Support for a Family After Tragic Loss

Donation protected

Hello, I am a mother of 3 and have had the worst few months ever. I am a 911 dispatcher and have been for 10 years now. I have taken to many tragic calls in that time and have felt the pain & heartache from each caller when they have had to call 911 for a loved one. I just never thought that my work would be responding to a call for my own family. My oldest son unexpectedly died right before Christmas on Dec 17th, which is also just 1 month away from his 21st birthday. He was at a friend's house playing video games, and his heart just gave out. My heart is truly broken and I am having a hard time going I dont have all the money to pay the funeral expenses so I havent been able to bring him home after his cremation. I really need him home with me!
While trying to figure out how I am going to do this my vehicle was repossessed. I have paid the payment but I dont have an extra $600 for the towing & storage fee they are charging and now my landlord is threatening eviction cause I couldnt make December's rent and now I am late for January too. I am not just looking for a hand out. I have a job, but I haven't been back to work yet. It's been hard to think about helping others again during their emergency when I am still so broken from mine. I just cant loose our home, and I dont know how to figure all this out with this huge hole in my heart. This is the home my 2 other children live at who are also trying to grieve the loss of their brother. I hate asking for help, but I am in so much pain from the loss of my son that I can't figure this all out. So, I am putting my pride away and stepping out of my comfort zone. I just need a little help to get us back on our feet and give me a little time to grieve so I can figure out how to live without him and how to go back to helping others during their emergencies. Anything would be greatly appreciated, even just sharing or keeping my family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.
