Disability leading to medical bill and rent issues
Posted: Sat Oct 03, 2015 7:06 am
We moved from Galion Ohio to Cleveland Ohio in June to aid in caring for my husband's step mom after my husband's dad passed away in August. She had bed bugs and denied it when we moved in. She has since moved out on us and left us with her bugs. In April, I started breaking out in massive hives covering most of my body, and was in and out of local ERs for the first few weeks. I have had massive hives constantly since then. That's when we discovered the bugs.
I have literally hundreds of bumps and scabs covering my body to the point of wearing long pants daily to avoid the uncomfortable looks, comments, and questions. I never know what part is going to swell when, and I sometimes have serious facial swelling to the point of carrying a set of epipens at all times. I've only been at my current job for 4 months (since we moved in), and my credit score is extremely low. This is causing medical bills and other challenges.
My husband has been fighting for disability benefits for the medical issues nearly 5 years with no luck. The place we were in before this last move was a lease with purchase option with room enough for our family and was (and still is) in our budget monthly. We love that area, the neighborhood, and the house we were in. The house is still available and the owner would love to have us back, but since we moved out, she hasn't been able to make the payments on it, and requires 4,000 as a down payment. We can't come up with that on our own and our families are battling their own crises and cannot help there. The community action center there isn't allowed to use their down payment assistance fund to move people into the county, so I need to know if I have a possibility of getting assistance with the down payment to move there? I don't know who to contact about this, but I have hope that you can point me in the right direction.
