Re: Housing and bill help for Type 1 diabetes
Posted: Sun Feb 11, 2024 9:56 am
Hello,
I am looking to help my brother apply for benefits that may be available for housing and his bills. He is 39, has type 1 diabetes and because of this he went into kidney failure. I actually donated a kidney to him 7 years ago, and unfortunately the road has not been easy and he is in kidney failure again. He does work, but misses a lot due to illness, has 3 kids that he shares custody with the mom, had his vehicle totaled and is without a vehicle currently making it difficult to make appointments.
Benefits he would need for dealing with type 1, housing/rent assistance, income assistance, food, and possible transportation to and from appointments when we are not able to coordinate. He is currently in the hospital awaiting a treatment plan to wait for a kidney donor, and will not have a place to live when he gets out of the hospital. If someone could help me get into contact with the right people to help him that would be great!! Thank you
