Living with mobility issues, diabetes, arthritis, chronic kidney and liver conditions she finds it increasingly difficult to meet her daily needs independently. Economic hardship has further impacted her ability to purchase essential household items, heating, cleaning supplies and other necessities that would improve her health, comfort, and wellbeing.
