I gave 28K down for a new home in 2005. I was told that I could lower my house payments in 2006 with a refinance, then I refinanced once more due to my new diagnosis of breast cancer stage II. My mass was the largest many doctors had seen, to their amazement it had not spread into my lymph nodes. I am being treated by one of the leading university hospitals in the U.S. This has been costly, I have insurance but my 20% is adding up fast. I worked all through chemo, lost my home to foreclosure, signed a lease with a landlord that took my last $3.600 and his home was foreclosed on. My elderly mother, myself, my husband and my son came up with enough money to get into another home. I am now going to have to fight to get my $3600 security deposit back. I know that through all these valleys God will lead us to the top of a mountain once again. Right now we cant make the light and gas bills, my medicine is getting costly, car payments are falling behind and I may have to sell my wedding rings to just get food on the table. I have paid out so much in moving costs, turning on utilities, closing bills, that we are drained. My FICO is shot with the forclosure and the IRS will want to know where is the 78K that is the difference between the first and second note. The first foreclosed last year, but the 2nd will foreclose this year. Yet my heart still compels me to be there for others. I have not lost my smile or awesome attitude, because I know that God is in control. The more I try to control things the worst things get. My desire is that if any Christian out there would like to help their sister in Christ and her family. I wont be proud and say no. I mean someone that wants nothing in return but for us to pay it forward to someone else when we are back on our feet. I was just told that the chemo and radiation I was on was not enough. So I start another round of chemo this week. I have not lost my love or faith. I will continue to work as much as I can just as I have through all the other treatments. I know that I am healed in the name of Jesus, my scans are coming back clear and my blood work is looking great. If anyone out there is willing to help , let me know.
