Howdy y'all. As most of you know my name is Jeremy Hockett. It seems that when it rains it pours and for me always seems to continue to sprinkle. So many things have led me to this situation. A tax audit that took 2 years to resolve, a state assistance program that my old landlord refused and then evicted me and won't allow me to collect any belongings, a boss that refused to garnish my child support for a year, taking care of others before myself and the list goes on. Most of you don't know that out of the past 3 months 2 and a half were spent living in my minivan with my dog and best friend Lily. Without her I don't know how I would have made it this long. I was finally able to get myself a camper with the help of one of my other best friends, my older brother Tim. As soon as I got the place I started getting 75% of my check garnished and I'm working to resolve that now. But the garnishments leave me with gas money to get to work and I'm constantly having to borrow from friends and family to make sure I can eat and have propane to keep warm. My kids begged me to move closer to them so I could see them more and go to more school events. To do so I lived in my van and basically showed up early to work early so I could shower and do laundry. I e always taken struggling over charity because I could always seem to find a way. But after my last heart attack just before Thanksgiving I realized my body ain't like it used to be I'm not sure if getting another job will work is in the cards for me. I'm only 45 and have had 3 heart attacks. So the money people can hopefully donate will before groceries, rent, my medications, dog food and gas to get me to my job. On top of everything else one of my daughter's wants to come stay with me as well. But I can't bring her to a place she'll be going hungry or cold. Anything helps cuz it all adds up. It's been hard to put these truths out there for everyone to see but I have to swallow my pride and ask for the help I need. I hope I haven't bored you too much with my story. Thanks in advance. Even if the only donation you can give is sending some positive vibes and love.
