Gas shut-off notice: help Precious pay $150

The gas account is 3 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 August's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $50 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the rainy season without gas 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 Precious's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Utility arrears: $70 • Reconnection and late fees: $35 • Down payment on a payment plan: $45 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
