MS ruined my dream

Posted by daydreamer on 2012-05-22 13:58:59

I spent 5 years working so hard to achieve my goal of becoming the first person in my family to get their college degree. One year shy of graduating I was hospitalized and diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I lost my job and had to go down to part time due to health problems, and I no longer have the ability to continue on with my dream. I physically can not do it. My medical bills continue to mount and I now have $75,000 in student loans I have to pay back for something I will never be able to use. MS is an expensive disease to have, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I am devastated and completely lost. I am out of options and money and each day that passes is bringing more stress than the one before. I am doing everything I can but I can't keep up with the collection calls anymore. If you feel it in your heart to help I can promise your kindness will not go unrewarded.

I am looking for money to complete a degree program in Speech Language Pathology. I need to finish four courses over the summer to transfer into a four year university in the fall. I'm not looking for much. The tuition is $650.00. The school stated that they do not provide financial aid during the summer which is why I need assistance. I have Multiple Sclerosis and I am unable to work full-time to recieve tuition reimbursement, etc. from a job

Hello Everyone,

I am writing this because my mom has fallen on rough times and I am trying to find ways to help her but am currently running out of options. My mom is a phenomenal person, she raised me and my sister practically single handedly after my dad took off. While she was doing this she put her self through a masters program and achieved her dream job! To top this all off she did this while diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis!!! Well that disease has started taking her down hill and now she is looking to have to retire early because her health is going down to fast, to the point I am very worried. When my dad left, he pulled the medical insurance from under her and now she is left with a mound of debt which she cannot get out of. I have been selling about all my possessions, taking additional jobs etc… to try and find ways I can help more but as I said am out of options and looking for any kind souls to throw anything our way to help her out. I appreciate anything that you can do and thank you for your kindness.

Posted by Lonelykitty on 2012-05-15 11:58:00

I live in the bay area and rents on houses are very high.Since I really need a yard and garage,an apartment won't do.I also need room to set my photography equipment and a room to use as a library for how to books.having people over is just too disruptive in a multiple building.I just don't have enough room and I need more space for my business to get it going.Lack of space is making it very hard,as well as lack of privacy.

My husband was diagnosed with multiple myeloma three years ago. He underwent a bone marrow transplant, and is currently not working. Any help with our constant medical bills would be most appreciated. Thank you so much.

I am the 2%, or My Life as a Teen Mom

Posted by educatedsinglemama on 2012-05-14 02:58:09

Since today is Mother’s Day, I wanted to share my journey thus far and what it’s meant to be a mother for me. My story is unique in that I’ve overcome various obstacles to gain what some may call normalcy. Now I’m facing a struggle in which I’m hoping to tap into the kindness of the internet in order to help me through this hurdle.

I was raised by a single parent and grew up in a town where most families were on some sort of government assistance and could barely make ends meet. I was always taught to value what I had and that hard work will always bear its fruits. My high school was filled with kids who didn’t care about getting an education. I was a introverted “nerd” who took Honors and AP classes and saw education as a way to get out of a town that didn’t have much opportunity for growth. While I valued my education, I was also bored to death, even in my “accelerated classes,” so I stupidly acted out and started to party as high school kids do. I ditched class to drink and dabbled a bit in drugs because there was nothing else to do. Even as I partied, I still managed to remain on the honor roll for all 4 years. Fast forward to the beginning of my senior year, our class had 250 kids and throughout the year approximately half of the student body dropped out at one point or another, giving up on their 14 year investment in their education. I made it to the end, but while everyone was excitedly responding to college acceptance letters, I had to throw all of mine out. Why? I was pregnant. I fully accept responsibility for my actions, but sex was not talked about in my household. I had no idea I had access to birth control or condoms and foolishly made a mistake that would change my life. I went to my prom and graduation 3 months pregnant without anyone knowing aside from my family.

The summer after graduation was spent brainstorming options and finding a job to help support my unborn child. I decided to keep the baby, thinking I would give it up for adoption. I was too immature to take care of myself, and now a baby? No way. As the months progressed, I fell in love with the baby and decided to keep her and raise her with the help of my family. I was excited but deep inside I was depressed. I really wanted to go off to college and live the life of a student living on campus, making new friends, staying up late to cram for midterms and possibly travel a bit. I couldn’t do that anymore and the thought of experiencing college in any other way didn’t entice me. I also knew if I didn’t get an education, I’d be stuck in a cycle of dead end jobs all my life. I knew I didn’t want to struggle like I’ve seen my family fight just to put a decent meal on the table and keep the lights from getting shut down.

I started college two months after my daughter was born. She was perfection and an incredible motivator. I’ve always thought that she deserves something better, beyond what I can give her but I decided to try my best to give her an amazing life. Since I just had a baby, I wanted to explore the opportunities I had outside of a traditional classroom in college. Luckily, the local community college offered online courses which only required me to be in class on the first day, at midterms and during finals week. I did this for a year and a half until I took every online course possible. Then it was time for full immersion into college. Here came daycare and having to balance college life with working and a small child.

My average day in college looked like this: we’d have to wake up at the crack of dawn so my daughter and I could ride a 45-minute bus to school. Unlike most of my classmates, I had to dash straight from work to class or go to work right after class so that I could pick up my daughter from school at a proper hour. I was very fortunate to land a job in a small office as an office assistant during college that would later prove invaluable. The pay was ok, but I was allowed to tailor my schedule to be compatible with my changing class load every semester. After our day was done came another bus ride. Once we got home, I’d have to make dinner, pack us lunch for the next day, prepare her backpack with extra clothes plus wash and prepare a day’s worth of bottles for my daughter. After I put my daughter to bed was the only time I had for homework. I’d stay up until about 2am every night doing my reading assignments or writing papers only to have to get up 3 ½ hours later to start my day again.

I did this every day for 5 ½ years.

Was it worth it? Heck yeah. I got my bachelor’s degree on my wall as proof. I am the first person in my family to ever get a degree. I have multiple relatives my age who ended up dropping out for various reasons yet I managed to graduate (with honors!) while juggling a small child and a demanding job. Aside from raising my daughter, this is what I’m most proud of thus far. I read online that less than 2% of teen moms attain a college degree before age 30. I’m stoked beyond words to be a part of that 2% (Source) I hope that this struggle and success will set an example to my daughter and show her that hard work does pay off.

After college, I worked a few jobs that I wasn’t too keen on. Too corporate, too stuffy, too bureaucratic to evoke any change and make an impact. I wanted to wake up every morning and feel inspired to go to work. I didn’t just want a paycheck, I wanted to engulf myself within organization so that I could kick ass and take names. I also wanted a 401(k), health benefits and life insurance so that my bases could be covered in old age. But mainly I wanted to wake up invigorated every morning and be able to pay my bills. After college, my daughter and I moved into our first home. I loved waking her up in her room filled with the girliest of things. I was a proud mama–on my own, college educated and living life as an independent woman.

Independent but unfulfilled. That is, until I was introduced to the CEO of my most recent employer. We hit it off immediately and within two week was offered the chance of a lifetime. I was invited to join his multimillion dollar company and close-knit team as his right hand. I’d learn all the in’s and out’s of running a business in a dynamic industry and receive a nice salary. After a bit of contemplation, I decided to resign from my stuffy job to join a company I was proud to be apart of. My job was great. It was flexible, nurturing, educational and insightful. In a few short weeks, I was in the trenches with my boss handling everything from sales to contracts to finance to HR. That is, until the company suddenly went out of business. I won’t get into the details but I was told I’d have a month before we were all let go. This was the job I wanted to settle in and dedicate years to, not just a job really but a mission to which I was dedicated.

I was laid off in March with no severance pay as the company had nothing. I had a small savings which I tapped into as I began searching for a job. I had to file for unemployment for the first time, which was hard as I’ve prided myself on not having to use government resources to pay my bills. I have almost a decade of solid work history and yet I’m struggling to find a job. Places are hiring but they’re scarce and don’t always offer pay that can support a family.

My bills are piling up and I have family and friends that are in no position to help me out. Unemployment can only pay so much and it isn’t enough to put a home-cooked meal on the table or keep everything paid. I’m in the process of starting up two businesses–one that peddles vintage finds and another that provides folks with stellar resumes to land their dream job so that I can increase my cash flow, but in the meantime, I’m asking for any donations to my cause. I’m willing to offer any services in return for a donation over $30 via paypal. There’s a button below where your transaction will be processed safely and gratefully!

Please pass this on and +1 it, favorite it, retweet it and share in any way possible! No action is too small or unappreciated.

Thank you so much for letting me share my story with you.

Thank you so much for letting me share my story with you.
I have never been in this position before, and am not sure how this all works. My story starts almost 5 years ago when I had my first child. Immediately after her birth I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis as well as epilepsy. We live with my parents, my mother who is 100% disabled, my father who works two jobs but supporting all 3 of us with debt, and now the burden of my second child. He is due in 4 weeks and I do not have anything. No car seat, or even a bassinet or crib. I feel like nothing but a burden to my parents, as my health and medical bills started this downfall for my family. I have absolutely no help from the father as he is over $35,000 behind on child support. I am running out of options. My parents even tried loans and were denied left and right. I want my children to have a decent start and great childhood, as I did. Please help me give that to my children and take to pressure away from my parents.

I thank you for your time.

SUFFERING FROM CROHN'S DISEASE, NEED HELP!

Posted by jenbotch on 2012-04-27 13:58:05

I just got released from the hospital this week after having been there for a week. I also have a condition called pyoderma gangrenasum which causes debilitating ulcers on my legs. I went in to have a doc see my ulcer because it had gotten to the point where it was painful to walk. They took blood tests and found a slew of other things wrong. They found that I was Anemic, low Vitamin D right off the bat. Upon further tests including colonoscopy, CT scan, Enema and more they found a blockage and a small hole in my colon so I was admitting and pumped with medication. I started feeling better and after a week they finally let me go home. I am still on multiple medications and am struggling with getting things back to normal. My Crohn's disease has made my life a living hell at times. Some days I can't eat without pain, I suffer from arthritis like symptoms that make it painful to walk, it wakes me up at night so I have difficulty sleeping and now on top of that I have become moody and depressed. I am unable to work and have no income. I am in the process of retrying to get disability after being denied because I am only in my 30s and they think I can still work. Stress makes my condition worse and I cant help but be stressed every day. I get very little relief. I have a wonderful fiance who has been struggling to pay for all of our living expenses on his own and it is making his life dramatically harder as well. I need help. I am asking for your grace and kindness right now. It is increasingly difficult to be able to afford just daily items such as soap and shampoo, not to mention medications because I am unable to afford insurance. Please if there is any amount you can give, it would be wholeheartedly appreciated. I am in dire straights right now.. Thank you for taking the time out to read this..

Please help me with Graduate school.

Posted by Leannasan on 2012-04-25 18:58:41

Hello,
You may know me as Jessica. I have posted here to request donations for graduate school. Not only do I have a great deal of student loan debt from my Graduate education with a Masters of Science in Nursing Education, Acute Care, the amount only continues to grow. This year alone, I must renew my certifications, obtain a new nursing license for multiple states, move and graduate. My education requires another 4-5 flights to Alabama for exams as well as possible hotel reservations/car rents in order to complete my education. This adventure is extremely pricey so any donation you can provide will be greatly appreciated! You may donate via credit card or PayPal and the funds will be delivered through PayPal. I will never see your payment information though I will receive an email notifying me of your donation. Thanks so much!!

First time for everything

Posted by elleinad13 on 2012-04-21 08:58:23

Ok so I have never done this before and feel bad for asking about money but I am in desperate need for help. My rent($600) is due on the 3rd of the month and I cannot pay it at this time due to the crappy economy. I have been looking for a job and have had multiple interviews but no luck getting hired.

I recently finished school for Medical Assistant and love my work, but it seems everyone else in the field are more qualifed than I am. The only reason I am doing this is because of my son, we live in a great place and I would like to stay here and really have no other place to go. I have a very small family and my mother would of helped me but she passed away 2 years ago from a long battle with ovarian cancer.

If there are any generous people out there please help out, I will do whatever it takes to try and pay back. Thank you so much for taking the time and reading this. Have a blessed day

My house hold is in need. I have epilepsy and multiple tumors and some are cancerous. I have 2 young daughters and one has a multiple tumor disorder.recently my husband was laid off and is now in search for work. Our bills have stacked up and we have sold everything we owned to pay for electricity and rent last month. This month has been a full on struggle to cover home and utilities. If we don't pay we will be homeless at the end if the month. Our sruggle is to raise $4000 to cover our house electricity gas and water. I know its a lot to ask. We really need a blessing. If someone can help please contact me. please pray for my family

Escape

Posted by mbailey5 on 2012-03-11 17:58:03

Hello, the fact that I am writing this is making me realise that this has been the worst day of my life.

For the past two years I have been in love. A whirlwind romance which gave me a release from my miserable abusive upbringing. I moved in with this beautiful, kind, intelligent girl who I had fallen for. My parents did not approve and they saw her loosen their iron grip on me, she gave me the confidence that I never had to stand up to them.

I had to decide between my parents who had habitually beaten me, put me down, turned me into a shell of a person. or the only person that ever has and probably ever will love me. I chose her, and I haven't seen or heard from my parents since, part of my believes it was a perfect excuse for them to rid me of the son who had only ever disappointed them.

I was in dreamland, I was invited into her home and from day one it felt more like home than the cold loveless one I was brought up in. Everything was great for a few months and then she left a highly flirtatious conversation up on facebook with a man in which she was bragging at how many other men she had slept with in the past year. My life turned on its head. I gave her another chance after weeks of pain, tears and excuses. She convinced me everything was going to change. Three months on to that day I hear through a friend that she with another man in a nightclub the other day.

I am lost, I am trapped. I have no money. My parents do not care about me and the one person that I have ever loved has betrayed me multiple times.

I feel humiliated, i feel physically sick, I am mentally and physically exhausted. I have nowhere to go, i need to escape. If I leave her then I am homeless if I stay with her then I am bound to being abused again, this time not physically as with my parents but mentally. My heart cannot take this torment anymore.

My mouse is hovering above booking a flight to Amsterdam tomorrow. I have chosen there because of the large UK community. I want a new environemnt, i need to meet people for the first time in my life. I want to live and work somewhere else but I just do not have the funds to do it. I have been reliant on people all my life and I just need a chance to completely start fresh and I cannot do this round here or in this country. I need to travel, i need to experience things which I have never experienced. I do not deserve any charity but I am desperate, so very desperate. I am literally begging for any help.

Thank you so much for reading

never any mercy

Posted by jade92 on 2012-03-01 11:58:56

Last year I was mugged and left unconscious because a group of thieves decided they wanted to have my phone. I suffered multiple injuries including a broken cheekbone. I'm glad I'm still here but my phone company werent so helpful and didnt want to help me out. I had an iphone 4 and was paying 35 pounds a month, I still am, after having a month off work after the incident I lost my job and my insurance company would not pay out as I didnt ring to cancel the phone within the right amount of time 48 hours as I was in hospital. I am broke now. I have work in a cafe on just enough for me to get by. Still have no phone and so I am resorting to begging for someone to donate me the money to fund me another one as i have 18 months left on my contract and it was a 400 pound phone it would be an absolute god send. Noone else seems to have any mercy. I would never usually try this but you never know. Thankyou :) God bless anyone who reads this.

Injuries to body; affecting finances...

Posted by NurseInNeed on 2012-02-22 21:58:55

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!!

Need Help Paying My Bills

Posted by Miracles on 2012-02-19 19:58:57

This is the hardest thing that I have ever done in my life asking for money. I wish I knew how I got myself in such a financal mess. I have a disable husband and had to leave my job to take care of him. We have been married 41 years, so that was the only options that I had. I would never put him into a nursing home. So I guess when my paycheck was gone I never adjusted my spending. So I really I caused this problem. I wish I could get a job, but with my husband having Multiple Sclerosis I can't. If you could just give a small amount I would be so thankful. Thank you for taking the time read this.

i hate to have to beg..

Posted by sgk1000 on 2012-02-15 10:58:06

It's killing me to do this but my fiance and I are in debt and out of money.

With the wedding fast approaching we are realizing that we will not have enough money by the day to take our honeymoon or even to finish paying off all of our vendors.

He studies full time and i've been working multiple jobs to support us for years, but it seems to have finally caved in.

Please help give us a positive start to our future together..

Under threat of eviction

Posted by Ether64 on 2012-02-13 11:58:20

Hello,
I am a single mom, with a disabled child. I was hit with a double surprise last month in the loss of 2 of our social security checks. I had intended to pay the past due water bill last month, but this situation threw a monkey wrench into an already precarious situation. According to social security, we lost the checks because my son turned 16. These agencies never pre-warn you, and if they even attempt to notify you, they send multiple conflicting information, which is not clear on what they are doing.
Because the water has been turned off, and the bill finalized, I now have to pay a total of 343 in order to have the service restored. The utilities company contacted my landlord, who has issued a 7 day notice to me because the lease says that I cannot have the utilities turned off for any reason.
I trust God, and I know He will come through for me somehow, because He's never failed me, but I am getting a bit concerned, as I have exhausted all options. God usually moves very strongly when that happens, so when I saw this site, I figured I'd try it, because you never know what direction He will move from.
The local assistance agency says they can see the loss of income that created this emergency, but want me to provide proof of income replacement in order to get the assistance; which I cannot yet do as I am still unemployed and seeking work.
It's amazing to me; the timing of this. After being forced to wait almost an entire year, due to lack of finances; to take my licensing exam and pay for my license to work, I chose to sacrifice a bit on the bill in order to do this, because I cannot work without the license. I did the right thing, and did not break the law in violating that rule, but waited until I could get my license to practice massage therapy. Now, I am facing the loss of our home. Even if I attempt to set up advertising, the arrangement will take more than 7 days to set up the deals and get the clientele in, and I won't get paid until the clientele have redeemed their deals. My license just arrived, and the doctor that was going to hire me, has "changed the direction of his business." So needless to say, my time is limited and I need some immediate help to remedy this situation. I appreciate your time and interest in reading this, and any assistance you can offer. God bless.

Need Help Paying For a Dental Implant for 1 Tooth

Posted by zackxxx1 on 2012-02-09 16:58:49

I am a homeless, honorably discharged, US Army veteran, looking for help replacing a lower back molar tooth that had to be removed due to multiple cusp fractures. A dental implant appears to be the best long term option to restore my chewing ability on this side of the mouth. This procedure is pretty expensive, possibly running in the thousands of dollars, and quite frankly, I don't have the money to pay for this. I am hoping somebody can help me get this procedure done. Thank you.

Please help: Mother is in hospital

Posted by mycry on 2012-02-06 08:58:40

My Mother is in hospital from last 7days with multiple fractures and injuries after sudden accident with a truck.

I don't know whether I am doing this right or wrong. I never thought situation would be like this.

I am NilotPal. I work in a small private firm and earn sufficient to live a happy life with my old parents, my wife and my 2yr old son. I used to spend all I earn to make them happy. My mind never said that someday such accidents may happen and I need huge money for that. I should have kept some money aside to handle such situations.
Seven days back a drunk truck driver hit my mother and ran away. I got some advance from my employer but that was not sufficient.
So after knocking all doors I am begging here.

Kindly somebody help me, please - even a small donation will help me a lot.

Urgently need help

Posted by vlsvls on 2012-02-04 09:58:39

My begging request is serious enough for me to google for help. I am hoping somebody out there will help us.

Our house is presently freezing and I am in dire need of temporary help to get some fuel to keep us warm as well as my precious lil dog. We ran out of fuel and because we have no money to pay the gas company in back fuel, we cannot get any propane. To add inujury to insult, we are also behind on our property and school taxes. We have a house in Michigan that we were renovating by the skin of our teeth so that we can sell it for money, but just yesterday, we received a certified letter with a tax foreclosure on it.The property taxes on that house is behind. We cannot afford to foreclose on this house as it is our ticket to some money to help us with this house. We owe the contractor money for the work he has presently completed. He is now threatened to put a mechanic lien on the house. As you can see, our dire situation needs help as soon as possible.

We got behind in all bills because we ran out of money. My significant other was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 with multiple surgeries and since then, we have been going downhill. Utilizing our savings, selling everything we can possibly see. We live month to month now from social security and disability checks. I have no place else to turn as my own family does not have any money to help me nor does my significant other. Every place we turn to for help with this issue is a dead end. His disability pays the mortgage. We are truly strapped right at the moment. Is there anything you can do to help us out on this very cold day and with our property taxes? I can pay back whatever money is loan because I have a law suit settlement pending for a car accident I was involved in which required my having surgery. I just don’t know where else to turn. Please help me? I am begging. (I can’t get a settlement load because I am on a contingency basis). Our credit scores are not the greatest and that prevents us from getting any type of a loan.

If there is any way underneath the sun someone can come forward and help us, it would be greatly appreciated OR please guide us to a source where we can obtain a loan with the way our credit now stands. I have a judgment (which just recently surfaced) and now I am starting to pay that off at $50.00 per month which is an additional bill I cannot afford.

We have proof of anything I mentioned above.This is not a scam email.

p.s. I have also reached out to the Warren Buffet family foundation for some help per an email I sent and response I received. We are not guaranteed that we will get the help since they receive thousands of letters for help every day.

Looking for work but coming up short

Posted by mhs82 on 2012-01-27 14:58:37

I've been out of work since October of last year, and I have run out of places to turn in order to pay my bills. While I actively send out multiple resumes per day to prospective employers, I ave only had a handful of interviews and no offers as of yet. I am at risk of having my (overdrawn) bank account closed, my electricity shut off, and eviction from my apartment if I am unable to get the money I need in a very short period of time.

Please send whatever can be spared in order to help me get back on track, it would be very much appreciated, and I will send a personalized thank you message to anyone who is willing to assist in this manner.
