Help Caity Find Safety in Massachusetts

Donation protected
Assisted Living is now no longer an option. I need to move to a different state. Washington is unlivable and I have already experienced what being on the brink of starvation feels like.

Hi, my name is Caitlyn (Caity for short), and I'm raising funds as a means of getting out of my abusive household. This last month has been incredibly stressful, and every passing day makes me feel even less safe with my father around. This gofundme is important to me as I could finally get away from the constant instability and fear.

I am trying to get into assisted living, as I am disabled and cannot work, nor can I take care of myself much anymore. I'm losing use of my right leg, and walking has become increasingly painful. But unfortunately, that costs a lot... And unfortunately, I would be breaking the lease my parents have in our current house. So while I am afraid of continuing to live with them, I wouldn't want them to suffer thanks to me...

The assisted living facility I found that will take me (as I have an emotional support pet) costs $5,090 for moving in. Breaking the lease costs $5,000, and I want to ensure my family has something left over for funds to move as well... If I cannot get into the assisted living facility, then all funds will go to moving us across the country to a safer place as our current situation isn't safe or sustainable. Anything extra will go to paying off my wheelchair in full and getting my family a much needed functioning car

Funnily enough, if I were to tell my mom this, she'd tell me not to as I should only focus on myself since they aren't my responsibility to take care of... But they're still my family, and I'd do anything for them. Even if I need to get away from them first.
