It has been about five days since I walked and it took me overall three hours to span a distance that should have taken 30 minutes.
My ankle is swollen. The one I broke summer before 9th grade and had surgery. I am taking naproxen.
I filed two motions with the court. I asked for hotel vouchers/compensation due to the situation, and more time.
I still hope I can just get my apartment back.
I desperately need to stay sheltered at the hotel where I am. I won't have anywhere to bring my stuff when I do get it and right now I need to get medical help. The building said I have one chance and two hours to get my stuff and I need to let them know ahead of time when I am coming for a "security escort". I wanted to talk to a lawyer before I made an appointment to pick my stuff up. I never got notice about when the eviction would take place and management was supposed to email a timeline/official papers/communications and never did. They were talking about assitance programs reaching out to them. I never had a date or a time given for when the eviction would happen. The cops yanked me from my room and never even gave me a chance to gather my stuff like you would for a 15 minute lock out. Put me outside in next to nothing when it was going to be 27 degrees that night and I had nowhere to go and have been medically isolated for five years. It was cruel.
The WHO - who we just disconnected with I heard so that's confusing - says 1,501 people died of COVID in the last month. Mostly in America.
I would not have even been inside in the first place if COVID had never happened.
The hotel is the least expensive I could find within walking distance. I can't physically get around and I can't spend a lot of money on transportation - I need it for the hotel to have somewhere safe and warm to sleep and a bathroom and shower and an internet connection - my phone is not working - it keeps saying out of network (I'm on a lifeline plan). I can only do anything when I have internet. I have been able to eat thanks to food stamps and Walmart gave me six months free of Walmart+ which is free delivery with EBT.
I am on a super limited timeline. A lawyer said today (Wednesday) was the earliest they could respond to me. I am getting help to extend my stay here but it is day by and day and the stress of not knowing when I will be out on my ass or when I can at least get my stuff - a whole decade of my life - back is destroying me.
I am begging anyone I can for help to stay at the hotel until I can get legal and medical care. I am physically compromised and scared of getting sick after fighting so long to stay alive. I don't want to lose my apartment, my stuff, or my life. I should have been at home in Portland and I still believe that. I really need help.
This is instant and does not take a cut:
