I am shocked that I have come to this. Yet I never judged or declined to help those in need, it is simply odd that I have landed in the spot I'm in.

I am a Nurse (Hospice) receiving Disability, and waiting to get back to work. I deal with severe spinal problems, I have had multiple back surgeries, multiple spine procedures, and now live a life in pain daily. No crying here, I am an advocate for others that live in Chronic Pain.

In Jan.'12, I blew out my knee that has already had 2 surgeries. I am waiting for MRI, and results that will tell so much more--a 3rd knee surgery, or back to work?

It is this interim point that I am asking for help to get through.

The last home I was living in, turned out to be a home with several types of Abuse going on. It was there I hurt my knee, and was treated like an animal. I left at the end of Jan., for my own safety, and am staying with family this month,who really can't afford me.

***I was blessed to find a reasonable place to rent for March, it is getting in there that is the issue monetarily. My family can not help me now, (or I wouldn't be here asking). They have been there for me, gave me a couch to sleep on, and ears to cry to.

If anyone who reads this remembers the care they received from a caring and educated nurse, and wants to help out, just know that I am striving to get back to nursing, to make money again, etc. In pain or not! I don't let that keep me down. I am not a lazy person, and actually I hate not being able to work right now!!

Thanks for reading...AND THIS WILL BE PAID FORWARD!!

Hi
My husband, who is a Vietnam vet, passed away recently (October 8th, 2011) from Bone and Lung Cancer at home. First of all, he wanted to spend the rest of his life home with me and our pets (three Mini Dachshunds and two kitties). Also, the VA wouldn't be able to control his pain enough so that he could enjoy the remainder of his life so he went under Hospice care. They strive for quality of life and they were amazing.

The problem with that was that when you die at home, the VA covers nothing at all. Had he died in the VA they would've covered his funeral expenses. We didn't have life insurance. He had started a policy, but the bill for the first payment came in on Monday, the 10th. He died Saturday the 8th.

He died here at home and then was placed in the funeral home morgue until we could come up with enough of a down payment for his funeral (I believe it was $2000.00) I still owe something around $5,000. He stayed in that morgue for around three weeks before we could gather up that money. Not a good way to treat a vet at all.

I had left my job to take care of and be with him until he died, this is what he wanted. We didn't have insurance or any kind of state medical help. We lived on his disability check that he received monthly. There are no survivor benefits, VA or Social Security I've been told either. We had only been married a year. We have been together since 2002, but got married Sept. 21, 2010. We had our first anniversary a couple weeks before he died. As far as I know, SS people have told me we must have been married for ten years in order to get any kind of survivor benefits.

We had sold our boat, truck, and spent any money that we had toward our living expenses and to help with down-payment on funeral.

Now, I'm back to work but it is part time, I make $7.50 per hour (sometimes as little as 20 hours every two weeks). Telephone survey taker. I don't qualify for state help other than food stamps.

I've been looking for work since he died and not getting any responses at all. I am on the Michworks website numerous times a day, every day besides checking the local papers, and any other things I can think of.

Right now as I write this, I am due to lose our home (we rented this for the last nine years). My rent was due on the first. I have borrowed money, sold household items, and gotten help from the area charity places that I could. Every month has been a struggle and every month I think "okay, I've gotten the rent paid this month and I SHOULD have a new job by the next time the rent is due", but sadly it is not working that way. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm beginning to lose faith. I absolutely cannot get rid of our pets either. I promised I would never let anything happen to them and I wont. Besides, they are our little ones, our family that we had together. They are also what is keeping me going. I cannot imagine life without them and him too.

I am at the end of my rope now. I didn't want to resort to this and it really is a blow but I don't know what else to do anymore.

I hope that there is someone out there that will read this and be able to help me somehow.

Thank you so much.

I graduated from a four year school with a degree in Criminal Justice and went from there to law school. After a year of law school I decided it wasn't for me. I had a job as a Home Health Aide and loved what I was doing and decided that I wanted to try to go back to school to try to become a Hospice Nurse. I have $80,000 in student loan debt and therefore taking out more loans is really not an option. Any donation that you could make would be greatly appreciated.

I have always help my family friends and strangers in need of a place to stay, food, ride, money clothes ect. Well due to a move, divorce from an abuser and surgery, I thought things were looking up when I got my career moving for a non profit senior resident center, then after a year offered a great position in management for a nursing home but this is a rural community and I did my job well. Due to the economic environment I was let go and my old job already replaced me. Im on unemployment. If I can move to a bigger city, like near los angeles (I have a free place to stay) then I will never be without a job. Currently I volunteer my time with hospice and driving seniors to their doctor appts and errands. My car is old but paid for I need auto repairs in the amount of 2,000; dental work 800; Relocation expenses to move to California 6000; and a job masters degree in healthcare in san fernado valley California I have a paypal account or you can send the money directly to the vendors in kind to me. My dad is a retired veteran from Vietnam era, he works for above minimum wage and I live with him currently. He gets his retirement too but he needs a new fence for his house, I helped with all thee renovations but being unemployed I can offer the labor but the materials are about $2500.00 or $4500 installed he would never ask for a handout but he also needs extensive dental work and replace his implants front teeth from 40 years ago from accident his smile means everything to me. With that said once im able to get back on my feet and return to work, I will be able to help others too! Thankyou for any assistance you can provide in these matters .

I am looking for help because my situation has gone from bad to worst. I have been battling a medical condition called Ankylosing spondylitis. I am also taking care of my mother who is 89 years old and in kidney failure, and to make matters worst, my nephew, who has been living with us since his mother's death, was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma and undergoing treatment at MD Anderson in Houston, Texas.

I was out of work for over a year because of the pain and inflammation that is constant. Last month I was forced to go back to work despite of my medical condition because of the expenses of traveling back and forth to get chemo therapy for Chris, the expense of adult care. Additionally, my mother was place on hospice care last week.

Then, of all things my car breaks down. Since there is no public transportation, I need help getting my car fixed. If I can just get some help with the repairs to my car, we can make it.
We have sold everything we could sale, we have cut back on food to 2 meals a day and we have no extra anything. This has been going on for almost a year. We have been denied social security benefits as well as medicaid, which is in appeals, but in the mean time, I need to get to work.
Can you please help the mechanic says oil leak and struts problem. I would be willing to set up a payback.

My wife is a nurse. She works Hospice. For the twenty plus years I've known her, the one thing I could say about her is that she is a very giving person. The things she does to make sure everyone else is cared for, the way she puts everyone else before herself, are some of her best defining characteristics. Our son, bless him, is almost exactly like her. But now, as the holidays loom, she's become very ill.

My wife had uterine cancer. They performed surgery this weekend, and were surprised to find a lot more cancer outside the uterus and of a more aggressive type than their tests indicated.

Now we are looking at at least 6 months of chemo and radiation therapy. She goes in this weekend to have another tumor biopsied.

She's on leave of absence from work. I have a job, but it pays terribly. I'm looking for something better. When it was just going to be one surgery and done, we knew things would get tight, but her recovery would let her get back to work without us losing anything. Now with her being out of work a further six months, we just don't know how we're going make it all work.

We're on a medical card now, so the bills from her treatment are paid. We get food stamps, so we can eat. What we don't have is a way to pay the mortgage or car payment or any of the other bills that come up on a monthly basis. My paychecks are far from enough. I'm going to work every shift they give me, but by myself, I can't do it.

Every little bit helps. Thank you, and god bless.

Second stage squamous cell carcinoma
Oral cancer
That's what she has
Than's what is taking the life of my best friend and sister
I haven't seen her in 9 years
This will be last time I get to say good bye
I live in Idaho, she lives in Florida, thus the reason why I have not seen her in so long.
Hubby works but it makes just enough to pay rent, most of the bills and keep gas in the car or we would pay for it ourselves.
It will cost $1700 for me to fly down and see her and stay in a hotel as the person she is staying with does not have room to house me while I am there.
If I had not been told yesterday that she has been refered to hospice I would have kept trying with just yard sales but this is the last minuets of her life.
I need to be there to hold her hand and let her know I am there. I just need to be there.
Please help if you can.
Thanks and God bless.

This is a not a request for help to just travel the country and sight see or go on a cruise. I lost my job in November of last year. My Mother passed away from breast cancer and heart complications, I had to take sick days to see to her care and then for the final move to hospice. The company I worked for had strict attendance policies which I of course cannot blame them for or everyone would take advantage of it. I have been unable to find work since and not for lack of trying. I have finally had a job offer but as I live on the East Coast and the job is in the Pacific Northwest, I do not have the money to make a move like this in my current financial situation. I also need a little help to get a (cheap) truck so I can get there with my belongings. The job is on a horse farm and my "horse stuff" will not fit in my car, neither would my car make it that far (1991 Grand Marquis). My home is now in foreclosure and I just spent the last of my money to pay my electric bill.
I never thought I would have to resort to this type of desperate measure just to survive. I have the chance to start over with a great job, I just need to get there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Any help I receive will be payed forward as my situation improves.
Upon request to those who have donated I will supply copies of all expenses incurred, i.e; gas, food, and lodging.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

My nephew has been battling stage 4 neuroblastoma since he was 5 and now he is 11. It has been a long grueling process for him. This week he was placed on hospice. I need at least 500 dollars to go see him since I am a single mom of 4 and have to pay for tolls, gas and expenses to go to him. I have no money and we are all heart broken right now. Time is limited and my car also needs repairs, plus I'm behind on my insurance and I'm behind on bills because I'm a returning student raising my kids with no help or job.

Hello,

Thank you for taking a moment to look at my post. My need is surely much less urgent than the needs of many others on here, but I must ask for help.

I work for a non-profit hospice who recently had to eliminate part of my position to save money. It looks like I might get some hours back, but right now I am having trouble paying bills, particularly for diagnostic tests and doctors visits as we try to identify my autoimmune problems. I know too that losing weight would help me with my pain, energy level, and so much more. I generally eat pretty healthy foods, so I need to kick-start weight loss. I want to do the ideal protein diet but cannot afford it right now. If you are able to help me, I would benefit is so many ways and would endeavor to help others in turn.

Many thanks, and peace be with you.

So, I guess this is where I tell my story and list my reasons for needing assistance. This isn't so much begging as a loan request because I do intend to repay every cent to anyone who feels inclined to help.

Basically, I grew up in and out of group/foster homes because both of my parents were heroin addicts. Before I was taken away from them at age four we lived in junky squat motels where my father would boost and my mother would prostitute to support their habit. Eventually they were both arrested for crimes committed to support their habit and that's when I was made a ward of the state.

For a brief period my father got out of prison, cleaned up, and I lived with him from when I was about 8 to 11. He got me out of the foster home I was living in, met a woman at the church he started attending and got a job as a truck driver. While he was gone at work she would beat me continuing the abuse I endured previously in the foster homes I was shuffled through. It didn't take long until he started using again, and we found out that he had contracted AIDS from sharing dirty needles while he was in prison. During the time he was sick I ended up having to take care of him every day after I got home from school because my abusive stepmother was either at work or would have nothing to do with him when she wasn't. Of course, he got progressively worse and my step-mom decided she no longer wanted to support either of us, so she stuck him in a hospice. I came home from school one day and the paramedics were loading him into the back of an ambulance. For the next month she would not tell me where he was or let me contact him. At the end of that month, she left me on the doorstep of my grandmother's house (mom's mom) and was gone.

My father died about 3 weeks after that, but because my biological mother was living at my grandmother's as well we did make daily trips to see him those last weeks. A small mercy being able to spend some time with him before he died. My biological mother had gotten out of prison after my father had and had moved in with my grandmother because she was trying to get clean, but that did not last long and while we would go visit my father she would cop dope and fix up my dying father in front of me, as well as use herself. A couple weeks after my father died she split back out onto the streets leaving me in the care of my grandmother.

Needless to say with so much turmoil in my life I freaked out at this point. My grandmother couldn't handle her newly teenage grandson with so many emotional problems and kicked me out because I was so unruly. I lived on the streets, in and out of group homes until I was about 16 where finally I landed in a well run group home with staff that actually cared about the kids that lived there until I graduated high school. I re-established contact with my grandmother and mother who was once again trying to get clean. That didn't last and when she was out on the streets this time caught a lengthy prison sentence.

When I turned 18 I had to leave the group home so I stayed with friends and lived on the streets for a while again, but eventually ended moving back in with my grandmother. Not long after that she ended up being diagnosed with lung cancer. I spent the next few years nursing her, taking her back and forth to chemo and radiation treatments everyday after working the night shift as a waiter. During that time my mother got out of prison, but could no longer run the streets because now she was diagnosed with emphysema.

My grandmother did have a brief remission, but finally did succumb to her disease. After that, my mother's disease started getting progressively worse and worse. To top it all off after that she herself was also diagnosed with lung cancer. Thankfully during that time I did have some help taking care of her because I found a wonderful woman who became my fiancée. We took turns taking my mother to her chemo and radiation treatments.

Now, there is a lot more detail to this story with many more ins and outs, but that is the general outline. I guess you're probably wondering where the begging comes in and what I need it for?

Ok, here goes:

During that time my fiancée's horse riding lesson business tanked, and because of the nature of my mother's disease someone always had to be home with her because she would fall asleep sitting up and choke her self to death so someone always had to be home with her precluding at least one of us from having a regular job. We got a small stipend from the state for taking care of her in home, and she would do web design and find odd jobs off of craigslist/the internet and that's how we'd survive every month.

Unfortunately it ended up not being enough to survive or get my mother to her treatments every day. She was on medicare and the closest hospital that would accept her insurance was 40 miles each way. So, she ended up shoplifting groceries for us and got caught. I bailed her out and we took care of her case, or at least we thought we had. Cut to 2 days ago, my fiancée and I are awoken by bounty hunters stating that she missed a court date and they had to take her in. Her bail is $20,000 because now she has a failure to appear, and since my mother died about 6 months ago she's been taking care of me and has been the sole bread winner like I was when her business was tanking.

Our rent was due 3 days ago and the manager of the extended stay hotel place we live at told me we needed to be out by yesterday. I have about $10 to my name and if I don't have $600 to him in the next day or two I am sure his patience is going to run out and me, and my two dogs are going to be out on the streets, my fiancée will not have a home to come back to when she gets out of jail, and we will lose all of our stuff. If any of these details are unclear of if you have any questions about my situation please do not hesitate to ask.

If there is anyone out there that is inclined to help us in any way our gratitude would be eternal. As I said, this would be a loan. We would both work to pay you back as quickly as possible and I am not opposed to working for it now if someone has work for me to do. Also, if anyone would be inclined to help bail her out we could pay you back even more quickly. Neither of us has any family to fall back on or ask for help so this is the last thing I could think to do.

Feel free to contact me any time, and I will get back to you as soon as I can! Thank you for reading this, and considering to help. My gratitude is immense and eternal.

I have posted on here before regarding my bad stroke of luck this month and it is not getting any better. Between needing money to get my house off of tax sale, keeping the utilities on, my car engine has just taken its last breath and now having to provide hospice care for my terminally ill aunt, I am going to lose my mind. I was applying for jobs up until this point but now am forced into a position, choose to continue to provide care for my aunt or look at a dollar as my motivation for either putting her in a nursing home or leaving her alone. She is handicapped and has the mind of a 3 year old, she would not understand why she was being left in such a place, she does not even understand that she has liver and lung cancer, she just knows she hurts.This is really emotionally taking it's toll. I guess I have to say that if I do not pay these taxes soon, I am going to be homeless anyways and since I live in an area that does not have a very active public transportation system..how the heck am I getting anywhere to work to begin with. I realized how much my 'family' is not a help today when I had to beg for someone to keep an eye on her and let me go and get the items she needs for her care that is not covered by her insurance and even after agreeing to it, I was rushed to hurry back.I am wondering what I did in life for things to continue to hit the bottm of the barrel and not back up like everyone tells me things will go.How much more can on person try?? So I will say this, I am reaching out for anyone who can help me. My original need was 7156.23 which honestly, to get another vehicle right now is a priority, but we have to have a place to live first. I am not sure who this is reaching but advice is also welcome. Sometimes it helps to hear others perspectives on things when you just do not know which way to turn.

I am 39 years old. I have 3 beautiful children 17 years old, 12 years old and a just turned 1 year old. I just separated from my ex husband 4 years ago after 14 hard years of abuse. It has been very difficult trying to climb back up after the disaster. Everything from my marriage was in my name because I was the only one who ever took care of stuff, so when my husband decided he didn't want to work or pay bills, I got stuck with all the repossessions and bad credit (his boat, his truck, the house). So that left me with the kids, bad credit, no child support, and a job with unsteady hours.
What really stunk, is I thought I had friends and family that would be there for me in my time of need, but when I needed help for the first time in my life, everyone disappeared.
I spent my whole life helping and doing for others. I was the person everyone depended on. I was the person everone could rely on. I was always the first person to help a fellow man. I would give anyone my last dollar. I worked for Hospice, Homecare, and Mortuary Transport... I did the jobs no one wanted to do. I took in about everyone in my family at one time or another (mom, brother, cousin, and some friends too). I took care of them like they were my children. Even though I was on a very limited income, I took in my grandpa and cared for him 24 hours a day for 4 years to keep him out of a nursing home. I barely made over minimum wage, and his children made ALOT of money, yet I am the only one who stepped up to the plate. I took in a coworker 20 years older than me and nursed him back to health. I always would help a strnger in need, once I found a little old lady in the Publix bathroom that had pooped her pants and had it all over the walls and herself. Everyone ignored her, but I decided to jump in and help clean her up and get her to her car so not to get embarrassed. My best friend is 40 years old with terminal cancer and 7 kids and a downs syndrome brother in law she cares for. Sadly enough, she is the only one who has been here for me emotionally. I have been trying to help her the best I could until recently things have got so bad for me, I can not be there for her. I cant help any one if I can't help myself. I could tell you too many stories, but there is not enough space here to fit them all. The point is, I had never asked for help. I was always self sufficient, I always fended for myself. I always said, I would never ask for help unless it was absolutely dire, and I lived comfortably knowing that with all I had done for others, that if I ever needed for anything, they would flock to my side.
Well, when my separation happened, and now that everything has gone downhill, not one person has stepped up to the plate friends nor family. I went without heat for my children and newborn baby this last year. There have been days that I had no food for them. They have had to go without many necessities. I have been in constant fear of loosing electric, water, or a place to live. I have a broken down vehicle. I have done my best to keep things afloat, but now I feel like I am on a sinking ship and no one wants to throw me a life preserver, even though I am the one who handed them out! I need only to get back on dry land so I can move forward and be self sufficient again. What I need is to catch up on rent and utilities, fix my vehicle, tag and register my vehicle. These are my necessities to keep surviving. Once I get out of this hole, I know I can keep myself afloat. I am also worried about Christmas, but I am sure keeping a roof above our heads is the most important thing, and I believe my children know this. Feel free to contact me at jclark398@cfl.rr.com with any questions or further info. Thank you.

This is a Memorial to my brother who died of Cancer in 2006.
We wish to aid in the support of Community Hospice groups everywhere. Hospice is currently undergoing a financial hard time and needs our help. Hospice does a job that really helps. Take it from one who knows what they do.During my brother's final time, they provided many services that we the family could not.

Won't you take a few moments and donate? Any sum will help.
Thank you

My dad is the loving father of 3. He is 52 and has 3 grandkids who he adores. He has been with my mom since they were in highschool they were highschool sweet hearts. He worked hard for us his entire life struggling to give us the best he could. Then about eight years ago was told he had CLL. The chronic form of lukemia. He was tired a lot of the time for the first few years but seemed okay otherwise.then his bloodwork just went downhill and he got weaker and weaker from there slowly worsened. My parents live in northern Maine and the cancer center is 100 miles from their home.Their car broke down and for months he could only go to the local doctor just to get blood readings. The American Cancer Association has a volunteer program to drive patients to treatment but no one where they live.I live more than300 miles away too. so by the time they got the car fixed (months)he was too sick for even chemo. Now we are just trying to keep him comfortable for his final months they say there is not anything else to do he is now in hospice care. He is being creamated his wish. I am just asking for help with his final expenses and to take some of the burden off my mom after he is gone would give him some peace he could not get life insurance because he was already sick.
So please please anything would help our family be at peace and let my fathers final days be a little less worrisome.

thank you
