My Sister's Keeper; Hope for Jill

Donation protected
Nelson Mandela once wrote "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." 

Please help me show my sister that rising is possible ❤ And that life is glorious ❤

My sister, Jill, is a single mom raising 2 teenage daughters. She is a college graduate and has worked as a school counselor and an in home counselor for years. As children Jill always suffered from migraines,  not typical migraines but debilitating migraines that leave the left side of her body completely numb. Over the years these migraines have gotten worse.  2 years ago she had to take a leave of absence from work.  She has been unable to return to work since then. She has had many procedures in the last 2 years but nothing has worked yet. She is currently trying to obtain disability benefits but this is a very long process that has led to more problems such as paying bills, not having gas money to get to appointments, and struggling to provide everyday necessities. In going through all of this she has been battling a severe case of depression.   This part is my biggest fear, depression runs strong in our family and we have already lost 2 family members to suicide.  I refuse to allow Jill's to end. I want to help her to be a survivor.  I want her to be able to send my niece to college next year, to be able to attend graduations and weddings and be there when her daughters have babies.  I want her to live and live strong. But right now she needs our help. 
Jill is one of the least selfish people that I know and she would not ask for this help herself. 
She has already received a disconnect notice for her electric and is very close to being evicted.  
Please find it in your hearts to help in anyway possible,  if not through donations then please share this to help spread her story.  
I want her to know that there is hope and that there are people who care.
Most of all I want her to know that just 1 day can change everything and that she is so very loved. 
I want to Thank you in advance for helping in any way that you can. 
God Bless You.
