❤️ Help Lori Save Her Home After Betrayal, Illness, and Financial Loss

Lori never imagined she would be fighting to keep her home while battling her health at the same time.

Over the past few years, Lori has endured more than most people face in a lifetime. She was extremely ill and alone when she received money following the heartbreaking loss of her mother to Mesothelioma. During that vulnerable time, people she trusted took advantage of her situation. One was a lifelong friend of nearly 49 years who stole approximately $12,000 from her, and another individual took nearly $8,000 more.

That money was meant to provide stability and security — instead, it disappeared during a period when Lori was physically and mentally unable to defend herself.

Since then, life has continued to compound the hardship.

Lori is disabled and living on limited income. The financial loss created a ripple effect she has not been able to recover from. Property taxes fell behind. Home maintenance became overwhelming. Her lawn and exterior upkeep — things she once took pride in — became impossible to manage while dealing with her health challenges.

Now the situation has escalated.

The city has issued 18 violations against her property and is pursuing court action. Some of the required repairs include landscaping corrections, exterior structural items like soffits, and other costly property fixes that are far beyond Lori’s physical ability and financial means.

She is not someone who chose to neglect her home — she is someone who simply could not keep up after devastating financial betrayal and declining health.

Without help, Lori risks losing the place she calls home.
