I don’t even know where to start, this is hard for me to do but it would be harder on my kids if we have to move again or have no vehicle to get anywhere so I’m putting my pride aside and im asking for help.. I’m a single mom of 2 my son is 16 he is a great kid but right now we are all trying to adjust to his recent diagnosis of epilepsy. He had his first seizure in October of last year, 3 full seizures and a handful of mini seizures since and every time he has one I have to stay home with him and miss hours at work, that’s how all this started and now I’m so far behind I will never be able to get out with the little bit of income I do get.. We are adjusting meds and doing more test to hopefully one day soon get this under control my 9 year old daughter has been my rock through all of this honestly she is the bravest, most caring person I’ve ever known.. I have always worked 2 jobs just to pay my bills and take care of them but I recently just had to quit my 2nd job because I started Nursing school hoping one day I won’t have to work so much. And now I’m behind on my rent and I have to let them repo my car I just got a few months ago because I can not afford it with this one income.. I kind of regret starting school but I have always wanted to be a nurse and I just keep saying it’s not the right time, when honestly it will never be the right time but if I didn’t start I would never finish.. I really just need help any kind of help.. right before Christmas last year I was forced to move from something that was beyond my control, we just moved in here and I will do whatever it takes to not have to burden my children with moving again.. My son has been in the same school district for 11 years and he is still trying to cope with having Epilepsy while trying to be a normal healthy kid, I don’t need him stressing like he did a few months ago about where we are going to move, will he have to change schools or anything like that.. so here I am reaching out for help.. any amount will help us and will definitely be used to pay my rent. Thank you for even taking the time to read this and thank you in advance for helping us we appreciate any and everything more than you know!
