Time to End The Nightmare

I usually don't do this sort of thing but I am at the end of my rope. In December, my grandfather died of stage 4 cancer. He was always the one to rely on in a pinch because he had squirrelled away cash for these things. I miss him severely especially now. I'm sure he would've had some way to fund this but now it's on to me. I work a full-time job at Wal-Mart and I take care of my family (grandma, dad and brother). I caregive for them because of their health problems and try to supply them with the needs and wants that help make their life better. They rely on me for a lot of the things in the house because we don't have anyone else. Everything went well for a time. Until, my grandmother had to have heart surgery to fix a leaky heart valve. I have her in Barne's Jewish Hospital in St Louis in recovery and rehab. To top it all off, my father had to be taken to St. John's due to his kidneys (he has a long list of health issues). I thought I could deal with this and I was until I came home yesterday to find a main line water pipe had busted and was leaking into the basement. By the time I got home at 9 PM, the basement was flooded and I could swim from one end to the next. I've been able to pump water out of the basement but there's still a lot of moisture down there. I don't ask for kindness from strangers much but I have a bill for 6200 dollars to pay for the water line replacement and there's additional damage done to the property from the water that I have to fix too. I'm at my wit's end and I don't have anyone else to turn to. All I can do is pray that I may get what I need. This home may be a bit of a fixer but it's the only one I've known.
