I'm at my wits end, which is why I'm here. I'm deaf and have been on disability since I was 58, and my income is very limited. When my daughter and granddaughter became homeless, I went to Florida and took them in, supporting them on credit cards. I tried to rebuild our relationship and gave as much as I could, even though I didn't have much myself. When the holidays came, I wanted to make them feel special, but unfortunately, things didn't work out and they left. I was left with all the bills and a heavy heart.

I tried to do the right thing and pay off my debt through a national debt relief program, but it turned out to be a scam. They charged me interest for years, and now I've been switched to another company that says I owe even more, with interest piling up until 2031. I'm supposed to be enjoying my golden years, but instead, I'm overwhelmed by debt, car payments, and utilities. My house is paid for, but my social security barely covers my basic needs. My health has suffered too—I've had neck and back surgery and struggle with colitis. It's hard to keep faith, but I try to trust that things will get better.

If anyone is reading this, I could really use some hope and prayers. Your support would mean the world to me and help me find some relief during this difficult time. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any help you can give.
