I am Lee Heidhues. My wife is Liz Heidhues. I am 78. Liz is 75. My wife is a San Francisco native and retired educator. I am recovering from prostate cancer and Clostridioides difficile (C. diff). My wife is being forced to care for me. We have nobody else. Our home is 120 years old. Nearly 3 weeks ago, our ancient sewer pipes burst. We had a plumbing contractor come out immediately. He considered it a major job. We signed a contract for $60,00. He has done some of the work. As the photo shows, the front of our home, in which we have lived for over 41 years, is now a work site. Our water supply is tenuous. There have been numerous delays. It's unconscionable. I have been hospitalized for nine days. My wife has been forced to take care of this entire crisis on her own. We are on a fixed income and are in danger of losing our home. We are frugal people. We will have to sell our small stock holdings, which we need to live on in expensive San Francisco. Both of us have been life long athletes and lead a very healthy life style. We raised two children utilizing public transit. Our entire livelihoods are at risk. I am reaching out for help in this moment of severe crisis. Should there be a philanthropist in the Bay Area who recognizes our dire situation he/she may be the individual/organization to assist Liz and me.
