Hi everyone... so this is really hard for me to 1. Air my personal buisness 2. Ask for and need help... it's not just about me tho... I will start out I am a 31 year old single mother of 2, a 10 year old girl and 9 year old boy. They are my everything... I have recently(this year) been diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma, which in not so fancy terms a form of breast cancer... I had to quit my job because I have wayyy too many treatments and or doctors appointments to hold down ANY job... I am also in the middle of a divorce because my soon to be ex husband is/was extremely abusive. My mother is deceased and my father has never been in my life, my point is I have noone I can ask to help me. I only have about 3 true friends and I have just about drained their finances as well... I have applied for social security and unemployment and have not heard back or received anything yet. I am at a loss of what to do anymore. ALL of my bills are past due, my kids need things for school which starts September 9th, and I have no way of getting any income or money. I haven't paid my rent in I couldn't even tell you how long, they have an eviction ban due to covid, and I'm scared because that is set to expire in October (atleast where I live in NY). I DO NOT want my kids and I to be homeless, I've looked into section 8 and HUD housing, there is a very long waiting list. And honestly I don't even really want to stay in the same county I am in. My abuser frequently tries to contact me still even tho their is an order of protection, I just need to get us a good distance away... I want to feel safe again. If anyone can help me and my kids I would be forever GRATEFUL... I really do not know what else to say, I have never felt like such a failure in my life (Mainly because I cannot currently support my own kids).
