Kalena Emrys hasn't added a story.
The last dozen years have been unbelievable.
My husband and I are both disabled. We've both got Fibromyalgia and PTSD. I'm Autistic with Major Depressive Disorder and anxiety disorders and my husband Rich has severe arthritis all over.
Ten years ago we lost the home we owned and half of our possessions
then had to drive cross-country to New Mexico with what we had left to
try to start over. We were thrown out early which enabled the
apartment complex I was working at to take advantage of the fact we
needed a place earlier than it would be legally ready to rent and then
claimed everything in the entire place was NOT destroyed when we got
there but BRAND NEW. They billed us $4,000 as we were put out on the
street AGAIN and put that on our credit report. We got a crappy little
cement box in the desert to stay in but it's owned by a slum lord, (no
one else will rent to us now that we "skipped" on what they
claimed we owe). We've had to go without any vehicles trying to keep
the lights on, and now that I've REVERSED Diabetes completely, lost
150 lbs, quit cigarettes after 24 years and a bunch of other things,
I'm no longer UNhealthy enough to get the medical assistance that was
keeping the lights on, they're due to be shut off August 30th, then
we'll be evicted for not being able to provide the electricity for TWO
residences on a single residence lot and let him pay us back for it.
He's left us with broken plumbing for three weeks once, four weeks the
next time. Nine years of this slumlord!
THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE
My husband's parents have got us a place to rent back HOME in
Illinois and there's work waiting for my husband there as
well. They're also raising funds to get us there from
Albuquerque but it's 1,200+ miles AND WE NEED YOUR HELP TO
ESCAPE THIS HOLE.
