I once lived in a Section 8 apartment. 30% of income. It was good but I
got a letter that HUD was going to cut the program covering the apartment. I
was worried I was going to be on the street. I heard there was a housing
preview show and I went to it. I came across a program that got me into renting
a house for LESS than what I was paying for at the apartment. I had the
first house modified by having a ramp put on it. When Sherry was pregnant with
Susan, I filled out an application for a larger house. I'm now in a 4 bedroom
house all one floor and large basement. The rent is a little higher but I'm
doing well taking care of both of my daughters. By the way, I got this not
through any agency for the disabled in my area. I went on my own and found
an agency working to get people who want to get off of welfare and want
something better.
