The Pattison family

Donation protected
Hello my name is Brad, I’m not one for asking for help or donations but our family is in a time of need and help through tragic situations that have occurred. I am the oldest son in the family with a younger brother aged 17 and with two older sisters aged 21 and 26. 
Im not sure where to begin, but four years ago we sadly lost our mother Sylvia, she was in great pain and was slowing getting worse each day, and it brought devastation amongst our family, especially my dad who now had to watch over 4 kids by himself. It has been very tough and confusing without our mum here but dad did his best to look after us even through all the troubles he went through. My father was a disabled man and our financial situation as a family was already difficult, but we stuck together in the past years to survive. He struggled a lot without his partner with him (my mother) but he told us the only reason he is still here was because of us. 
But sadly, our father and the greatest man I know tragically passed away a couple months ago, I built such a relationship with him over the years that I’m left shattered everyday. He was a great man and a father beyond description, he did everything for us no matter how hard it is for us just for my family to survive. 
That is why I’m posting this, right now our family is in not only a bad emotional state, but also a financial one. We are worried about bills and being able to afford a home to live in, my younger brother can’t afford to learn how to drive or buy a car and can’t afford education and without a parent he is lost in life no matter how hard I try to guide him. 
Also my oldest sister Vicki, has multiple sclirosis, she has been suffering for a few years now and it gets to her everyday, it’s shattering to see her suffer like that especially after what has happened already. She goes through a lot everyday to just survive and hope to get better. 
My second oldest sister has a 1 year old baby, she has moved out but is also struggling a lot financially not being able to work and look after the baby. 
For anyone reading this thank you for taking your time to read through it I know it’s a lot, but our family would be truly grateful and thankful for any donation and support, it will come a long way with helping us build a life together to live in without such a struggle with everything. We are super thankful for any support and thank you for your time.
