Hello. I am Jiji and I am a disabled woman on the brink of homelessness.

At this time, I have unpaid medical debt, I am missing teeth that I cannot afford to replace, and I suffer through chronic pain at all times, which is just barely controlled with medication. I am partially blind and unable to drive, and I am unable to walk or stand for extended periods or distances, so I am unable to do most jobs or get to them. My physical disabilities, combined with my major depressive disorder, severely limit my life and prevents me from working any job that isn't done from home, especially since I do not live in a neighborhood with access to public transportation or potential jobs.

I was let go by my previous employer because they ended remote work and I was not able to travel to and from an office, and I have struggled to find any remote work now that so many companies have similarly returned to office.

I have continuously applied for disability benefits, but the process is very difficult and slow. I come begging, pleading with strangers to help me hold on while I try to find a source of income. I lived on my savings for a while, but there is no sign of government help yet and I'm out of time. If I do not receive this help, I will have my phone/my only source of communication turned off, and then I will be homeless within a few months. I have a dog so I cannot stay in a shelter.

The amount requested was carefully calculated for the absolute bare minimum that I possibly could while making it so I don't have to live in fear, at least for a while. This would cover the following:

Fixing my teeth would cost thousands of dollars. I am not asking for any outright help with this since having proper teeth is unfortunately considered a luxury by doctors, but if I received more funds than I needed, anything left over would go to covering that expense so I don't have to live in shame hiding my face and refusing to be around other people so they don't see me.

Any help would mean the world to me. I won't survive this winter if I can't find help. Please help save me.
