Hi....my name is Lisa and my teeny Maltpoo is Bella. She is so precious to me; Bella is also my service dog.
      I've had Fibromyalgia for 17 years, with severe, paralyzingly anxiety and depression for 14 years.
     The past 6 or 7 years have been a nightmare w/ little relief.  I live isolated altho have very kind friends. My condition also causes me to "freeze" where Im unable to move for hours, along w/agoraphobia (fear of going out).
     Few years ago, I found two treatments that greatly improved my symptoms....started to feel hopeful and even joy! If had been able to continue (money), I felt I could eventually work at least part-time.  I love so much of what life has to offer, but I am trapped with this illness, with family far away, and with living  below poverty level.
     My wonderful parents pay 2/3 of my rent.  (Even w/help, most months I'm unable to pay all bills.) September is last month my parents are able to help due to their own illnesses. I want to, and should, be helping them.  Paying my rent will alleviate their worry, at least. 
     I live in their 5th wheel...to be sold end of Sept.
     I'm desperate and frightened now.  In less than 5 weeks, I need to find a new place to live and pay all expenses. I also must get treatment as I can barely function...hanging on by a thread.  I'm almost an invalid, and scared for me and my puppy.
      It is embarrassing to ask for help/money.  I'm very grateful for any assistance, big or small! you can offer...perhaps share my situation.
      I need money for shelter for at least 9 months, along with help to get to treatments to strengthen me. I believe in less than a year with this help,  I could be healed at least 75%. Then I'd be able to work/find ways to support myself and help others.
     We need help immediately, please. I don't know where else to turn, and I'm asking God to direct my steps. I will go ASAP for treatments when have money.
     God bless you for taking the time to read our story. Lisa and Bella:)
