Help Beki's disabled family rebuild

Last year my husband of 22 yrs passed over, after 5+ yrs of fighting for his life. Its not easy to rebuild after several years of cancer sucking the life out of our family. When we're left with very little money, few belongings and a condition that messes with the mind and body, challenges are abundant. Since then my my disabled family, my two sons and I, limped on with the help of my grandmother.

 

My youngest son, Bodhi, is autistic. He has debilitating social anxieties. He punches himself out of frustration. And he struggles with IBS and muscle spasms from his stress. Bodhi is also very loving and has hugs that can soothe a wild beast. Bodhi is artistic and is learning how to strengthen his skills thru practice. And his natural intuition is fined tuned, which helps when he's able to come out of his shell long enough to communicate what he understands.

 

My oldest son, David, has severe anxieties. His panic attacks cause issues with holding traditional jobs. David, like his brother, can't sleep at night, has intrusive thoughts, etc. So he decided to start a 3D printing business. David spent his stimulus money on a 3D printer and has been working on building his print library, etc. 

 

I have developed Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from a lifetime of traumas. I have, also, developed Functional Neurological Disorder. (It is taking me a several days just come up with words and get my hands to properly type.) These disorders cause a plethora of issues from fibro fog and intrusive thoughts; to disassociate seizures, with three stomach disorders, fibromyalgia, severe fatigue, disorienting pain, and more.

 

To make matters even more difficult the house we're currently living in a house that was sold out from under us. We are now facing life on the streets, as we haven't had enough time to get our finances in order. We only receive a small amount of money in disability, and David needs time to build his 3D printing business. We need to come up with money to move into a home so we can continue to rebuild.

Homelessness could destroy what little we've accomplished. I could die in the streets due to the heat wave and my condition. My son's could end up in institutions; instead of all three of us continuing to be supportive members of society. Please donate funds to help us find a new place ASAP. Then check back to see David's business growing.
