Help me get married!
Posted by kendrashue on 2012-03-29 09:58:40
I have $10,043 in medical bill debt from an accident in January 2010 where someone hit me with a 4-wheeler, putting me in a coma for 2 months and then physical therapy and rehab after that. The original bill was $200,000 for the medical costs, but I received a scholarship to cover 95% of the cost because I didn't have health insurance at the time. While I was in a coma, I lost my apartment, fell behind on payments on my school loans, and my bills were sent to collections. Ashland Kentucky is a small town, and we're kind of a small family so I didn't want to press charges on the person who hit me. But when I met my fiancé and we started talking about marriage, I discussed my situation with a lawyer to determine what I should do.
We want to be able to buy a house in the future, but with this debt the lawyer was afraid that my credit will hinder that. The lawyer was also afraid that since my bills are in collections that if I get married that the creditors would seize my fiancéâs assets. My fiancé doesn't have much, but we are sharing his truck since I lost my car and if the creditors took his truck we'd be out the $10,000 remaining on the truck loan and without a vehicle. I decided I would try to press charges just for the cost of filing bankruptcy, but the person who hit me was the sheriffâs son. No police report was ever filed. Small town politics are good in most situations. This is not one of them.
The lawyer tried to do what he could, but Kentuckyâs statute of limitations for filing suit against someone is 1 year. By the time I decided I needed to sue, it was too late. So Iâm stuck with a bill I canât pay and itâs the only thing keeping me from marrying the man I love. My mother is a medical transcriptionist in West Virginia, and sheâs barely making enough to support herself and her boyfriend so I canât ask her for help. My father has been in prison my entire life so I donât really have anyone to turn to for assistance with this. My fiancéâs parents have been very helpful, but they only have so much to help with and they canât assist us with the bankruptcy.
Me and Trey (my fiancé) are paying for the wedding and the honeymoon entirely by ourselves, on top of keeping up with rent and truck payments and regular bills. Like I said, weâre happy and weâre doing okay living a humble lifestyle. Other people have it worse, I get that and Iâm grateful for the love Iâve found and the life I get to spend with him. We wanted to get married in June, but at the rate weâre able to save towards the cost of filing bankruptcy, it could be next year before we could get married, and neither of us want to wait that long.
I already spoke to 1 lawyer and was quoted $1500, two payments of $750. Our finances are so carefully budgeted that and stretched so thin that we just can't do that. My fiancé has stopped eating breakfast and lunch to save money, started riding his bike to work and is doing everything he can to save money. Weâve set aside $300 towards the filing cost. Itâs taken us 4 months to do that. We intended on using our tax returns to file, but mine was taken by the creditors and we used his to try to get ahead on our bills. So hereâs what Iâm asking: any donation towards the cost of filing my bankruptcy would be a huge blessing right now. Some members of our church have offered to assist us, and someone referred us to this site. I
think itâs a great thing that people are willing to help complete strangers out and I wish that I had the resources to help others at this time. Weâve already agreed that we will do whatever we can to help others in need on this site once we can start setting more money aside once weâre married. But right now, I need $1200 total to cover the cost of my bankruptcy, so any donation towards that would be a blessing. Thank you for taking the time to read my story, God Bless!
Please help me make it possible for my 7 year old to walk

My youngest (of 4) daughter Isabella was born in 12/17/2004 with Osteogenesis Imperfecta. OI in short is brittle bone disease and Bella was born with 12 fractures. The doctors gave Isabella 48 hour to live and told me that there was nothing they could do for her. After 12 weeks of fighting for her life and begging the doctors to help her and no success I demanded the doctors to release her and on BLIND FAITH we loaded our 4 children ages 7-12 weeks old and everything that would fit into our 2 trucks and with $4000 we set out from dallas to the tampa shriners hospital for childrens for medical care.
In the first year of Isabellas life she was life flighted 5 times over a 6 month period, spent spent 80% of the year living in ICU, was vented 2x and spent 28 days in a coma.
We quit counting Isabellas fractures at 50 and by the grace of God last december Isabella turned 7. She is currently 20.9 pounds and 29 inches. She is a smart happy well adjusted 1st grader with a sunshine yellow wheelchair and a 1 on 1 para in a regular classroom. She is funny and the glue that binds our family together.
We have been ok with Isabellas medical care for the last 7 years and Shriners is amazing and does the best for her that they can but in this economy we find that they are more reactive than proactive. I have been researching around for state of the art medical care for kids with OI and I have found it in Omaha NE. We have contacted the doctor and have been accepted as a paitent as soon as we can raise the nearly $10,000 we will need to relocate our family to Omaha.
With that said and Isabellas mounting unpaid medical bills we are buried with nothing in savings. We are in search of someone or many someons who would be willing to help us raise the funds to move this amazing child as her dream is to be rodded and stand (a very reall possibility in Omaha)!
We would be willing to accept any reasonable loan offered and would be blessed with any donation (big or small)
Thank you again for taking the time to read my post and for any help financial or emotional that you may be able to afford us.
God bless you!

Single disabled father of 3.
Posted by vujo on 2010-10-04 11:58:58
I am a single father of 3, and the picture is one of me after a woke from a coma, from being hit by a car doing 60 mph. I posted it so people would not think I was one of these people who are just trying to "hustle" some one. My family and myself have been living without gas the past few months, but that has been fine being that it is summer. As of recent our landlord has givin us a notice to leave being we are a a bit over 2 months behind.
Everything I receive from disability goes into keeping us afloat, and it just does not seem to be enough. I am trying to sell our washer, a stove, and an old refrigerator (if anyone needs one in eastern OH, western PA).
My children do not deserve this, they are far beyond to great, my son is a football great, and two daughters are beautiful cheer-leaders. All three are great in school, and everyday I do not have any idea how they cope with our situation.
Any help would be appreciated more than you could ever imagine. If you need any other information or would like to contact me, you may do so at vujo1@yahoo.com.
By the way I am doing much better now, coming from a 15 percent chance to live, and family was told I would never walk again, but I do walk now. I am attempting to find part time work in the area if anyone knows, buts its kinda hard being I can not drive, (yet :) !).
Single Father of 3 loosing everything.

A Second Chance on Life!
Posted by Toby on 2010-07-26 20:58:58
My Heartache
I was a victim in a horrific accident, which changed my life in a split second. When I regained consciousness after being in a coma for three months, I realized that the way I lived and saw life in the past, would change forever. To my horror I saw that my one leg was amputated at my knee - and that was only the beginning I was paralyzed from my waist downwards.
The doctors informed me that I was very lucky to be alive. I broke my lower back on three places, had 27 fractures throughout my whole body and had a fractured skull. The medical staff told me that I was on life support for two weeks and they feared that I would not survive my injuries, and if I did survive, that I would have brain damage (the bleeding in my skull had caused my head to swell to double its size) and that I would be paralyzed for the rest of my life - confined to a wheelchair.
My Healing
I underwent groundbreaking surgery on my back, taking bone from my hip bone to rebuild the vertebrae in my back. After wearing a body brace for 3 months, I started swimming to the best of my ability with my lower body being paralyzed. I spent 6 to 8 hours a day in the pool and miraculously, after doing this for 22 months, I slowly regained feeling and movement in my amputated leg. I was overcome with joy.
My Happiness
Finally, after being confined to a wheelchair for 3 years, with a brace on my paralyzed leg and a walking aid, I took my first step. I never regained the use of my one leg I regained a small amount of feeling, but no movement. But this handicap did not bother me I had my prosthetic leg and my walking aid I could move around, have a shower, be normal.
I was so incredibly grateful for this Second Chance on Life. I was on top of the world and I was looking forward to a wonderful future I really got a second chance on life or so I thought.
My Heartache once again
A few months later I developed an excruciating pain in my paralyzed leg and back. This pain literally paralyzed me and I had to revert back to using a wheelchair to get around. I am back to that time in my life when I was in hospital and realized the enormity of my injuries. The pain is not only preventing me from walking, but also from living a normal life. The pain consumes me, 24 hours a day. I cant function in the normal sense of word.
According to my surgeon, another back surgery will relieve me from the pain. This surgery is my only hope to ever walk again and have a normal life. This operation is very, very expensive (tens of thousands of dollars). My medical insurance is depleted and my medical expenses, ruined me financially.
The months since the pain started, when I could not work and was basically bedridden, I compiled an e-book on health, anti aging, super foods, diet and the perfect exercise program, sustained by years of medical research, conducted by professionals in their individual fields of expertise. This e-book was going to be my tool to make the money to pay for my surgery. I have made a few sales, but not nearly enough for to cover the cost of the back surgery that I so desperately need.
I now plea with you to find a place in your heart to make any donation towards my surgery. In return I will send you my e-book, no matter how big or small your donation is, any donation will be greatly appreciated.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and empathy.
