Hi, everyone. I moved here to Dyer 4 years ago. I do Gardening mid april to mid november, for Elderly people and some of their offspring, have for over 30 years. I have had a pretty hard last 3 years. MY loving Frank learned he had Pancreatic cancer Dec 21st of 2020. He passed the next July 13th, 2021. Then my Mom, Carole, born on Christmas Eve 1935 went to assisted living Jan 2021, spent most of my time there in between gardening jobs. She turned 88 last Christmas eve and then passed Jan14th, 2023. This was my first Christmas without her. I Also just found out on Christmas that my love Frank' s Mom passed the wednesday before Christmas and I was not allowed to go to services cause they were private just for family. FranK and I were not married, but I was the one who was with him everyday and for every treatment and everyday needs. He wanted me to be the one even though he had 6 siblings. My family is really small, so I ended up home, by myself for Christmas because the starter went out in my car the Monday before Christmas. Not asking for sympathy, just letting you know I am lonely in need of some friends and funds to get my car starter fixed. None of my friends live around here. I am still stuck here because my pocketbook does not have the funds to fix car. First time in my life I can say " I am soo poor that I can not even Pay Attention. LOL. Anyway HOPEFULLY I can meet some people that would possibly help, if not that is Ok. I may be almost 68, but I have energy of a 35 year old. I have 2 pet ferrets, Tweety and Rambo. That I have to feed and take care of. I have one neighbor who will give occaisional rides to food pantry or store, but other neighbors are very to themselves. I really do not have any family left, except for brother and sister. Sister has short term memory disabiliy and I am her agent that does all her stuff for her as she does not drive., can not do that without my car and have to bother neighbor to help. My brother used to help with car, however he is having surgery for spinal stenosis in back and neither of us have the funds to pay for starter and mechanic fees. Been going to local church to get food at pantry my neighbor took me. Never been in this situation before. Please help if you can. Just a couple thousand dollars will hold me till I can garden in end of April. Isn't it funny how I have gardened for these people for 5 to 39 years and none of them have offered to help me with this. And they absolutely love how I maintain their yards.
