I'm honestly not sure how much more could go wrong... Even I can't believe the run of bad luck me and my extended family are having. It just seems... impossible. A fairy tale... and oh, how I wish it was.

So, here I am. I finally have to plead for help.

I hate asking for help....

Short version:

Between the broken washing machine, broken kitchen sink, and now the upstairs bathroom floor rotting away, medical bills for all of us and our pets, we're all four of us completely tapped out and we REALLY need all the help we can possibly get.

The long version:

(A foreword: Extended Family Member 1 [henceforth, EFM1] cannot work due to medical issues; she's a home-maker.)

Some months ago (in springtime), the seal on the washing machine tore; no idea how, but we're guessing my then-much-younger puppy chewed a hole in it. We've been able to buy a new seal, but we don't have the tools to fix it ourselves. We have been trying to alleviate the problem by placing towels beneath the door to catch the water that's leaking, until we could comfortably afford the tools needed for the repair.

At the end of July, the faucet on the kitchen sink finally went kaput after a valiant attempt to keep working. As EFM1 attempted to fix it, she pulled hard on it to try to loosen it from the sink. However, it was rusted onto the sink so badly that it literally tore a giant hole in the back of the sink itself: https://sta.sh/012f4eu4166i
Rendering it completely unusable. We've been using the half-bath on the main floor for dishes since then.

I was able to get up just enough to buy a new sink (using all of the money that was going toward getting that washing machine fixed) that would fit in the space left behind by this monster sink, but just barely at the time and I still went overdrawn. The new sink (and faucet) now fit nicely in the space, but we came up to a new problem: whoever installed the (now broken) blue sink had put in some kind of piping kit... and GLUED EVERYTHING together. Even the parts that are SUPPOSED to rotate. The new sink does not line up with the current plumbing, so now we need to install new pipes. Again, no tools for this job, either.

And then, finally, around August 15th, we discovered a serious issue with the house.
Black rot.
All over under the floorboards. There's been a leak in the ceiling downstairs, but we didn't think it was serious; it was pretty light and we thought we could hold out. And then suddenly, it just got darker, fast: https://sta.sh/2mbnmlck08g

Now, this combined with what we found in the bathroom (which can be seen here) freaks me out. In my first link, my bed is just to the left of that little chandelier... and all this crap from the bathroom is right over it. If the upstairs shower decides to give out and go through the floor, it's a very real possibility that I could be seriously injured or even be killed.

Since we can't use the shower upstairs, we're having to take "can baths", using a 50-gallon tote and bowls/cups for washing, in the half-bath on the main floor (yep, the same one we're doing dishes in).

On top of all of these events, we have had pet deaths that have been completely devastating to EFMs 1 and 3, with another pet needing surgery.

On my end, personally, my menstruation cycle has gone crazy and sticks around for two months straight at a time (I'm only 31, this should NOT be happening; sorry to all the young men and gentlemen reading that bit). I made a doctor's appointment months ago that I cannot miss and have no money to pay for. Also vet visits for my pup and senior dog next week.

I'm not sure how much worse this can possibly get...

So now I need to beg you for your help.
