Blind and Going to be Homeless Fundraiser

General
I've created a GoFundMe to hopefully stop this situation from happening.

Thank you everyone who has left kind comments and sent notes. To say that I'm low energy right now is an understatement so I haven't really been able to reply, but I've read them all and I really appreciate it. This situation has drained me of everything I have, to the point that I've been struggling to eat or get out of bed. What energy I do have is spent filling out housing applications (which takes several hours to do just one; you haven't seen a stack of paper until you've tried to get into low income housing o_o).
If you can't donate (and I understand that a lot of people can't right now, times are tough), spreading the word helps. I know my timing on this isn't great but it's not really anything I have control over. If anyone wants to be a nerd about Final Fantasy VII with me, watching videos of it has kind of been my escape lately. I'm not really passionate or interested in much lately but if y'all want to talk about She-Ra on Netflix or Loading Ready Run, that's what I've been watching. I have a Patreon and a Ko-fi too if that's more interesting for anyone; I'm trying to get back into drawing and I've been talking a little about ideas I'd like to start working on when I can.
Thanks for being here folks. <3
Edit May 30: Thanks to some PayPal donations we’re over $1k toward the $4k goal. Thank you everyone and thank you for continuing to spread the word. ♥️

Thank you for spreading the word and donating. I hate everything about this whole thing and I'm hoping this might work where nothing else has. Sometimes I think I can manage on the streets and then I remember that Petey wouldn't be able to play with her toys or even be off her leash for weeks or months, assuming I can even keep her if I'm on the streets, and I lose it. :/ And it's frustrating to have survived last year only to be in a situation where I would be exposed to coronavirus constantly (it's ripping through the local homeless community). The stress is unreal and I hate it. Thanks for the vote of confidence though, that means a lot. :)
It's so weird, I technically have steady income and I've lived under the poverty line so long that it's usually enough. But rent ballooned hugely in the last month and everything I have been doing for the last year to keep this from happening has fallen through at the last minute.
I hope I can get to a place where I can make art for folks like you again. I miss it.
