Help a Veteran’s family keep their Home and Heat!

Donation protected
I am a Disabled Air Force Veteran. I was critically wounded while serving my country. The injuries  I sustained have made it extremely difficult to do everyday task such a bathing, cooking and walking. My mobility has been drastically hindered.
I suffer from PTSD, Anxiety, Major Depression, nightmares, insomnia, MST, osteoarthritis, OSA,  right shoulder, hip, back, neck and knee injuries that have required many surgeries.  I am permanently disabled! Each step is incredibly painful. When I can sleep often awakened by my pain.I take some strong pain medications four times a day but I refuse to take opiods due to their addictive properties pain is  ever present and the weather can make for a even more pain day. I am imprisoned inside of my body! I am always on high alert at home but even more when I have to go out. I am in a anxious state always mindful of my surroundings hyper vigilant. I feel bad when I need help with simple things like I am a burden to my family. On those really bad days which have often lately I entertain the thoughts of suicide.  My nightmares are vivid and violent that I fight in my sleep so I take meds to help me sleep and to not have nightmares I never sleep more than 5 hours. Plus my pain is so intense that my sleep even with the meds is interrupted.  

I never wanted to get to a point were I had ask the people for help but our need exceeds the meager money I receive for disability it is so so had to support a family of six on what I get. My Mom's and I medications and care exceed what I receive at this point. This year has been a monster with my 3 major and 1 minor surgeries in 2018 plus, housing expenses that are behind, medical expenses, furnace not working, basement that was flooded, handicap home adaption and tree falling on our car to be able to resolve these we need your help. We don't have two nickels to rub together! Starting on January 29, 2019 at West Chester Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio by Dr. Utz. I have three major surgeries in 2019 not all of the cost, rehab and home care will be covered and I will have a large out of pocket for them. 
Quicken Loans has started the foreclosure process for  our home but if I can come up with all of the the back mortgage it can be stopped. I hate asking for help but the reality is that I need it now. I need to keep us together with a roof over our heads. I am asking for your help with the difficulties we face everyday being homeless is a future reality without your help. Please if you can find it in your heart to keep a roof over our heads and help me regain some of the freedom I have lost it would be a blessing.  I itemized below because it is heck of a lot of money we need and if you help you should know where it is going. Well thank you for allowing me to share about our lives, our struggles and our needs. Anything is better than nothing so all donations are a blessing.
