my father got diagnosed with cancer about a year ago and now we are really feeling the financial burden. my mom does not have a job she stays at home and takes care of my dad. my older brother and i are helping as much as we can but its getting harder to make rent every month, buying food and paying for the utilities. my mom had financial support from the government, but because of an error on their part she now owes them 2000 dollars and they will not give her food stamps or finnancial aid. any one have any ideas on what we can do?
