Prevent Sarah's eviction

Donation protected
A lot of you know I had a very difficult pregnancy preventing me from work or refiling for disability(I have degenerative disc disease and several other issues i've tried to keep under control for years) and it had taken the entire pregnancy to START getting some case management help.

There is no money in the county to help catch me up on rent, the HUD waiting list is 6 months to a year out. 

I had a cesarean on the 8th of july, about 10 days later emergency surgery for cellulitis and about another 10 days after that I was back in the OR for an abscess. I'm noe under wound care for the next 6 or so weeks and particularly susceptible to more infections. All the while I may have developed chronic kidney issues from the IV antibiotics and other medications. 

My landlord is up my ass and I have no options left. Rent is only 300 a month, o haven't been able to manage that for a while. Now I should be able to within the next month or two with child support and help from cash assistance, but it doesn't negate the fact that as long as i'm this far in the hole she's going to stress me sick and constantly remind me i'm one step from homelessness with my newborn and a very large deep open abdominal wound. 

Asking for help is the last thing i've wanted to do and some of you have helped try to prevent this scenario, but sadly we are here. I need to give her the rent I owe very quickly.

Please if you can skip buying a coffee, or a few beers, or a dinner out and help us, please please find it in your heart to do so. I've gone through so much, I only ask for just a bit of stability. Please, help.
