For 2 years I struggled with chronic homelessness while coping with the complications of severe health problems. In 2022 I was able to start getting my feet back on the ground when I established housing for me and my 2 cats "tigger" and "peep".

Just as things were looking up, I fell into a sudden chaos which has recently left me in a position of being unable to pay rent, cover basic living costs, prescriptions and overall an inability to maintain my well being.

If I cannot raise the much needed costs of keeping a roof over our heads, we will be living on the streets of west vancouver.

As many people know, vancouver isn't an easy place to find stable housing.

I am not local to the area and I have no family or people who can offer the assistance needed to stay off of the streets this winter.

I don't have many days left to come up with the money needed to continue keeping this roof over mine and my animals heads.

With a complex history of medical problems, the amount of stress and anxiety I am currently dealing with is enough to push me to a breaking point that my body and mind cannot handle going through again.

I am finally free from my abusive relationship and I fear the possibility of landing myself in his hands again.

I am asking.. begging.. pleading and praying to God that I will receive this help from any good hearted people who have the means to chip in any amount of help we need to stay under this roof I was lucky enough to find in the first place.

I am not asking for much, only enough to strictly budget through this battle while I aim to find work in this city.

If not for me, please show the genuine compassion in your heart for my kitties because they are all I have in this world. Without them, I would have given up on my life a long time ago.

This is all I want and need for christmas and my birthday which is quickly approaching in December.

My only wish for the holidays is staying afloat before our time runs out here.

Currently, I have $5 and 7 cents in my bank account and it will stay that way. I am renting a room for the time being, but that's all I feel I need to stay warm, healthy and safe.

To anyone reading this..

Thank you for giving me your time.

To anyone able to donate anything at all..

Thank you for showing me the humanity most people will never care to share.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

God Bless.
