Raising funds to pay an interest only mortgage

I've thought long and hard about starting this campaign and have exhausted many avenues already in the hope of finding a solution. I haven't as yet so here goes.

I bought a house for myself and my children. It was on interest only at the time. We were desperate to find a home and put down a small deposit to secure it. I admit in the desperation to find a home I didn't think too much about the terms of the mortgage or the fact that when it matured I would still owe the mortgage.

Time moved on, my health was not the best and work began to disappear. I am working but not earning as much so cannot commit to increased regular payments.

I have never asked anyone for help. I can tell you my back story but then it might look like I'm after the sympathy vote so unless I'm asked I don't.

More and more I'm having terror sweats worrying myself half to death about the prospect of being homeless. Each night I go to bed worrying and wake worrying.

I've spent all my working life helping others in stressful situations, traumatic situations that mirrored my own existence.

So, I'm asking for donations to reach my target of 250,000 . If I'm deemed cheeky for asking then so be it. I've not murdered anyone I'm just asking for help. If you dont want to thats fine and if you do then thank you

Ps My best buddy is pictured. I'm happy to answer related questions by the way.
