    I’m listening, JoB.

    Really, I just want to drop off some food somewhere.

    That’s about the best I can offer, besides the continuing contributions to the fundanything site.

    Hi everyone! sorry I dropped off. I usually use my iPhone 24/7 even though I have a laptop. Ive been working on interior design jobs. I have a break now.

    For some reason I could not access to post. I’ve had mike post a couple things.. I just briefly perused posts. Elizabeth has researched and exhausted all avenues for years. Public housing, 211, social workers from hospitals, west seattle help line, city of Seattle and King County authorities, senior center etc. the list is comprehensive. (actually even speaking with our past Mayor after he helped NV relocations).

    Well it seems as though Lizzys support has come greatly from our hood. I tweeted 2 weeks ago and no responses. I understand that after Mike posted, some funds came in. How reassuring and wonderful to everyone. I told Lizzy there was a neighborhood chat that supported her. She wants to post a thank you and 1st names of those that have opened their hearts and pockets, for her. I will post asap,

    She was at her doctors per my suggestion, to alert the office that we are doing a fundraiser. The office is happy to accommodate. Her doctor has been seeing her mostly probono and giving her sample RXs when they can. She needs boatloads of supplements’ too. Her dr has given her many for free. However is not able to afford other purchases.

    If anyone would like to donate: Elizabeth Parker

    c/o Factoria family clinic 425-644-2273 She does not have insurance and Rx coverage,

    The plethora of what we take for granted; bras without safety pins( women only would understand )toiletries, petro, I found out she hasn’t paid auto insurance for almost a year and prays daily

    that nothing happens..

    I have helped her and others. One person can only do so much. I’m a huge proponent that it takes a village.

    Any way I am home now and decided to open the laptop. My phone wasn’t getting alerts that anyone had posted. Sorry I have been clueless. I have come across this glitch before. It suddenly wont take my passcode. Very strange but I am not going to take it personally LOL

    I see wonderful ideas and know that she has been on top of all options.

    Our country can only do so much for the masses. Her isolation is not unusual. Mike can probably attest to that.

    Cheers and gratitude, Happy

    Blessing and Prayers from Elizabeth

    Give me a few days to post her short thank you to all. Which reminds me I have 2 written cards I forgot to hand off to <

    Have a great weekend. Love to everyone!!!! I’m so happy to have asked for help here, it certainly is lovely to know we are a rock’n neighborhood. Perhaps this will serve as a model for inspiration to other communities.

    Sorry that this is written so haphazardly I had no idea things were still being posted. So my mind is a bit of a muushhh

    Ps For all those that tithe at the office or donate time to causes… bravo to all!!!!

    so…she doesn’t qualify for Medicaid? Not old enough for Medicare? Can’t get Medicaid through the ACA?

    So, what kinds of supplements does she need? Are we talking Vitamins? Protein supplements? Let us know, and maybe someone can help with that. Also, (personal question)…bra size? While some may not be able to buy new, maybe someone has some decent ones lurking at home that aren’t being used…ya never know.

    I just went further back to posts.. I think we mentioned that we didn’t know how fundanything ties your email to the program. Lizzy used email 1 time to say thanks as I recall. We assumed that donors received notice through fundanything. Elizabeth certainly respects other peoples rights to privacy She barely knows how to post. I am not going to baby sit it. I am pretty much computer-illiterate myself Oh yes, she did say FAny contacts people through their thread but she does not.. As I said Musshhhh

    I am a bit overwhelmed here. (Thx Jan- bras are too difficult to fit. Lizzy didn’t ask for a bra. I happen to know this.. ) Just to let people know, one wanting to take their own life is of no need for you to know where.

    , why, how, services this and that; however things like this exist, She exhausted all avenues I am the one asking on her behalf, She is not a social person as I am. Sorry, I had no idea people were posting. My phone did not alert me. Now I am overwhelmed

    Thx to everyone. I need to take a breather

    Happy Hour…people want to help, but are frustrated because it seems that so far the only way to do that is to donate to the crowd fund, and some don’t want to do that on a regular basis., which I understand. I had my own crowdfunding site once. How else can people help her besides that? It just seems to me that she is falling through the cracks, and there are people out here with knowledge to help, that would maybe help her be a little more sustainable herself, people who know the system, and how to get around it. I can’t believe ALL avenues have been exhausted.

    I’m sorry for not posting Elizabeth’s thank you to everyone here. I have since lost the paper. Anyway. It was a heartfelt thx to everyone who helped.

    I think most all donations came from the blog here.

    I want to thank everyone for your amazing support!!!

    I certainly don’t have the words for such unconditional tithing

    Lizzy is going to move back into her car.

    We did all we could. So many people fall through the cracks.

    I’m tired right now but wanted to stop in. I keep forgetting to post.

    Cheers and much gratitude to all Proud to be a WS babe. Lol

    Thanks for the update, happy hour.

    I wish Lizzy was in a more stable situation, and will be keeping her in my thoughts…
