Hello, I am reaching out from falcon heights. I have a TBI from several serious head injuries... and as of 12/10 my doctor removed me from work. I no longer have any income and have been denied for help through the state. I need help to save my home and get healed. But the stress of losing my home and not eating or sleeping is starting to cause longer recovery for me.
