Just A Little Help Needed

Donation protected

My name is Blenda and this is Dillon, my 5 yr old son. Long story short....I am not one to ask for help, but I am at the end of my ropes. I have missed so much work because of him being sick and no one to watch him all the time. I cannot afford daycare or even the second half of his kindergarten. With this last sickness and hospitalization at Children's Hospital for pneumonia and almost collapsed lung, I am very broke. He was born a micro preemie at only 26 weeks with chronic lung disease. Was in NICU for 3.5 months. We stayed at Ronald McDonald House on weekends while we went to visit him as he was 2 hrs away. He now has allergies and eczema as well. Winters are rough for him and his lungs. At any moment, I am waiting for eviction notice and even my job to let me go. I have applied for FMLA and waiting. I have other bills that I'm not sure how anything will get paid. I am contemplating second job, but then all that money will go towards childcare. I just need some breathing room money. I need a roof over my son's head and heat. Our poor old truck doesn't have heat right now either. So this Colorado winter is extra chilly. Food is even needed. Just last week, he got kicked out of parts of his school. I don't feel they are trained for kids like him.  We are needing him to be tested for Aspergers, and his insurance does not cover it. Now my huge focus is on the testing, so we can get him the help he needs. I have spent so many days crying, feeling like no one understands him. It breaks my heart.  Also, I have just recently in the last few days became a single mom in an ugly breakup. I will be having to find a room to rent for me and my son to try and make it. If you can help even with $1, I would greatly appreciate it. There is so much more going on in my life than I can bear right now. Just a little from a few can go a long way!
