Hello, I am so very, very sorry to be posting like this but we are desperate. I have been to many agencies and churches and have not heard anything back. We lost our home due to my health issues and not being able to work, I have been applied for disability and I am waiting an answer. I have colon cancer (was in remission after surgery a year ago but has came back) and a mediastinal mass that was diagnosed as a thymoma and is going to be removed next month, this is a major surgery where they have to break my chest open to remove it. After which I will be undergoing chemo for the colon cancer, they are waiting till after my surgery for this. This past week I found out I have high blood pressure and diabetes. I am able to provide a letter from one of my doctors verifying this. My husband works but we are barely making our rent until the disability comes in. I have three children, we do get food stamps but social services cannot help, they only help once per year and they paid our deposit on the house or we were in the streets. I am asking for help of $300 for our electric, help with food and gas so I can get back and forth to the doctor. We have till Friday the 25th of January to pay this. Please someone help me, any amount helps, I am willing to give you the number to the company, Rappahannock Electric or Embarq and our account number if you can help.
