About this fundraiser

Hi. I am seeking help to get a place for my son, terminally ill mother and myself. I have been in a relationship with my son's father for 26 years now. We never got married and I am so glad I didn't get married. I recently had to move my mom into our home. My mom had a mobile home of her own but my younger brother and his girlfriend moved in and basically took over everything including her finances. They didn't pay anything. They used my Mom's disability money for drugs and never paid any of the bills so her electricity and water both were turned off. My mom is on oxygen 24/7. She ended up in the hospital so upon her release I made sure to get her to my home. I was working full-time as a CNC machine operator but 2 weeks before Christmas I was laid off. 

My son's father is an alcoholic narcissist. He is mentally and emotionally abusive to me. We haven't slept in the same bed or room in over 10 years. Since I lost my job things have gotten really bad. I have to get my son and Mom out of this situation. I don't know how much more mental and emotional abuse I can handle. I need help with 1st, last and security deposit for another place. I am not 1 to ask for help but I am desperate at this point. I do have 2 job interviews this week. I am trying to raise atleast $8000. I know I am going to need at least $5000 for an apartment and the rest of the money will go towards getting the electricity and water turned on and the rest will go towards food and my Mom's medical supplies. My Mom is bedridden so I need bed bads, incontinence pads, adult wipes and a decent shower chair. 

 If I can get this money raised it would change our lives for the better. Thank you
