Dear friends, Michelle needs our help!

Donation protected
Hello my name is Jenny
I've been friends with Michelle for 8 years. I have started this GoFundme for our friend because she's in dire need right now. As of last year, Michelle is legally permanently disabled. She has a hard time walking, and often must use a walker. To make matters worse she fell and broke her ankle really badly this year. She has been in a wheelchair for almost 5 months. She can not walk or drive. Her children have moved and she currently has no help. She often has to ask strangers on the street if they will help her get to a store and back. She applied for help through IHSS program, (In home Support Services) but the process has been taking months for approval. She needs help getting to the store and back for groceries, doing laundry, and taking care of her animals. She only gets $100.00 food subsidy a month and that is impossible to live on. She can't pay her bills. On top of all of this she has been unable to pay her storage fees, and her storage contains her mother's ashes and her children's childhood photos. Michelle is also unable to afford rent where she lives and is facing being evicted at any moment. She also needs help getting back and forth to doctor's appointments. She is severely depressed because of all of this. I'm hoping raise awareness of Michelle's situation, and hoping we can raise enough money to give Michelle some relief until she can find a better living situation. Also, to help her get to her storage and at least be able to retrieve her mothers ashes. Please donate if you can. Even small amounts will be a huge help.
Thank you
