I may survive cancer only to end up homeless

I have never been good at asking for help. I'm the one who always helped others. But I find myself here, asking now, humbled in a way that only getting clean could humble me. 

I have been undergoing cancer treatment for the past year. It has required me to take many trips to San Francisco, where I am being treated, and take much time off work.

I have used all my sick time and vacation time. I have applied for disability but it only pays a portion of your income. I can get reimbursed for some expenses through the VA but I have to have them up front to begin with. Right now my rent is due, I am late on several bills, I am past due on PGE and phone. My car needs repairs so I can get back and forth to appointments. I need gas. My dog's shots are due and he should have been neutered six months ago. Because he's not neutered he can't go to doggie day care where he can have a break from my inability to give him playtime. I just had surgery and will start radiation in three weeks. That's two months without work, without gainful wages. And in that time, without help, I will be homeless.

Choose to help me because I am a veteran, or because I have almost 23 years clean, or because I was a single mom who raised three fine young men, or because I was the first to graduate from college in my family, or the fact that I didn't kill myself as I suffered through severe, debilitating depression for 40 years before I was diagnosed as bipolar.

Any one of those would be a good reason. But choose to help me because I am a human being worthy of help.

My name is Gloria. I live in Humboldt County, California. Please help save me from being homeless as I struggle to deal with the fallout of having cancer.
