Alright y'all, here's the deal. I went through treatment for breast cancer over the last two years. I still have more to come. The ugly truth is that cancer destroys your whole life. It destroyed my body. It destroyed my mental health. And one of the first things it destroyed was my finances. Did you know I used to have a savings? And my credit card used to be paid off every month. And I bought groceries without worrying. I fought so hard to get out of the restaurant biz, worked so hard to learn a new industry.
Now that's changed. My savings is gone. My credit card is maxed. I worry about my grocery bill. My Consumers is overdue. I busted my ass through chemo and radiation, I work overtime while taking pills that make me sick. And it's still not enough.
And I have to move. Once I move, my situation will improve drastically. Significantly lower bills all around. But the truth is that I can't afford a deposit. And the friend I'm moving with is a single mom whose also been struggling. This is going to be a huge financial improvement for both of us if we can pull it off. I'm not going to name her here since I didn't clear this with her, but IYKYK. The simple truth is that we just don't have the money for this. We have tried to get assistance. We've tried to get loans from the bank. Neither of us have rich family or friends. I'm currently not in active treatment, so cancers funds are hard to find. And we need a 3 bedroom so we're looking at $800-1300 for rent. Which is doable. But 2 or 3 times that for the deposit is just not.
So here I am. I know I haven't been active in a while. But this is my absolute last resort. Begging for money on Facebook. You have no idea the amount of shame I have right now. I'd rather die than do this, but that's not an option. I know everyone's struggling now, especially just coming off the holidays. But if you have a dollar you're not using, maybe send it this way. I plan to pay back every donation I possibly can someday. Anyone whose name I can see, I will someday pay back. I can't guarantee it'll be soon, but I will die trying. If you know me, you know I mean it.
Even if you can't help, thanks for reading this far. Thank you for donating your time to me. I love you all, with all my heart. And my one good tit. ;)
