Aid Needed: Overcoming Job & Health Struggles
Donation protected
I have struggled to do this. But the need is imminent now. If you know my husband and myself, you know our situation hasn't been good since Covid when we lost our house and jobs. We've struggled to stay afloat. My car has been down for almost a year. His truck's alternator just went out. My health isn't getting any better since I lost my insurance and can't get the necessary appointments and medications that I need. I have heart disease, 2 leaking heart valves, spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease, and high blood pressure. The swelling in my legs and hands is horrible and painful. They have recommended surgery to fuse vertebrae in my neck, and I need knee replacement. I have cataract surgery I'm in need of and am losing sight in my left eye from Dry Macular Degeneration. I can't apply for government help at the moment because my ID has expired. Every little bit of money he makes goes into paying for this hotel room and food for us. Our phones need to be paid, we need help getting the part and paying for someone to fix the truck and look at my car. If I can get the funds for my ID, I can apply for my Social Security as I'm 62 now. I could apply for State Insurance and help with food. If we could generate enough for deposits, we could move out of this hotel and into a small house that would be much more affordable. With me not being able to work like I used to, 99% of this falls on Anthony. And I know this is a heavy load. I'm not one to go public with our personal struggles. But we need help with basics at this moment. We need money for food, shelter, transportation, and for our pets as well. If you can find it in your hearts to donate, share, or say a prayer for us, we would be very grateful.
