It's a tough time.  I have found myself unable to work due to a degenerative bone disease that is robbing me of my mobility. As a result, my income has dropped off to nothing.

I have sold most of my more valuable possessions to try and stay afloat, but alas, I could not keep my apartment.  So, I find myself living in my car. And, whats worse, I find myself living in my car with 4 cats.  This is not sustainable in any way for any length of time.

To that end, I have left my home area and looking for more affordable places to live.  I do get a small stipend each month on the first, but as I write this, that is days and days away and we are broke.

I dont create this page or ask this lightly, but I have no other recourse for some immediate help.

I am asking for a small amount, $2,500 to cover costs of temporary housing while I find something more permanent. That amount, I figure, would cover the cost of getting around, feeding all 5 of us, and fronting some deposit money, etc for a new apartment in a more affordable area.

I am, and this has been described to me as a fault, rather prideful and making this campaign is quite painful to me, but I desperately need help for the next couple weeks.

If anyone has ever given you a little help, a leg-up, a meal when you needed it,  I hope you know how this feels to put this up.

Please help if you can and your thoughts and cares for us is also very appreciated.
