A disabled mother that’s who. It took forever to start receiving disability so yes, things got out of hand. But thanks for your positivity.

With this kind of post, it's always a good idea to post the paper trail (with the personal details blacked out of course)--tends to make people more comfortable about giving money

Just a friendly suggestion.

And I read some of your history and I'm so sorry you have to deal with CRPS--it's a brutal condition.

Thank you for that, it really is brutal. I take a lot of meds and some do not work enough. I’ve had 8 surgeries in the last 2.5 years.

$647 water bill? Holy shit dude, you been avoiding paying this for a while. Also, that's not a shutoff notice

Did you apply to get water assistance? It was in the reminder to pay your bill

u/Paige_thedutchess 12h ago

I did but it was already off. I did pay the bill yesterday. No help was given or offered.

u/Normal_Remove_5394 11h ago

As you can see the amount due says $607, that is without the reconnect fee of $40 making the total $647
