All My Children alum Cameron Mathison gave advice on what not to say to someone who lost his home in the Los Angeles fires after losing his own home.
“When you share or comment about someone who has lost their home to these fires, and everything they own, everyone has a very different relationship with their home,” the TV star said in a video shared on Instagram.
Mathison lost his home in the LA burns which started on January 7 and are still burning.

“Some people generally move a lot. Some people may have moved to LA, but have all their childhood stuff at home with their parents. And some people may have lived in that house for a long time, and it really represents a lifetime of memories , and it’s where their children grew up and everything they owned – everything they owned – was in it,” the “General Hospital” star explained, “from their childhood to their children’s childhood, and it represents a physical object that resembles love and memories, and it could mean much more.”
“Keep that in mind when you share something, and you might say, ‘It’s just a house,’ or ‘It’s just stuff, and you can replace that.'”
“For some people that may be true, but for many people it is much more than that,” he added.

“Keep that in mind when you share something, and you might say, ‘It’s just a house,’ or ‘It’s just stuff, and you can replace that.’ That may be true for some people, but for many people it is much more than that.”
Mathison previously revealed he left behind some “valuable” items when he evacuated his home due to the Eaton fire. The actor only grabbed passports, birth certificates and photo albums because he “didn’t really believe” he would lose the house.
“Unfortunately, I left behind some valuable films where the children were very, very young and films that you can’t replace,” Mathison said Entertainment tonight. “If I really thought the house was going to collapse, I would have taken so much more.”

Mathison remembered his house burning down while he was watching the news. “I was just sitting there, it was probably 6 o’clock in the morning, and I had to go there,” he continued, saying he bought a mask and goggles before heading to his neighborhood. “It looked like a war zone.”
The actor realized the family home was “completely gone” when he arrived. ‘It was really, really decimated. There is nothing. Less than nothing. It just all burned to ashes.”
