    Hello all, I'm Martin Rodriguez (Arnez to many). If you follow online, then you know the last four months have been difficult for me (to say the least). If you are new to me, allow me to share my story. I was hospitalized from May 24th, up to & including my rehabilitation stay. I am scheduled for release on September 28th. I had a terrible crash off my e-scooter. I ended up at the hospital with a broken leg (both tibia and fibula). The bones were so severely damaged one doctor told me they were obliterated below the knee. My journey has involved eight surgeries over nine weeks . During these last few months, I was blessed with donations to keep some of my affairs in order, but sadly during my time in the hospital and the center, I lost my housing. I am now being faced with another unfortunate reality: homelessness. I would never have imagined that I would be faced with such an experience as living in a shelter or worse, but I am accepting of wherever God takes me. I just hope in reading this someone may feel inclined to help me avoid this current situation. I've spent most of my life avoiding such a reality, only to realize it can happen to the best of us. Please help me to find suitable housing during this time!!!
