My senior dog Wille may suffer because of crisis

I didn't want to do a full brand new fundraiser so for those that have read the story below I'm hoping that you'll take the time to read the next few paragraphs.

I have stayed in this home past February 20th in hopes that my landlord Chad Carlson would understand that as I've continued to wait for social security disability I truly have nowhere to go. At first I thought I had rights only to find out that in South Carolina you can be told to leave your home with 30-day notice for all leases in general become a month to month contract. In speaking with pro boner lawyers I come to find out that this man Chad Carlson can have me leave my home for no reason at all.

On the 15th of January this man was made fully aware that there was an electrical problem on the 16th of January technician came out told us that the house was in code violation for electrical wiring and this landlord Chad Carlson from that time until the morning of January 18th acted as though he was going to work with this issue with me although it could cause me inconvenience with times and my pets. In the state of South Carolina if a landlord acts as though he's not going to fix a solution you can submit a 14-day notice to fix. Because Chad Carlson played as though he was going to work with me and then submitted me my 30 days to leave on January 18th this man manipulated violated and found loopholes within the landlord tenant right. Because I stayed he filed a formal eviction and listed that I didn't pay my rent.

I will go to this hearing in hopes that the magistrate will hear my plea and see that this man did in fact manipulate the system that this man is very callous unethical vindictive and non-caring.

I've also stayed here because I have yet to find a home for two of my animals my dog Bella is deemed an emotional support animal.

Copper who is small and six will have no problem finding a home. My concern is Willie going on 14 with a major ear infection cataracts arthritis some labored breathing.

For those who have known me past future present know that I have a very deep love for my animals they're my children. Because I suffer from physical and mental issues in a world where there's so many labels and stigmas animals with their unconditional love can make you feel a level of some sort of peace and in crisis like the one I'm in can act as your tissue as you cry and they lick your tears.

I stumbled across an article today that literally broke my soul and sent me into a spiral of tears. I truly hope that you read the link I've attached.

Because of this man Chad Carlson and his manipulation has broken my support group which consists of animals so he broke my family as he tries to break me down. I have had some other things looked at from some issues that started in June to also find out that I was right then and that this man only makes shifts repairs so that he can fully profit from this location.

However due to this now 30 day month to month contract there's no protection for myself for my family.

This area is in serious crisis for housing as I'm sure many areas are.

I am preparing to live in my car with Bella my emotional support animal for after the hearing I'm fearful because there's no protection for me even though I do plan to submit the fact that he manipulated me by pretending to work with me to fix the problem only to then serve me a 30-day letter to leave.

I may pay a price for this I will be leaving almost everything I have behind getting some things together to preserve memories things that I think may be important to other family members someday but the biggest price of all is going to be the price paid by my senior dog he'll be turning 14 Willy.

The price that Willie will pay more than likely is his life. I will have to take him to a shelter give him a kiss share some tears and walk away as they take him behind a closed door where he's now lost his protector his mom in a scared environment where shelters are stretched to the limits and although want to be non-kill due to our economy and so many homeless will lose his life.

This is where that article I came across tore me apart so again I hope you read it because this is what I'm going to have to do.

I did not ask for physical and mental health issues and my big man Willie did not ask to lose his life because of my issues but then on top of that because of a man named Chad Carlson who only sees his property is income and could care less about the family inside, an owner who does not maintain the property and sees it only as money.

This man bought this house for $50,000 I have paid that in rent since I've lived here.

Am I angry of course I'm angry. I have had a congressman step in to work with social security administration to try to aid in getting me my approval faster due to the housing crisis but he can't help me with that it's state regulated. I'm not able to rent a new place until I have my benefits approved. You can't rent anything when you have no income to report and no past work history because you've been supporting yourself through selling antiques and art (which I'll be losing the ability to sell because I'm losing my home) that's not a paycheck as what they're looking for. As I've pleaded to this unethical callous individual named Chad Carlson, that with my physical and mental illnesses I'm not able to physically pack I'm mentally shutting down to give me time to get these things in order make the repairs or put me somewhere temporarily until the home is up to code and safe. He informed me that 30 days was more than enough time to get my things in order and then also states that my rent from January Plus my security Deposit is more than enough money, which is a total of basically $1,400 to move to a new place! And since I wasn't able to move before February 20th the money in the letter he sent me to move I don't even have that! This man could care less that I'm physically and mentally not able to move, I don't have my benefits to rent and I'll be living in my car, my loved little babies are being separated from me or worse. My Willie in his senior years may finish his life in fear! I struggle trying to wrap my head around a human such as Chad Carlson who has little to no interest in anything other than himself and the almighty dollar. His tenant since 2018, loses safety my little family broken, and makes a profit!

If you made it reading thus far I'm so grateful I've been told by so many that I talk too much I text too much I write too much that I'm pretty much just too much...

This again would be a reason why my animals are so important to me and they're important to me because their love for me is unconditional as I go through this crisis and I cry and I shake they are there to lick my tears as my tissue Nestle against me like a hug.

If you've never read the other parts of this story I ask that you do I may have repeated myself some when you suffer from mental illnesses and you find yourself in crisis and memory becomes a serious problem in the short term.

Please send your positive energy and love and Hope for myself and my little family.

An updates from my previous descriptions many of you already know that I've lost a little member of my family a pot belly pig his name was pansy. My neighbor who is a lovely individual found pansy a new home and I've had some photos and I've met them and they have goats and some other hogs and some other mini pig type things and he's happy and there's little girl that likes to give him treats. He left a week ago and although some may find it strange to have a pet pot belly pig they're not dirty they're not any of that they are smart they're clean they're sweet every morning after I fed him I get a kiss and sometimes would walk around with dirt on my face forgetting that I kissed a pig!

Please read the link please share my story!

We are truly in need of help but my big guy Willie my protector my alarm system he's the one that means to help the most for if he has to leave me and his family and be left to a hallway to cages to loss of life scared and alone without his mom.

With love and Hope from the bottom of our hearts,

Renee, Willie, Copper and Bella

My name is Renee Scalise, some know me by Renee Grossman.

I feel that I've been fighting for my life since longer than I can remember now. I can say that my problems started in 2007 when I finally achieved my dream goal of becoming a geologist only to have gotten hurt and that dream came to an end.

So many people tell me I'm strong and sometimes I think I am.

I got surgery on my back and 2012 and was fused it S5 l1. I considered my surgery as success for I wasn't in the same amount of pain. During that time I was diagnosed with treatment resistant depression which I have been fighting ever since. Along with the MDD came anxiety PTSB, OCD, ADD add it's been a very long struggle.

Although the physical pain was dulled it's now 10 years later and my new MRI results:

L2-L3: Slight progression of disc space narrowing with diffuse disc bulge. No spinal canal or neuroforaminal stenosis.

L3-L4: Diffuse disc bulge with bilateral facet arthropathy and ligamentum flavum hypertrophy. Mild spinal canal stenosis with mild bilateral neuroforaminal stenoses. Findings are unchanged.

L4-L5: Diffuse disc bulge with bilateral facet

arthropathy and ligamentum flavum hypertrophy, mildly progressed from prior. There is worsening moderate spinal canal stenosis with mild bilateral neuroforaminal stenoses that are similar.

L5-S1: Prior posterior decompression and fusion.

My Cervical MRI

C3-C4: Right uncovertebral hypertrophy and mild facet arthropathy. Mild right neuroforaminal stenosis. No spinal canal or left neuroforaminal stenosis. Findings are unchanged.

Moderate right and mild left neuroforaminal

stenoses. Findings are unchanged.

C5-C6: Diffuse disc osteophyte complex with bilateral uncovertebral hypertrophy and facet arthropathy. No spinal canal stenosis. Severe bilateral neuroforaminal stenoses. Findings are unchanged.

C6-C7: Diffuse disc osteophyte complex with bilateral uncovertebral hypertrophy and facet arthropathy. No spinal canal stenosis. Severe bilateral neuroforaminal stenoses. Findings are unchanged.

This is just what I'm physically going through. My mental health has been a continuous struggle that I still work with a therapist for every other week.

On top of my physical and mental health the landlord where I've been renting since October 2018, June of 22 my landlord has been trying to find any reason to have me vacate the home. It started with an old HVAC that was 35 years old and he insists that the air conditioning works and it didn't he made promises he broke them then he would gaslight me saying I was more than welcome to find a new place to live.

The next gas lit comments were I needed to leave because my dogs were barking even though I could show him proof that was not my dogs for that bark collars it was actually the dog behind me.

He claimed that there was lots of complaints for their neighbors which there was in fact one complaint and one complaint only and when she looks out her door the only dog she sees is the dog that lives behind my house.

His next gas lighting technique was that my yard needed to be maintenance and the roof and the gutters and if I didn't do so I needed to find a new place to live I did as he requested through help from a friend from physically not able to do those kind of things.

On January 15th this year my dishwasher blew up and was smoking and it knocked out the light bulb in the microwave it knocked out my dryer and if you plug the stove in it says bad lime.

He had an electrician come in the next day who said my breaker box was very out of date that the wiring didn't make any sense told my roommate that the wiring would not pass a code inspection. The landlord had it jimmied however the stove if I plug it in it knocks out the whole house. He told me he was going to get it worked on right away to get it fixed that it could be inconvenient sometimes with my dogs but that it needed to be done.

The next thing I know I got a letter in the mail stating that because of the work that needs to be done the house needs to be vacated and I have until February 20th to find a new place to live.

I've called various agencies here that I've been told to call I don't get return calls I was told to call human resource and talk to a woman I talked to her trying to state that this wasn't my fault he can't just kick me out for that then she informed me that if codes came out I could have to leave in 24 to 48 hours.

Apparently if I try to take the landlord to court he can just have the codes inspector come over and say the house is inevitable and I again then have 24 to 48 hours. I truly believe I'm being bullied and the reason that he's been trying to get me out is because of the increase in property value here in Greenville South Carolina where the average rent is $1,200 and I'm currently paying $975.

I have now made contact with a pro boner lawyer that is considered taking my case because I am not in any kind of violation the landlord is.

I applied for social security in June of 21 because of my physical and mental health and I am currently still waiting for any resolve with that.

My my husband left me in January of 2022 and I don't even know where he is and he left me with no income and no way to achieve income.

I was staying a float with trying to sell antiques and jewelry at flea markets but even now trying to carry boxes or anything is that a question.

I had a second cousin that said she was going to move in and help me and we would work together and within 5 days I figured out that she was stealing everything from me so I immediately kicked her out.

Mental illnesses make it very hard to have relationships. I have been fully abandoned by my family I don't make lasting friendships cuz most people can't deal with the way mental health affects people and the people around.

I am 100% alone I have a roommate right now but just like what I'm used to no one knows how to deal with all these illnesses in the physical pain. I have my dogs I have three of them pot belly pig and he was supposed to be a mini pig but he's not but I just don't give up on things. All I've heard is get rid of my animals try to get public housing. My animals are about the only thing that make me feel as though I've loved for there's nothing else in my life.

I'm so scared and I'm so desperate I can't stop crying I don't sleep if it's not physical pain it's mental pain when you know that no one in your family loves you and you don't have friends you know that you've made mistakes with your mental health and things that you didn't mean but you're still human and you still love people and you still try and keep trying to get your mental health under control but treatment resistant is so hard I've been through shock therapy, on Spravto and because I'm in such a delicate point in my life I don't try any new medications because I've already tried like 36 and I'm too afraid to have any of them go wrong because I'm not stable enough.

I don't drink I don't do drugs I'm just trying to find a way to make it in this world my blood work shows that I'm losing platelets and that I have an extremely high cortisol level I ended up with covid and December all I'm trying to do is just live and I feel like the whole world's against me...

If anyone's taking the time to read all this and is willing to help a person keeps trying to fight but keeps getting knocked down and keeps trying to stay on this Earth who really is a good person but she's just sick and so many ways and doesn't have support group, I'm very thankful for your help.

There are many faces of living with chronic pain and mental illness, my cover photo shows 2 of mine.

We are all going through tough times I understand that. If you're unable to help with donations I would please beg you to share my story.

Thank you for taking the time and consideration
