The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $650. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $105 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Josiah's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $650 goes: • Water arrears: $400 • Reconnection and late fees: $60 • Down payment on a payment plan: $190 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Josiah. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better.
