The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $100. I have never been late before a reduction in hours. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 Kathleen's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Water arrears: $40 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
