Family of six in dire need of help!!!!!

Posted by familyofsix on 2012-03-13 03:58:36

My husband recently lost his job, and due to the job market being so poor in our area, neither of us have been able to find work. We have four small children, one of whom has severe developmental disabilities and may require life long care. After these last few months of struggling to make ends meet, we have burnt through all of our savings and are running out of options. We both want desperately to change our situation, for our children's sake, and are determined to go back to school and further our education so that we can give our children the life they deserve. We have set up meetings with an advisor and our working towards enrolling in our local community college, and are both acitively seeking work. We don't have much family close by that is willing to help, and we are coming dangerously close to having our electric shut off if we do not come up with the money soon. We are down to our last dollar and have nowhere else to turn. We have applied for a local assistance program but it can take up to three months before we are approved, so there is no way to get the help we need before it is too late. Please know that we are not just bums. It kills us to even have to ask for help, but we just don't know what else to do. My husband is a partially disabled USMC war veteran and I have been a Stay at home mom for most of my adult life. We are good, honest, hardworking people who are just down on their luck, with four small, beautiful children depending on them. all we need is a little bit of help. We have so many goals for our future, but if we can not pay this electric bill, we will be evicted from our home and wont even have a residence to use to apply for the financial aid we need for college. We really appreciate any and all help, and want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!

please, for our son

Hello my name is Kevin, I'm asking for help for my family. I have a 2 yr old son who is not biologically mine. I've been taking care of him since day one, this baby is the light of my life, he brings me joy everyday when I come home from work to see his beautiful smile when he runs to me yelling "daddy". I love this little boy with all of my heart like he was my own. Recently from out of no where his biological father served my wife to get custody of him. Keep in mind he has never seen him nor wanted anything to do with him until now. It kills me to even think about our little baby boy leaving our home with a stranger, I love him so very much and it breaks our heart for our son. We need $2500 to retain a lawyer and fight this. we just don't have the extra money when we are already on a budget it would be a blessing if anyone could help us (even a little bit will help), Thank you.

Need help in a bad way

Posted by bthumpber on 2012-02-22 23:58:09

I am from Flint, MI. When I entered the career force things were booming. I became a project manager at a local stone shop. I was paid well, had good benefits, and lots of vacation time. Life was grand. Then due to the economy busrting i was let go. He said he had no choice. Half of the shop was let go. Eventually the company crumbled. I've been out of work for almost 3 years now. Thank God my wife has a good job or we would be out on the streets. To make matters worse I have become disabled. Even to the point that I can't work if there were work in this city. I worry my wife will leave me. I have appled for disablity and was rejected. I then got an attorney and she is helping me appeal it. My wife does everything she can but it just doen't pay all the bills. I wish there was more I could do but I'm just not able, at least for now, to provide. It kills me inside. Please know that I am a good man fallen on hard times. Anything will help. Thank you

The montly choice between food and medication is a very real thing.

I have been on a medication for the last ten years of my life.I was getting by fine until I was fired from my job and my mother got diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Now i cant even put food on my table nevermind pay my medical bill. I never thought I would ever have to ask another for help but Im at my end. Suicide is looking like a option, And Im really a big hearted persion I kills me to even think of it. I pray and love you all who would consider helping me in advance. I wouldnt mind getting to know and paying you back once im out of this. Thank you so much. Kenny

NEED EMERGENCY CASH

Posted by vbates on 2011-11-28 10:58:14

Hello and God Bless You for taking the time to read my story. I am an Industrial Electrician awaiting a new job assignment, as I have been for a while now. I work for a Temp. Staffing agency based out of Ohio. With the holidays coming up the jobs are few and far between right now. I have been looking into other employment options every day, but with our economy its horrible. This really kills me to ask for help but my children have not grew up like I did, poor and without. They have always been very blessed, although this year is looking terrible. I sat and cried for hours the other night because my son asked "Why isn't the tree up yet Daddy" My Christmas Tree is always up at Halloween and filled with presents by then as well. This has been an extremely tough year for us we have had to move twice this year already and that is not us. Its breaking my heart, I call my company daily and harrass them to get me out on a job, just nothings available right now. Im getting unemployment right now but in Tn thats a whole 270 a week, once we get grocerys and pay bills im going backwards. I could really use some help right now to obtain a descent Christmas for my children like they deserve. Thank you for taking the time to read this posting, It's strange I'm usually the one getting names off the tree's at walmart to help other kids, because when im working full time I make really good money and I too love to help people, Its just weird being on the other side of this, and now I feel like Im all alone in this battle. I pray to God every day to send some work my way to help me out of this bind I am in right now, And I know he will I just have to be patient and keep my faith strong. God Bless you and have a great day...Crossville Tn. Also my vehicle was repossesed the day before thanksgiving which was extremely depressing for me and my family. I have a Paypal Acct. email id is vernonbates49@gmail.com any small amount would greatly be appreciated I need to come up with vehicle money ASAP PLEASE HELP MY FAMILY OUT OF THESE HARD TIMES PLEASE

I can’t believe my life has come to this. First and foremost, it is important to know that I am a hardworking, responsible individual. I love going to work every day as a child and family therapist knowing that I have the ability to help make positive changes in others’ lives. I also, for whatever reason, feel very uncomfortable asking for help. I don’t think I have ever asked anyone for financial help in my life, let alone a “donation”. I was always taught that if you want something…. YOU WORK FOR IT! I have had a job since I was 13 yrs old and it taught me to appreciate the value of the dollar and hard work. But what happens when you physically can’t? My values speak to who I was, who I am and who I want to be and why I am worthy of your help.
• Be respectful, giving, loving and kind to others.
• Treat others as you would want to be treated.
• First and foremost dedication to my family and friends
• If you want something, you have to work for it because nothing in life is free
• Work hard and you can achieve anything you set your mind to
• If you believe in something, be passionate about it
• Love what you do for work – Life is too short
• Do not be selfish, but selfless – be there or give to others as much as you can
Resilient for many years –struggling through a childhood of undiagnosed ADHD - low self esteem, disruptive and impulsive behaviors, poor attention, disorganization, ambivalence about making life decisions, flunking out of college my freshman yr at 18 yo (which led to me having to pay any subsequent schooling on my own), moving and attending a new school at the beginning of my 8th grade year with a scoliosis brace that had to be worn 23 hours a day, having major surgery at 14 yo and missing 3 months of my freshman yr. As an adult, moving from NJ to Ma away from my family who I was extremely close to due to a marriage that didn’t work, losing my father to cancer and watching him waste away in front of me and feeling helpless. I did return to school as an adult committed to helping others and figuring out my own insecurities. Over 7 yrs (25-32 yrs old) received my bachelors degree from Rutgers University with high honors and my masters in clinical social work from Columbia University also with honors.
I know what I am capable of and I know how much I have to give to others. But at this point in my life, I also need to be honest with myself about my physical limitations.
When I was 12 yo I was diagnosed with a severe case of scoliosis and had to wear a body brace for 1 ½ yrs. Bad timing, I guess… I had just moved and was starting my 8th grade yr in a new school. Two yrs later (1983) I had major reconstructive surgery (14 hours, in a body cast 6 mos, couldn’t ride in a car or sit for more than 15 mins a day for 3 mos) and my spine was fused from T3 to L4 – all at 14 yo! Over the years, my back problems were just “part of my life”. Now at 43 I am disabled and in need of another major surgery due to collapsed discs that are compressing the nerves in my lower back. The pain I endure is affecting my ability to sit, stand or walk to any period of time. I had to leave my last job as an outpatient therapist a couple of years ago due to my inability to commit to a schedule because of my pain. I have been taking pain pills, which I do not want to become addicted to and have worked out an arrangement with a caring chiropractor. Not to mention at work I have kids, teens and their families who depend on me to help them, some of who I don’t charge because they can’t afford it. So, my schedule is minimal, my bills are racking up and I continue to try to help people sometimes at my own expense (physical). I have no health insurance because I can’t afford it, I live in a 800 square foot apartment that I share and I drive a 1998 Nissan Maxima that has over 200,000 miles on it! I don’t have “things” because I don’t NEED material things. It kills me to ask for help, especially monetary. It’s hard for me to accept help but I have no problem giving, lending or helping other people. My friends say that I give “too much”, but I feel that if I have it to give or I can do something to help someone else be happier, less stressed or more comfortable than I will. And I’ve been taken advantage of many times because of this – for example, 3 yrs ago, I lent a co-worker $5000 to assure that as a single mother she would have a dependable car for her and her 3 kids. She has not paid me anything yet. Gave another friend my car for 2 weeks to use because her car was in the shop and she couldn’t afford a rental. It was definitely an inconvenience, having to walk to and from work a mile, having to way to run errands until the weekend, etc. But I did it because I knew how much it meant to her and how much it helped. I then find myself thinking … who will be my angel when I need one?? And I do…. Please, please help!! I don’t have a choice right now. I need surgery, physical therapy/personal training in order to continue working for others. Thank you so much for any contribution you can make! God Bless!

Drowning in debt - any help at all.

Posted by Plex on 2011-09-29 15:58:49

Pardon me while I choke down the last of the pride-burger, and the Humble pie dessert. I am about out of options, hope, and faith in humanity.

My lady and I ought to be living decently enough on our income, you'd think - but it's just been one thing after the next after the next. Between cars getting sick, my lady losing one job to an injury, my own low wage... We're not making it, to be frank. At this point, I don't know what else to do - we can't get public assistance, not even food stamps, we gross too much. Nevermind that we don't NET that... We can't even answer the house phone for all the harrasser calls these days. We're often short on the rent. (Thank God that the landlord lets us make good late...) If we could get just a little help, in the grand scheme of things, we'd be able to be OK, to help others as we'd much prefer to do.

Here's how it breaks down:

Absolute best possible, turning backflips in the yard, what do you want I'll give it to you, anything short of our children where do I sign and do you want it in blood target: $7500 free and clear. That kills about all the debts, all the loans, fixes the van, fixes the car, rent is paid. I wish I thought it likely. I know, it isn't.

The We-have-a-fighting-chance level: $3250. Again, it clears the critical debts, gets the cars on the road. We have work to do, but we can manage.

The Take-off-the-pressure level: $1000. Gives us enough room to breathe, though Christmas will be lean.

I am terrible at asking for help. I feel like a failure as a person, as a father, as a provider. I'm sure most of the people here feel just as bad as I do. But I'm also clinging to the hope that somewhere out there is the person or people that will prove the pessimist in me wrong.

Anything you can afford to give, be it thousands of dollars or just a buck, will be greatly appreciated.

Please, do what you can. Not just for us, but for anyone you know like us - good folks, who've caught a bad run of luck.

-Plex

Just need a small amount to get back on track

Posted by Angel65 on 2011-09-29 06:58:02

I'm a single mom who recently switched jobs between two different divisions of the same company. My old division screwed up my pay and I lost about 2/3rd of a paycheck. They say my new division is responsible for correcting the error, my new division says there's nothing they can do to correct it because I wasn't on their payroll and they didn't make the error. I'm now behind two car payments and one rent payment, my landlord has been understanding but he will only wait so long. I'm also a month behind on my utilities (I already cancelled my cable service). My fiance works in construction and got laid off a year ago, he has been working odd jobs here & there but he can't find anything permanent. We don't qualify for any kind of assistance, not even temporary, because I "make too much". I need about $2000.00 to get completely caught up and not be past due on anything. It kills me to post here but I've already exhausted my options - I have very few family/friends who arent able to help.

Need help please?

Posted by Kittie on 2011-09-22 00:58:28

I am 38 years old, mother of 3, & currently trying to find a job, but this economy!! Not even McDonalds is calling me back! I have never asked for any help like this before, even having lived on the streets for a few months, but am swallowing my pride & asking for help now. My utilities are about to get shut off & my rent is coming up, but no money to pay any of my bills & if it wasn't for the foodbank I would have no food. I really do not want to live on the streets again, so PLEASE help me? I am desperate enough now to ask for help, as much as it kills my pride.

Recently scammed Soldier looking to get out of debt...

Posted by Leci on 2011-09-08 22:58:30

Hello everyone. I am an active duty Army Soldier. Recently, I was looking for a loan to pay off all debt, go back to school to get my teaching certification and put a little aside into savings. Unfortunately, I have credit problems from college that still haunt me and hinder me from getting a regular bank loan. Long story short, I researched bad credit loans online, found a company which looked great, got approved, and got scammed out of a large amount of money I did not have. I took out many small local, finance loans to secure this one bogus loan and now I am paying on these six high interest finance company loans. I'm not making excuses. I was gullible, made a bad decision and am now learning a very expensive lesson.

I have a one year old and it breaks my heart when on the first of the month I only have $90 left before gas and groceries are purchased. On the 15th I only have $70 before gas and groceries. It kills me that I can't provide for my son the way I would like. I want him to have the world, and I can barely keep him diapered and fed.

I would appreciate any and all assistance that anyone can offer. Thank you for your time and God bless.

please help me pay for my daughters PRESCHOOL

Posted by beautifulbabies on 2011-08-01 01:58:18

Hi... I am a stay at home mom of two kids one 4 year old and a 16 month old.
My eldest, a girl, is about to start school this year in september.

My little girl has always been special and she is the most loving thing on earth. We didn't realize till about 6 months ago that she has a condition called opticnervehypopasia and that she is considered legally blind. The time before that we knew there was something wrong with her but none of the doctors could figure it out until we went to a bigger city in our state to a childrens hospital.
Because of her condition, she is also very small for her age and just isn't thriving like other 4 year olds. She has to take growth hormone shots and thyroid medicine and may need sex hormones later in life.

I hate giving her shots everynight.. she cries and it breaks my heart and i don't do it when my husband is home because it just stresses him out to the point he can't go to sleep. (he also does a lot of overtime.. so him not sleeping is very bad... especially since he has to drive a ways to get to work)

My husband works while i take care of the kids and we are doing the best we can.. but like so many other people these days, we are barely getting by. Some months we aren't. We arent' getting social security or medicaid for disabled children either, everything is tied up in paper work. We have family around us but they have been sick and are struggling financially too.

We can't pay all of our bills and it reallys kills me inside to know that we owe doctors that have helped us and family too, but... can't pay what is due to them. We have had to borrow $50 here $100 there more than a couple of times just to keep the electricity on.

My daughter hasn't had a lot of interaction with other kids her age and as a result she is socially awkward on the rare occasion she does see other children. She watches TV and she says she wants friends and to go to "school". With how things are going now, i'm not sure how my husband and i can make that happen for her.

I really want this badly for her... i just think that denying her this opportunity is just going to delay her developement even further. I have worked with her at home with her numbers, letters, shapes and so on..... and she can read simple words already. but she is such a talkative, outgoing kind of kid that loves to make people laugh that I do feel like at the tender age of 4 she senses that she IS missing out on something already...

And that's what i am hoping someone out there will help us give her. There is a preschool close by where she will be able to socialize and find friends and just be a little kid!

That would also be great for my youngest because that would allow him to be 'the baby' a little more. Since my daughter has had a lot of things going on with her where most of our attention had to be foccused on her since she is a high needs child.

The preschool is 3 hours a day 5 days a week and costs $5 a day and $2 for snacks.
Any amount of money/gift card or whatever you wish to send as a result of this post would be greatly appreciated....

1930 E 540th rd pleasant hope, mo 65725
you can also send throuh paypal.


If i don't recieve any money at all for this post... i thank you for taking the time to read this anyway.... writing about my family's struggle and mine atleast lifted a little of the ginormous weight on my shoulders for a little while...

Thank you.

Needing help with rent

Posted by Mommyof2mlw on 2011-07-23 04:58:44

I was layed off from my job about 3 weeks ago & have been looking for work ever since then but jobs are scarce in my hometown. I have 2 children I am also supporting ages 4 & 2. I really dont want to lose our home. I'm a single mother & I've always been very independent, so this kills me that I am not able to pay my bills on my own right now. Anything will help. Thank you & god bless!
Can you help my new mommy? She adopted me on 6/30/11 from an animal rescue organization. I spent the first 12 weeks of my life in a nasty puppy mill, and boy, was I happy to go home with her! I had a pretty good first day in my new home. I ate and drank a lot. Good thing - I only weigh two and a half pounds! The next morning I didn't feel very well. My mom knew something was wrong, so I went to the vet and was given an IV and some medicine to settle my tummy. The doctor told my mom to bring me back if I didn't start eating or drinking. Well, I didn't get better. My doctor told my mom to take me to an animal emergency center where they could keep an eye on me around the clock. The nice new vet sadly discovered that I have PARVO, a disease that kills 80% of untreated puppies. I guess I wasn't given the shot that would have protected me from this disease at the puppy mill. My mom has a job, but not a lot of extra money, but she decided that I deserved a chance to live, especially since no one loved me or cared about me before this. I was admitted to the hospital, and put in isolation. I have three IV's, and I take a lot of medicine. The vet and the techs are nice, but they have to poke and prod me a lot. It makes me cry. I'm getting better, but I am lonely and sad. Today the vet discovered that I have pneumonia. It could be caused by kennel cough or aspirating some vomit. My mom told the vet to just make sure I get well. She wants me to have a long life filled with love, lots of petting, long walks, and good food. All of my care is very expensive. So far my mom has spent close to $5000.00 to keep me alive and once I'm healthy I'll still need regular puppy shots and neutering. Can you find a few dollars to help my mom pay for my care? I don't know her too well yet, but I do know beyond a shadow of a doubt that she loves me.

Help for 11 years of struggling

Posted by dal77ton on 2011-06-20 18:58:55

I have been struggling so long I don't know where to begin. I was divorced in 1999 and took 40000 in marital debt. Then I spent 35000 in legel fees to get custody of my two sons. Their mother basicly abandoned them for her "new" life. I have been trying to pay off the debt but without much luck. I make the payments and never miss but interest kills me. My son dropped out of college and I now owe 14000 for his loans.
Any help your be appreciated. I would love to have a little less debt and a lot less worry and stress caused by the debt.
Thanks and God bless
Terry

When is it going to get better?

Posted by Givemeabrk on 2011-06-06 00:58:06

To whom it may concern:
I am so tired of not being able to get things going. Every time I think I am getting ahead of the game something happens. I am a good person and I have always had a positive outlook on life but I must say that lately, the last three years or so, I do not feel so good about things and i am worried. Actually, truthfully, I am very scared. I am far enough into debt that I get so stressed that I cannot deal with it and I am afraid of what I may do because crazy thoughts run through my head like suicide and so on. I have always been in control of any situations that come up financially but over the last few years I have not been able to deal and it kills me to see my family going through these rough times. I work; but I owe more than I make and there is nothing left and it gets worse everyday. Recent changes in my life have made it even harder and I am not sure what I am going to do. So I went online and found this website and thought at least I can try to beg. To some people it may not seem like much but $25,000 is what it would take for me to be able to breathe again. But honestly any little bit toward that amount would help a great deal and I would be forever grateful.
Thank you for taking the time to listen to me.
Sincerely,
John

Please Help - 25K of Debt is Killing Me

Posted by paulanthony31 on 2011-05-22 04:58:45

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my post.

When i was 18 i stupidly got myself into heavy debt with credit cards and loans to the point were my wages were not covering the monthly payments. For 4 years i was taking out more credit cards and loans to pay off my previous debts, this only stopped when my credit rating became so bad i could no longer get any credit. At the age of 22 i was made redundant from the company i worked for 4 years and with the redundancy money i received i was able to pay 2 months of payments off my debts so i could have enough time to find another job. Unfortunately i ended up being unemployed for 6 months and because of this i moved back with my mum, when i bulit up the courage to tell her about the amount of trouble i was in she ended up taking out a £25,000 loan in her name to pay my debts off. I ended up finding a job and have managed to pay off nearly £10,000 of the loan but thats just purely interest, i still need to pay a further £25,000 to clear the debt. I know there are far more people on this website whose pleas are more important than mine, whether that be health reasons or medical bills but any help you could give me would be appreciated so much. I desperately want to pay this off as i feel so guilty that this debt has put such a strain on my mums life, it kills me knowing that she has given up so much because of my selfish actions. Thank you for listening and taking the time to read this.

Help a Young, Struggling Family

Posted by Drynian on 2011-01-30 23:58:58

My wife and I are in need of $600 to pay our mortgage, car payment, and student loans for the month of February. I work 40+ hours a week with a minimum wage job (was laid off from working with the state in May of '10). My wife works as often as she can. She used to work 40 hours, but due to injuries suffered in a recent car accident, can only work between 5-10 hours a week. We have a one-and-a-half year old daughter who is the light of our lives, but it seems like more often than not we are faced with the choice between buying diapers or putting gas in the car. It kills me to admit that even with as much as I am working, I still cannot provide for my family. Any donations will be gratefully accepted. My wife and I thank you in advance.

In dire need of monetary help

Posted by downandoutgrandma on 2011-01-29 14:58:58

I am a grandmother of 2 grandsons. They live with me and I recently had a surgery to remove a foo and a half of my colon. One week after I had the surgery, my job called me and fired me over the phone...nice right? I am about to be evicted from my apartment and I am about to lose my car. I also have medical bills that need to be paid, along with all the utility bills. My electriciy was turned off, but I was able to ask a fiend for the money to get it turned back on. I have been a nurse for 12 years, but I can't go back to work right now. I also was recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. It is kicking my butt. Every joint hurts and it's very hard to get out of bed every morning, plus running after my 2yr old and 1yr old grandson just about kills me. I need clothing for them and toys/books for them. I don't want to be put out on the streets with my beautiful grandchildren. It's not their fault that the only person they have to rely on is me. One thing for sure is that they keep me going. If it weren't for them I would just give up completely, but I can't because I have these 2 precious sweeties to take careof. Please help me!!!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!! LEGAL FEES

Posted by tanya on 2010-11-20 00:58:58

Hi my name is Tanya L. I really don't know how to begin this is my first time ever asking strangers for help, but I'm extremely desperate. My 20 year old daughter has landed herself in Harris County jail here in Houston Texas. I'm needing to raise $10,000 dollars for an attorney. My daughter changed overnight, she went from a responsible young lady that was attending University of Texas in Austin, where she was studying to be a criminal attorney how ironic. We the family was so proud, all of sudden everything about her was different, her roomate call me and explain to me who my daughter was keeping company with and it was a bad crowd and she herself believe my daughter was on meth. I've raised my daughter as a single mother with very little help from her father. I thought we had beaten the odds, how painfully wrong I was. I traveled to Austin to see for myself and I was there for 3days before I made contact with my daughter. On day 2 I filed a missing report on my daughter, thank God she showed up unharm but clearly on drugs. I brought her home to Houston where it worsened and she was arrested twice for controll substance, which is a 3rd degree felony and now she faces 2-20years in prison. She truly is a good kid and she's begging me to help her and financially I just don't have it. Every lawyer I talk to is asking for $10k-15k and the price goes up if we take it to trial. Please if you can spare just a little, anything, I will be, there's no words to express how I would feel, extremely and utterely grateful. I know my daughter has broke the law and she should be held accountable, but she needs treatment not jail,the other inmates bullies her because she cries alot when she's on the phone and durning visits, its considered "weak". As a parent that kills me, I wish I could change places with her. Please help me hire a good lawyer for my daughter. I'm told with a skillfull attorney he could argue for Safe P its a drug program here in Texas. I'm all she has and you guys are all I have. Please, even the smallest will add up. Thank you and May God Bless Us All
