Re: Widow with chronic PTSD

Hello there my name is Angela. I am a disabled widow of 6 years with chronic PTSD.
I have been struggling with all sorts of conditions since my husband was unfairly taken away from me. This area is mostly poor and the resources are very limited. I have had to rely on charity monthly.
I receive 1083.00 monthly. I am living in the most depressing state, with PTSD, anxiety and more. I am Fighting rats every night and house is falling down around me. I have fallen through floors I have to put blankets over windows just so the window ac unit will have a fighting chance to cool off my trailer.
I stopped going to the doctor years ago and go to sleep every night praying for a miracle to deal with my chronic conditions, PTSD and issues. But I wake up daily in pain from so many operations on my spine and I don't want to be on pain meds anymore. I lost my car when my husband died and simply can not get a loan for a new one and I can't afford to come up with down payment plus insurance.
Dixie County does not have public transportation and the service's for medical visits is not very easy to accept because I have such pain sitting in one position to long my room mate has a growth on his voice box and has no vocal society when I can't take care of myself and I am 56 years old. My room mate and I are grateful we own our house and property so things could be worse. I couldn't get to the grocery store this month the dollar store is so expensive and it's not healthy food.
Suwanee River Economic Council has been wonderful but I need someone who can come see for themselves
