Wishful Help Needed

Hello family and friends, I am humbly coming to you using this platform for help. As some my know I lost may husband to kidney disease in January of 2023, and now Im seeking help in maintaining the expenses. Raymond had no life insurance and the 401 savings he had was used for his care, in the begining of his diagnosis for 2 years, to sustain him until he was eligible for Medicare. At that time I went into semi-retirement to be able to care for him and his needs while on dialysis.I recently went back to work and the amt. of salary I make is way less than Raymond's salary. I'm back at work and trying not to get into deep financial hardship. Iam still not receiving any of his union benefits from the IO, and i was told they are behind on alot of applictions for the death benefits. The IO is putting me at date of August 2023, to receive any benefits. I'm trying to do all I can to keep my head above water. Iam not of age yet to receive Raymond's SSA benefits. Iam not in a financial position to entertain other financial options . I'm weighing out all my options to make a way while it seems impossible right now. I'm just needing help until the dust settles from all the redtape I'm having to go through just to live.I really do appreciate any and all help from your generosity at this time. I would like to run this campaign for a month and try to raise as much as possible to have some kind of certainty. Noone can ever truly prepare for an illness that turns to a death, as I'm trying my best to get on my feet and go forward after such an unexpected loss for us all. God Bless you all !!!
