On September 15th a sister/friend suddenly died.  This is someone I spent 15 years trying to save from the very demise she came to.  And then 2 weeks later my dad's best friend over dosed on heroin.  Then a couple of weeks after this, I had to leave my home suddenly, where I was the house manager, because of a potential violence towards me by a tenant. I let someone in who seemed good at first, and then found out they have a mental illness but are not taking their medication, so they became totally paranoid, deluded and deranged towards me.   It was very scary.  I couldn't stay there any longer, in fact I had to leave immediately, just grab a bit of stuff and flee to a woman's safe house.   I have moved into a new place but wasn't prepared for this, so have had to reach out for others' help.   I see it as I am starting a whole new life, although this was not my plan. I instantly lost a person I have known a long time.  The whole universe shifted when she died.  Then my dad's best friend dying.  I knew him too.  And then losing my home and job at the same time. It has all been a big shock and taking a while to adust to.  I am asking for donations to enable me to begin a whole new life, and to help me get back on my feet.  At first it was very upsetting and scary, and I am still grieving the loss of all of this. Sometimes life forces us into new directions and the best thing to do is just go forth with trust and faith.  Not always easy, but it truly is the best way.
