URGENT: I am a Tribute in The Hunger Games Disguised as Social Services I WILL BE HOMELESS IF I CANNOT RAISE $2,412.10 BY NOVEMBER 16. (RECEIPTS VERIFICATION: Eviction summons and denial letter posted in the photo gallery.) The 14‑day notice has expired; eviction proceedings have begun. This debt covers two months of past‑due rent plus court fees. What happens to me and my service dog, Bransom, now depends on this amount. If I cannot raise the full amount, I face losing Bransom. As a service dog, his role is survival. On the streets, I cannot provide the stable environment or medical continuity he needs. Rehoming him isn’t just losing a companion; it’s losing the medical support system that keeps me alive. I have exhausted every other option. The public aid systems are failing due to systemic failures and funding cuts, forcing me to seek help from Sponsors. "Call 211" is just the funnel into the "broken closed loop": 211 → Charities (e.g., YWCA Seattle King, St. Vincent de Paul, Mysticares, United Way King County, etc.) → Lottery or Denied → Back to 211. The lottery only offers a chance for an application invitation, not aid. I’ve been through this cycle at least twice with over a dozen charities. This is not aid, it’s “The Hunger Games” disguised as social services. I am left with only three options: Pay in full by Nov 16th: Stops the eviction. The only path to survival. Go to court Nov 19th: My attorney advises I will lose. Negotiate to leave: A delayed failure, still ending on the streets. As a diabetic with C‑PTSD, I WILL NOT SURVIVE that Arena. Many of you in healthcare know: controlled diabetes destabilizes without consistent housing and nutrition. Sleep deprivation and hypervigilance from PTSD compound the crisis, pushing me toward acute psychiatric decompensation. This is not speculation; it is the predictable clinical trajectory. This crisis will become Bransom’s and destroy him — which is why it kills me to rehome him. I am turning to you as my Sponsors, my last final line of support. I cannot survive this Arena without you. Your support buys me time to keep fighting and proves your direct support is the most effective way to survive. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN Every contribution makes a critical difference by November 16th, even $10, $20, or $50 helps. If 40 people donate $60, we hit the goal.
