Major Life Update: please read

General
So a hell of a lot is going on right now and I am beyond my breaking point.
I am supposed to move at the end of the month, but because I am on Section 8 housing, there is a lot of paperwork involved to the point this has been going on since the end of January. So I am worried if I’ll get approved for the apartment in time. Good news the new unit is in the same building so just moving a floor up.
On top of that; we have to pay to replace the carpet in our current apartment—no big deal. The problem is the landlord/management team is saying “well you need to pay for it before you are allowed to transfer” - the kicker is that there is no transfer happening; it’s an entirely new lease and a larger/different apartment unit. Transfers are only for same/like units in the middle of their lease. Hell even the lease itself says nothing about transfers nor that we must pay to replace the carpet in order to move
With all of that; my wife goes to get her annual biopsy and CT scan today as a follow-up for her endometrial cancer to see if it’s still gone. The good news is that the biopsy came back clear, but the CT scan is showing “possible lung cancer” (it isn’t the usual lung cancer that normally causes huge issues; it’s a form of endometrial cancer that grew on the lung “possibly”)
So I am at my wit’s end and unsure of where to go, what to do, or how to survive all of this…
I seriously don’t know when I’ll return; I want to soon, but I feel like I can’t or shouldn’t
EDIT: SO after typing this up I call my uncle who I haven't spoken to in a few weeks to see how things were; only to find out from him that my other uncle has 6 months to live due to extremely advanced stage colon cancer. This man has had it for most of my life mind you; I'm in my late 30s and he's had it for 20-some years... we knew it wouldn't last forever, but didn't expect it so soon either

FA+

I also hope your wife continues to recover and that the CT scan was just an anomaly. :/
So we are contacting the regional property manager this week to see if she knows about any of these shenanigans going on; if so then we contact the legal services. Like I said I don’t mind paying the repair costs; just it shouldn’t be used to hold back approval of our apartment
