I’m Shawne,51 ; mother of 4 2 grown n two teenagers in 10th& 11 th grade . I’m asking for help cus I’m currently struggling financially since I’ve left my kids father almost a year ago. My current situation is I’m in court w landlord for negligence which retaliation is my defense for withholding my rent due to uninhabitable circumstances mold ,pest infestation , leaks, non functional essential appliances, broken doors/windows. The landlord has decided to evict me n say non payment to evict. I called for code violations to see if I was at fault or landlord. Inspection concluded the landlord was responsible, the violator in this matter so I was to be evicted 4/7/26 but because I had a pending extension because my step father died n landlord filed a motion to evict cus I didn’t respond on time it was granted until I filed a motion against it n judgement was in my favor to stay the writ. Thank goodness! But im no lawyer or even know what im doing really but it’s working . I have lived here 8 years without arrears til now n this rental isn’t much but I was able to afford until I put my kids father out . We did 50/50 on bills now I’m struggling financially. Now that I called for this inspection n the landlord failed they want to evict n say non payment when im paying to court in escrow n I got IFP cus im on snap n ssdi/ ssi . That helped me to get my appeal n not have to pay the amount of back rent due to landlord. So I have to stay w my payment of rent to court in order to keep the case alive. I’m so glad I found out about this helping hand of hope for struggling family , thankful to have this opportunity to tell my story. I’m asking for help w lawyers, move, car, money of any sort to keep us afloat to be able to afford my bills. My electric will be shut off on 5/17/26 . I’m at my wits end but I had to get out of the relationship that I was only showing integrity for. This was a big step for me to do cus I was in this relationship for more then half my life . The emotional, mentally draining relationship between him and I have taken a toll on our kids as well. It’s been hard to get through this situation alone . So I started doing research n came across this website where I might be able to get help with my life financially, cus I’m on a fixed income . My life is a mess right now and I’m overwhelmed with all this stress, money problems, court proceedings, etc. . I’m trying to get myself out of the darkness cus I am so sad/depressed and it’s spilling over to my sons who life is about to start . I’m not a man but I’m raising them to the best of my knowledge. Now they haven’t any men in their lives my dad is deceased 1981, my grandfather 2014 cancer deceased, my stepdad3/6/26 COPD. Their grandfather on dad side left his family a long time ago. His grandfather is deceased as well. I do have a grown son who’s trying to help but he’s in a different state, now he’s preparing to be a dad and I’m not trying to make him do that anymore because he’s gonna get his own baby soon. I feel like a burden , also their own father was here but absent cus he was dishonest and betrayed the trust in us all. I would appreciate any help of any kind for me and my sons to move onto a new beginning. Our new chapter needs love respect and honesty. Thank you again truly appreciative and humbly grateful.
