Mandi Shaw was dealt a seemingly insurmountable hand.
The 47-year-old Utah woman's heart is at only 20 percent of normal capacity, and the results of her birth defects include clubbed feet, no fingers on her right hand and teeth so soft they fell out, according to Deseret News.
Her disabilities are making it impossible for her to work and nearly impossible to pay her mortgage, according to the news site. Now, Shaw is turning to YouTube for help in keeping their home.
To anyone willing to help, Shaw says in the video: "I would be forever grateful and indebted."
She's had trouble paying her bills ever since she had to refinance her home after her husband died from cancer last year.
"Well, I was born with physical problems so that limited...what I could do anyway, but I pretty much got along fine until the heart situation," Shaw says in her YouTube video.
She explains that without family to fall back on, she and her 19-year-old daughter, Cortney, may soon be forced to live in their Chevy pickup truck, the news site reports.
Ron Baker, a local resident who's volunteered to help the Shaws, has set up a way for others to take action. To help Mandi and Cortney keep their home, contact Ron at mandishouse@gmail.com or call 801-553-9797.
