Thank You so very much for your help. Heres my story. I am in my early 30s. I am a mother of two loving kids ages 4 and 9. My husband moved out a year ago after a bout of depression, stating "I love you thats why I cant stand to stay here n watch you die like this!" And it is true anyone who has watched a loved one waste away before thier eyes can tell you it eats your soul. In a way I cant blame him. I have hopes we will someday get our family back together. Untill then I am in this alone, and now find my self here asking you for help.
I have several cronic illnesses. Including scoliosis:Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown. My scoliosis curve got worse, the spine rotated and twisted, in addition to curving side to side. This caused the ribs on one side of the body to stick out farther than on the other side. Severe scoliosis can caused back pain and difficulty breathing. In my case In severe scoliosis, the rib cage may press against the lungs and heart, making it more difficult to breathe and harder for the heart to pump.I also experience harsh neurological affects of Muscle weakness, Numbness and Abnormal reflexes. To save my life I had to have surgery.
Surgery involves correcting the curve (although not all the way) and fusing the bones in the curve together. The surgeon lays bone grafts across the exposed surface of each vertebra. These grafts will regenerate, grow into the bone, and fuse the vertebrae together. The bones are held in place with one or two metal rods held down with hooks and screws, helping to support the fusion of the vertebrae.I went through all this at age 13. But now with the onset of sevral more cronic illness complication from the surgery that once saved my life now slowly kill me.
Years later I began getting sicker and sicker by the time I was 20 my spine was degenerating causing horrible pain, I had to have my appendix removed, then gallblader went bad. We never dreamed these all had a common factor. Doctors just shook their head proclaiming :you are just so young for your body to be failing like this". Eventually it was discovered I have Lupus and severe arthritus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease, meaning that the body' s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy organs and tissue. Lupus can affect any part of the body, causing inflammation and damage in joints, skin, kidneys, heart, lungs, blood vessels, or the brain. More than 90% of people with lupus have skin rashes, often triggered by exposure to the sun, and about half have kidney and lung problems. Because lupus affects the joints, it is considered a rheumatic (arthritis) disease.
Upon this discovery things began to make sense. So doctors now knowing why began a body wide check up to see what all has been affected. One test was A bone mineral density (BMD) test measures how much calcium and other types of minerals are present in a section of your bone. Your health care provider uses this test, along with other risk factors, to predict your risk of bone fractures in the future and detect osteoporosis. Bone fracture risk is highest in people with osteoporosis. They found I indeed had osteoporosis at the age of 22. SO now My bones are weaking causing damage areas all over my body, but the most serious being in my spine. Now comes the arthritis/lupus, they see these damaged areas and my own imune system attacks. Eating at the damaged areas creating even more damage, which increases the area the lupus attacks. It is a vicious circle. I have now been treated with medication over 10 yrs. But they can only slow the illness there is no cure, and dure to my scoliosis and the metal rods in my back surgical treatment options are very limited.
The damage is so severe I was decared legally disabled by the age of 23. My only income is SSI. I have to support my children and I on 658.00 a month. Thank God the court issued my ex to pay my rent in lue of child support. I am asking for help to cover upcoming medical bills. In the last 14 months I have had 5 seperate kidney surgery. My right kidney is damaged and I will soon be having a 6th surgery. This one to remove damaged section of the tube that leads from the kidney to bladder. then they will reattach at a higher section of bladder. I will aslo be having several Jaw surgeries. Due to exposure to radiation, osteoperosis a excessive vomiting of stomache acid my teeth are breaking and falling out. The doctor needs to repair what they can and put in inplants for what they cant. This will slow the degineration of my jaw. Without this treatment my jaw is going to cave in. Currently I am only able to eat mushy foods. I have drastically lost weight and my body is stuggling to heal due to the stress, pain and infection. So I hunbly beg of you to help me 1.00 or 50.00 anything would help. These procedures will not only improve my quality of life but aslo help extend my time here on earth just a little ehile longer. I just want to be with my kids as long as I can.Whith each dollar you donate its like adding an hour to my life.....What would you give for a few more hours with the ones you love?

Hello my name is Richard. A little about me. I am 37 yo/male living in WI USA and in need of help to pay for my rent. I moved to WI from TX in hopes of starting a better life for myself. I thought the person I that had offered me a place to stay until spring was going to be true to their word. Unfortunately that was not the case. The job I had at the time was one just a temp job to help enable me to contribute while I was staying with them and allow me to look for one within my profession. I was abruptly told that I had 3 weeks to leave their house before I would be removed. This was someone that I had known for well over 11 years and never thought something like that would happen. These were the only people I knew in the sate. At the time I had been working the temp job for a little over 2 months and at the rate I was making with the company there was little to know way I would be able to pay for deposits much less rent of a small apartment in the area. But with that I set out to make it happen somehow. So I continued the temp job and took other additional small jobs, fix it type things for extra cash. I was able to make the deadline and move into my own place which was actually best for me anyways.

I continued to work at the temp job but in doing so ended up getting continual and worsening respiratory infections due to the very poor air quality. I never intended to stay there for this long but with little time to devote to my job search within my profession I had no other choice. Months went by and the condition simply got worse. I was told by my doctor that I needed to find some other line of work and get out of the horrible work environment that I was working in as I was getting very close to pneumonia. Two weeks later it happened. I was out of work for the following 2 weeks. During that time I was forced to make the decision to leave the job and quit. This was very tough for me as I am not a quitting type what so ever. I had been raised to stick it out. But due to a medical condition that I have I simply cannot do that, for risk of compounding the issue.

So now here I am. I am a month late with my rent and facing eviction. I have no family or friends to lean on for help. I am currently enrolling to further my education to be a professional driver which will assure my future but for now I still need my apartment. My rent is $660 per month. I need to be able to cover February and March rent or I will end up being evicted which at that point will have no place to go but find a place (during winter) out on the street. So I plead with you to please find a place in your heart and help me with my problem. Doing this is so tough for me. I have never had assistance like this in my life. I have always been the one to do it on my own. This time however I simply cannot do it without help from you.

Please.

God Bless.

I am asking for prayers. I would absolutely LOVE to open a charity or "pay-what-you-can" diner for people who need help. The idea would be to have a benefactor or benefactors who would support the diner, then, once a week, or as often as financing allowed, I could open to the public, including the homeless and those who just need and encouraging home-cooked meal. It would be an honor system. Buffet style meal, pay what you can, after dinner, clean up your table and load your dishes in the dishwasher. Stick around and play games, watch TV, help with KP, whatever. If you like this idea, please send me encouragement, prayers, and positive energies. If you REALLY like it, and want to help finance it, just let me know. If there is enough financing available, I could start looking for a location and have Sunday dinner ready for you all to join me and my family. Thanks!

As hard as it was to just pick up and leave an abusive (both physical and mental) of 12 years, it was even harder to have my youngest daughter who is 3 walk up to me and say "mommy why are you crying, is it because daddy is mean too you?" That absolutely melted my heart and gave me the "final straw" scenario to leave my husband, and take my children so that they can be raised in a non-hostile environment.This decision has definitely come with a number of hoops and hurdles to get over. It doesn't scare me that I am now going to me a single mother, but its all the responsibilities that come with that title.

First hurdle, I had to overcome is finding a place for myself, 3 year old daughter and 1 year old son to live. There is a very limited amount of shelters for women with children, so we ended up staying with my bff in her 1 bed/ 1 bath 695 sqft apartment. While this is only temporary I am glad we at least have somewhere to lay our heads at night. Not to mention I work, 67 miles from my BFF's residence, and my kids school is another 80 miles away. This commute has almost been impossible to make, but my choices are limited at this point.

The things I so desperately need help with now is ANYTHING in your heart or power to do. Donations thru paypal are great and would help tremendously. I have to find a place closer to work and my children's school, I have my daughters school tuition of $385 due every month.I am lucky that her school is working with me considering the circumstances. I also still have to buy diapers and wipes, and organic food because my son has asthma and allergies. I never wanted to be rich, I just don't want to have to worry every week. I hope to be in a better position one day where my fiances not only allow me to live but also to help out anyone else in need.

Domestic Violence is such a mind game, it took me 12 years to see beyond the tricks and realize the damage it has done to not only myself but my two small children who are like sponges. Their behavior lately has me thinking that they will definitely have to go to family counseling in the near future.

Anything that is in your power to do will be so greatly appreciated. .50, $1, $5....whatever will help me rebuild our family unit. My husband mot helping me or focusing on the kids is his way of getting to me, but I cannot and will not ever go back. If anything please keep my children in your prayers, I hurt for them because I could not provide them with a traditional two -parent home. They are getting the short end of the stick and as a mother who is all about her kids...it hurts! Thank you for taking the time to read my story. If you are in a similar situation my prayers go out to you as well.

I am a 38 years old men from Hungary. I had been married for 10 years and I was absolutely satisfied with my life. I loved my wife very much. We had a child, a little sweet boy and we were living in a small apartment. I was never rich, but I was happy.

But in a "nice" spring day a got an unwanted phone call. A women - who has not revealed her name - told me that my wife had a lover and wanted to leave me. And - as it turned out - it was true. To the top of that it also turned out, that my wife was already pregnant from her lover. My whole world collapsed.

I loved my wife very much, I forgave her everything and asked her to remain with me. I promised her that I will accept her baby as my baby. After lengthy inner debate she decided to remain with me. A few months later her baby was born. I loved her little girl, because she was completely innocent. How could I hate her?

As time went by her baby got stronger. I hoped that things would get better. "Time heals all wounds" - as they say. But once, when I got home from work I found an absolutely empty apartment! She moved to her lover and she took my son with her! There was no word to describe my chagrin! I lost my wife, I lost my son, I lost my whole life just one day.

When I recovered myself I started to beg her to come back to me, because I was unable to process the events. A few months later my wife quarreled with her lover and to my greatest surprise she told me that she wanted to come back. I was very-very happy! I felt that I got back my life!

After she moved back with my son I started to look for a bigger apartment, because our old apartment became a bit small to our increased family. I found one which was large enough, but I had to ask for a huge loan from a bank to buy it. After we bought the new big apartment we all moved there and I thought that the dark period of my life was over. I thought that the moving and the nice new apartment will help my wife to distract her thoughts from her swirling and unstable feelings. This was a big mistake. One year later my wife left me again. She came together with her lover again and she moved to him. Fortunately she didn't take my son with her. This was the only consolation for me.

At last - three years ago - we got divorced. Since then my life is very hard. Due to all these events my financial situation is terrible. We are living from only one income. I am raising my son completely alone, no childcare, no family, no friends that can help me. It is not to easy for a men. I have to pay the high cost of the big flat and I have to pay an installment every month to the bank. I have a mortgage on my apartment. If I won't be able to pay the installment we will loose our home! My ex-wife doesn't even want to know about my awful situation although she was the one who caused the problems. I try to struggle out of this situation but I can't. I really work hard as a software developer but my salary in not enough for me to pay all our bills. I can't sell my apartment because of the economic crisis. Now my debt is much more higher than the value of my apartment.

I am not proud of my story. I admit that I was very-very naive. Maybe I should not have to stick to my wife for so long but I really very loved her. Now I am in a big trouble. If anyone could help me I would be grateful!

My name is Travis and I need a little help for my family. The hospital that I have been working for the last 11 years is expanding and as a result, they have cut my pay by about 5k a year. I'm not a doctor, and I get paid about what a teacher makes. The problem I’m having is that I would use that money to pay off the dept that would build up over time. We all have unexpected things happen in our day to day cost of living and I just cannot seem to get ahead. My wife and I are trying to raise two kids and we are breaking even because of the pay cuts. I have found extra ways to make money and I’m trying to stick to our budget, but it is never enough or steady. I'm slowly getting behind in everything.

Thanks for taking the time to care.
Travis.

i would like to get some kind of help of getting a car. I am on a limited income and can't afford the high prices of getting a car. The reason that I need a car is for my doctors appointments and keep up with them. I have a total of 4 doctors ranging from my primary to my neurologist. I have serious health issues and it is kind of hard to walk up a hill with having Diabetic Neuropathy in hands, feet, and lower half of my right leg. I also have kidney disease and I do hurt almost everyday. Please help me with a car. Yes I can drive a stick shift.

where to start. i'm a 25 year old male who has lost all hope in life i honestly dont know why i'm sticking around. I'm so depressed I've gone and got myself in to a lot of debt a few years ago and now i just cant seem to get ahead. I really want to change my life and do something with it, i have a good job that i enjoy and i seem to have a reasonable pay but it just doesn't cover the bills. I barely cover my interest at the moment after rent bills and food. I just want a start on life and after being dumped by my fiance today (on christmas of all days) I feel like i always give my all in a relationship and i end up getting hurt, this time i dont know if i'll ever be ready for a relationship again, it hurts so much i just want to die. I feel like i am stuck in a dead end town and i have no friends. I'm not a bad person and give myself and my time generously without ever asking for anything in return and yet i always seem to get the rough end of the stick. I have about 24000 dollars in debt a 1000 dollar phone bill and my car registration for about 600 dollars is due in less than 15 days. I just cant see any way out of this by myself. Any help would be so very much appreciated. If i dont start seeing this debt going somewhere soon i can see myself slipping deeper into depression. I dont want to feel this way

I lost my job, then went to emergency room two weeks later with the worst frikin abdominal pain. They said I had gall stones or some shit like that. The Doctor said I need surgery otherwise I will keep getting these attacks "randomly". I don't have the money and sure enough, I've had six attacks of this evil-like frikin pain that last 10-40 minutes. I just bite real hard on my dog's Catch stick till the pain subsides. The dog looks at me like I'm crazy. I know this is a long shot but.... Help if you can. I need a total of $5200. Happy holidays

Family of 8 in need, we need everything. We live in Oklahoma and would be willing to drive to pick up things we have lost. Please help out we have five kids, 4 boys 18, 13, 12, 9 and one girl 10. My husband works and I am on disability, my sister in law lives with us, because my brother is in a nursing home. We just found a home that we will hopefully be able to move in to in a few days. The deposits and rent will take up all of our money and we will not have anything left over. We need beds, dressers table and chairs, linens, and much more. If you have a tree or any toys or games that I can stick under it for the younger two it would be great. The older boys understand, but the younger two would not understand why Santa did not come. Thank you in advance.

I don't really know how to start this. It's such a different concept. I guess I'll just get to the nitty gritty of our situation...

My soon-to-be ex-husband cheated on me for 3 years at least 9 different times. At first I was in denial about his double life, but eventually I came to terms with it and just decided to try to stick it out a bit longer for the sake of my stepkids. They moved here from England in 2007 and I've been raising them since then. They're 17 and 19, and I was trying to wait till they both graduated high school before filing for divorce. I also have a 2 year old with him. I kept his infidelity a secret and carried the burden on my own, not even telling my family, until...the kids found texts in his phone last June to the woman who is now his fiance. In June I had to call the police because he nearly got into a fistfight with my stepson and physically got into my face as well, plus he told all of us that he was going to kill himself, but this has become a frequent ploy for manipulation by him. I have been primarily a stay-at-home mom the past 2 years bringing in only a few hundred a month. He was the primary breadwinner bringing home $4000-5000 a month. He moved out and moved in with this woman a block away from us, has not spent more than 5 hours with any of the kids since June, and refuses to provide any child support for any of the kids aside from paying the health insurance (which his work pays for), paying his car insurance, and only recently giving his 17 year old a few hundred dollars a month which she has to save for her bills too. I have been forced to figure out how to make ends meet and raise and support the kids on my own. I love my stepkids and happily will continue raising them and figuring it all out, working what I can and taking loans from whoever is willing to help. It's just really stressful and really tough right now.

I knew I was headed to a divorce, but I had no idea he would just abandon all of us completely like he has. And to top it all off, he has become very psychologically and emotionally abusive towards me and even sometimes towards the kids. Oh yeah, he also had no sense of self-control as far as spending goes, and he ballooned our debt up to almost $50,000, though some of that is medical debt as well. I'm facing divorce and bankruptcy on my own with 3 kids. As I type this I don't even know how I hold it together, but I've managed to. I'm healing and getting stronger and more able to put the pieces back together for the kids and I, but this is a BIG hole we're in, trying to escape, and it may be embarrassing to admit as an educated individual who never thought I'd be in these shoes, but I need help. If you are willing to help us, we would really appreciate it and it would truly make a huge difference in our lives. This feels so bizarre asking for help online like this, but I think it's an awesome way to really be able to help those in need. I'm glad I found it so that we too will be able to help others who need it most. In the meantime, thank you again for all your help at this extremely difficult, stressful and emotionally taxing time. You have no idea how much it helps knowing that people you don't even know care about if you and your kids are going to be okay. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Dear friends, today I am in desperate need of help. I have no other options and am really hoping that someone will give a look at my story and will consider helping in any way they can.

I am currently deployed, before deployment I ran into a few problems with backed up loans and credit card debts. A couple of these organizations notified my Commander; now the military is taking a good amount of my paycheck and forcing me to pay off these debts. This leaves me with net pay of around $500.00 per month. With this my wife cannot pay all the bills or take our kids out for nice times. Lucky housing is free but we had to disconnect phone and internet. This is my first deployment and I’m so stressed not knowing what the future brings.

I’ve tried getting help from the military but they need to stick strictly to their regulations. I have had classes on how to live with less but right now I cannot live at all until I know my family will be ok. I’m so depressed wishing I could go home to give a hug and let them know all will be ok.

I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks for reading -Specialist G

Hi my name Linda I am a Jewelry Designer (a great jewelry designer) I have built a inventory for the last 9 years, with many sales, many repeat customers and unfortunately you can't borrow against your inventory! So most of my avenues for help has been walked! So here is my plea.....

first want to thank you for taking your time reading this. I am not going to fully paste a long sob story, but this is a story of a broken father trying to get his son home where he knows he is going to be loved, safe and to be raised happy.

My oldest son Keegan who was born to me on Christmas has been out of my home for over 3 years. My son is 10 years old and right now is living at a Residential Treatment Center; this facility was provided to him by the State of Texas Department of Family Services. The Department of Family Services was sought by my ex-wife over 3 years ago for help assistance while I was working to support my family living. This is not going to be a story where I am going to bash my ex-wife, at that point of life she was not a good mother, she could not handle the responsibilities and our son Keegan was on medications or medical conditions given to us ADHD, Hyper-Aggressive Disorder, and possible Bi-Polar.

Keegan was not acceptance to large change. We had to move from a city and a house where my son felt settled, back to our home city of Amarillo. This condition did not set well with my son, but as long as Daddy was with him he felt safe. Then Daddy had to be gone from Monday through Friday (except Friday Night) for work, and then when I was home I would spend time with my kids. Keegan was settled with this, but on the second week gone his medications ran out and the MHMR would not see him for three weeks, his past Pedi-physiologist would not refill medications unless they saw him which started him on a process where his mother felt she could not attend to his needs. Situations always arose and my ex-wife sought help from the Pavilion while I was away. After one month of this my ex-wife who was listening to “her” friends kept telling her to seek help with Family Services. Then an incident happened at home, my ex-wife and her friends left the house to look at business property (for what reason I still do not know), but left a thirteen year old who was not mental capable himself to watch Keegan, his sister Shaylah, and her friends youngest son. The situation happened when my son Keegan and Shaylah got into an egg fight with the thirteen year old and his youngest brother. The youngest brother got upset because he was losing and picked up a stick and STABBED Keegan in the back and punctured him. Keegan got upset and picked up his Fatboy skateboard and knocked him across the forehead knocking him out in one hit. This information was provided to me by my ex-wife and her friends. That is when my ex-wife called the Sherriff f department on Keegan because of the situation; she allowed her friends threaten to beat him to death and scared him so bad he defecated himself. He did not feel safe and the only person who would make him feel safe was over 3 hours away.

Since Keegan was under the age of 10 years old they could not take him, so again my ex-wife called Family services and with the discussion of everything and the fact he had been in the pavilion prior the accepted to take him for help and placed him in a temporary children’s facility.

I did not even to get to see my son before they took him, I had to go to the Randall County Courthouse where I was explained by the legal team and Family Services if I did not accept this treatment for my son I would be held liable for the charges and I could charged for his actions. I knew my son needed help, but not this help. I was assured he would get proper treatment and care for, and he should be home soon. A year later I was told the state now has permeate custody of my son, but I still have a stature of rights as a parent and I am not banned to see my son.

There is more to that story, but again I am not dragging other events, but after three years he is in a facility that tends to switch out employees weekly, they are not participating in family counseling, at this point of my letter I have not talked to my son in over 2 months, and have not received any of his letters he writes. Visitation has been promised to me once every other month to bring him home for a day visit, but that has not happened 9 months. The State of Texas has made a statement they are not responsible to bring my son home for visitation because they do not have the money for this, and it is my responsibility to make the visitation visits 3 hours from me. I was promised weekly phone calls, but again that is not happening, and when I call the facility nobody seems to be there to assist with the issue. Texas Department of Family Services is over stocked on cases and I tend to get a voicemail over a real phone conversation, and when I email I may get a response. I was explained I am supposed to have family counseling sessions with Keegan because the facility is breaking that bond with my son and his family and for the past 3 months that has not happened. I have been told by the State because of my financial conditions even if he was ready to come home they would not let him.

This is my plea for help, my son needs help, I need help and I need to do something about my situation. I am a hard worker, I take care of my two other kids and do not receive any support from my children mother. I make enough to stay afloat, I have a best friend (as close as a brother) help me trade my old Chevy Pickup for an automobile that will get me around in the city but do not go hard on it. Overall I am just an average hard working low class worker trying to get back what is his.

This is as bad as it gets for me, I hate begging and I dont want to be a burden on society but i'm at my breaking point. 4 years ago out of high school I started working at Wal-mart, I started as a grocery stocker and made my way up to be a team lead as a truck unloader and supervisor. Things were great until last october when I witnessed a fellow employee being sexually harassed by someone underneath me. We filled a sexual harassment report with the managers but they blew us off. Since they refused to do anything to the kid he kept it up and then started underminding me as a supervisor because he knew he was getting away with it. I was told I needed to just "do the job" by another manager and the girl eventually quit after the kid assaulted her and tried to force himself on her in the parking lot. I was demoted and given the really bad jobs because of my "failure to supervise", then myself was picked on by the managers who used me as the scape goat. We tried talking to a lawyer but the case wasnt very good and would cost us too much. After months of being tormented and letting the kid crawl under my skin for the last time, I went to the office and told them I cant work for a company that endorses sexual harassment and sexual predators to work for them. I quit and regretfully didnt stay the two final weeks of the notice.

Since then I have been black listed by them when it comes to applying for other jobs. My room mate and only friend who lives around here, also worked with me and quit at the same time as me for the same reason. We both ended up having to terminate our lease in april after selling everything we owned other than our clothes, cars, my grill and a few necessities. I have no family to move back to, my parents are non-existant. I have lived out of my car and at a rest stop nearby for a good 4 months. I'm down to my last $5 due to last night my brake cables and brake fluid lines rotted out in my car from the terrible salting from the harsh winters. I finally have a job starting but I cant afford to get my car repaired now and that is going to compromise everything. I'm so worried about what I will do, the job pays bi-weekly and my first pay check wont be for 3 weeks after starting. Getting my car fixed means everything to me right now. Without it I am stranded. I bought the parts already but the service and labor fees are what is killing me the most. It will run about $200-300's.

Again I hate to beg, I feel so horrible even considering it, it feels so beneath me. I've always been the kind of person to donate and stick up for the people who are hard up, but now that I am in this position I dont know who to turn to. I'd be eternally grateful and will try to find some way to make it up if I can. God bless you all and may you never be put in this horrible situation. I would never wish it upon anyone :(

Love and hope to everyone

My name is edwin im 21 years old. I want to keep it very breif to not take much of your time. I have 2 little boys that i love so much and i hope that their life do not get effected because of my stupid mistakes.

All together i believe it to be around 4500 U.S dollars. Well my lisence had got suspended but i would drive to school, taking the risk because i was trying to find away to better my life. One morning on my way to school a car hit me and i panic and fled the scene because i have probation and i didnt want to go to jail,driving with suspended lisence is a violation of my probation. I cant afford a lawyer i owe my previous lawyers money and i might be going to jail for a long time. i have had a vEry bad year. i dont want to let my kids down but theres no way out of this problem, i need the money.
PLEASE I ASK ANYBODYS HELP. IM TRYING TO RAISE ABOUT 30,000 TO GET MY LIFE BACK. ALL I WANT IS A SECOND CHANCE TO DO THINGS RIGHT AND BE MORE CAREFULL. MY KIDS NEED THEIR FATHER. WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES BUT ILL BE STUPID TO NOT LEARN FROM THEM. I DONT WANT TO LOSE MY FAMILY I WANT TO STICK BY THEM AND BE THERE FOR THEM.

No, I don't think you are a sucker, but I AM trying to start up a confectionary business selling the best suckers ever made! My suckers are funky little designs, thick with outrageously great flavors, and everyone that tastes them raves on with how awesome they are.

Rootbeeralicious, CottonyCandy, Hotlanta!, LatteLove. Just a few of my superlicious addictive flavors.

This is all part of my "dumped by my huband at age 56" starting over strategy. I WANT success. I WANT to make candy lovers ecstatically happy by offering this ONESHOT dessert. And, just to tease you a little bit more, I am working on something called "Cake on a Stick". Don't want a whole peice of cake but craving some sugary sweetness, a little icing, some chocolate and the happiness of cake? I've got it! ToffeeCoffee, StrawberryMint, ChocoRocks, and a bunch of special ocassion creations that will knock your socks off!

Taste tests have proven that my flavors rock and customers will pay premium just to get one. People already contact me thoughout the whole year to beg me to make them. And Christmas?? I can't keep enough coming out of the kitchen. No more hobby for me! I'm ready for business.

Let's get started! As an investor, I'll send you a special edition personalized sucker all for you! Might even name one exclusively in your honor!

Come on! Take a chance and be a SUCKER for my SUCKERS!

can someone buy me a 50/60 inch new tv?i have a 19 inch and must stick my face almost one inch from the screan and my ss of 800 prevents me from buying this large set.

Help me be the kind of girl you like to pass when walking down the street. I am not an unattractive female, but I am over weight and have a few flaws I would like to...repair.
I am relatively healthy and looks are not the most important thing in the world and you could make a more traditional charitable contribution elsewhere, or you could say this is interesting and get a kick out of helping a young lady look her best.
I have never had plastic surgery before, and I am not interested in changing my overall appearance and creating a completely unnatural look for myself. I just want to improve some things and I cannot afford to do that without your financial contributions.
~I like my breasts, they are set high on my chest, nice and naturally round a very nice solid C cup, cute pert nipples, but I'm not 19 anymore and I would like a little lift nothing drastic no augmentation no reduction, just a lift.
~I like my face, I like my normal sized forehead, my nice not to thin not too thick eyebrows that feature a strong though not severe natural arch. I like my pretty and frequently complemented green eyes and their decent lashes that need only a coat of mascara to stand out, but I hate the furrows in my forehead, the crease in my brow and fear crow’s feet.
~My natural body shape leans toward the "hour glass figure" bigger breasts and butt than waist. However my shape seems to have gotten lost recently and no matter how much I change the foods I eat or the frequency that I eat them, I can never seem to lose more than 60 pounds :( and exercising helps me to feel great, but I really only firm up, I don't shrink. I am not looking to be a stick figure; I just want my nice natural shape back.
~I like my lips; someone once said to me, "you have Clara Bow lips" turns out Clara Bow was a silent film star. So my lips are beautiful and I worry about getting lines around them or losing their fullness, but I do not smoke and do not have any lines there yet. :)
I do not have kids, I am a good deal less than 40 and I enjoy outdoor activities. Help me keep the outdoors beautiful! ;)
F.Y.I.:
*The average cost of a breast lift varies from $3,500 to $6,000. Cost for anesthesia ranges from $1,000 to $1,300. The facility fee (or hospital fee) ranges from $500 to $1,500. The remaining cost is the surgeon's fee.
* The average cost of botox injections is around $450 - $500 per injection. Multiple injections are usually given at one time, so the cost can add up quickly.
*Portrait Plasma Skin regeneration (high energy, PSR3) is an exceptionally safe skin resurfacing modality when used by an experienced practitioner (it is somewhat technique dependent). Charge for a PSR3 can be $3500 and up, depending on the skin type. PSR1 treatments (low energy, multiple treatments) typically run $1500 for full-face treatment.
*Juvederm cost typically ranges between $800 and $1,300 per syringe, depending on the formula used and other factors. In some cases, a second syringe may be needed for a fully satisfactory outcome. Some practices may offer a reduced rate for the second syringe in these cases. ArteFill treatment now costs $1,000 per syringe. You may want to ask your doctor about payment plan options.
*Typically, Liposuction will cost an individual between USD $4,000 for 2 small areas and as much as USD $10,000 for 5 areas, but your Liposuction surgeon will have a more specific idea of the Liposuction cost after a consultation. On average, Liposuction in the U.S. costs $2,000 per body area treated. While the cost of the lower and mid body lift procedure generally ranges from $6,000 to $8,000, a full body lift typically costs $10,000 to $17,000, but can go up to $50,000 depending on the extent of treatment. The only way to determine the exact cost of lower or upper body lift surgery is to contact a plastic surgeon in your area for a full consultation.

I have gone into phlobotemy, and other blood related field (pick lines for cancer patients like my mom) in order to continue any further I must get vaccinations.

I was totally not expecting this (silly me), I can not find anything that I need free locally in San Francisco ( I have looked with documents of requirement from school I still have to pay for what I need). I have comnpleted my TB testing did not excpet for vaccinations to be so high. This is directly from the Colleges Site.

Immunizations
SF State requires that all students provide proof of immunization against Measles, Rubella and Hepatitis B.
Students who were enrolled in a California public schools for the seventh grade or higher on or after July 1, 1999 will not have to provide proof of immunization.
For complete information concerning immunization requirements and to print a copy of the proof of immunization form, please go to the Student Health Service.

The cost is Hepatitis B 75 dollars over 3 shots and Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) is 83.
They highly reccomend the Tetanus: Tdap ("Adacel"/"Boostrix") with whooping cough booster which is on special for 35 dollars.

I know this is a lot of money to ask for, but I would hate to lose all the money I have put into going back to school, and not be able to finish it because of shots.

I plan to so as much volunteer work as I can, for underfunded and needy faculities especially for women.

The total cost is around 300 dollars, I have my paperwork all filled out and stare like it is just going to magiaclly happen.

I want to go into the medical field to help people. I hope someone can help me help others, I see the hope in the future, just got to stick together till then

I have 12 credit hours completed. I just plan NEED help. Thanks for taking the time to read my wish and god bless.
