My name is Virginia, and I am raising funds for myself, my son, and my grandson. After my husband passed away in April, our lives changed dramatically. He was on Social Security, and his benefits helped us keep our home and provide for our family. When those benefits stopped, we lost the income that kept us afloat. My grandson, who is autistic, also had his benefits stopped, and despite applying for help, we keep getting denied. We are all disabled, and the loss of income has made it impossible to pay the mortgage. I am now two months late, and the mortgage company has told me that foreclosure will begin if I don't make a payment soon. The fear of losing our home and becoming homeless is overwhelming.
My older son, who is 42, has cerebral palsy and needs special care. I am also disabled, and my disability payment is not enough to cover our basic needs. I have tried to negotiate with the mortgage company to lower the payment, but they said it can't be done. I have applied for my grandson's benefits and my husband's, but the process is slow and we are still waiting. Every day is a struggle to provide for my family, and the stress is constant.
The funds raised will help us keep our home and buy essentials like diapers, bed pads, wipes, baby powder, and food that my grandson likes to eat. He used to make a grocery list every week, but now we can't afford the things he needs. Your support will help us stay together and relieve some of the financial stress we face daily. Please, can you find it in your hearts to help us keep our home and support my family during this difficult time.
