Prayer Request

I am a single mom, 51 yrs. old, and I need prayer.I have been struggling to find work for over three years now after a battle with breast cancer left me unable to work during, and a year after, chemo and radiation. Now, NO ONE wants to hire me for anything. I live on social security and I stretch that check, which is only $750, as far as it will go. I have not bought ANYTHING for myself in over 3 years, as every spare dime goes to my daughter. Her father won't pay support, so she is totally dependent on me for everything. Now, how do I tell her that our power is about to be shut off? I've exhausted EVERY resource. HEAP, Social Services, and every other service will not help me. No one in my selfish family will part with a single dime even though they own houses, cars, big toys, and I have nothing.

I've raised money for abused dogs online for surgeries, gone out of my way to give my addict brother a place to live when no one else would, and have extended my heart to whoever needs me. Now that I am in trouble, no one is there. It's a amazing to me how a multimillion dollar power company who wants me to pay $900 to keep my power on and can literally turn me down to work with me and NOT leave me in the dark and cold. I'm so scared, so hopeless, I just want to give up. I'm on bended knee here, heavenly Father. I'm tired of fighting to survive. It's an endless battle.
What do I do, Lord? How do people in my situation keep their power on? What am I doing wrong? Please pray for me. I can't do this anymore.....
