REQUEST FULFILLED Short for bills 24M

August 18th i was diagnosed with stage 2 brain cancer, by August 30th i was out of work due to my rapidly declining health. I was able to pay the mortgage and our other bills with what we had in savings, by the end of September I was hospitalized for my kidneys failing from a medication reaction. I have since been sent home and am looking for remote work to make ends meet but so far I haven't found anywhere that'll take me, I've joined Prolific which helps provide a little but I'm still short for our utilities for the last 2 months. Ive managed to get the mortgage to accept reduced payments until January but im still months behind on utilities. I feel awful asking for anything but I'm effectively bed ridden and don't have much of a choice otherwise.

It looks like you met your goal on GFM, which is awesome!! Losing your dog too??? I’m sorry about it all but the dog part hit home. They are truly a huge part of my own support system. I’m guessing same for you.

Hopefully better soon and can maybe look for a new pooch, once you are well enough to handle a new dog, they can be work.
