Keep Heidi and Her Dogs Safe from Homelessness

If ur seeing this then u know I’m at the end of my rope. I have tried everything to keep my head above water. Been struggling since December. I got everything caught up in Dec only to have my car start falling apart. Started w a thermostat and motor mounts and kept climbing over the next few months with a heater core an alternator and a oil cooler leak which now has my oil and antifreeze mixing and now in April my starter is shot and my car wont start. I lost the best job I ever had back in the very beginning of March. Now my lot rent, my mortgage, my car loan my utilities and my car insurance has suffered. Im so much in debt. My house is going into forclosure, my car is getting reposessed, and without a car its almost impossible to keep looking for a fulltime job (that offers health ins). Right now I’m having to recieve medicaid just to keep getting my insulin and meds i need for survival. Once i start working the health insurance i will no longer qualify for and i cant go a day without my insulin as my sugar would reach too high for the machine to read and i would end up in the hospital. So its a must i have a way to get my meds i need for survival. I use an insane amount of insulin which is the reason for me being as big as i am as i barely eat as it is. I get foodstamps currently but being a 1 person household that doesnt qualify for much from the state. I havent been on medicaid in an extremely long time as i have always been able to provide for myself and my kids. However my girls r moved out and r barely making it on their own. The emergency housing of gratiot county has been able to help w rent last month but thats all they can do for a year. United way cant help as there is no funding. Same thing for salvation army. The churches go through a company called love inc and they can only help 1 time per year. My own church helped w my car back in December but they have said they cant do anything more either. My water gets cut off on May 1st ( no water means no way to stay clean to keep a job wanting to keep u employed and no way of washing my hands or flushing the toilet.) If rent isnt paid by May 1st the landlord will give me 4 days before she raises my rent $100 for that month and starts the eviction process which will then entail Legal fees. My rent is originally $514/ month. My car is behind about $2000 because i would sacrifice a car payment to make vehicle repairs to keep going to work. My house goes into forclosure after not making 2 consecutive monthly payments of $368/ month. Not including a $36 late fee if paid after the 20th of the month. Im one month delinquent already. The month of May will be my 2nd month. I have had interviews and been practically living at Michigan Works but now my car wont start and i no longer have money for gas. I have 2 dogs that live w me. I have taken great care of them but should i end up homeless i have asked a friend of mine to take them and keep them safe if i end up on the street. She has a lot on her own plate and cant really take on 2 more dogs but is willing cuz 1 of the 2 i got from her and she loved immensely. She has agreed to give them back once i can get my head above water but at this point im not seeing much hope. I believe whole heartedly in God but Im thinking maybe there are others out there that need his help more than I as ppl die everyday. All the bad things in this world and the things children, pets, women, and single ppl like myself have to go through daily is very overwhelming. I’ve never been so scared in my life but I have to believe God wont leave me or forsake me. A GOFUNDME page I didnt think I would ever need but now out of desperation im having to take part in it myself. Please if you have it in your heart to help anything and everything that can be given will be immensely appreciated and will go towards all that has been mentioned! I hope to have a job soon but before i can fo anything about the job now i must find a way to get my car fixed first. Thank u so very much for giving me the time of reading this!! May ur day be blessed and may God aid you in whatever needs u may have as well!! Thank u!!
