I'm short $1098 to avoid eviction.

I am getting evicted on July 2nd. I just had bicep and rotator cuff surgery fourteen days ago. I'm a truck driver and I had my trucking company for 14 years before I had to let it go because I got sick with mental health issues and health issues. Since I lost my job, I can't afford to pay my rent. I have exhausted all help in the city through churches and state organizations.

I'm looking to see if you know anyone who can help with eviction that's scheduled for July 2nd.

The sheriff has already delivered notice.

Total rent due: $8108.96

Amount I have paid: $7010.00

Total short: $1098.96 to avoid eviction on the 2nd.

Is there a program you can recommend?

I've received help from CERA, EWAP, TRUA, Salvation Army, Re: Brothers, and Community Economic Defense Project, and every other organization that is out of funds. I am on the CARES waitlist as of today.

I also have accepted the fact that I fought a good fight to keep a roof over my head and I'm okay with being homeless. I have already started reaching out to shelters so I know where I will go and I know it will take less than three months to get me into affordable housing. I live in Five Points, so I have all my doctors within scooter rides, but with my shoulder, I have to take Lyft because the car was repossessed. I don't have any income. I have applied for as much help as there is available.

Sometimes people know of programs that I may not be aware of; anything is helpful.

I have enough to put my things in a small storage to go to the shelter.

I never saw this day coming as I made $380k a year as a businesswoman after divorcing. I got sick with borderline personality disorder and my ex-husband ran through $580k of my business and personal savings while I was in psychosis inpatient treatment. But I stayed faithful and still see this as a positive experience because I am becoming the best version of me.

I got a job at Salvation Army lined up, but I found some women's shelters that can fast-track me into an affordable apartment until I can get back on my feet. I have medical care with Denver Health and WellPower mental health care teams available, but this might be the one time we all witness the work of God. I'm smiling with good spirit.

I'm excited to sleep outside, but I'm not terrified, so I'm going to be okay. I have been looking at safe places I could go for a few days if I don't get the shelter on the 2nd.

I have prepared for every outcome as a testimony to add to my amazingly beautiful life. I have always been a faithful person and I feel like my life is not my own right now.

I am being guided into my purpose and this eviction may be a part of that process, but I'm not giving up either because I've watched everything fall into place. My disability is coming; I just have to hang in until then...

Thanks for any advice.
