Re: In appeals process of disability
Posted: Tue Aug 03, 2021 8:03 am
I live in an apartment complex in St Pete and am appealing a ruling from disability. I'm a senior and have 6 disabilities. I'm having a huge problem paying Duke Energy. I've received help in the past from Daystar, Salvation Army and 211 Emergency Fund.
When I first moved here I had money monthly from a trust fund that my mother left me. Then my drug addicted sister got into the computer and stole the "nest egg" that was providing my monthly amount. I have been struggling financially since then. I have a service dog for my seizures and he is now I'll and needs to take medication called Apoquel and it costs $60/month. I have been looking for a job for the last months but cannot find anything that I can do with my disabilities. I'm on Social Security Disability but the day after it comes I pay my rent and groceries and a few side bills...then the money is gone. /That is why I am in the process of appealing how much money I get.
I am really at a loss as to what to do-my panic attacks and vertigo are out of control. Duke will turn off my electric on September 4 if I don't pay the bill (which is a little over $100). This electric billing is going to be a problem until I can find some help. I've placed babysitting posters all over my apartment complex to try and earn some money...no responses yet.
What do I do? I would appreciate any assistance.
