FAMILY STRUGGLES with finances and pending deaths

Donation protected
My name is Barbara. I am the main financial supporter for essentially 3 counterparts of my family. My sister is disabled and is the primary caretaker of her husband who has terminal lung cancer. They have been together since they were 15 and 17 years old. I have known him since I was 12. My cousin is also disabled and the primary caretaker of her mother who has end stage Alzheimers and requires full assistance. I have my own immediate family that I support too. We are all living together and suffering financial difficulties. I moved to Central FL recently to be closer to everyone. I am in the medical field and can better help emotionally and physically with the medical needs of my family living together. I uprooted my immediate family after 23 years in the same home. Some of my kids were actually born and raised in the home I recently moved from. The home owners insurance more than doubled. I was no longer able to afford living in S FL. I am looking for work. As soon as I have a job I will be able to better support the family. However, I'll have to wait probably 3 weeks before I get my first paycheck and it will likely be only for 1 week. I have a few interviews every week. I was delayed on searching for work due to the needs of the family. Under these current circumstances, I am now behind on household bills including rent and utilities let alone food and gas. My savings is gone and I see myself getting further and further behind. I don't have any money to cover funeral expenses should one of my terminal family members pass away. I have so many people counting on me and I am feeling like I am letting everyone down. I am blessed we have each other and have faith I will find work soon and our finances will improve. However, I admit I am scared about getting so far behind that I won't be able to catch up. I just do not have anywhere else to turn for help during this very stressful chapter in our lives. If there is anyone out there available to help financially, it would be greatly appreciated and we would be eternally grateful.
