Rain Tags

Training at work going well but need a car for further training and husband's health is getting worse every day. Sugar is staying over 660 and blood pressure is rising without that medication also. Now is at 220/190. Don't know what I am going to do. Had to walk to store 3 times the other day to get groceries and, in Florida, it is getting hotter all of the time. Not to mention the rain now too. I really hate to ask anyone for help or "beg" but I really,really need help getting a car.

I been thinking back on how I got so alone in this world. I was in a couple of abusive relationships where what few friends I had drifted away. I have always been shy so making friends hasn't always been easy for me. I had a couple close friends but they are long gone from my life now. The last couple of relationships, my boyfriend was my best friend but they weren't much of a friend or boyfriend but I stayed in both way too long because it was all I had. Both were so abusive I have no self esteem left. Then to top it off, for the past couple of years depression has caused me to eat way too much. I work part time so very little money, eat on the cheap, and without a car, I just haven't gone anywhere. I just sit at home. To tell you the truth, I am really ashamed of the way I look and people can be SO mean when you are big. About a month ago, I stepped on a scale at Publix and found I weigh 293 lbs. For the past month I have been reaccessing my life and I have already lost 23lbs. Out walking more and beginning to thaw my heart out a bit. Unfortunately with this thaw, I am finding there is so much pain, sadness, shame, and loneliness. I guess the food was covering all of that up. Today I was actually on links about depression then on to crisis and it led me to this site. I was just thinking about picking up and moving to a new area, anything to get me out of this rut. Unfortunately the weight and loneliness I will take with me anywhere I go. So I thought I would give this a try. Honesty, I am not a downer. I was always known to have a great sense of humor, was trying to learn German, and took off on adventures at the drop of a hat. I love to picnic so much, I actually spread a blanket out on the livingroom floor and have floor picnics. I loved to walk in the rain. I usta love hiking and being outside. I was a good friend too. I lost her somehow but am trying to get her back :) I know there are chat things but I am older (49) and I never chatted. I don't know much about twitter but I do get texts from Blake Shelton on twitter because I love his sense of humor (warped and a little naughty like mine)Anyway, I didn't mean for this to be a book, just reaching out to see if anyone is there...

Greetings,

My name is Stephanie. Following the death of both my parents in a car accident 5 years ago August my health has been in a steady decline. I suffer from neurological issues that will soon have me in a wheelchair, and advanced COPD that means I have to have Oxygen continuously. Yesterday I had to go the doctors in 85 degree heat without any air conditioning in my van. By the time I got to the medical center and tried to find this new doctors location I ended up collapsing twice between the walking and breathing. I weigh 83 pounds at 5'5" and I can't carry the oxygen with me when I have to exit the vehicle. Ultimately I ended up in the emergency room.

I live with my daughter and grandson of 6 years. My grandson was in the car when my parents were killed and suffered a major brain injury at 13 months. I'm happy to report though that after months of hospitalization he is right as rain and is mad at me currently ;o) because I'm on my computer which he adores playing with. My daughter suffers from PTSD since the accident my parents were killed in. She cannot drive without someone in the car and she was going to go with me yesterday but the heat was so bad that we were concerned about Gavin in the back in my black 1994 Ford Astro van. It was just way too hot for him and with her PTSD we HAVE to go through town to get anywhere or she will lose it so there would not have been any steady air flow.

It's been a long 5 years. My parents and I jointly owned a duplex. Their deaths were the beginning of the most miserable time of my life. When I divorced it was jointly decided that it would better if I lived in the upstairs apartment so they could be there for the kids while I worked. Over 16 years we became so close that their deaths nearly destroyed me. I paid for the last 15 years on the note of the house, my buy in and we all lived there incredibly content and happy. My parents were my best friends.

After their deaths during the mortgage meltdown, credit locks, and the economic fallout my career of 16 years was one of the first to go. I worked in the non-profit sector designing programming for inner-city communities with a specific focus on youth. So 8 months after their deaths the funding streams I used for the programming dried up and a job I loved disappeared.

Life insurance was enough to cover their debt with a little left over because they didn't carry much but in the end I lost my home of 16 years to the insurance company that covered my daughters son through work when they filed a $ 90,000.00 lien against my home. So 7 months after losing my job I also lost a home I loved. So I experienced 3 deaths within the span of a little over a year.

Because I was unemployed so long and had to use my cards to keep the lights on so to speak my credit is not good. So I can't borrow the funds or even charge a repair for the car.

I can no longer go to doctors visits alone. I'm too weak to walk very far without help and I can't carry the oxygen canister on my own. So I need my daughter for these visits.

Like anyone with severe health issues I'm buried in bills but what I really need help on is funds that will me to fix the air conditioning in my van which despite it's age runs like a champ. I have a physicians assistant who comes into my home to work with my but getting to the specialists has become real concern.

My daughter even with her PTSD has reached a point where she doesn't want me going alone. I was supposed to call her when I reached the doctors the other day when I collapsed the 2nd time and they took me to the specialists office I asked the receptionist to call my daughter. She didn't and she left my daughter terrified that something horrible had happened to me. I don't carry a cell I can't afford one. My daughter was getting better about both driving and me driving myself; because of this receptionist my daughter has now had a huge set back. I have to see that doctor again next week and I can't take them without air conditioning so what I'm going to have to do is make sure I find someone that sit with my daughter while I'm gone to help keep her anxiety level low. I don't have any choice I have to get there. I won't have anyone to carry my oxygen but I'm hoping I can in there.

Anything you can do would be greatly appreciated. I am more than happy to pay it forward as soon as I can. I have been a lifelong contributor to various causes and I know people are in dire straights right now. We all need help in one form or another. I would never ask if I could do this myself. Please forgive me.

Hi, I wonder if my previous posts have been just too long for others to read. My car has failed me again today, this time the air conditioner has stopped working :(. It was only a few weeks ago that I had to replace the battery, before that the tyres and before that the exhaust fell out of the engine and had to be welded back on. I am at a loss for what to do. I live in the Northern Territory of Australia and humidity peaks about 70% most days. It is extremely hot and humid. I am by myself with 3 kids, the youngest is just 1. He was wet all over when I took him out his car seat earlier. I am so sad and I don't know what else to do :(. Honestly we fell on hard times a year ago when my marriage broke down. I wish so much that I had more money to repair the car. It worries me a lot as it seems to be one thing after another :(. Along with the shocks and A/C that now needs replacing all the other expenses have cost in the hundreds. If you are reading my plea right now please find it in your heart to give me a helping hand. I will be forever grateful for anything, honestly.

Thank you & may God's blessings rain upon you.

We are trying to sell our house. We live in a flood plain and have flooded twice. The market of course sucks. We owe about 94K on our houre, but currently have it listed at 91,500. If we get that amount we're still going to need about 9K at closing. Taxes are coming back and we only have about 4K. We seriously need to get out of this house. Please help! I'm tired of being scared everytime there is a big rain storm. I can't go through another flood. Anything would be greatly appreciated!

Hello. I am newly (8 weeks ago) single mother of 2 boys (ages 3, 6) and I have recently left my abusive husband. I remained in the relationship for 7 years and am have just now gotten the courage and willpower to leave. The relationship and the last beating before I left (by far the worst) left me 75 percent unable to see in my right eye.This has resulted in us being homeless with no financial help or backing.
I no longer qualify for TANF (WELFARE) and all I get is food stamps once a month. We are currently residing in a homeless shelter in downtown St. Louis where we have to leave every morning at 6 am (rain, snow, or shine). I go to the library with my children daily and we read together just to get out of the cold. I am happy to be free from years of abuse, but at the same time I am severely depressed because of my living and financial situation.
My wish is to get funds for one month at a studio extended stay hotel, funds for interview clothes (I have gotten several interviews and then when I go, they HR reps are immediately turned off by my unkempt, worn and inappropriate so called interview attire), funds for a bus pass to get to more interviews (I walk for now), and funds for minor toiletries. I know that with my resume and decent interview attire that I can get a decent full time job within one month's time.
It would help so much toward my short term goal, which is to attain full time stable employment and provide a stable and healthy living situation for my two boys. Thanks so much in advance and I appreciate all help and donations, no matter how big or small. Feel free to send all donations to paypal account name charlyfran2008@hotmail.com

I am disbabled and my fiance is in school for automechanics. He needs $156.00 a month until October 2012 for tuition to stay in school. He walks to school in the rain and has an 86 grade point average. Please help,God Bless and anything you could do would help us. He lives at a shelter in Austin TX and tries very hard with school. He goes to school 4 days a week for 5 hours a day and studies the rest of the time. We want to make a new start when he graduates and so we can get on our feet because he will be making a good living. Please if you could find it in your heart to help us. Thank you very much.

Gratitude to all who are on this site!
In 2009 doctors and many others witnessed tiny fluorescent white little puff balls, I call them (They are actually rice grain shaped), emerging spontaneously from my skin by the hundreds,maybe thousands. I have been ill most of my life on and off, for at least 15 years with migraines 25 or more out of 30 days much of spring through fall. When the disease(es) is/are fully active, it is sheer unending torture...
Mild examples are that I got stung by a bee, and was relieved to see it was bee, not the disease..the other day for about 5 minutes, it felt like I had a pinl sticking into my back, antibiotic final stopped it.the itching, stinging, is unreal, intense . I have kept it subdued through alternative cures a.d mixes after anti fungal with antibiotic, yet it still persists, and spring and summer heat make it overactive.
It seems to come with this rustcolored mold that is now everywhere in the little camper I am living in. This rust colored mold also grows kn and in me, creating ...well, ill leave out all the gorey detsils..My family helped me to buy this new, in hopes living in good clean air would help. We looked at the mold under a microscope, and like the fibers that come out ogle, it is fibrous, not mold- like
To add to this, we looked at a slide I made of the fiber in 2009, and one of the fibers turned into a slug like thing while in storage on the microscope, and there is this strange black ink- like looking circle around it all.
my doctors are at a loss, as they don't know of any test to identify this. The fibers just came back as unidentified plant material. It is strange to see them emerge..it just blips right out of the skin in less than a second.
because my camper is now covered in this, no matter how much I clean, every rain the camper gets covered.
Whatever this organism had done to my body, I itch, well all the time. it gets worse when I touch people or old books, I cannot sit on fabric, I have to bring plastic with me wherever I go..
Even my bed is covered in plastic
This organism fights other organisms, even acidophilus!
This and my severe migraines led to finally sucumbing to the acceptance of needing help, which came immediately through disability.o
My goal now is to identify this organism(or group of organisms. I have to get the camper de- termed. I am so sensitive, even staying in people's homes is out of the question now.
I basically require a simple box,ee batbroomand kitchen with no carpete amper drapes, furnishings, unless all 3, etc. And living in Los Angeles, only h budget, the camper is the best solution right now. Help getting me out of this camper, help paying the cost of a company that will remove the mold/ organism, and help with paying for tests to identify this are needed most any experts in any of these areas, I guess if you donate a penny and leave your contact information through PayPal, I would be so grateful!
i' m seeing the infectious disease doctor in January...again though, they don't test, it seems for what I have
So my requests.
if there are any mycologists,, geneticists, mold remediation specialists, (to get my camper less toxic)
And any funds to send out samples to be tested (one place, parasite testing.com calls this neurocutaneous syndrome..and may be able to identify.. it just a swab test is $120!)
And I need to get myself into a place that is healthy for me...eventually it will either be a new camper or studio rented somewhere. For now, until get the mold out of this camper, I will not sell it.
So this is a tidbit of my story...I was a healer, then got too sick! I now channel some of that into healing art
Any help is appreciated! I am much toover- sensitive for any direct healing, I do appreciate intent/prayers out to the grater energy, beyond even consciousness that we are all a part of. I must reflect back any direct energy channeled through, and specifically deny permission for this( learned the hard way)
Thank you for taking the time to read this, for being at this site in the first place
May the world bring to you all you truly feel in your heart right for you!
Namaste
Laura
PS. My computer has been down, and writing this on a cell phone. Much as i tried to go back, I could not correct the typos!

Hi im a single mother supporting two boys one disabled on my own without family support due to the fact that my parents are no longer here. My Car broke down im in desperate need of a new one and eventhough im working hard all my money gets sunk into my sons therepy ect. so please if there is anything anyone can do to help so my babies are not out in the rain with my everywhere I would appriciate it beyond belief thank you so much for taking your time to read

First off,let me start off by saying i hate doing this. I dont like asking family for money,much less complete strangers,but i have reached my breaking point and i feel as if there is no where else to turn. Me and my husband have always finacially struggled. He is a logger, its what he has always known,but between the rain and the snow and the broke down equipment,he doesnt get to work very much. Up until about 4 months ago,we were living with my parents,including thier home we have lived in 11 different homes and 3 different states in the last 3 years. We always have to follow the work. We have finally found a decent home in our home state,and finally felt as if we were going to be alright. Unfortuantly,that is not the case,as it never is. In the past few month,he has had to miss a ton of work due to weather and crappy equipment,getting us behind on bills we had just recently caught up on. This includes the rent,and his child support. He has always tried to do right by his children,but when he gets behind,his childrens mother throws the book at him. She has had him served for another court date and is threating to not let him see his children anymore,as if she lets him see them regulary anyways. She has money and had no problem with hiring a attorney. We desperatly need money to hire our own. Everytime we have had to go to court he has been ordered to pay amounts that there is no way he could afford. We just need help right now,and i know that there are plenty more deserving people than us out there. And if their is no one willing,i completly understand. But if their is someone,you would be helping us out so much because my husband wants to see and care for his children. Thank you for taking the time to read this and God bless.

Hello, my family and I are in desperate need of financial assistance. We have been going through a storm of rain these past couple of months. I've always heard the saying when it rains it pours, but never ever thought it could get this bad or continue on this long.It started with my husband having a tumor in his throat, the next week I was told I was over paid financial aid and had to pay back a very substantial amount of money. Week after that our daughter shattered her elbow, I stepped on a nail and had to go to the ER, following week on a trip to a Dr.s appointment out of town our vehicle broke down nearly 200 miles away, had to have it towed at 4 dollars per mile. And they charged us an arm and a leg for a simple simple repair. My husband never got to his appointment. Medical expenses are just breaking us this year, we do not have medicaid and everytime we see a dr we have to pay a copayment that is ridiculous. Especially ER and specialist visits. Our bank account was also hacked into by someone who had our checking account number, so our account was locked. During that time several checks that had been sent out to pay bills came back NSF. So things keep adding up and adding up. 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy, which was a complete shock because my tubes are tied! The medical care for this treatment is very expensive. It just seems as soon as we catch up or get paid, everything is gone plus we are still in the negative. We just cant catch a break. We are extremely faithful people...but at the moment I just can't seem to understand why this keeps happening? Why can't we catch a break. These are only the major things that have been happening...there are so many in betweens. Now we are about 1500 to 2000 dollars behind. This all started in June and every month we say to ourselves it will be better next month and so on and so on. Well, so far it seems as if we are on a downward spiral. We are always the couple who people can come to for help, the couple who seeks out those in need and offers our help. Whether it be financial or spiritual or just a helping hand. And now, we are going through the roughest times we have ever had to endure, and unfortunately we have no one to help us in this time of hardship. We are grateful for all that we have and know that we are beyond blessed, sadly though you cannot feed and house a family when you have absolutely no money. I know that things could be worse. We just need a little help getting back on our feet. Just to catch up. Once we can catch up we will be back in business and will definitely pay it forward. Sorry for the long vent, and I am so ashamed of having to post this on here. There is just no other options, we have exhausted everything we have. If there is any possible way you may be able to help us, we would appreciate it beyond measure. Thank you for your time.

There has not been any rain here since May. The pastures are dried up and I had to buy hay for the mares. I usually don't have to earmark hay money until November. The two mares are too old to sell and my six chickens haven't laid an egg since June. It's just too hot. I would appreciate any help to pay the water bill and assist feed. Thank you for helping, my farm is very small and I only have a part-time job that doesn't pay much, but is close to home.

I am a 38 year old single mom of a 3 year old boy. The last year has been super difficult for us, and it seems like the rain is never going to stop. I have been off work on disability since June 26, 2010, due to heart problems. I was born with a heart defect and had to have open heart surger at 3 1/2 years old. Last year, scar tissue from the surgery began causing serious heart issues. During the course of figuring out what excactly was wrong with my heart, I had 2 different two day trips to the hospital, 3 emergency room visits, numerous doctor appointments, copays, prescriptions, changed prescriptions etc that have costed several hundred dollars in copays (almost $1000). In addition to that, due to paperwork problems at work, my disability was delayed by almost three months, so I fell behind on my rent and utilities.

During the time I had no income, I borrowed $3000 from my Mother to pay my rent and bills. Unfortunately, due to a loss of income herself, she is no longer able to help me. I also ended up borrowing $400 from my Grandparents to repair the head gasket on my only vehicle. I ended up moving to a cheaper place because the utilities were included and after living there 3 months, the owner of the house decided not to pay the utilities and let the power get shut off and refused to have them turned back on, even though I have sleep apnea and have to use a CPAP machine at night. I had a cardiac ablation done on March 25, 2011. The power was turned off 3 days later, on March 28th. It has been a full month and the power is still off. I cannot turn the utilities on in my name because there are two houses on the same meter, so if I got the utilities in my name, I would have to pay for both houses.

I found another place to move to, but spent hundreds of dollars in gas, moving truck rental fees, storage unit fees and moving help. On one of my moving trips, the drive line snapped on my Ford Explorer. I had to pay $250 to get it repaired. Eight days later the altenator went out and I had to get that replaced, which cost me $175. The mechanic told me that my battery was also bad, so I had to pay another $45 for a new battery.

On top of that, the house that I am moving out of was broken into yesterday and several items were stolen. I am a Certified Massage Therapist and my Massage Chair was stolen, along with a weedeater, my mothers Hoover carpet cleaner, my vacuum cleaner, my kodak printer, various household goods, about 35 old nintendo games, a bunch of art supplies for my son and almost all of my son's toys were stolen. 3 large moving boxes full of toys were taken out of his room. I have been working on moving all month long, but I had no one to help me and after just having surgery I was only able to do so much every day. I still have more to move this weekend.

I am sorry this is so long, I am just don't know where else to go. The kicker is, I have renter's insurance, but my work stopped paying the premiums 3 months ago and I was only notified on Wednesday, the 27th of April. So, since my premiums haven't been paid, I am not covered. I am looking to get some help so I can pay back my Grandparents, pay back my Mom and replace my sons toys and my massage chair. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

First off,I am not an addict.I do not drink,smoke,or do any drugs.I am ablebodied and willing to work(desperate for it,in fact!)but despite all my efforts I have not been able to work for 2 and a half years.I sleep under a freeway bridge.I find my food in trash cans.I am typing this on a computer I use at the library.Despite knowing how to survive with no money all I want is to work again and have an actual life like i used to.

Let me explain.In 2008 my marriage broke up and with no reason to stay where I was,I moved to Las Vegas in the hopes of finding a job with the casino industry.The week I did so my out of state ID expired and it took me 2 YEARS to get Social Services to help me get my birth certificate!One complication after another delayed it and until I produced that I could not legally work anywhere!No one would hire me.

Finally I got the birth certificate and my ID and made it to my final destination,my old hometown of Anaheim CA,only to find out the job market is even worse here than it was in Vegas.Here I now finally have the documentation but I can't find a job!

I am limited in what I can do because I do not drive(I can but have never had a license or my own vehicle;even when I was working I never needed it!)nor can I commute.No bus money means I can only apply to places I can physically get to!

I do not have good clothes or shoes for interviews nor do I have a phone number that a prospective employer can reach me at so if I don't get hired in the interview I don't get hired.

I don't need a big job.I'm happy with staying at my camp.I just need something small,part time so I can afford to go back to college and finish my degree.I have a scholarship but until I get SOME income I can't even afford to register(I need a local ID to do even that!)

I am deeply ashamed of my situation.I don't want to beg in the streets and I use every cent to try and keep myself and my clothes as presentable as possible for jobhunting but I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.I don't look like a beggar so no one will help me.Yet I don't look presentable ENOUGH(or smell presentable enough,believe me,a much harder problem to solve!)for most jobs.

I am desperate,desperate for something to change.I need help.I can't get out of this situation alone.

There are three ways you could help that would do the most good:

1.Gift cards to stores like Wal-Mart or Target,locations that have both clothing and hygiene items.
2.A check.I do have the ability to cash a check provided your bank is in my area.My only ID is out of state but still valid until 2014.It's the one I finally got after 2 years of trying!
3.An actual cash donation of any amount whatsoever.I only list this because the only way to widen my search radius for jobs is to be able to commute.Actual money is the only way i know of to pay bus fare or do laundry since I don't have a credit card.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated and can be sent to me at the following address:

I go out every day in search of work but without someone helping me I don't know how long I can keep going.I can't get unemployment(I haven't worked in so long).And i don't want to move because I have shelter from rain and a constant food supply where I am at.But really anything that anyone can do...!

I am pleading.I don't want to keep living like this.

Hi,
This is the first time I ever had to do this. I'm trying to run a small water hauling service in a very remote and dry area. Many people are depending on this service. They use catchment tank for water. When it dose not rain they call me to haul water to them. Many are on fixed income ( Social Security, disability and the like ), so I don't charge much, in fact I haven't upped my fee's in over three years. Tho, fuel, repairs and the water bill keep going up. My trusty old truck (1969) just broke a axle. This is very expensive to repair. I have raised most of the money, but still need a little help to pay off the rest of the repairs.
Any amount you can spare would be very help full. I figure if a few people even donated $1 each, it would add up and I can get back to providing clean water to those that really need it.

I own a two story farmhouse in NE Kansas and it needs about half the roof redone and two rooms remodeled form the water damage caused by the leaks from rain/snow, so far the damage is cosmetic, no structural damage that I can see. Also, I need help repairing or replacing my well pump, I have not had running water for over a year and a half, I got behind on credit card payments, medical bills, and car payments, but am working at getting them caught up. I am working full-time, just can't save up enough for these needed home repairs. I will accept either cash donations, or donations in the way of material and labor on these repairs. You may donate to either my PayPal account or checks and other offers of help to: Home Repairs 1187 Last Chance Road Troy, KS 66087 Many thanks to those that can be of help.
