behind on bills
Donation protected
We are behind on bills because we had to move twice since the end of June. After going on Vacation to Florida for my Grandmother's 80th birthday we came home and descovered our home, where we had lived since before Jasmine's 2nd birthday, to be compleetly infested with mold. A pipe in the shower had developed a leak while we were away. Considering Jasmines history of premature birth and chronic lung disease, as well as her current conditions which include epilepsy, cerebral palsy, Autism, and hydrocephalus, I made the decision to move. I put what could be saved of my belongings in a storage unit and Jasmine and I moved in with my boyfriend in Charlottesville. His appartment was a one bedroom and the appartment complex has a rule of 2 people per bedroom so when they descovered there were 3 people in a 1 bedroom we were told we had to transfer to a two bedroom. Right before we moved I got in a car accident which totalled my car and I then had to get a new one. On top of that I missed a whole week of work because of Jasmine having health issues and needing two hospital visits. Now we are in a situation where we are a whole month behind on rent and I also owe $225 for doctor bills for my own health. Every time we are late the appartment complex charges an additional $125. I don't know what to do. I can not get a loan because I have already taken a loan out for my car which was a very important purchase considering I do catering and my daughter has 3 regular doctors and a physical and speech therapist. I normally would not ask for help. It is very embarrassing for me to do this but I need a place to call home for my daughter's sake. She is just getting used to it here and at her new school. Adjusting to new places is something that is very difficult for children with autism and Jasmine has been having extreme fits that actually cause her physical injury. I am terrified of being kicked out and having to start all over again. Please help us get back on our feet.
