Starting over, no health, no money

Donation protected
Hi there, I am Ian.  I am a stay at home father that is disabled. I have lost everything I had when my ex decided to move in with my best frined after stealing all my money and business, my future.

This past August I got into a terrible car accident and lost all of our bikes and camping gear. In fact everything we enjoy really. I suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury as well.

I lost my memory, I am struggling terribly trying to relearn who I am with nothing.  I need move and get into a 2 bedroom unit as my son needs the space.
He is blilliant and a total athelite as well, I cant afford to sign him up for anything. We found a spot on a creek we love and close to his mother and his school, I can recover in the creek and nature is my main love after my son.

I am fighting the WSIB for 7 years now, they created my health problems, and I am taking the ODSP to the human rights tribunal as they cancelled all my money without telling me, leaving me with no mobility device, no way to pay for medication I need, no dental work I must have. and no answers.

The sooner I can get some money going, the faster I can start to get the move on the go.  I can start to take my son places for the first time in years.  We can ride again, with bikes I can travel farther, walking hurts me so bad.

I am truly embarresed to ask for help, it is not in my nature.  But I am trying to allow my son to have something from his father, not just life lessons, but first hand experiences that right now I cant afford.  I have done everything I can to be a great father, having my health ripped away from me through no fault of my own has hurt my son terribly and it means the world to be able to help make this right for him.  I doubt I will be alive when that legal battle is over with.

I think I will cry if help actually arrived, I will cry further as I see my sons face light up when I can actually replace things lost in the car accident.  Take the stress of not being able to pay for things taking of dads mind.  We don't need much, but I need no stress to buy things when I have next to no money coming in.

I don't even remember how much I asked for, anything that will allow me to continue on helping my extrodinary son grow as a person will be fantastic.  I am not looking for a fast car or nice cloths, just proper food fgor Aidan, he loves his fresh brocoli and cauliflower and that stuff is not cheap.  He eats well, I eat once a day.

I just need some help to make this crazy life we are forced to live kind of work.  I thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this far.
