Do not wish for family of 6 to be homeless with disabled mother.

My name is Jessica Madsen. In 2008 I started passing out and they could not figure out why followed with severe migraines. I was put on medication and for the most part did fine till this last December. The medication has given me memory loss, for some reason has paralyzed me on my left side, my bladder, and bowels are not working as they should, and I cannot swallow properly. I have 4 children from the ages of 16-9. I feel like I'm robbing them of their childhood and putting so much pressure on my husband. I cannot work due to the memory loss and physical incapacitation. We are behind on rent, and Utilities and are facing losing our home, and if we managed to keep it the utilities. Our strongest wish is to keep a roof over our children's heads. Our rent is $850 a month and our utilities are behind in the amount of $515 dollars. My wish is to just have a stable roof over our heads and utilities on. We get food stamps right now and make due with what we get from them. I have several breakdowns, because I feel like our predicament is my fault. Our church can no longer help us, and I can't work. My husband is seeking a second job he is good with computers, and also does welding. Our wish is to have a job that supports our family and a stable roof over our heads. If someone could please just help us pay our rent and utilities this month that would give us more time to find something that might work for us. Thank you and god Bless!

Please if anyone could just help a little, we would be so thankful. Our family is due to end up in a homeless shelter in about a week or two and I'm terrified for my children. Even a little to buy some more time we are looking like crazy just not having any luck. Thank you and god bless!

sarahsmile312 I do not mind if you pm me about this privately. Where would you like to talk? I am new to this site so I do not know how to PM you. I will see if I can figure it out. Thank you everyone for keeping us in your prayers it really means a lot. The power company will not work with us. They will only work with you once per year and we already used that. I applied for disability was denied and now have a lawyer to help get it to go through he said I have a strong case. It's just going to take time and I don't want my kids to be homeless in the meantime.

Definitely apply for disability and try to work out an arrangement with the power company for right now. Hang in there! There are heroes out there. If you have not also looked into food pantries in the area that may help alleviate some of the burden.
