Linda Estavillo hasn't added a story.
My husband, Dave, is a a disabled veteran (13 years Navy). He had a massive heart attack and emergency quadruple bypass 3 years ago and had 2 strokes in September. He still hasn't received any disability pay. His inability to work and my need to provide his care has left us teetering on the brink of homelessness and hopelessness. We are in a HUD subsidized apartment but must pay $1100 in back rent by 12/31/14 or be evicted. All resources have been exhausted and we seem to fall through all kinds of cracks as far as support from the VA and other services.We also owe an electric bill of $196.
I piece together odd jobs but my 1984 pickup has a hole in the radiator and burns oil 2-3 quarts of oil and $20+ in gas a day. It is only by grace that that the truck even still moves. I really need a new one, especially if we end up living in it!
We have no family here except our son, a 21 year old single father who is working but also homeless at this time. He tries to help but his 3 year old son is being cared for out of state until he can get established.
My mind, body and soul are overwhelmed and frayed. I no longer feel passion or purpose. Isolation, fear and despair daily diminishes my will to live. I am desperately seeking some relief and am at my wit's end.
I am embarrassed to ask but PLEASE HELP!
