UPDATE 3/18/26. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE NOT REACHED OR EXCEED THE GOAL. FOR THE SAKE OF EXPEDIENCY AND BECAUSE I WAS NOT FAMILIAR WITH GOFUNDME, WE SIMPLY EDITED A PRIOR FUNDRAISER.

WE STILL NEED $3200. PLEASE GIVE WHAT YOU CAN.

My name is SuzyQ.

So many of you have generously helped us in the past with basics such as heating oil and we are truly grateful.

Now things are truly dire. Due to unpaid property taxes, we will lose our home on March 31. A friend is helping me to find an attorney but we need $3500 immediately for the attorney fees and the court filing fee. Filing bankruptcy will stop the foreclosure. We are trying to obtain a reverse mortgage but we don’t know if it will come through on time.

We simply do not have any money.

As all of you know, after moving upstate three years ago, I hoped to find work and settle into a new chapter, but my health took a turn for the worse. I have never smoked, but I was diagnosed with heart failure, pulmonary failure, COPD, and asthma. I now have a small pacemaker and rely on an oxygen machine 24/7. It’s still unbelievable to me that I’m this sick, and it’s been a difficult adjustment.

Because of my health, I can no longer work. My mother and I are living off social security, which barely covers our basic needs. As you know, we have had trouble just with the basics such as heating oil.

Please send what you can as quickly as possible.

I’m so sorry to be asking for help again. I know and adore many of you, and I hope you can find it in your hearts to support us during this difficult time.
