I fought a court case for historical abuse.in 2016. 2017 I had breast cancer, l2019 lost my mam, and I've been homeless for over a year. I have tried to fight so hard for myself it's just getting too hard. I'm losing the will
Hi Cocobelle welcome to the forum and I am so very sorry to hear about all that has happened for you and is happening for you now.
You have had a horrific time and things have not always been as life could be nor what we would like it to be. However, reading your post I was very moved to think that you reached out here and wnated to try to respond to you. Your post doesn't give me the impression of someone losing the will, ( though I can understand why you might feel like that) but instead makes me think of someone who is very brave and continues to be in the face of great adversity that takes guts and courage and you seem to have that in abundance.
I'm not sure if you are in a position to give the Macmillan Line a call or have access to a phone in maybe one of the homeless shelters (around the country) that they would let you use. It's a freephone number so wouldn't cost them anything to let you use their phone. 08088080000 as they offer a huge array of help and support and could advise you if you wanted to get into somewhere to stay or make contact with local Homelessness services.
Meantime I sending you the biggest and huge big hugs and please do keep in touch as best you can as we will be thinking of you.
I see one of the other lovely folks on here has also suggested the MacMillan Line which is worth a try for you.xxxx
I'm so sorry to hear how tough things have been and are for you right now. Please contact Macmillan. Are you able to get signposted to benefit and welfare advice or even local charities?
Sending you love big hugs. Please stay in touch here too
I hope you have phoned by now and things are already moving forwards in a positive way. In the mean time well done for finding this place and contacting us all! Like me it sounds like you're a survivor and that gives us special skills as well as the other stuff. Those skills will and have helped you this far. Let us know how you are getting on. Virtual hugs in the mean time.
Cocobelle you are obviously very strong. You fought a case re historical abuse. That takes huge courage and strength. You beat cancer. I’m sorry for the loss of your Mum, and now I cannot imagine how hard homelessness must be. But please reach out for the help you need. I hope you are already on the way to getting some help. Keep fighting! It’s what your Mum would want for you.
