Mrs. Pamela F., a 60-year-old former secretary and daughter of a veteran suffers from clinical depression and orthopedic injuries – one such injury left her permanently unbalanced. She is living in her old family home which at times seems to be falling down around her. She lives on $774 a month– combined social security disability and supplemental security income– as her only support. When her pipes burst in the recent freeze, Advocates helped her pay for the repairs.
