I was traveling with my ex-boyfriend, when he abused me physically for about the 7th time. I almost died, and I called police, he was arrested and sentenced a few months later. He left to go back to the state where we lived and I chose not to go back to him. However, I did not have a car, or many necessities, including a place to live. I am also disabled and not able to work. I stayed in Colorado with a friend, the state assisted with living fee but they do not assist in other ways, except for the counseling I needed after the abuse.
Now I am back close to my mom, who is in bad health, and I had to find a way to pay for every financial area, that a person must, to get a place to live and utilities. I am not able to pay my electric bill, that was due the 10th of December, but did get extension until December 28th. The amount due is $128.00 and I do not have it and no it is not because of Christmas shopping, ect. I do not know where or how to get help.
