Hi, my name is Melissa Forrester. I have four children and I am with Jeremy Huddleston. We've been together for 14 years and we are working on ourselves. We have been through a lot and we are both disabled. I have spinal stenosis, Stickler syndrome, and severe osteoarthritis throughout my whole body. Right now, I'm dealing with a vitamin deficiency thyroid issues from weight loss shots they made me very sick gastroparesis gastritis GERD diverticulosis reactive airway disease I have mitral valve prolapse regurgitation I'm having vertigo really bad because I'm having issues with not being able to eat I'm Malnutritioned from the weight loss shots also so I'm not feeling very well very weak not able to do much . I am getting ready to have my second hip replacement on November 7th. I need two knee replacements. For my back, there is nothing that can be done. I am pretty close to being in a wheelchair. I have a couple of good days, but I have a lot of bad days.

We need a home that is a one-story, open space with wide hallways for wheelchairs, a wheel-in shower, and a fenced-in yard for my dogs. We would also need a cat wall, of course, for the kitty cats, and most importantly, for the children. My oldest, Noah, loves speakers and ceiling fans. He's autistic and he's going blind. My second son has made us proud as well. My daughter Goldie loves VR, and my daughter Aurora loves animals. We all want to have a place of our own.

Please help our family build a home in the country if you can. My fiancé and I can't work; we are both disabled, but I'm the only one on disability right now. Our landlords are about to sell our home. We really need your help. Lord, bring your people together and give love, caring, selflessness, and full-hearted humans that love to see others happy too. Last year, we didn't get a Christmas or Christmas dinner. So the phones would be used to buy my house but I live in or by a new house or build our own house The house I live in needs a lot of work so just really need to get the money so I can either remodel the house I live in or rebuild or buy a new house
