Widowed mom needs help

Donation protected
I am finally sucking up my pride and asking for some help. I am a single mom of two children with a 3rd on the way. My husband committed suicide 6 months ago and left me with absolutely nothing but a completely broken heart, tons of debt and a house I need help affording. This financial situation is temporary as I am only struggling because I cant work until the beginning of July, our baby is due in a couple of weeks but since I am having a C-Section I cant work for 2 months after. Obviously I did not plan on losing him so we had no financial back up as our lives were just starting together. We moved in with each other a year ago, he was an amazing step dad to my children and we got married just recently in June, we were pregnant with his first child by the end of July and then the nightmare of September came when I came home with my children and found him hanging in our garage, he left us with such shattered hearts and unanswered questions. I have had to use the money we did have saved for baby supplies since I had nothing left from the other two kids because I thought I was done having children until I had met him and I had to pay off his debts and I have been paying all of the bills, Christmas, birthdays everything for the kids on my own without income, just from our savings because I was a stay at home mom before because daycare was too expensive and didn't make any since for me to work just to pay for daycare so we agreed I would just start work in September when the kids went to school, then with his passing in the beginning of September I was not emotionally ready for work right away for obvious reasons, when I felt like I could finally hold back tears long enough to get a job no one wanted to hire me because they could obviously see I was pregnant and even though they cant not hire me because of that lets face it, there are tons of other excuses they could have used to make up for it. So I have been on my own for 6 months now with no help trying to keep my house running and my kids happy, I have been doing online school to further my degrees so come July I can hopefully find a great job and continue to support my family on my own as I have been doing this far, however the funds are pretty much gone now and I need help just to hold us over until July. Please consider helping us out, I cannot lose my home, this is the house we picked out together, this is where he died, this is where my kids call home, this is where they are going to school, they have lost so much already I cant stand the thought of having to uproot them, I cant even imagine the mental toll that would take on them right now.
