The moment in life that you feel like you hit rock bottom but that little faith keeps you going

It's the first time if I'm ever going to do something like this cuz I never knew that my love what hit rock bottom well it sure feels like it I was single parent who had given legal guardianship to my mother last year my mom was diagnosed with Stage 2 stomach cancer I decided to go back to school in May but come July 10th at 5: 30 a. M my mother passed away I was her caretaker during hospice knowing that I left Texas and everything behind I was coming back to California with filling and the thought of coming back to nothing then I realized mother left we were responsible for my older sister who is disabled and not only that she is blind but that I became her eyes and her feet my daughter was given to me with full custody now I only have not one responsibility but to not including them mortgage payment but for some reason a year later around this time my sister gets better I don't need that she and it's relieving me for my position as being her caregiver but also kick me out the house but I was helping her pay bills not once within this past year that I have a chance to save money for myself because I gave every paycheck to my sister so that my daughter would have a nice roof over her head and clothes even though I didn't have much for myself I was okay at the fact for my daughter being in a position I was able to pay for her ballet classes you know her private school such a thing my sister kicks me out now I'm in a position where I'm homeless with my girlfriend and my daughter at this very moment I have a fixed and set income a 550 a month because of my unemployment and Cash Aid I'm running low on funds conference I've applied for the homeless assistance program my two weeks were up this last week as of now tonight's my last night at the motel for about 3 weeks the welfare department has had me running around in circles and at the last week they found his tell me what I really needed to do I was fixed at a very low income but due to my past criminal record a lot of apartments and property Management's are denying me for a place there's anyone that's out there that can help me my little girl and my girlfriend find me 2 bedroom is $550 legitimate income coming in every month it will be a lot of help so let's see with this job case can do to help me out and my family I can care less about me but my family is what matters to me the most a place in Bakersfield or somewhere in Kern County.
