Dad's Story
-Moved to Seattle for job, contract ended unexpectedly -Currently receiving unemployement, but only covers insurance.
-Has been applying to many places, has several job interviews coming up. With one very hopeful prospective job that would start mid June.

Kay's Story
-Sole, live-in caregiver for 1 year
-To assist in anyway possible, Kay has received a temporary loan on her camera, which was a freelance income source.
***If we get Michelle healthy enough to receive a transplant, Kay will be donating her Kidney.

Sepsis
-As if things couldn't get worse, Michelle was rushed to the hospital with a serious bladder infection, which revealed she was septic as well. 
-An ultrasound of her kidney showed the extent of the loss in functionality. This means she will need regular dialysis in the near future.
-She was admitted for 4 days, on intravenous antibiotics.

Insurance
-After the extensive stay and treatment, insurance deductible only covered so much, 100% tapping out any savings that remained.
-due to the job situation, insurance has lapsed, but we have till the 31st to reinstate it!
**This jeopardizes any care, medication, and possible hospital visit she may need if anything further were to happen.

New Jobs
-After the infections were taken care of, due to medical costs, Kay applied and gained employement, that will start to assist her family at end of May.
-Michael is hopefully beginning work mid June.

*****Rent*****
-Unfortunately due to the circumstances above there was nothing left to cover May rent, and assistance is needed IMMEDIATELY. Our family friend dC has stepped in to help manage and fundraise. We have raised $1310 so far.
-Paperwork was served today, 5/15, with 3 days to raise the entirety of rent and late fees by Friday, or a lawsuit will be filed. There is a possibility of some leeway, giving us till Monday, but this adds more to the late fees.

***MEDS & INSURANCE ASAP
-Michelle runs out of 2 VERY important meds on THURSDAY 5/17.
-Without Insurance they will be $180 but we would rather reinstate her insurance, if possible, putting it all at $630.

Inbetween Needs
As one could guess, due to the things above, we are a little behind on our bills. We will also need a little help with gas and groceries.
