Hello, I'm on here trying to raise funds to survive and start over. 3 weeks ago I had a stroke. While I am healing, I am still unable to drive (double vision and torsional and spatial vision changes), and the discoordinated, ragdoll-like movements prevent me from working. Before this, I was a mobile dog groomer and owner of Feather Paw Mobile Spa. My son is now taking over the business, and I'm a couple of days away from selling my beloved grooming van, as it is too expensive to keep while I'm not able to work. I'm selling my house to pay off a HELOC loan that I used to start the business, my remaining mortgage, and the larger of approximately $60K worth of debts and loans that I literally cannot keep up with. My dream is to be able to afford a two-story Gambrel Amish shed and convert it into a tiny home that I can put on my grandmother's property. Disability still hasn't kicked in, and I really don't know either way if I've been approved or denied. My 2 adult sons are paying my house bills for me, along with the insurance and truck payments, best that they can keep up, but it's all starting to fall behind. I hate to ask or be a burden to anyone... I've always been the main breadwinner, and this has been a huge adjustment in every way conceivable. If anyone can donate anything, I would be so grateful. I feel terrible having my sons take such a burden so soon, and the fact that I'm only 42 makes this sting more. Thank you even if you just share this. Bless you even for your kind thoughts.
