I never would have thought I’d ever be needing to a Go Fund Me campaign. But Brendan and I are desperate for help. This time last year we were the happiest we’ve ever been. We were living in a beautiful new home with a man I’d fallen deeply in love with. Brendan started his new school and for the 1st time in a long time he was thriving and happy. That all changed in March of this year when on Brendan’s 17th Birthday I was given 4 hours notice that my Boyfriend was moving out. By the next day he was gone. I gave myself a moment to crumble & then I picked myself up, dusted myself off and found us an affordable 2 bedroom apartment in the school district  for us to start over. We moved in on May 17th of this year. On May 23rd I lost my job. I immediately updated my resume and hit the job search boards every day. I’ve sent hundreds of resumes out but nothing has surfaced.  I was recently diagnosed with DCIS. I’ve been delivering pizza to get some money but it’s just not enough.  2 weeks ago our electric was disconnected and we sat in the dark for 5 days until Norwescap was able to help us get it turned back on. I’m 2 months behind on the rent and my car payment. The car insurance is ready to be cancelled and I am facing eviction. Brendan is a Senior in a school that he loves and is finally thriving in. I’m desperate to keep him in it so that he can graduate with his class. I don’t like asking anyone for help so this is extremely humbling for me. We’ve applied for assistance and right will get food assistance but nothing else at this time.  We need help to get back up on our feet and stay in our home while I continue to job search.
