Help Overcome Tragedy: Support for a New Start
Donation protected
I am desperate after years of losses and setbacks.
I lost my husband to cancer in 2018 and subsequently lost my brother to suicide, then my father, my childhood best friend, both of my dogs and both of my grandmothers.
All of this brought me to my knees. I already struggled with depression and anxiety, but these losses brought it to a level I never imagined. I suffered through a couple of suicide attempts but have found the light again. I know there's a bigger purpose for me, and I'm hoping to turn it around and help people through their grief journey.
While trying to get back on track, I got hit head-first in my parked car. My car was totaled, I tore my hip labrum, and injured my back. I'm still battling with the insurance company to get this resolved. It's been over 2 years. During this time, I went back to work and ended up breaking my fibula, which set me back even further. I also got diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure and avascular necrosis which is extremely painful. I don’t have insurance so I’ve been paying my medical expenses out of my pocket.
I'm finally feeling better and just started a new job that is less physically demanding.
I just can't get caught up though. I'm behind on my rent and my landlord just filed for eviction today. My credit is shot after helping my husband battle cancer. I've applied for loans and can't get approved. I'm at the end of my rope. I'm all alone and facing homelessness. I need help. I don't want this to be the end of my story. If I can just get through this, I know I will be able turn things around.
