Circumstances beyond my control. Hi there. I have always been an independant, self sufficient lady and have faith. Hope through adversity.
Well again - these are the realities of the life I haven't choosen to lead, but in brief these cirucmstancs have brought me to a position of needing support.
I was bullied by a colleague, my husband had cancer at the time and later died, I have brought up my daughter on my own, she is now 6, I was diagnosed with menieres disease 8 years ago - I have continued to be hopeful for the future but as time has gone on with all these immense stresses - it has had a detrimental affect. Menieres is treatable but not curable, I have accepted the fact, but rather than being able to improve my life, I have managed to bring up my daughter, who is bright and talented. I am so tired, and in need of some support to get me somewhat back in a position of strength. We moved to a house that needed renovating - it is only half done and I am living now on income support, I am waiting for a disability appeal. I I only really delaying real financial hardship. I live on my own and have no family around me - but my health is not good and I cannot get myself out of this situation.
I have always been a generous and supportive person of others, and having needed to get over my 'pride' in my independence have to acknowledge that I cannot do this alone.
I worked to clearing off any debts I had, but over the last year, I have been unable to pay off storage costs, and I am behind with all my bills.
Not sure what to do now actually. I am running of energy and hope.
