<div>First of all.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is a very personal and hard thing for me to do, I usually never ask for help, but now I don't know what to do, as I am in a situation where I'm now forced to ask for help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So I created this campaign in hopes that anyone would support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Currency:
</div>
<div>NOK 200,000 = Approx: $18,530 (Not 100% accurate!)
</div>
<div>(Used Google to convert)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Backstory
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My preferred name is Leto, I am a 29 year old Norwegian citizen, living 375 kilometers north of the arctic circle.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have lived in Canada, and Germany, basically trying to catch a break from the life I'm currently living.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But while living in Germany, I realized just how stupid I've been, trying to escape problems, and while video chatting with my mom, she has been quite stressed about the situation with her house, that I grew up in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So I realized when living in Germany, I had it pretty good, but my mom had it terrible, I saw the house I lived in, and I got that feeling that I just escaped that, but it didn't feel right, so I decided to move back in with my mom, to help her renovate the house, not knowing what financially pressure and emotional stress I'd put myself into.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But me and my mom has gotten far with the house, and now we have met our most difficult obstacle, last winter was pretty rough, landing 2-3 meters of snow, so the roof took quite the weight, and it's also old, like overdue for a replacement, for many more winters to come.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038220186513_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The house was built in 1975, and back then, roof shingles had a maximum life span of 15 years, but nowadays, it's 30+ years.
</div>
<div>And the roof hasn't been replaced once.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So the roof is over 20+ years overdue, and I am pretty stressed because my mom counts on me with the finances, as I am a simple artist who draws for a living.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am doing all I can to help her so we wont lose our house, because the house is in one of the best places in my town, and that'd be a huge loss if the roof collapsed to mold and rust.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So my close friend suggested me to this GoFundMe, which I don't really feel comfortable with, because I don't like to ask for money, I've put all my own money into this house since I moved back last year, and it's damaging my own health and life, so GoFundMe is our only hope.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The money will be spent to have professionals, repair the roof.
</div>
<div>If we don't meet the goal, we may have to take a loan, which I really want to avoid since my mom already have a huge loan to pay off.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I would tremendously appreciate any amount of help, whether it be a donation or sharing this campaign with others, It'd help my mom to have a functioning house without going into more debt.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking your precious time to read this, it means a lot to me and my family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And thank you if you decide to support us with this huge project, even sharing this campaign is a lot, as it'll reach more people who may want to help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pictures of the Roof and other damages.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Roof was red originally.
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>2 inch nail to hold the ladder in place pulled out by the weight of snow.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038284651759_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Shingle ripped off but glued back.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038311384898_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Holes and rust on roof drains.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038334789383_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Wood bricks placed to help water flow the right way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038363907950_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Could probably drain some spaghetti water using this corner.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038397982170_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mold in the bathroom around the ventilation, suffering a lot of water dripping during winter as heat rises to the roof top, melting the snow, causing water to flow in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038424384193_r.png" width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Other damages, I am surprised the porch is still standing, despite the rotten material, it's very dangerous to walk on it as everybody have to walk very carefully.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/81939927_1723038453658069_r.png" width="100%" />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Okay enough about these horrific pictures, here's a very beautiful one to show that there is something positive about this place.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here's a picture of our oldest cat, Leo, in the beautiful summer sunrise.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div>And sunset,
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anyways, I wont take more of your time, but I want to thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart, to take the time to read this campaign and hopefully show generosity by either sharing or donating, as it really means a lot to me and my family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sincerely,
</div>
<div>Leto
