally give this much. You are one of my favorite UA-camrs. I want to help out.😢
God bless you bro that's so nice of you
God bless you and your big heart❤
@@MindfulObserversthey don't. ....they spend a life addicted to drugs and will never have peace
God bless ur heart❤❤
@@traci635 Only when they croak.
As a person who's made mistakes and also stole.. I feel very bad for you. And videos like this help me remember why you don't steal. I'm so sorry you are going through this and I hope that you come out on top.
Thanks! so glad you have your UA-cam videos as a particle backup of Blu. Best Wishes.
I hope this helps even a little bit! This still really pisses me off!! I can’t stand a thief!! Just remember, God doesn’t give you any more than you can handle! Sometimes when I am tested to my limits, I tell God please no more, I can bench press a Buick right now! Yes, I joke with God! But with me, it’s either I laugh or cry and I don’t like crying! You are stronger than you know! We believe in you, love you and Taz, and I pray for both of you!! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🐶🐶
God doesn't harm, what He does do is give us the strength to get through anything because we give our lives to Him. God bless you and God bless Maria. Continue praying 🙏
So true
@@Mxxjzzwe do help the homeless! Judging those who give, when you don't know us....kindness has no boundaries and giving is far better then receiving......
You are amazing!❤
So Sorry to hear this and hope they get caught red handed. There are ways for you and your father to put in a quiet security system. Blu is in all our hearts and minds forever. Ohhh ok and you too.
Hope this helps, thank you for the content you post. Best of luck!
Angels are real
*Edit*
I know this is a long shot but maybe you could reach out to the local news and see if they could go a report saying all you want back is the hard drives cause it was your dog. Maybe something will come of it I’m not sure.
I’m so sorry this happened but I’m glad you guys are safe!
God bless you ❤
So Sorry this happened to you. I Love watching your vlogs. Keep the Faith and You will Shine ON greater than you'll ever know! ❤💪
God bless you ❤

@@cheefnanook I gave it a thought about being a "staged" event. I don't Maria personally, but I feel confident that this really happened. Anyway, I Really Enjoy watching her vlogs, so I wanted to donate to her anyway. She's well worth it! Keep Smiling Maria! 😊
@@cheefnanook dude that’s a low blow. As someone who has personally got 4k worth of fly rods, reels, and boxes of flies stolen while I was eating at a restaurant it sucks. My policy only covered up to $400 and then they wanted receipts of everything taken..
I just lost my boy Beau to cancer and what you lost with your memories of your doggo truly broke my heart 😭
it’s honestly such a blessing and privilege that you had the funds to be able to go buy a new camera and fridge right after this happen. celebrating that for you!
The chat donations helped. $50-100 a pop is pretty good.
It’s because people throw money at her
Unfortunately I know the feeling, my wife and I had over $5000 worth of stuff taken after they broke into our suv at noon on Christmas Day in downtown Portland. We had just arrived and drove downtown for lunch and that’s when it happened. The cops basically said it happens all the time and they’ll probably never catch the tweakers. I feel your pain. I hope this helps and I hope this doesn’t discourage you from continuing your 50 state road trip. Love your videos and you just keep being you! Time will never let you forget Blue but time will let you forget this.
I just drove to washington plan to visit Portland thanks for heads up
@@Marfmellow88 I do donate to my local animal shelter and I donate my time also
@@Marfmellow88 Stop trying to tell people what to do with their money. What a sad person you are.
@@Marfmellow88 maybe mind ur own business and let someone spend their money how they want?
Never trust Portland..
I’m so sorry Maria, wish I could help you more. ❤
Chipping in to replace a little item. I know it's not a lot but knowing the feeling after this happens is awful. My husband and I love you! Please, take care and be safe ❤️
God bless you ❤ everything thing helps Maria
Thanks!
God bless you ❤
So sorry to hear about Po. 😢
Nobody can steal your memories of Blue, you had fabulous years with him, and we were lucky enough to share the experiences you had together, we treasure those memories 💯❤
I'm so sorry. You'll get through this.
Made me cry when you realized all the footage of Blue that was lost… heartbreaking and devastating!! 😢 I’ve been robbed before and so I totally get it! My home was robbed and they literally burned cigarette holes into my bra! 😳 I couldn’t sleep for awhile! Keeping you and Taz in my thoughts and prayers!!! We love you guys!!! ❤
Sure wish I could give more! 🥺
God bless you ❤
Robbed is when you are directly involved, burglarized is when you are not there!❤
@@lovespurpleflowers yeah but I’m sure she got the idea… when you are burglarized, you still feel directly involved and exposed… it will take time for her as it did for me.
I literally crying about blue too. I just lost my yorkie of 16 years two months ago and I miss him everyday. I need to back up by pics and vids so bad. I feel for her so much 😔
Just started following you a couple weeks ago. As a parent and retired Police Officer, stay very connected to your parents for the next week or so, I know you are a big girl, but I can assure you that your father is worried sick right now. He seems like he would give just about anything for this to all go away. Grieve for this, learn from this - but above all stay the course. Oh, and tell your Dad you love him just one more time today.
Sending you love. You are courageous. Thank you for being you. You sharing this misfortune gave your viewers an opportunity to show love and support. There's more light than dark out there. And you are protected! ❤❤❤
So sorry this happened to you, the world can definitely be cruel but kindness and love always prevails.Keep your head up.Hope this helps.-Abel
Maria I am so sorry 😣
You are such a strong woman and have turned your perception around already (not poor me victim but OUR creator has a plan).
I know you’re on the east coast and want you to know my door/property is available if you need a place to park 🙏🏻
Love you, Bubby, & Taz.
Can I just say this, my 15 year old daughter has a dog that has been a God send for her mental health and well-being. I got her a puppy after seeing the connection you shared with your beautiful dog Blue.
Photos and footage are precious, but the connection can never be truly lost.
Thank you, and after working through all the emotions, please remember that you have positively changed the life of one young lady in New Zealand without even knowing it.
You brought happy tears to my eyes ❤️
I'm so sorry about your loss of your beautiful fur, baby Blue! 😭💔🙏
And you don't deserve any of this! Stay strong! ❤️❤️
Very sorry you're going through this. Thieves are absolute scum of the Earth. Also, my mother's 13 year old dog, Chulo (with whom I was very close) was recently put to sleep due to sickness. I considered him my brother, so I know exactly how you're feeling.
Btw, if you're still around NYC, B&H Photo in Manhattan is a good place for any tech goods you may need.
God bless you ❤
I hope she left that area. There is too much going on with the illegals and gangs there. Hoperfully, she went somewhere safer, as she will have a lot to do now.
I read they just evicted with an 60-day notice 40,000 illegals from the NY area (I can't remember which city they stated). This means no more FREE ride in the U.S.
Maria I am very sorry that that happened to you so I just wanted to give you a little something I know it's not much but I know you're the type of person that would greatly appreciate it and I sincerely hope that you get your backups back with all your footage of blue on it not going to lie I teared up when you started to cry and there is nothing wrong with that by the way I've enjoyed the footage with blue over the time I've been watching you so again it's not much but it's a little something to help you recoup your loss and may the idiots that did this to you have Instant Karma much love Maria thank you for all your videos
God bless you ❤
This is terrible. I’m sorry for what happened. I hope you will treasure what you have in the videos you shared with us. 😢❤
The old Defender is one of the most unsecure vehicles anyone might drive. You minimally need, window locks, door dead locks, an ignition isolator, and an alarm system, and I'd suggest a structural safe.
Exactly! It was just a matter of time unfortunately
And dash cams
Any cars remarkably insecure. The things you mentioned would have prevented the truck from being driven off and given it's not like a Tesla or Porsche or something I think there's a little chance of that. So the suggestion would have done nothing to prevent the theft of the items inside the truck
Right on
@drawntoview having a safe and backing up to the cloud would be a start..
You are my favourite UA-camr. I hope this helps. I know it’s not much but at least it’s something.
I just started watching you like two weeks ago and I’m so so sorry that you lost all your pictures and videos of Blue. I can’t imagine what you are going through still to this day.
At times like these I don’t even know what to say, but stay strong, you got this!
Im so sorry, Maria. ❤. So not your fault 🤗
😢 I just want to cry for you over this. Words can't even express how sorry I am about this awful violation. Thank gosh that you & Taz are fine.
I just watched my first video of yours last night of when you were traveling thru Alaska with Blue. I was obsessed with how cute and sweet he was. Now I'm seeing that he died. I'm literally in tears. I'm so sorry you don't deserve any of this.
The taking of your birth certificate would make me think they will try to open credit in your name. If you haven't done it already, freeze or lock your credit with the 3 credit reporting agencies. People are horrible. ☹️
Or social security number
That’s what I was thinking,they coukd get a I’d in her name with it
Came here to say this!! Dealing with this currently from someone who hacked into my incarcerated brothers accounts, wrote themselves checks from my brother's accounts, and tried to open credit cards in his name.
It's good you filed a police report - keep the case number handy and call any banking institutions you use that may have had account info accessed (routing numbers, check books), call the big credit companies and have them freeze your credit, and keep in touch with the police department in the jurisdiction where this happened! Weekly if possible, they may have updates with newly found footage or reports of your items being resold online or in pawn shops. Also on that note, call local pawn shops in the area and notify them what items were stolen from you so that they will be aware if they see those items come into their stores.
I'm so sorry this happened, and I'm so sorry you had to go through losing Blue again. I lost my soul cat to cancer February 29th this year and the grief is still so fresh. I still lose my composure every few days. I can't imagine losing the photos and videos I have of him. I pray that your grief can eventually soften and that you'll at least get your memories of him back somehow ❤
Yes, alert the credit companies. I had my identity stolen, and it's tough to prove that you didn't open those accounts or give anyone permission to do so. I was the victim, but I got treated like I was the one who did the crime.🙄
They may also be able to get a Social Security number in your name
So sorry for your pain. Many hugs, and thank you.
So sorry this is how I found your channel. Especially your videos about your pup.
I’m just so glad this was NOT one of the times that Tazz was by herself in the truck. 🙏🏽
I came here to say the same!
Oh thank goodness. I was wondering where she was during that.
Same I was scared they would steal her too 😭
@@yagirlmaryor worse 😔
Agree! 100 percent.
Hi Maria, so sorry to hear about your break-in and loss...I wouldn't blame you if you took a little time off and recuperate. I'm sure your subs would eagerly await your return.
I’m SO sorry Ria! LOCK YOUR CREDIT and get notifications from the 3 credit bureaus. With birth certificate they can get ID’s and try to get loans, duplicate credit cards ,etc. Losing Blue’s footage made me cry too. Horrible people out there. 😡😢❤️ You’re strong. It will take a bit but you’ll bounce back. Blue is always with you. He is love now. ❤
The people that targeted her are likely from Venezuela.
I came here to say this! That was my first thought.
I thought that too!
Dang. That loss on top of your grief is brutal. Former Aussie mom here. I am so impressed with the progress you’re making with Taz. I’m glad you have family support.
I have followed you for several years now. So sad to hear all about this. Please take this gift and use it to help get back some of the stuff they took. 🙏🏼
I know its not much and i wish i could spare more but i hope this helps towards replacing your stuff.
❤ Sorry that happened. Keep on moving forward as you are. ❤
Crying with you! 😭 especially old pictures. I’m so sorry this happened to you!
I’m so sorry this happened but I’m glad you weren’t there and not hurt.
I know it’s not a lot but I wanted to give you something. I can’t stand people that steal.
God bless you ❤
@@1st_Gen_Life that's very generous
You're awesome ❤❤
@@1st_Gen_Life she is stealing your money by lying about getting robbed
@ForkInTheRoad33 right that's what I'm saying, she does a video so dumb people can feel sorry and sad for her and send her a lot of money, listen to the dumb crap they supposably stole books ,dogs collar, tampons, I had my home get broken into and I didn't feel the need to let the world know, and why is she laughing I know cause she is looking at her account and all that money coming in....
I feel so sorry for you. Through your videos I understood how bonded you and Blue were. I lost my dog of 17 1/2 years this summer. I'm devastated. So I really understand your loss. I pray somehow you get your hard drive back.
I can't think of anything worse than to have something so personal and irreplaceable taken. I am praying for you.
PPA has insurance for like $29 a month. Professional photographers of America, it covers like $15,000 I'm not sure what the deductible is though.
We love and support you Maria. This is so awful but you are strong and will get through this crappy time with grace.
Hey maria, i was heartbroken for you seeing the live and waited for this video. I wish i could donate to you, im disabled and on a very small fixed income, but your love for blu and your new baby is so familiar to me, you brighten my day. I hope you keep on keepin on, cuz you are an old soul and your star shines. God bless you and stay safe.
It's not much, but I love your channel and wanted to help
God bless you ❤
It happens to so many of us, unfortunately we don't have a YT channel so people can help us, good on this lady
I’m so sorry you have gone through this people c
An be absolutely sickening.
But my heart truly breaks for you with the loss of footage of your pups, camera gear is huge money but can be replaced but your priceless memories is heart breaking
