Hi, my name is Virginia, Ginny to others. As most of you also know, I am a proud woman not used to begging...but times are desperate.

I suffered a stroke in March and after returning home to live with my son, he unceremoniously dumped me and my other son Junie, who has MS, basically on the street. He dropped me off with no clothes or my walker. He was going to take his brother to a homeless shelter.

We are currently staying in a hotel, but our funds are running dry. We have no resources, not even a change of clothes. We desperately need any help you can spare to get a more permanent place to live and hopefully some basic clothing and furniture.
