My husband and I have been married for almost 3 years. We have had a hurdle after another trying to just survive. After we got married everything was good and then about 9 months into our marriage my husband was injured on the job and was on disability for along time and is still on partial disability. The day he went in for surgery I lost my job as well. I too am living with an auto immune disease and was told by the doctors I have a good 2 years of working left and then I would be unable to... work anymore and then I would have to file for disability.
We have a great apartment and have struggled to keep it in the last 3 years. We are trying to rebuild our apartment to make it our home. It is a bi-level. Our kitchen, bathroom, laundry room and half bath are down stairs and our upstairs is 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom. The down stairs is kitchen, bathroom and laundry room is ceramic tile and our living room is a hard wood floor. The upstairs is all carpet except the bathroom which is linoleum. This is the perfect apartment and we have lived here since March of 2012 and don't plan on moving. We have a great landlord and are happy with the neighbors on our street which is a dead end street. We are finally after 3 years getting back on our feet. I also have 2 kids that I had to send to live with their dad because we simply couldn't afford for to take care of them. We would love the opportunity to just catch a break instead of constantly jumping hurdles! Thank you for this opportunity and whomever wins this incredible gift would be a very lucky person! Read More
