Hoping for help to be able to keep my home of 19 years.

Hi all, I am fighting to hold on to my apartment of 19 years. I am soon going to court within this month to try to fight this from happening, however, I do not have the full amount needed as the court date was set five months ahead when I filed an answer to the petition and was not able to bring in a roommate which has compounded my financial downfall. I have struggled with an autoimmune disease which is Rheumatoid arthritis and it is debilitating to say the least. If I am not able to stay here being older and with an eviction on my report for seven years, I will truly have nowhere to go. There is much more to this story concerning the landlord not fixing crucial things in the apartment and also forms of harassment, when I would address these issues, it would start again and now while waiting for the court date, I have financially become vulnerable. A roommate is crucial to my survival to stay here!, I'm at a loss in how I can sort this out before court within the coming days. Time is short and this is a shot in the dark but I will give it a go while trying to get ready for court. I had on a couple of occasions reached out and asked that we sort this without court and offered a two year lease as an olive branch while making an agreement of catch up meaning more money for them in the long run but to no avail! I understand on their side this is business but i've been here 20 years by the time this gets to the point of eviction. At the end of the day, no matter what is going on here, I need a roof over my head. I am in no condition to just wing it out there should I lose my apartment. I have hesitated to do this and swore I wouldn't but as time draws near I am going to have to try! Any donation I receive will go right into the amount needed to be able to stay and be able to argue my case in response. If you could donate any amount and share, I would be incredibly grateful. Thank you to the kind strangers who are reaching out to help in donations. God bless you all!

Thank you for reading and your consideration, Bless Lucy x
