Medical and other bills piling up

Posted by gshafer80 on 2012-05-17 11:58:40

When my daughter was born in January of 2011 she had to be extracted via a fast emergency c-section. She had been engaged in the birth canal but she disengaged herself and the umbilical cord came out. The doctor was concerned that the cord was strangling her and took my wife to emergency surgery. My daughter survived and is now healthy. My wife developed an infection from the procedure and spent three months with a wound vac and endured two more procedures to try and remove the infection. In the time since I have changed jobs and moved my family back to where I grew up so we could get help with child care for both the baby and her 6 year old half sister from my parents because of the costs of day care. My wife can no longer work. I tried for several months to sell my home. When the opportunity presented itself I moved my family and ceased making the payments on the home I was trying to sell. It is now being foreclosed on. We are covered up with medical bills both from her past before we were married and also from the procedures to stop her infection and also credit card bills that are partially thanks to my ex-wife. After reading through this site I have decided that I guess I am not too proud to ask for help from compassionate people. Please contact me if you have any questions or thoughts on my situation.

Laid off, disabled, losing our home

Posted by layoff on 2012-04-18 16:58:11

My situation is more complicated than I can explain, however I ended up as a single parent despite having been married and never expecting this circumstance. In brief, my husband experienced the onset of severe, debilitating mental illness and made several suicide attempts before we split up and my daughter and I have been alone since the last twenty years. I worked hard and partially succeeded in raising my daughter alone but during the last twenty years I became ill. My husband's family want little to do with us and do not provide us with any support. My daughter is trying to get through post secondary education and I am hoping that the economy will be improving but meanwhile I cannot pay the bills because my hours were cut. My own father is in a nursing home, he has no money to speak of, my mother died last year, and my husband's family will not help us despite their own wealth. We want desperately to become more independent but do not want to rip anyone off. If you are interested in my cause let me know. If everyone who read my message gave only a single dollar, imagine how much good it might do? We want to be able to buy a home so that we can put a stop to these high rent payments we make. A mortgage, based on my work history, would be less expensive. It sounds unreal but we live in Vancouver and want to stay here if possible for work and school. We have been here for a long time. Please let me know if you want to help us make some dreams come true. If you do, then I can provide you with more information to make donations and more details on our lives and how your donations are helping us. I know that we do not live a third world lifestyle but many people are unaware of how quickly homelessness can happen in North America due to lack of family support, which is our problem. Please find it in your heart to help us.
I have health insurance but due to recent precondition problems I am risking losing my insurance getting a necessary though seemingly optional cosmetic tail implant. I was born with a partially emerging tail about 3 three inches long that I can vigorously wag and I have a condition where when ever I am nervous , anxious or anticipating something happening my tail starts to wag fast and hard with a sort of red light going on in my head because my imagination pictures my tiny three inch stub of a tail being a long elegant leopard size implement with a graceful swagger. Since I was born I could not wear ordinary pants. So I went to various plastic surgeons over the years to see what could be done to augment my unfinished limb. The good doctor i found devised a way that takes parts of my buttocks and builds a muscle tail approximately three feet long that will extend my tail enough that I will be able to put an end to that red light in my head that says it does not function. Yes I will end up with a smaller behind but it will definitely be worth it in a trade off that gives me the tail I have always wanted. The doctor estimates that the operations will cost between $478,000 and Three million dollars. Yes I know what you are thinking is this tail worth that much money? Of course. I will be able to swing from trees by my tail with the new power muscle tell that can be built for me. I will have three limbs above my waist. I will feel whole for the first time in my life and I will make medical history as the first human in some 200,000 years to have a tail that can express itself with grace and elegance. If I can't raise the money I swear I am going to join the ranks of the circus freaks and get the money wagging my disgustingly ugly existing tail in public. I know that sounds demeaning but I am still proud of my tail and blessed to have it. I am thinking of getting a couple of monkeys to develop an act to get top billing on the freak show circuit. Planet of the Apes Man and Monkeys would be a good name for the act? You just don't know what it is like having just a stub of a tail when you are so close to having the real thing and swinging it in the trees. Hurry and donate before Obama care has to pay for this.

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!!!
I have chronic inflammation of a very important organ, and also a rare type of skin cancer that has been partially treated. Both of these were diagnosed in the past one year. However, further investigations would be needed with MRI to exclude very serious complications from this cancer. *(if there is a complication, that would almost certainly kill or leave me seriously maimed if not treated early.)

Basic info on me: I come from a former communist country now part of the EU. I went to high school abroad, as I was awarded a scholarship. Recently however, my parents have disowned me and right now I have nowhere to go, nobody to turn to. In my home country I have no insurance. I am in need of serious help, both financial and emotional.

The current cost of all treatments and investigations would amount to around 4000 USD in a proper hospital in an inexpensive country. please consider helping. I can be reached at the following address: frimurernye@gmail.com

debilitating mood disorders

Posted by rockmama on 2012-02-05 14:58:38

I am a single mother of a 3 yr old girl. One who just can't seem to get ahead. Or even even. Bills that are due, some being paid with what little I have are limited to the necessities. I am getting help from my state with food and healthcare and that is wonderful. But here is where my downside comes into play. On 1/28/12, due to (see subject title) I had to quit my job. A job in which I love, in a field that i love, that i still have (outstanding) school loans required for me to be licensed in the field. Hold on now, this does tie together...I quit drinking 3 years ago,(I am past my 20's if that means anything.) I found though, once I quit drinking, that I had been self- medicating for partially debilitating mental illnesses. Though I have been doing my part since quitting the drink (therapy, psychiatry,and just holding on for dear life), I cannot seem to get to where I need/want to be, to be able to continue to provide for my kiddo. My credit is shot, I wasn't approved for a car loan of ANY sort (CARHOP DENIED ME!)and my car is dying. The anxiety I feel every day when I wake up and find that I have to take 10 or so pills to make it through the day, and then still figure out how to pay for my car insurance. And rent and phone bills and electricity blah blah blah, you get the picture. My credit cards (in which I have to use to purchase clothing for myself and my daughter) are maxed. My little one bedroom apartment just doesn't accommodate for myself and my 3 year old. She has no place to play outside, except for a pavement parking lot, all the while trying to shield her from the illegal activities which take place around here. I am in the process of starting to apply for disability, because that is all i know to do for the time being. I will be applying for housing assistance, I gotta get out of this place.
I don't know whom may be out there, and whom may be reading this, I hope at least someone does. What I really hope, is that there may be some helpful, generous, kind and empathetic soul who might be able to help me with this huge anxiety ridden request for help. I have never done anything like this before, for the worst quality I possess is asking for help. Or lack of being able to do so. But, here goes nothin!

Overwhelmed with flood damages and the repair expenses

Posted by ravensrun65 on 2012-01-25 18:58:00

After being away since 1997, I've come back to care for my disabled mother. I myself have degenerative bone and disc disease of the spine. Making it impossible for me to do any of the labor. The building use to be a bar with an apartment upstairs. Due to her disabilities, she lives on the bar level. Years ago they had a porch added, which is partially cantilevered improperly. Someone installed a shower on the bar level, in the process, they cut a main beam rather than get a longer piece of pipe. I'm not able to find out when the unit was installed, but it was long enough ago that now the bar level bathrooms(yes, both mens and ladies rooms are still in there), and the apartment floors are all sloped. If memory serves me, lolly columns should stop/possibly reverse this.
The well is working when it wants to, the water runs, then shuts itself off, anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes later, it comes back on. The furnace had a burned out blower part which I'm paying the bill off, leaving less than $75 cash after covering the expenses of this building each month. And the plumber said it would be close to $200 just to start fixing the well issue. Not even knowing if it is the pump or not.
The weather here is too much for my body without access to hot water therapy. I don't know how long it will be before I can no longer handle the pain in these temps. I am rather desperate for any help at all. I'm 46, single, and have no one to help me without paying hefty fee's. This building is in dire need of repairs. If anyone could please find it in their heart to help two women that have no one to lend a hand...PLEASE HELP?
Thank you for reading and have an outstanding day!

Help for Young Working Student and Widowed Father

Posted by kdpoulos on 2012-01-22 10:58:43

Hello,

I am 26 years old and currently working full time and over time when available. I am also finishing up a degree. I live with my widowed father who is partially deaf and cannot work. We live in an old trailer that needs several repairs. Despite my working, several unexpected events have made our financial situation very dire and any assistance that can be given will be very much appreciated.

Thank you for your time and charity.

Want to attend my friend's wedding..

Posted by allibeech on 2012-01-18 09:58:28

Hi, and thanks for reading my post. I am a mid-thirties guy doing my best to find a long term and stable job after a layoff. while that is obviously a priority, I am also trying to save enough money to attend a very close female friend's wedding in August.
I am in western Illinois, and my friend and her fiance live in eastern California, near Lake Tahoe. Since she relocated there 10 years ago with her then-husband, we have not been able to see each other (although we keep in frequent contact). She and her fiance delayed the wedding partially in hopes to give me enough time to save enough money to travel there and be part of the experience.
My hope is to fly out and spend a few days..preferably a week..but if it came down to it I would take Amtrak or Greyhound. Whatever it took to get there.
I would greatly appreciate any help you could give. This girl is like a sister to me, and having gotten to know her fiance through skype and the phone, he's a great guy as well. Thanks for your time and any donation you may give. God Bless

Proud Disabled man begging for his life.

Posted by jackiez123 on 2012-01-16 19:58:26

Hello, my name is John, I am 52 yrs old partially disabled man who is at the end of my rope. Once upon a time I was pretty established yet psychiatric issues have plagued me my whole life. I have just completed another 20 day treatment which makes 4 this yr for major severe chronic depression and social phobias / anxiety along with suicidal thoughts and plans. I am a recovering alcoholic 24 yrs now and thats all I have left, being sober. Six yrs ago I was diagnosed with Lymes arthritis, a rare one along with fibro mialgia symptoms. It has now been diagnosed as Rheumatoid arthritis, my medications for meds alone are over 1.200.00 a month which the state is paying, but the ins will run out soon. The ins co will not pay for an operation I need on my back. I am in severe chronic pain, emotional, physical, mental, all day every day and I am close to my end. For the past 8 yrs I owned a small garden center, and I cannot afford to re open this spring for we had a terrible yr with 2 storms wiping us out and the economy. I owe vendors who are taking me to court, owe sales tax, and am just doomed it seems. Before I was a alcohol and drug couselor, and a good one at that and saved hundreds of lives. After 16 yrs I burned out and had a breakdown. I now live with my mother temp, I cannot find work and feel like such a burden and a loser. She is such a love, the only thing holding me back from harming myself is her. Four weeks ago, my 32 yr old nephew and my beloved dog passed away. I raised my nephew like my son and I have no children, I am grieving terribly. I have a very hard time asking for help much less begging or pand handling. Everything is crashing down on me and I am single, alone and suffering . I am a good man that some how didnt make it in life.Every day I fight depression and suicidal thoughts, I am sceduled for elctric shock therapy in 2 weeks for severe depression, have never known what it feels like not to be depressed. I look back when there were days I'd pay for a strangers meals, sponsored children and animals. Is it really true that nice guys end up last? Anything would help, thanks for listening.I have no money for a paypal account nor have a checking account, my number is 203-264-8907 Love and light,
John

Many struggles

Posted by Closemyhearteyes on 2011-12-03 21:58:05

I'm asking for help in the general debt relief area. I live with 3 other roommates and one is pregnant and I'm the only one with a vehicle so I've been struggling trying to make sure I don't End up homeless because my roommates got fired and couldn't pay rent because they didn't have rides. Our weekly pay range from 70 dollars up to 250. I NEED to get out of this situation! I live in an apartment complex where my vehicle was vandalized and hit and run overnight. I can't get back into school because I can't catch up on my bills enough to save for school. I'm only 2 classes away from getting an associates in general business management, it's sad. I'm 25 and almost can't make a 200 dollar car note and 200 dollar rent?! I have 2 credit cards that add up to be 3,300 dollars and I've even had to be late to keep a roof over my head. I'm also hard of hearing (completely deaf in my left ear and partially deaf in my right) and my job is very loud and isn't helping that situation. I had financial aid for college but due to my move, I failed 2 classes and since I couldn't physically be at the school to drop my classes I am now on financial aid probation. My mother is going through a tough divorce where the guy is taking everything away from her... Even her home of 15 yrs (MY HOME) has to be sold because she only makes 25,000 a year and can't afford a 900 dollar mortgage (used to be 600 until her ex came along making alot of money). My grandmother is now helping her and she's going on 84... She shouldn't be having to deal with taking care of my mom and younger sisters and I'd like to be there but I CAN'T! Please, anything will help. As soon as I get caught up and able to save the 600 dollars I need for my classes I want to start putting money into my grandmothers account to help her and my family. Thank you ahead of time. Oh and also I'm quite tired of eating beans and cornbread and having to wash my clothes in the bath tub.
It all started 5 years ago on June 17, 2006. . .a day I will remember for the rest of my life. It was the day before Fathers Day and we were driving with our 14 month old son to his grandmothers house when and SUV ran a stop sign slamming into us causing our vehicle to roll landing upside down. They say my fiance (my sons father) was partially ejected and killed instantly.

He didn't have life insurance, and since we were only engaged, there were no survivors benefits and so it was just me, my 14 month old, two dogs, and an old house built in 1927 and a laundry list of repairs that needed to be done.

After my fiance died, I think a part of me just shut down. There was so much to deal with. . .working full time, being a single parent with no support. All my family lives 6 hours away, and my fiances family never wanted anything to do with us and after the accident all communication stopped and I was alone.

So, I shut the doors to the upstairs of our two bedroom Cape Cod, and made my bed on the Living Room couch so that I could rock my son in his bouncy chair everytime he woke at night. . .on average 4 times a night.

I did the best I could over the years. During all this my Dad was a huge emotional support for me. We talked every day, he encouraged me to stay strong and I did the same for him (he was diagnosed with milodisplastic syndrome in 2005)his blood transfusions really took a toll on him and his physical weakness really depressed him. I know he worried about me alot because I would always call him for advise on how to fix things or ask him questions about car stuff. He was my rock and he died October 4, 2008 from complications with pneumonia. He was buried on his birthday October 8 when he would have been 56.

His death is still hard to handle. My rock my best friend and advisor was gone and now I realized I was truly alone. Not only did I not have anyone to help me with my son, or with the house or the car, but now I didn't have anyone I could really talk to that could just listen and be my guide.

All this happened so suddenly. My now 3 year old son and I stayed up North for a week after my Fathers death. There was a lot of planning and funeral arrangements to be made that during the midst of all this, 6 hours away in my little Cape Cod were the two dogs. . .Joe, a shepard and chow mix, and Rex, a shepard and Rotti mix left to their own devices. All I could do was pray that the damage wouldn't be too terrible.

I tried calling a neighbor to check on the dogs, but in our unexplained absence the dogs became extremely protective of the house and wouldn't let anyone it.

When we finally came home, there was definately a mess. I had to rip up all the carpet by myself the stench was horrible and the dust and dirt under the padding from 10 year old carpet caused more than one sinus infection. After a month I had all the carpet ripped up and have not been able to replace it.

After working and saving and with help from my Mom, in 2009 I was able to hire a Contractor that had been highly recommended to me by a friend of mine. He raved about how great they were and what a good job they did for him. We had a contract for about $19,000. This was to replace all the windows, replace the kitchen cabinets, new countertop, appliances, paint, everything the house needed after being neglected for over 10 years. So they came and painted and left. Six months later they came back with 5 of the 13 windows, installed the windows, but left the casements on the inside open and torn leaving exposed the Lead Paint and the original wood framing. Then in August 2009, they had the kitchen cabinets delivered to my house and they were stored outside on the porch. I called and called to find out when they would be put in, and no response. They stayed outside through the Fall and through the winter when we got three feet of snow and I called and begged and sent text messages and one day their phone number was disconnected. Then in June 2010 they called me!! They would come install the cabinets. So they came and tore out the stove and the kitchen sink and installed the cabinets and put a slab on granite down so I could have a work area and said they would be back with the stove and dishwasher and sink. They never came back. So I had kitchen cabinets and no stove, no sink, no dishwasher. Then in July, Rex, the Rotti Shepard mix got really sick. The vet said he was starting kidney failure. They kept him and did IV treatment and got his kidneys functioning and they said he need a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice. I had no stove. I tried calling the contractors I yelled, I begged, I sent text messages and finally out of desparation I went and bought the cheapest stove I could just to be able to boil water for my dog.

The dog survived, but his survival was short lived. In October 2010 on the anniversary of my Fathers death, I had to put the dog to sleep. He was suffering from the samething my father had. He couldn't produce red blood cells anymore and would have to live off of blood transfusions. One of the hardest choices I've ever made.

Now here we are in 2011. Memorial Day I almost lost my now 6 year old son in a near drowning incident at a friends pool. Thank God the husband knew CPR and was able to revive him. He stayed overnight in ICU for monitoring but he is now a happy healthy 1st grader.

Me. . .I'm barely keeping it together. I can't afford to take care of my home. The carpet was never replaced and there is a horrible draft in the Winter and the Lead Paint is still exposed. The upstairs windows are leaking and there are water spots on the ceiling. There is a 4" crack in the basement foundation wall that goes all the way down the wall and across the basement floor to the other side of the house. I was told that the footing is slipping and that it was only a matter of time before the house caved. The gutters are falling off the house from age and the deck rails are falling off. I fear for our safety, but mostly, I'm afraid for my son. I want to give him a safe and healthy environment, but I need help.

Please, if there is anyone out there that can help us, I would be eternally grateful. In the meantime, I will keep praying and belive that everything happens for a reason.

I need to hear & see better! In Debt. Taking Classes.

Hi, I am a former musical director who lost his full-time job due to younger generation moving in to replace me. I am 55 years old, in good shape and currently enrolled and have done very well in Voice Acting/Multi-Media/Film classes which are very expensive trade school type intense studies.

I am about half-way through the courses I need to launch my new career as a Multi-Media voice/music/acting/film/producer/director/advertiser. This will entail building a home studio, installing equipment and website/marketing costs. I am also playing in two bands and teaching guitar lessons trying to make up the lost income.

My motivation to ask for help financially is due to my hearing aids which are now very outdated. My right hearing aid has been repaired several times and no longer functions properly, I cannot use it to hear conversation. My left aid works but doesn't have the power I need to listen in class and hear what I need to excel. I use an outboard listening device right now but it is horrible quality. I am essentially rendered partially deaf because I cannot afford new hearing aids.

Our personal debt has been managed by my Wife's job but we cannot afford anymore credit card debt. What we bring in pays the bills, there's no more room for new hearing aids which cost $6500.00 for the quality I need. The top of the line aids are needed because of my new career, voice acting in a quiet studio, teaching guitar, live music performance, front of camera work. Contacting clients by phone and computer. All require a wide range of hearing.

My eyesight is now deteriorated where reading glasses don't handle my needs. I need either contacts or Lasik to go from reading copy, to front of camera to intense computer work.

I can offer, as a gift for your donation of $500 or more, a recording of a special instrumental song performed on my acoustic guitar. I can also offer voice-over work, custom made songs for your business for a generous donation.

I speak and write well. I just need help to hear and see better so I can continue to carry on toward my career goals. However, if you have the financial ability to truly help me, getting completely out of debt and purchasing the ear and eye assistance I need would cost about $25,000.

Seems like a lot but every penny helps and that would launch me into a great new career and take the pressure off my hard-working wife. I have a 15 year old Daughter and a 19 year old Son, both of whom I will hire to work for me, they are gifted and creative kids. Eventually, I will hire some of my fellow students for ad work, voice overs etc. This isn't just for me, it will benefit many.

Ask questions, I have nothing to hide except the fact I am "begging" online. I do not consider this begging however, since I am offering something in return to generous donations and I will benefit Society in general.

Thank you for reading, "my story". I hope to hear from you soon.

22 yr old w/ Skin Cancer - medical bills $$$

Posted by needhelp16 on 2011-07-13 20:58:46

Hi, (Audrarodale@yahoo.com)

My name is Audra and I am 22 years old. I live in NC and the doctor just found skin cancer on my scalp. They had to shave part of my head and remove the cancer. Luckily for me it was basal cell carcinoma, which of the 3 types of skin cancer it's the least harmful one to get. Of course I was upset, and my ego hurt from missing my hair, but I cannot afford insurance and I have to pay the medical bills out of pocket. It is hard for me to ask others for money because I've always taken pride in working for what I have. My dad is the only living parent I had and he cannot afford to help me right now because he lost his job. Any help, if possible, would be appreciated.

I would love to follow up with any of you kind-hearted people and can send you pictures of my partially shaved head if you really want. You can see the lesion - but I do look bad with half my hair missing. Audrarodale@yahoo.com

Need assistance

Posted by mmohio on 2011-03-22 09:58:18

Thank you for your time. Hello, I am 22 years old right now i am unemployed. I am Married to a beautiful young lady whom I love with all of my heart, that is 9months pregnant. but right now I feel like an incompetent husband, and i dont want to be a dead beat dad.
I started working for a local company where i would have been working 40hrs a week plus voluntary weekend overtime. after about a week working there My foreman asked me to work thie upcoming saturday. I had to decline due to the fact I was schedualed to minister at a neighboring county's Juvenile center. When I told him that i already had previous plans and let him know it was an every other weekend arrangment he replied to me " You can either Keep your Job or go off and Preach" Still I felt my ministry was more important. Then I went back to apologize to him to let him know i would be available the next weekend he told me that I shouldnt make plans like this because to work in this company you had to work weekends. When I told him the HR hired me with the understanding weekends were voluntary he said she should not have told me that and it wasnt true and the schedual was about to be changed to 7 days a week mandatory! The following day i met with the HR and she in a kind way told me that the information she gave me was partially correct. I in return told her (in a christian manner) that i had to respectfully give a resignation because there is no way i could work every weekend I was already only seeing my wife 1hr a day if that. I figured i could have another job in about 3 weeks and we could live off of the little bit of money for the month! now 2 months later i live with my parents in a 3 bedroom trailer. This is not the situation i want to bring my baby boy into! Right now my wife and I are taking a financial course yet have no money to manage! I am in debt up to my eyeballs and m y parents are just as stripped. I am humbly asking for someone to please help me! I promise i will pay my tithes and offering 1st. You could be an answer to my prayer. Thank you and GOD BLESS!

broke, no job, no money left, and I have a newborn baby -- HELP!

I have not worked in three years. I have a newborn, no job, I owe the world, and I'm losing my home. I have an MBA and I'd love to have a full-time job to pay the bills, but I can't get hired. Please help me. I'm 53, partially disabled, and my car is on its last legs. I have a newborn that I can't feed. My family has exhausted their resources trying to help me. I'm very scared, and I've never been this broke before, nor have I ever had to beg for money. If anyone reading this has sympathy for my plight, please help me! barryw1956@gmail.com
