So, it appears that I have been lied to my entire life. [View all]

I have just heard from the music store where I took my beloved 1977 Fender Telecaster guitar to have to put on consignment for sale. I had been doing rather well considering that I always wanted that style of guitar, I felt like I had finally found it, and now I was being forced by a fucked up societal model to sell it just to survive.
They just called me to tell me that it is not a 1977 Fender Telecaster, it is a parts guitar with three different version put together and none of them are from 1977. They informed me that it was not worth that much and they did not want it for their store.
That guitar was the only thing I owned that I thought might be worth some actual money. Now, I am faced with the reality that I have nothing of value to pawn/sell, so I cannot offer anything towards saving my husband and myself from homelessness and poverty.
I doubt that we will be able to make it though the summer. I sit here every day sadly looking at the pool because this fucking year old wound on my foot would get infected and make things worse. It won't heal because I cannot afford to go to the expensive doctors that could fix it. Just like everything else in my worthless life. I am not worth the effort.
My gods, has anyone ever told me the fucking truth?? Just fuck all of this. Seriously.
**UPDATE**: So, even though I feel like crap for doing this again, I have created another GoFundMe for those who have expressed a desire to help out. Please know that anything donated will be appreciated and used to help my poor husband through his time being connected to me. Since I am useless and worthless (did I mention that the only thing I thought had value does not, in fact, have any value and therefore means I have literally nothing of value at all?), this is all I can do to try and offset my expensive existence. The bills are not going to stop. Life is not going to stop. But, mine will soon, and that will leave him with nothing but debt.
I have to try something, even if it makes me feel like a bottom feeder. (Yes, I love shrimp as well.)
