Please help me keep my home while I get better

Hello! My name is Eli Mattson and some of you may know me from Americas Got Talent a long time ago.
I’ve been on an 11 year journey to get healthy and get back to performing for people live in public.
It started at 30 years old, with multiple old back injuries returning, which progressed into multiple health issues that have taken time to learn to live with. Mainly CPTSD and a lot of chronic pain issues.
Now almost 41…Sober 11 years and I did indeed get healthy . But my condition keeps getting worse, and I don’t know why, and it’s slowed down my ability to work enough to pay my bills.
(Updated Oct. 7th)
I originally asked for $2200 to cover October and November’s rent and utilities. so I can get on my feet without having to get evicted and move into my car, with my cat and hamster. It is a miracle that people have almost doubled that.
Thank you so much! To Everyone who has, and continues to donate. I am in rougher shape than I ever imagined after talking with the Dr. (And being very quickly prescribed a mandatory cane) it’s been suggested I leave this go fund me up and running, and focus on getting better, if at the very least functional enough to play full shows in public.
Definitely not what I wanted to hear but my Dr. is working on a plan and getting tests lined up.
Because of you! I have a life together for the first time all on my own, but I have an illness of some kind and I have to find out what it is.
On the positive side I am registered and I’m on the waiting list for all manner of assistance programs and I got my food stamps, so if I can just keep this apartment I truly believe I can get better enough to get back to working some kind of schedule by Christmas.
I performed a Facebook live online show that I will leave posted and be explaining a lot more there. Thank you so much for your time and for reading all of this!
Cheers! ☕️
