Hi. My name is Amanda. I know this is a long shot but I have no where we else to turn anymore. Okay, so I am a 38 year old widow from hazleton pa. I had a stroke January 9 2025 and my entire life crumbled. Lol prior to my stroke, my husband passes away on November 4th suddenly. He had diabetic ketoacido. We didn't even know he was diabetic. He was only 38 years old :( then my soul dog passed away on December 13th. I was 6 months pregnant when this all happened. I ended up having the baby girl on February 20th. Yes I had the stroke and lost my husband when I was pregnant. The baby was born 2 month premature weighing 2lbs 1 oz. I couldn't take care of her. The stroke left me with a lot of physical deficits and I could still barely walk, so I placed her for adoption. She's now a happy, healthy 1 year old. She lives with her 2 dads just outside of Philadelphia. I do have 1 daughter who just turned 18 on March 31. She lives with her father's, my late husband's sister in nescopeck, because I can't work anymore so I cannot support her. This is why I'm reaching out for help. I did apply for social security but until that goes through, I am living with friends of my family with my dog and my best friend. I am beyond grateful that I have somewhere to lay my head at night. But I cannot have my daughter here. The house I'm living in is not fit for human habitation. We don't have heat or running water here. And my best friend who has been helping me with everythingbn basically living here with me.. she's living in a tent behind the house with her boyfriend and their dog bc there isn't enough room in here for them. She helps me with everything... From normal day to day tasks to going over to planet fitness with me and helping me shower. I can't live like this anymore. I absolutely hate my life as is and would rather just be with my husband and no longer have to suffer. :(
I have no money. So I need somewhere to live. I can't pay until my social security goes through. The only thing I can offer right now I exchanging work for somewhere to call home my best friends boyfriend can do it all .. from renovations to plumbing and electrical and yard work. He would gladly exchange work of any kind for rent. If doesn't even need to be a house. Even if it's a camper. I just need somewhere we can safely live, even if it's just until my social security goes through for myself, my best friend and her boyfriend, and my service dog who is very well trained and behaved.. and my cat and my lizard. And her very well behaved and trained dog.
I know I'm asking for a lot and I appreciate you taking the time to read this.
I'm praying for a miracle. Please help me
