Please read my true story i matter too...
Posted by AngelaB on 2012-01-01 15:58:41
To whom it may concern:
My name is Angela K. Baker. I live in Green Bay, Wisconsin and have been living with diagnosis of Systemic Lupus since I was fourteen years (I am now 34 DOB 06/16/1977). Although as a child, I knew there was something a little different about myself compared to my twin brother Johnathan. I could never run and play with the other children because my body just would not keep up with the other kids. It always felt like I had sandbags attached to me and I would pass out in the sunlight, I was always exhausted and my body cried out in pain. I just didn't know why. I can remember being like this all the way back to my kindergarten year. Not that my parents were bad people, it just seemed like they just didn't have anymore to give, there problems were so on the surface, (both of my parents are alcoholics, and my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis (MS) since I was born and as for my father, he spent a large part of my life locked away in the Wisconsin jail system (due to his own alcohol induced indescretions.) At fourteen I got a full-time job to pay for my medical bills and a part-time job working at a nursing home to help my family. I have always been stuborn and a fighter, but at this point in my life the fight has just about been exstinguished out of me and I have to admit that I need some help. Over the last twenty years I have been under anasthetic approximately 125 times. I am missing more parts than I have. I feel like an experiment gone wrong or a human pin coushon. I hope that at least some of my surgical suffering at least helped the surgeons learn something from my body...You see I have lived longer than anyone that they know of with this kind of Lupus. It usually manifesters in the late 30's or 40's not in children. My most recent operation was on June 9th 2011, to fix holes in my intestines that were accidentley left after my colon was removed (my colon exploded after it had been recected four times) Right now I have an Illyectomy system that does not work correctly, it leaks blood, bile, puss, fecal liquid ect. and the plastic appliances do not work on me because my skin is so sensative from the Lupus. My medical exspenses are so astronomical even with Medicare and I struggle every month to pay my basic needs (rent, public service water copays ect) I was forced to retire at 23 my body deceided it just couldn't do it anymore, even though I worked very hard to put myself through college so that I could have a decent job that I enjoyed. Thank God that it does not take much to feed me, because the state of WI says that I do not qualify for food stamps or medical assistance, I make $4.oo a month too much. I am not asking for large donations, I know the ecomomy is bad and we are all struggling. What I am asking that when you balance your checking account that you round up to the nearest dollar and please donate the change. My goal is to collect enough money to see a special surgeon at Freodert Hospital in Milwaukee Wisconsin. He would like to see if he can help me have some kind of quality of life and end some of the suffering that I have been enduring for a long time . I would be happy if I even received a little relief. I don't remember what it is like to feel healthy, everyone in this life deserves at least a shot at it... If I am given the help that I need, I fully intend to open my home again as a safe house ( I am not able to do that now because of the leaking illeostmy ) and I would love to a foster mom to any child who needs a good loving and stable home. The way I am right now is horrible ( I have not left my home in over six months excluding doctor appointments) I do realize that some people use these sites for frivilous things and for scamming people. All that that I can do is to give my word that I promise to pay it forward. In my life I have been through an extraordinary amount of human suffering and it is a miracle that I am alive still to tell my story, and for that I am truly greatful and I am here still for a reason. It is not so bad to live without certain basic human needs, it's the having too that is very heartbreaking.
Sincerely,
Angela K. Baker

Injured student needs help please
Posted by jimmie33 on 2011-12-12 08:58:21
I need help paying bills and seeing doctors. I am an online student with the university of phoenix and was working as a baker for golden corral, but now I am injured with tendonitis in my right hand and have been out of work for two weeks. I am a minimum wage earner and have rarely worked a forty hour week so I had to live pay check to pay check and have been unable to save any money. Now that this has happened I am in a bind and need some help. I do not have insurance or any other means to take care of this situation with my hand especially if they require me to have surgery. I have no family here and I feel lost. Can someone please help me.

I sustained an injury from my work called tendonitis in my right hand which I am a right handed person. I have been out of work for two weeks and have been living from pay check to pay check because the pay is not all that great and I rarely have a week were I work a full forty hours. Now that I have been out of work the doctor is talking about surgery which I can not afford and the bills keep piling up.I would not be doing this except right now I have no other help or choices. I live alone in a city where I have no family I need some help please I can not afford to lose my internet connection either as school is what I am doing to have a better life for myself.I will work but my injury has put me in a situation where I can not and I do not have any insurance or anything else at the time.

I am a 23 year old baker who works 30 hours a week and can't find a better job. I make roughly 11, 1200 a month. Rent is 575 before bills, but I manage the bills at my house and they come out to about 400 a month. Im really exasperated with those, but then I also owe 1300 with the banks, who were so quick to give me a credit card when I was 18 and had no job. I just found out my ex-girlfriend is pregnant (our poor kid! :( )and I have no savings, I've just been working paycheck to paycheck. Thanks to the banks and the way they've squandered the tiny amount of money I have with overdraft charges and interest fees, I have no more than an eighth in my gas tank and only the blandest sandwhiches for lunch. I really am a smart person, but I just can't catch a break. If you've read this far and would consider helping me, thank you so much, I wish you the best.

Donations Needed to Pay Rent, Bills, Buy Groceries, and Support My Family
Posted by gotmark on 2011-05-30 15:58:21
I am looking for donations to help pay rent, pay bills, buy groceries, and support my family.
I am currently unemployed since 03/28/2011 and have been only able to get by with money I had saved for my emergency fund. Thankfully I had this saved up but I'm now out of money and do not have any immediate resources that can provide assistance.
The Texas Work Force Commission says I'm ineligible for unemployment insurance because my employer, a small company with a CEO that would yell at employees all the time told them I quit my job. This is not the case, I was told to leave for no reason during a meeting without warning. I'm in the process of appealing my case for a hearing, but the process will take weeks before they can determine a hearing date and determine if I'm eligible.
I am very detail oriented and have applied to 306 different positions since I was let go. I've been on 8 interviews and have another lined up for tomorrow. I have been applying to jobs that are relevant to my job skills and qualifications, which is search engine optimization (SEO), customer service, and inside sales. Most of the positions I've had the chance to interview with have stiff competition and some are still in the searching process. I needed a job 2 months ago. Recently, I was able to get hired for a retail position that pays $7.25 an hour. At this point I will sweep the floors for someone to hire me. This position starts June 6th.
Anyhow, in the midst of all this, I have an 11 year old daughter, and a 3 year old son. I've been married for 11 years and my wife does what she can as a baker for birthdays, weddings and holidays. She brings in about $300 a month which she contributes to groceries and kids clothes.
I'm dedicated and hard working and want to be able to pay my bills and support my family.
Here is a breakdown of my expenses:
Rent: $1195 per month
Car Payments: $720 per month
Car/Rental Insurance: $320 per month
Cable/Internet: $165 per month
Sallie Mae Student Loan: $60.00 per month (past Due 17 days)
Water/Trash Utilities:$60 per month
Groceries: $600 month
Gas: $200 per month
Total Expenses: $3320 per month
Currently, I have $900 to my name. Today in 05/30/2011 and I have to pay rent by June 3rd.
If there is anyone out there who would be willing to make a donation I can provide a tax receipt so you can use it as a write off when you file your taxes. Also, I will be willing to create a website or provide my SEO services as a way help your business get found on the front page of Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
I am glad I found this site and I hope it works! Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you send a donation I will provide a picture of my family and as well as an update on our status.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Mark

Recently, I was able to get hired for a retail position that pays $7.25 an hour. At this point I will sweep the floors for someone to hire me. This position starts June 6th.
Anyhow, in the midst of all this, I have an 11 year old daughter, and a 3 year old son. I've been married for 11 years and my wife does what she can as a baker for birthdays, weddings and holidays. She brings in about $300 a month which she contributes to groceries and kids clothes.
I'm dedicated and hard working and want to be able to pay my bills and support my family.
Here is a breakdown of my expenses:
Rent: $1195 per month
Car Payments: $720 per month
Car/Rental Insurance: $320 per month
Cable/Internet: $165 per month
Sallie Mae Student Loan: $60.00 per month (past Due 17 days)
Water/Trash Utilities:$60 per month
Groceries: $600 month
Gas: $200 per month
Total Expenses: $3320 per month
Currently, I have $900 to my name. Today in 05/30/2011 and I have to pay rent by June 3rd.
If there is anyone out there who would be willing to make a donation I can provide a tax receipt so you can use it as a write off when you file your taxes. Also, I will be willing to create a website or provide my SEO services as a way help your business get found on the front page of Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
I am glad I found this site and I hope it works! Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you send a donation I will provide a picture of my family and as well as an update on our status.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello! My name is James. I'm a stay at home dad of two children whos wife works full time. I am not on welfare and have been trying very hard to find a job that has hours from 5pm-11pm nightly with no success. We are filing for bankruptcy and it has been very difficult on everyone involved. If you know of a job, have work for me, or simply would like to help me out please, please do. I would even take 1 cent as a donation at this point. Though I would rather work and I have experience as a cab driver,security guard, customer representative, computer tech, bagel baker, assistant/shift manager as well as some limited auto maintance experience. I'm more desperate than proud at this point, having given my share in years past to good causes I am hoping some of that will return my way. I continue to apply for anything that might be available but I am exceedingly concerned that soon I will not even have the money to buy groceries. My wife just filed for bankruptcy recently and that is also adding to crisis here. I've never begged in my life like this but the situation is dire and there is little other option I can think of. The biggest problem is that I must stay home to raise my children (and I LOVE being a dad and I love doing this. It also saves us more than I would make if we had to pay for childcare. However since they are not in childcare I do not have the hours open during the day to work. I simply need to get out of this and get us back on our feet. We are only a broken car, or appliance away from I don't know what. :(

Hi, my name is Megan Baker. I was raped, some idiot drugged me at a party and took advantage of me. Since then I have developed severe agoraphobia. I work from home, and my husband has a job, but our bills have started to overwhelm us. We are about to loose our house, which is my husband's childhood home. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
