Hello, my name is Taylor Ingram and I'm starting this Gofundme page for my 75 year old dad, Lance Ingram, and my 71 year old mom Brenda Ingram. Since December 23, 2019, they have experienced a domino effect of unfortunate circumstances. On December 23, 2019, their house caught fire. They were then placed in a home by a private public adjuster's relocation person. They paid a year’s rent to live in temporary housing only to find out from the property owners that they were squatters. While waiting to get back into their home and while he was in the hospital, my dad's identity was stolen. They had to file two complaints with the states attorney’s office and 2 police reports against the relocation person and the private public adjuster. On Thanksgiving 2020 we found out both my parents had covid. My dad was hospitalized for over a year and was in 5 different facilities. The last facility was not covered by insurance, and it was an out-of-pocket expense for my mom. She used their savings and revenue from their small business. This caused a financial hardship. My mom returned to their home alone in January 2021 and my dad returned home on December 24, 2021. Because of the length of time that they were out of their home (almost two years) and the expenses from my dad’s illness from covid, they have accumulated debt. They are now in jeopardy of losing both their home and small business. I would like help in saving my parents’ home and business. Any donation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
