Wig for Alopecia Sufferer

Posted by Rosa on 2012-01-24 04:58:35

Hi, Im Rosa. Im 32, I work full time and live at home so that I can take care of my elderly parents. I have 2 jobs, 1 fulltime (as a secretary) and 1 part-time afterhours work cleaning offices. I believe that we are all responsible for taking care of ourselves and our families. Ive never done this before.

I am raising funds for a human hair natural wig specifically made for Alopecia sufferers. Its a specialty product and very expensive ($700-$900 start price). I am going for the graduated chin length bob style as the longer styles are so expensive.

Every dollar will go towards this, and every dollar counts, please dont feel your contribution wont matter. As someone who budgets my wage down to the last $25 dollars each week, every dollar counts.

I suffer from Alopecia which is unexplained hair loss. I have had this condition for 5 years and it has gradually gotten worse. I have cut my hair very short to minimise fallout, and been to countless doctors and tried every drug and product on the market – all without success. In fact I am paying off a $3000 credit card bill which I spent seeing every specialist I could.

I find going bald at my age humiliating and embarrassing. I work fulltime so its important that I look my best, but thats very hard when you have lost over 45% hair mass. Its inevitable that I will be completely bald except for the back zone which I will probably shave to wear the wig.

Please help me if you can. I sincerely appreciated it.

Rosa

I'm 23 and alone...you're nice already

Posted by kaenor on 2011-12-12 22:58:05

Hi everyone. If you're reading this, thank you. Let me say upfront, I'm not asking specifically for money. I'm just going to spill my guts about this hand I was dealt.

I've had a hard life. My mother passed away when I was 12, and my father passed away at 20. He left me a lot of debt and a house to maintain.

The stress of all this has given me problems. I started having panic attacks and was hospitalized for a cardiac arrhythmia. Recently, I developed optic neuritis. I'm working on getting Medicaid to cover some of my costs but right now I'm in debt about #1000.

There is one blessing in my life, a relative who pays my internet and utilities. He also helps me with food. But that's all he can do. He goes without to provide me with that. Otherwise I'd be homeless, hungry, and who knows where.

So I'm blessed to have the basics in life. But there's so many things that I need that I have to beg other people for. My family is...not so supportive. All I have left are aunts and uncles, all except one on my mom's side. My mom's side of the family pretty much abandoned me when she died. They put me though shame and humiliation when I ask for help.

I want a job, but I live in a very rural area. I've applied s o many places up to an hour away but I don't hear anything back. Recently I applied for some state jobs which I'm hoping might come through.

These are the things I need and things I want, so you know what my intentions are.

Need:
Toilet paper.... :( The way I've been getting it now is to go into public restrooms and putting some in my purse. I feel wrong about this. But what can I say, it's a necessity?

Personal items...I won't go into detail but I'm talking about um, feminine ones. I get the Dollar Store brand kind, but even then it's too much. I've had to go without it which is very hard.

Hygiene items...I stopped using soap and shampoo conditioner. I would love to...I feel dirty honestly. But I can't afford anything. I only use deodorant every few days because the bottle is running low and I'm trying to make it last.

House items...I need dish washing soap. I can't afford paper plates and am just washing dishes with hot water now. Sometimes I cant' clean it all the way through that way, but I just have to forget it. I also need laundry detergent. I'm almost out of a huge bottle that I have made last over a year. It was Sun brand from the dollar store, and I loved it. I'm all about generic.

Gas money...My car is an old SUV, and it takes a fair amount of gas. I try to limit when I drive. But it's a necessity since I live alone and in a rural area. I have to drive to run errands, go see the doctor, go to job interviews. I usually beg for this the most cause this is one of the things I can't do without.

Medication...I'm on two heart medications because of my arrhythmia. It's important I take them. I tried taking them twice per day instead of three, and I had horrible palpitations. So this is kind of my priority. As I'm still uninsured, both medications cost about 12 dollars a month.

Okay those are all things that I feel I need. Now, what I "want".

Clothes...I haven't bought new clothes since 2007. That's when my dad got diagnosed with cancer. My shirts have holes in them, so do my jeans. I got them from Goodwill originally most likely, I like to be frugal. The only person I have is made of linen and has a hole so things fall out of it! I've lost weight and I have had my jeans fall down in public. It's bad. I only have one bra and it's way past it's prime. I would love a little money to buy some basic things. Jeans that fit, some cotton T-shirts, a purse. Maybe even something for job interviews? I think part of the reason I get denied is because I show up in jeans and a T and flip flips. But that's all I have.

Beauty stuff...Okay, this stuff is totally not worth your money, I get it. But I just thought I'd list everything. It sucks being a young woman who can't feel pretty. I'm unwashed, my clothes make me feel like a hobo. I see other girls my age in class (I attend college part time thanks to financial aid) looking and smelling beautiful. I mean...

I just want a hair cut. Recently, I hacked about 6 inches off myself with scissors. It's not pretty. I just want a little powder and some lip gloss to not feel so plain. I just want a spritz of perfume so that there's something beautiful in my senses. I daydream about when I used to wear cute clothes, go to a salon. Wear mascara and paint my names. Ahh...But this is just a dream. I don't expect anyone to help me with things like that.

A new laptop/tablet...The one I have now is really old and really slow. Don't expect anyone to get me one. If it happened, I would probably assume I'm dead and in some sort of heavenly afterlife. Then I might pass out from shock.

So this my friends, is my general beg for help. I'm a 23 year old girl without much family. My basics are covered, but that leaves a lot for someone who is broke. I'm actively searching for employment. I've applied from Dr.'s offices to bars. I'm part time in college, and I'm not sure what I want to study yet.

I don't drink, if I had the money for beer I'd buy TP instead. I don't smoke or do any illegal drugs. I'm not a criminal.

I am not someone who wants to just take money. If you are down on your luck too, please don't send me anything. Put it in savings. Give it to some of these people who are about to lose their homes if you must. They're deserving.

If you're apprehensive about giving money but still want to help, you totally can. A package filled with toilet paper, tampons, shampoo...that would be like Christmas morning to me, I swear.

I'm not sure what I'm going to get out of this. Writing this was therapeutic though. If you're on this site, you're already a nice person. I bet 90 percent of the traffic is people who want something, like me. People who go on here to help someone is probably such a rare thing.

Thanks for reading.

Disabled Single Mother of 2 Magnificent Teens in need!

Posted by Singlemominneed on 2011-10-16 18:58:38

I am a disabled Mother of 2 amazing teen daughters. My oldest is a senior and is a wonderful tennis player. The youngest is a sophmore and is in the marching band.
I need around $2000 to help pay for the registration and repairs on my van to get me to and from my Doctors offices. And my daughters to drive to and from their games and appointments.
I just got out of an abusive relationship that I was trapped in for ten years and am starting over from scratch. If I can have a running vehicle so that I can get to and from the doctors I can get my health back and get back to work to support my family properly. Please help me get my life and self esteem back.
Please help!

Mortgage Help

I recently got married and now my wife has been fired. We currently are not receiving any government help, because we grew tired of wasting time in the offices and have no one help us. Now our house payments have been past due 2 month in a row. We will be soon be evicted if we don't find the money to pay the rent and the late charges.

Running Lean & Mean - Yet Need Help to Keep Going!

Posted by ttt333 on 2011-06-28 16:58:46

In a city with a 12-13% unemployment rate & at a age where it can be difficult to be hired in a competitive job market (nope, I don't get any type of unemployment or other benefits), I've started a microbiz providing organizing services to small business, home and mobile offices.

It isn't easy. When money isn't tight, it's non existent. ;) But I do what I need to do to survive and, someday soon, thrive.

Keeping phone and Internet access is critical to my success, plus my laptop is aging rapidly. ANY AMOUNT given helps make & keep me a TAXPAYER. When things turn around, all will be paid forward to charity, either Kiva International or St. Jude Children's Medical Center. Thank you!

help pay bills

Posted by zgsmom94 on 2011-06-22 15:58:23

Please, please help me and my family. My husband is a teacher and his check is eatten up with furlough days. I have looked everywhere for a job (McDonalds.Dairy Queen, Merry Maids). And I can't find anything in my field at all. Im not picky I would clean someone's house, pick up garbage, clean offices, walk dogs, pick up dog poop.....anything, if I could just get a paycheck first. We have had our car break down and I had to use the last weeks grocery money to get a new battery. Please I have 3 kids and I have to feed them. I don't know what my husband would do if he realizes I'm on Here or that I blew it. Please if I could just get a total 150. I know I'm asking a lot but I have asked my kids to sacrifice so much already. And I can't go to my parents because they disowned me 18 years ago. I promise I will come back and repAy to others if I could get help this one time. I am truly desperate. and I am afraid that desperation is turning into depression. Again, Im truly begging. And I know you don't know me but when I promise to come back on here to help others, I will keep my word.

Microbiz needs to keep afloat to survive!

In a city with a 12-13% unemployment rate & at a age where it can be difficult to be hired in a competitive job market, I've started a microbiz providing organizing services to small business, home and mobile offices. I am struggling to keep going until I build a bigger client base.


Keeping phone and Internet access is critical to my success, plus equipment needs to be updated to remain competitive. ANY AMOUNT given helps keep me a TAXPAYER.

So close but yet so far

Posted by neddolars on 2011-03-31 14:58:13

I am a junior psychology major, human development minor attending Howard University. Thus far, school has had its ups and downs. However, I have been able to maintain an acceptable grade point average of 3.46 and a position on the Dean’s Honor Roll. My mother is a struggling single parent of two, living on Unemployment benefits. With the cost of living and rise in the economy, paying my tuition is impossible for her to manage. This financial burden is hampering my abilities to achieve. The thought of having such an outstanding balance in all of my living expenses worries me. With no way of paying these expenses, I think about the possibility that I might have to withdraw from Howard University and go back home. It angers me to know that I am so close to accomplishing my goals and the only thing holding me back is money.
I have been applying for many scholarships, some have been beneficial others not so much. The scholarships that I have received have barely paid for my tuition each semester. Unfortunately I cannot take out a loan because I need a cosigner and my mother is the only one willing to cosign a loan for me. Unfortunately, my mother is not eligible to be a cosigner. I have contacted many different public offices in hopes that they would be able to help with my past due rent and living expenses. However, most of the programs that are offered require the applicants to either have a child or a person over 65 years old in the household. I have tried contacting the provost of my university to see if there is anything that I can do to get extra funding; they suggested work study. However, trying to maintain work study is conflicting with my class schedule. Work study is usually over by 5pm and my classes are also during this time.
With that said, I am seeking sponsorship or any contributions towards my endeavors. If you are unable to contribute, but are aware of other resources that would be of interest, please contact me. I assure you that these contributions are for a good cause. It will allow me to my tenure at Howard University and further my career as a neuropsychologist. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanking You In Advance

I am a junior psychology major, human development minor attending Howard University. Thus far, school has had its ups and downs. However I have been able to maintain an acceptable grade point average of 3.46 and a position on the Deans Honor Roll. I have been honored to be a part of Howard University Swahili Language Flagship program, which allowed me the opportunity to participate in a study abroad trip to Kenya and Tanzania, East Africa. I have also been a committed volunteer to the Capital Area Food Bank, and a encouraging Troop Leader for the Girl Scouts of the Nations Capital.
For as long as I can remember, I have been dedicating myself to giving back to my community. I am writing this letter in hopes that this one time the community will help me. I am a 20 year old African American woman from the inner city of Brooklyn, NY. My mother is a struggling single parent of two, living on Unemployment benefits. With the cost of living and rise in the economy, paying my tuition is impossible for her to manage now. I have tried reaching out to my father; however, instead of committing himself to my life, he preferred the street life.

Please, please, please help me collect USD 22 000 to get my transcription business out of the hurdles. I'm a single mom of four who worked as a secretary for many years and registered a transcription business in 2008. I have many clients but not offices and proper equipment. I am extremely good at and love what I'm doing. My business can be very profitable if I just get proper equipment and an office. I live in Namibia, Africa.

WANT A FRESH FINANICAL START!

Posted by sportdc on 2010-09-08 19:58:58

Hello Friend:
I am writing to request help from the public for financial help. I am college educated and I am in the healthcare field. I am struggling financially to pay back my school loans and I am currently behind on my bills. My mother lives with me but she is on SSI and helps only a little bit. I work as an independent contractor at two offices but I need to find another job to make ends meet which I am currently doing everyday. I don't want to take out any loans because I had filed for bankruptcy in 2007 which eliminated most of my debt but I don't want to be back in the "robbing Peter to pay Paul" mode again. If any of you can contribute $5-$20, that would help a lot. Like I said, I am in the healthcare field and I give back by helping others with their health. If there is someone out there willing to pay off all my school loans, PLEASE let me know. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!
