The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $1,050. 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 $145 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, 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 Emiliano's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $1,050 goes: • Water arrears: $670 • Reconnection and late fees: $180 • Down payment on a payment plan: $200 I hope life is good to you.

              Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Kingston.

              • Sending good thoughts, Emiliano. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
