I am a disabled single mom with an autistic son. Previously, I worked in the medical field for over 37 years. We relocated to Illinois, and my son recently went through back surgery. I have been taking care of him since he can't stand or sit, and therefore, I am not working.

My disability payments are not enough to get us out of the financial bind that we are recently in. We are currently not homeless but have little else. I am willing to work; however, my nursing license expires in 2 weeks, and I will need to renew it. This will cost me money that I do not have. Since I am disabled, I will need to work from home.
