The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $900. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $160 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter 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 Osama's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $900 goes: • Electricity arrears: $530 • Reconnection and late fees: $160 • Down payment on a payment plan: $210 Thank you for reading my story. - Osama

    Sending strength, Osama. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Adama this morning. Greetings from Adama.

    • Sending strength. Shared this with my family. After 18 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

      • So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

          Sending good thoughts. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Nice

          • Wishing you peace, Osama. Your post was clear and honest. I hope December is when things finally get easier. God bless

            • Thinking of you, Osama. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Nice.

              • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Osama

                • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. electricity arrears comes first ($530) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.
