Please boost this. The last 3 years of my life has been constant suffering and chaos and words cannot express how tired I am. Or family needs so much right now but we will settle for some food
We are no longer in panic mode and im very grateful. More than words can express. Also enough of my anxiety is relieved that I can explain our situation a little more.
I am a disabled, mentally ill, middle aged adult with a 12 year old child whose father is not in the picture and is still paying the minimum child support from what he was making 11 years ago. Yes I have an SSI application in the works but we all know how that goes.
We live with my (very friendly terms) ex boyfriend and his mother; they both work minimum wage jobs but the ex only started working 2 months ago (recently enough that I still feel extreme pride telling you that he got a job) and we are still playing catchup on bills; and his mum has been very ill lately and missed some work because of it.
The state we live in has jerked me over repeatedly on food stamps and theres basically no cash allowance/TANF (getting the cash would be a harder fight and comes out to less than ten dollars a month). I recertified in April and they are claiming I was due for another in June– which I did not receive notice about and which I could fight, but fighting it would take longer than just reapplying.
I don’t drive and we live in an extremely rural area with no public transport so I had to have them send me the paperwork in the mail. It came this afternoon unfortunately! Since Friday is our drivers only day off and she had to take the ex to work. So it will be literally another week from today, 21 July 2018, before I can turn in my paperwork and proofs, and not til the week after that I will actually receive anything. In short, despite the help we’ve received which we are indescribably grateful for, we could still use an assist.
TL;DR:
We are still in need of money for food and maybe some help with the electric if anyone can assist us further. We are trying. We are sorry. Any overages we get will be saved for the next emergency.
