Needhelppayingbills

I am needing help with this month’s rent. I am working I started with this company 3 months ago and they said it would be full time but I’m only getting 30 to 40 hours every 2 weeks. I have also had to take some time off because my son has diabetes and his sugar levels were dangerously high.
He is not in the hospital anymore. But between trying to work when I can and taking care of him because his levels are still high making sure he checks sugar and takes injections every couple hours. I have not had much time to look for help with rent. Rent was due on the 5th of this month.
I got a letter on my door a few days ago giving me till the 10th before they started eviction. I called them today to see if they could give me a few more days and to see if I could give them half now and the rest as I get it or on my next check which is not this Friday but next. They are willing to give me to Saturday to pay it but they want 75% of the rent which is $659. I have called other places for help some I left messages and some are calling back. Please anything will help. I am in Johnson county Indiana in Greenwood, Indiana.
