S.I. is a young mom we have been assisting since August of 2009. She has three children under 6 and a Stage 4 diagnosis. Her husband lost his job before she was diagnosed and their house was fast approaching foreclosure. We were able to help keep them afloat with utility assistance, food cards, Target cards and gasoline cards.
Their eviction date was January 31st, 2010. She had just finished her first round of chemo treatments and was resting at home after her breast surgery when her husband died of a massive heart attack on January 10th.
We are now in the process of trying to help her find affordable housing for herself and the children. She has no other family that can help out. The neighbors have been great watching the children and picking things up at the store. Eviction has now been pushed back to the end of February but the prospects of finding housing look pretty grim. Please keep her and her family in your prayers.
