  1. So I recently relocated to Mableton/Austell are with my two little girls so excited that my husband and I got our first house. Not even a month later on my birthday we have a fire. The Red Cross helped us pay for a hotel room for a few days but the rest was out of pocket almost $140 a day for a month or so. While all this is going on Ive been extremely lethargic and exhausted figured it was the stress. I was walking in the bathroom to help my daughter and all of a sudden I dropped smashing my face off the vanity and waking up to her rubbing my face asking me if I was ok (she's 5 😭) so I went to the hospital to make a long story short I was diagnosed with Preriphial Artery Disease & Multiple Sclerosis that's caused Kidney Failure. They are concerned I'm developing Gangrene in my leg and I haven't even been able to get beds for us to sleep on, a table to have dinner at or dishes to eat off, dressers to put clothes in nothing and now the holidays are basically here and I have to see a vascular specialist cardiologist rheumatologist and Everytime I step foot in one of those places it's $50 out of pocket and my husband and I are separating. If anyone has any furniture they want to get rid of id forever be grateful or have any suggestions what I can do I have no family here and I'm just lost. Thank you

    AARP  IS an association for Senior Citizens. Your  post is  better suited for a groups like like Red Cross or the Salvation Army. 

    ARRP has many members that are in need of help with  their heat and electric bills or similar life substaning needs.

    We personally support the LOCAL food banks and a group here that supplies diapers to mothers that can afford them.
