I am a fifty-five year old African American woman who has fought cancer for the last three years, which due to medical neglect, went to stage two before I was helped, and has morphed into fibromyalgia with accompanying migraine headaches.
I have half of the physical capacity of life I had one year ago, and nothing of the life I had before the cancer treatments began. The need is greater than ever for me to serve the community as a Justice Minister/Advocate/Court Community Liaison/Counselor/Mother/Grandmother/ Student/Friend.
I have served the homeless and marginalized in our community for over eleven years, and been a peacemaker and freedom fighter, as my mother and grandmother before me.
I have fallen through dangerous cracks in the medical system, and now the housing crisis is collapsing on my life, but not my faith.
I have a sustaining faith that has moved mountains in my life, and I would like to continue as an example for others who may need to see my faith in action.
In the mean time, my landlords, and other property owners who extend themselves to the Section 8, Housing market, need immediate care; there demise affects the least of God’s people in a dramatic fashion.
Thank you for ending this economic emergency, lives are in your hands,
Sister Adrienne Lawton
