Support a Father and Child Facing Eviction

Hello whoever's reading this,

I'm sitting here writing this with a bit of disbelief. I'd never thought that I'd be put into a position where I would have to be so openly asking for help. My wife and I have been married for about 6 years and during that time she has struggled with addiction to fentanyl. She did well for a long time, even made it through a pregnancy. But unfortunately, after giving birth and almost a year later, her getting pregnant and miscarrying, she really started losing her battle with her drug addiction. It started off small but has gotten to the point where it is her drive now, and not her family. Recently, we have gotten behind in our hotel room rent. The management at the hotel that we are staying at has been very forgiving and has worked with us way more than they probably should have. We paid the majority of the week, but my wife spent what should have gone to our hotel to catch us up, and now the management has threatened eviction if I don't come up with the $150 by tomorrow morning. They have been a blessing and in no way, shape, or form am I mad at them for having to do what they say they have to do. I have until Friday to come up with $150 and then again $480 on Saturday and I probably need another week of rent as a buffer. So a little over $1,100. My wife's drug addiction has overtaken her in that she's been gone now for days and it doesn't look like there's an end or an idea of when she's going to come back. I'm now left with 2 dogs and a year and a half little girl, a hotel room full of stuff, and the Subaru Forester to fit it all into if we lose our room. I really don't know what to do, and I'm even a little embarrassed to have to write this. If I can get a couple of weeks or even a month of rent set up ahead of time, I know I can make it. I have wonderful friends who have offered to help me watch the baby while I work, but the amount of money that I have now isn't enough to cover what I need. My hope is I can get enough money together so that if my wife is willing to do rehab, I can get her to do it and still pay bills, and if she doesn't, I'd be able to maintain working and a home while she's gone. I'm hoping that things work out for the best, but I'm also trying to prepare for if they don't. I was encouraged to do this as a desperate plea of Hope so here I am reaching out. If you can donate thank you if you can't well thank you for taking the time in reading this.
