Hi my name is Gage, I'm 32 years old, nonbinary (AFAB) and from NW Ohio 
 
My partner Leila and I have experienced extreme hardship this year. Moving from place to place, staying in a hotel, losing friends &amp; family, losing our beloved cat Moonlight, going in and out of the hospital, we're basically house hopping/couch surfing at this point. 
 
We have electric to pay off from our old apartment in Columbus, which is around $1,000. Medical bills are also piling up as I've had to go to the emergency room multiple times in the last few months alone. 
 
I'm disabled, on SSDI, and unable to stand for long periods of time or walk long distances without a cane. To top it all off, I have to see a hematologist and neurologist. MS is prevalent in my family, and I'm showing symptoms.. 

Muscle stiffness, spasms, tremors, restless legs, balance issues, back pain and stiffness, numbness, and burning pain in my shoulder that radiates down into my arm and hand. Sometimes it feels like electric shocks going down my arm. 

Luckily, I have a neurologist appointment on the 17th of February. 

I will keep everyone updated ❤️ 
 
Edit: 

omg I was not expecting to get these kinds of donations and so soon!! Much appreciated, almost brings a tear to my eye to see all the support and humanity shining through 
 
When our goals are met, and we find stable housing and are in a better spot, we promise to pay it forward by donating to other fundraisers! Happy Holidays, everyone, y'all are really giving us hope ❤️ 
 
one dead end after another... 

no one is willing to rent to us because of the eviction. now we have to pay $3, 000 to have it expunged.. on top of living out of an Airbnb that is draining us of our savings. Still nowhere to go, at least my partner has a job.. but we are giving up hope.. I want to disappear
