Jake needs your help, WE need help

This is incredibly hard for me to do but we are completely out of options for our son.
Jake was diagnosed with  leukemia in the fall of last year. He was six years old at the time and all he cared about then was the World Wresteling Federation and didn't sit still or listen one bit when I tried to explain to him what might be in store after his diagnosis. 
He doesn't watch much Wresteling any more on account of how much time was taken from his childhood because of the disease. 
In the first four months we maxed out the insurance policy. Three months after that we got the notice to leave our home because we could no longer pay the rent. 
My girlfriend had quit her job to take care of Jake full time and my job was simply not enough to support all that was taking place in our lives.
Because of the eviction we found it hard to get a new place in a safe area so we have been forced to live in a motel until we can get a little ahead.
The problem is we can't get ahead, if anything we are moving backwards.
So this finds me here, asking for help. Jake does not deserve what has been handed to him. He deserves happiness and a real childhood playing in parks and running around like all the other kids his age.
It kills me that I can not give him this and just magically make things better for him. I love him more than anything and I am so unbelievably proud of him for being so strong despite all that has gone on.
When I had no choice but to go to the crap motel we are now in, he saw how upset it made me. When it was just me and him in the car driving to storage to pick up some clothes, he looked at me, smiled and then told me that it will be fun staying there and that it was going to be like the vacation we took last year before this all began. All he wanted to do was watch Cartoon network and catch up on shows since we had to stop paying the cable bill.
He is the most beautiful boy and deserves the best the world can give him.
Help us get ahead. Please help my son Jake.
