Gas shut-off notice: help Krishna pay $150

The gas account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $150. I have never been late before September's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the rainy season without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $150 goes: • Utility arrears: $85 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $50 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
