In Home Hospice Care for Velia Manzanares

Beschermde donatie
In January of this year my mother was diagnosed with Cancer in her chest cavity, we're not sure of what kind it is because she's too physically weak to survive a biopsy. We qualified for a state run in home hospice program for 2 hours a day Monday through Friday but that isnt enough.

Last week my mother had an epileptic seizure and fell, struck her head and had to be hospitalized when the hospice aids weren't there. She cant gauge what day of the week it is and can't safely make it to the bathroom by herself.
She suffers from Epilepsy, Alzheimer's, Sickle-Cell Anemia, COPD/Emphysema, and intense gastrointestinal pain.

Ive had to drop out of school, stop my career as a photographer and get a better paying job in order to afford the loans and credit card debt I've had to rack up in order to afford her medications that charity care wont cover.

Her legal status is up in the air, Ive been trying to save up money in order to apply for her citizenship but because of how much immigration lawyers cost, I havent been able to, therefore medicaid mill cover ZERO percent of anything for her.

Due to a failed relationship where the plan was to have my mother move into where I live, I couldnt afford to pay for an apartment completely by myself, pay her medical costs, and balance a job/work hours to attend to her. I had to get a roommate in order to afford the lease I signed which I thought was gonna be shared with... Yeah. My whole life plan for me and mother fell through even after I had to sleep in an unheated garage with my dog while working the first crap job I found in the beginning of 2019.
I found a better paying job, quit school for it, but after putting 40 thousand miles on my car within the first three months of having my totaled car replaced, the costs in gas, car maintenance, eating while on the road cause I dont have time to cook, and trying to take care of my dog and my mental health im tapped.

I cant afford anything else, so throwing pride away I'm finally asking for help. Ive sold what I could, and if anyone is interested im selling over a thousand dollars worth in my camera gear that Ive had as my career as a photographer.

Im asking for financial help in affording an in-home hospice care aid for my mother, just a couple more hours a week. Someone to look more after her while Im at work and working to pay off the debt accrued which has completely destroyed my credit score.

Anything would help, thank you.
