I am a mother of five, two of which still live at home. I was a patient care assistant and last June I had a very bad broken dislocated ankle. I had four surgeries and after the second one I developed a staph infection which resulted in the plate being removed too soon and therefore all the bones shifted to where I can't go back to my normal kind of work. I will need surgery again to correct the problem, but due to the staph infection, I can't have surgery for years down the road. I have to change careers and have been out of work since June 2006. I was able to get unemployment, but only $l60 per week. My husband was subcontracting to a builder and lost his job also due to the business getting slow. We are trying so hard to get a job and are only living on $600 per month. Our rent is $800 and we are currently working it off with our angel landlady. We have exhausted help from family and friends and we are starting to get pretty scared. It is a struggle to get through each week buying food and paying utilities and paying for gasoline to find jobs. Any kind of help from anyone would be so greatly appreciated. My husband and I are in our fifties and this is also making it difficult to find jobs plus my disability makes me a liability to companies. PLEASE SOME GUARDIAN ANGEL OUT THERE, WE NEED HELP
