Recovering from Homelessness a woman veteran
A lot of you know my story. I have ehlers-danlos, a disease that progressively affects my heart and joints and leaves me using a scooter a lot. Some of you know I am a Navy Veteran, who suffers from ptsd, and MST, which means I was sexually assaulted when in. Many of you know I was married to the opening act for Penn and teller, and how he divorced me, taking everything and leaving bills in my name, and me living in my car. A fiat... Which if you know cars, is like living in a phone booth.
What you may not know is that I moved to Detroit with the promise that the lower cost of living would make life livable. Two years later, and after selling just about anything I owned, my joint disease is worse because of the weather, and jobs just don't exist. The people who took me in after the split from the ex are asking me to come back. The healthcare is better in San Francisco, and job prospects are everywhere I look. It's just me, my service dog, and Kitty heading back.
I just need help getting there. My plan is to donate all that I was given back to another family escaping homelessness, but I still have to pay to bring the rest with me, including my animals. I'm collecting at gofundme so I can get home, where my support is stronger, where I can physically survive. Http://gofundme.com/let-me-go-home
Please pass word. I don't want to be homeless in Detroit, but that is exactly where I am heading if I can't get back to California.

When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.

What a life you've led - what you still lead.
Should I be in position to contribute, I shall.
You've got to there, and you will get to your new there...to here. Your here (or there).
Good thoughts and wishes.
