Someone ran across a post on another forum from a provider who is active here.
In her post she says - Her phone is off. She hasn't eaten in 4 days. She will be homeless tomorrow. A friend got her a hotel room for the night.
Usually, I would go over in person and investigate and try to help in a very real physical manner. Since, I am across the country and out of Dallas, there isn't much I can do. I can however try to rally a little community help.

She shared her hotel name and room number - So, I tried calling there, many times. I wanted to speak to her and get the real details. No answer. For whatever reason. *crosses fingers is it for work*
Without talking to her (her post said her phone is off) We don't know the situation or if it is a set up. Treading cautiously.
Ideas?
My first suggestion would be for someone to help her get a working phone. MetroPCS is closed, but in the AM activating a new burner phone can be as cheap as 35$.
Finding her a place to work/live, um... She should find a place that has a weekly rental price, NOT the expensive ass hotel she said someone bought for her..
She SHOULD make a post asking for help, without going into details, and ask if someone is willing to see her for X many hours for the weekly price. Risky on the guy but it is all I can think of.
There is a chance that if she posts on boards and does it in a SANE way, not her usual bat shit crazy way, she might get some charity to help with this. Easier for many people to help 20$ than one help 400+.
A little charity might be good, but really, people want her to work her way out of whatever hole she has dug for herself.
Speaking of, we would want to know why she is in this situation to begin with. Not really to judge, but to figure out what help she really needs, and what is the root of the issue, besides her phone not ringing.
I am all for helping others. I was blown away by the rally I got when I needed the help, so I feel compelled to at least try and return the favor as best I can.
Really, I am asking for suggestions and your brains more than handouts, especially since we don't have much information right now.
