Deal winner Clarissa Hedman Pöysti lives alone with her daughter opposite the burnt house in Kalasatama.
Hedman Pöysti was at the restaurant on Saturday evening to celebrate his sister’s birthday.
– Eetu was at home with our child and then the Helsingin Sanomat headline caught my eye, saying that a house on our street in Kalasatama is on fire, says Hedman Pöysti, referring to his spouse Eetu Pöysti.
It soon dawned that it was not Hedman Pöyst’s house. The terrible feeling changed to relief in an instant. However, Hedman Pöysti soon headed home.
When Hedman Pöysti arrived home, the extinguishing work in the neighborhood was still in progress. Hedman Pöysti watched as burning roof tiles were lifted from the roof of the damaged house. Hedman Pöyst’s apartment also smelled strongly of smoke.
– Our bedroom has ventilation. Our 7-month-old slept there and I started taping the ventilation before the building company turned it off.
Later, Hedman Pöysti noticed that the house’s Facebook page said that residents can also turn off the air conditioning themselves using the emergency button.
– The situation is over, but you learn all that. Apparently these new houses have some kind of emergency button for situations like this.
Hedman Pöysti states that through motherhood one becomes more sensitive to various dangerous situations. Hedman Pöysti, who had his first child in October, states that he would not necessarily have thought that he needed to do anything in the situation before. Now the child was made to think of different solutions and worry more about the situation.
Hedman Pöysti knows a few people who lived in the house that burned down in Kalasatama. The situation seems to him to be wild for them. Hedman Pöysti had also thought about getting a membership to the new gym on the ground floor of the house, but that too can stay for the time being.
– It’s a terrible thing when people have lost their homes there.
– I hope this was a warning example to the entire Finnish people that you can’t keep those open or gas grills on the balcony, Hedman Pöysti sums up.
The divorce situation of Hedman Pöysti and Eetu Pöysti has been in the news recently. The couple is in divorce proceedings, but they have not yet been sentenced to divorce.
