Single Mother Needs Your Help

Here is her heartbreaking story: "My story has been a very long, never ending painful one. I am a single mom, that had a very well paying job that ultimately I was laid off of. After that, I consistently have not been able to find employment, and have lost just about everything. Items my daughter loved, I worked so hard to buy her we had to pawn, just recently my car that is totally paid off I had to pawn to keep the lights and water on. Now my situation is being in a home with no vehicle, no car to go to least food pantries to get food. I am too weak to walk to the bus stop due to the fact non stop not eating because my daughter comes first. We didn't celebrate birthdays, Thanksgiving or Christmas. Organizations in my area have provided no help, ones that can the waiting list for help is very long. Its a situation that just continues to get worse. If I don't pay a 129.00 heat bill by Tuesday my heat will be turned off. I am in desperate need of help. I have no friends or family to turn to in order to just get me back on my feet again so I am at a loss now what to do."

My wife and I are self supporting missionaries, serving in the Dominican Republic. We have been here for about 4 years.

13-year Veteran About to be Evicted: Help this Proud American Family Avoid Homelessness on Veterans Day!

Once you have read this heartbreaking story, you will find a way to help this veteran and his family. Let's pay back the men and women who have served in the military!

Here is the story Jim sent to us

"Hi my name is Jim. I am a 13 year veteran with an honorable discharge who has served during three conflicts. I recently got out of the Army in April 2013 I am on unemployment drawing $752.00 every two weeks. I do not receive any aid. My rent is $1195.00 a month. I have actively looked for work and have been unable to obtain a job paying more than minimum wage.

I have gotten behind on paying my rent due to paying for insurance that I desperately have to have because I have a wife with a medical condition. My unemployment barely pays my electric, water, vehicle payment, and insurance. I received a notice last week (Nov 8, 2013) stating that if my rent wasn't paid by November 15, 2013 the eviction process would be started. I have two daughters and I don't want to have to tell them that we are being put out in the street. I need help. I hate asking for help but I have no choice.

I have picked up Aluminum cans, tried getting odd jobs but still don't have enough to cover what I need. Any help would be much appreciated.

Please help Jim and his family now. "Hello. I was searching on the internet for help and came across your website post2beg. This is not something that I do all of the time and it is something that I hate to resort to but I have virtually exhausted all of my efforts in trying to seek help through veterans administration and other emergency agencies only to be told that I must be evicted or must have my electricity turned off before I can get any help. I do not want to let it get to that point before acting so I am asking that my story be told..."

Heartbreaking Story of a Mother of 4, One of the Worst Stories I Have Read Thus Far

Here is her story: "As I write this request I find myself at the end of the road. I have never written anything like this and feel terrible doing it. I am a mom of 4 and was living the American Dream until it all went wrong about 5 years ago. While in 3rd year of nursing school I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer which required a total hysterectomy. I had suffered thru years of painful episodes but powered through. Trying to make a better life fore and my kids. I owned a home, a car and had lots of friends. Not only did this first medical problem cause me to drop out of school. It left me owing a ton of money for student loans, caused a bad home refi which ended up causing the loss of my home 3 years ago from an adjustable rate that tripled and a dependence on pain medication which took 5 years to beat. I feel defeated. I was traumatized over the loss of my impending career(and still am) , the medications and eventually cost me my home and car. That first surgery lead to numerous others, appendix, gall bladder, adrenal, intestinal removal and finally spinal surgery. Once they opened me up it has been one problem after the next. Even my family have become immune to my medical problems and I don't even get help with the kids anymore. I have patents who basically told me they really don't like kids and want to enjoy their golden years without them. My kids are so humble and well behaved. It boggles my mind. These poor babies, I'm all they have and we love each other deeply. They do great in school and I get them there every day. Gt students. I'm sure they are made fun of because they were old clothes, nothing in fashion and off brand clothes but you would never know it. Each day they tell me they had a great day when I know they didn't. So humble! I have battled with insurance companies and courts over medical bills , student loans and defaulted credit cards because I just couldn't keep a job due to all the missed time at work. I kept a brave face for my children and have always acted like all was fine. We have moved 3 times in the last 3 years and I just want my a house of my own and some semblance of a middle class life back. Now I'm on the verge of being homeless again. I will beg for a rental and to not check my credit and buy my family another year hopefully unless i can come up with some rent money. I managed to secure a decent job for the last 3 years and they allowed me unpaid time during each surgery. Although being told 4-6 weeks off is what i needed, i never took more than 1 or 2 only hurting my body worse. Sold everything I had of any value now there is nothing left. Some things that are gone I struggle with because they meant something to me and are now gone forever. I make excuses why my kids can't go to birthday parties because I can't afford to buy a gift. I feel like I have robbed them of their childhood memories and I can never get that back for them. I finally came to the conclusion that suicide would at least provide them with monthly social security money and force their father to take them so I just attempted, only to be found at the very last moment and lived. I was so angry because I felt they were better off with someone who could provide a more financially secure life. I have no family with means willing to help and I feel trapped. I skip meals so the kids can eat and live on cup of noodles after everyone had gone to bed. At 33 cents each its all I can do. Each day I'm afraid (and don't) answer the phone, they are all collection calls and I get scared when the door bell rings wondering if its someone else to serve court papers on a defaulted loan or card. The IRS wants past due money, and all of my utilities are extended as far as they will go. I'm literally about to lose it all. I have alienated myself due to fear and smile as if nothing is wrong so my kids think all is well. Ive run out o excuses why i cannot attend bingo and pampered chef parties etc... I watch these reality shows where a $10,000 watch is a normal purchase and think, that watch would change our lives. Now this past Monday as I was about to return to work from the latest 2 week unpaid medical leave, only to be told they have decided to go in another direction and maybe I needed more time to get well. As a small company they do not have to adhere to medical leave rules and had every right to let me go with no repercussions. In other words, I was fired. Told I can sell their items part time with no salary, just commission in the slowest time of the year for this business. There is nothing there to sell. I throw in the towel. Prayer, yard sales, begging ,nothing has worked. I have no options and don't know what to do. I have spoken to crisis teams to get my emotions in check but none of that will pay the bills. I hope there is someone out there who is willing to help a hard working, honest person get back on her feet and keep her family together. I do believe in pay it forward as well as good karma. I have done so much for other people but I have no one to do for me. I have been a good law abiding person who hit a 5 year run of bad luck I guess. Please, there has to people out there who can spare a few dollars here and there for essentials like gas and electric and food etc. Any help would be utilized wisely and immensely appreciated. A couple thousand would change our lives.even if its $5 at a time. I need to Pay my rent, irs, medical bills, student loans, groceries. Literally it would change everything. Please I beg you to post. I have 7 cents left to my name. And nothing of value left to sell.

Single Mother Praying For Help. Won't you Help her Now?

Here's this single mother's story:

"Hi All, I'm a single Mom to a wonderful Daughter. We have been the only one each other has for a long time. We both are collecting S.S. Disability. Which isn't much at all. We have never had a good life. I worked so hard getting good credit again. It took a long time. Then I had too much credit and I charged to much. I was keeping up with the payments pretty good. Then we were told that we had to move. In a way I was really happy that we had to move, but I knew we really couldn't afford any higher rent. We were paying $415 a month there. We looked real hard to find something that we could afford. We found a Wonderful place and we pay $650 a month and that's even on the cheaper side here. Rent is real high here. And we absolutely love living here. The old place was a wreck! The septic tank was always backing up into our backyard and our bathtub. The place was full of black Mold. My daughter has Asthma and it affected her breathing. The kitchen cupboards were falling off the wall so I had to keep everything in boxes in the middle of our living room. We had so many mice that we couldn't get rid of. and they were in all the boxes. The bathroom floor was caving in and the house was sinking in, in the middle of the house. They were suppose to put jack stands under the house before we moved in. We lived there 6 years and nothing was ever fixed for us. We heard gun shots every night! I was so scared when night time came. I wouldn't answer the door after dark. There were 3 murders on our street in the last 3 years. We also had to move because the Landlady's daughter wanted to move in there. Which she did. I heard that they remodeled the bathroom and the kitchen. We had to move and this was one of the cheapest places that we found. We just Love this house and the neighbors! And our landlord is the Greatest! It's the Best place I've ever lived in. We are so Happy living here. But now our rent is $235 more a month and we are having problems paying the bills. I get so many phone calls Everyday from Bill Collectors wanting their money. I don't know what to tell them. I have no answers for them. So I usually don't even answer the phone. I just want it to stop ringing everyday. I am so stressed out and I'm a Nervous wreck. Because of the financial mess that I'm in. I don't see a way out. From all the stress and all I have been picking and digging at my skin. Due to my nerves. I pick at my face, arms, legs all over. I'm a mass of open sores that really hurt sometimes. People look at me so funny because of all my sores. I am scared for life, And with all my stress I can't even stop picking and digging. Believe me I have tried. After being without a car for 5 years, I was given one a couple of months ago. It's a 1998 Ford Escort. It feels so good to have a car again. I feel free and not like I'm in prison anymore. But, now I have $54 a month insurance I have to pay. I don't drive alot or go away alot so gas isn't that bad for the price that it is. My car broke down on Sept.10th. I had to get it towed. I had it towed to the place my friend has her cars fixed. The bill came to $962.49 . They had to replace the alternator, the serpentine belt, and belt tensioner assembly, and a tie rod. Then they had to do a wheel alignment after putting on a new tie rod. I didn't know what I was going to do? I didn't have any money, I was broke until I get my check Oct. 3rd. With the repair shop knowing my friend and her husband they let me do a payment plan. With my friend co-signing for me. Now I have to pay $81 a month for a year. There is no interest for 1 year. I don't know what I'm going to do? We are already behind on our bills and utilities. Now we have another monthly payment. The bills I owe came to close to $15,000.00. Now I have another bill. My car still needs more repairs. It needs a exhaust system and the a/c and heater doesn't work. When you turn them on nothing happens. I'm really going to need a heater and defrost this winter. .If nothing else I have to pay the car repair bill. I can't and won't stick my friends with it! I just don't know how I'm going to do it? I'm in a heck of a bind and I have no idea how to get out of it? If only some way I could be Debt Free. I think we could make it. But we can't with all the bills. I never want to charge anything again. We were so much looking forward to having the holidays in our new house. But, I can't even see thinking about the Holidays this year. I don't look forward to much anymore. And they dropped my Food stamps down to $137 a month! When it rains it pours! And I can't find my umbrella. I'm sorry that this letter got to be so long. I could probably write a few more pages but I won't. I just wish I knew which way to turn? I would be So Grateful if there was someone out there that could help us. Thank You So Much for reading this. Take care."

Self-employed IT Consultant Launched Business, Fell Sick, and Lost it All

Here is Charlie's story: "Hello, I am Charlie and currently find myself in a terrible predicament. 12 months ago (Oct 2012), I decided to take the plunge and go self-employed as an IT Consultant. I spent every last penny of my limited savings to setup (online presence, marketing, insurance, business cards, etc). After 3 months things were going well considering the tough economic times. What I couldn't have foreseen was that I became very ill in April 2013, meaning I couldn't drive. I also wasn't well enough to dedicate the time and effort required. After months of tests and hospital visits, I am now on good medication and feel ready to carry on with my venture. Sadly, the last 6 months has left me without money, so the only way I can get my business going again is to literally beg that some kind person may be able to help. I am barely able to feed myself, let alone find money to market and renew my business. If you are genuine then any help would be much appreciated. My email and paypal is cefmorris@googlemail.com Thankyou for taking time to read and possibly consider my request. Regards"

South African Mother of Two Needs Your Help After Losing Cars, Home, Furniture, and Employment

Here is Cheryl's heartbreaking story.

"I have been unemployed since the beginning of 2013, lost two cars and basically all my furniture. Electricity was disconnected twice and the only way I could get it reconnected was selling my last furniture.

I was served with an eviction order on Friday 23 Oct 2013 which I am trying to get set aside even if it is for 2 months, as we really have nowhere to go.

As a single mother of 2, sole provider in all needs, this has become exceptionally difficult. I have no financial reserves as the little I had was used to sustain us and my rescued pets. I am in overdraft at the bank and due to not being employed no-one is willing to help me with a loan.

Due to employment not being available to white South Africans, I require funding to rent property and I would like to start my own business as a day care center for pets while owners are working, something that is not available in South Africa. I never would like to walk down this road again as this is the second time in my life. If I could do this I will not be in this position again.

My family and I have no-where to go, no means of starting a life again, and we really need help, please.

Any amount to help me reach my target would be of great help and my sincere gratitude will always be.

Help Solve This Man's Money Issues: Desperate to Pay Doctor Bills

Here is a story of need, a heartbreaking story that will make you become a good Samaritan. Help this man pay his bill

"I am a 40 year old (will be in November) single white man, no children, no family of my own - just a few aunts and uncles scattered here and there. I have always tried to be a caregiver to my elderly aunts and uncles, I have stayed in my hometown because I know that If I left, they wouldn't have anybody to check up on them or get them things from town when they can't get out themselves. One of the aunts I try to take care of daily (2 sisters who live together) has been paranoid schizophrenic all her life, and I am the only family member who can and does help take care of her. They are the only reason I stay in this town. I have begun suffering problems of my own over the last few years - I have a chronic compression fracture in my lower back, and have been in active pain management because of it for the last 5 years.

I have just recently (in the last two years) begun to suffer from extremely high blood pressure and abnormally fast pulse rate. It is all I can do sometimes to get up and take care of myself each day - but I still try to take care of these two aunts every day as well. ( they are 76, and 68 years old). My problems have gotten me to the point where I can 't hold a job - I can't stay vertical enough hours of the day to go to work. I left my last job in May, because I just couldn't work 10 hour shifts anymore. I have tried at every available place I can here in my town - and every time I talk to Human resources, everything is just wonderfully peachy until they find out I have health problems. And the minute they find out I am in Pain Management it is a definite "Sorry - you wouldn't be a good fit here" situation. I have applied for disability but I was of course denied -because I can do "desk work" (i have been in the IT industry for all of my career - and that doesn't require any lifting. But the places won't hire me - even for non lifting jobs, because I am a liability that they are afraid they could get stuck with if I hurt myself while working. Basically I'm a risk they don't want to take. I don't know what else to do. I have consistently applied at EVERY job in my town - and they all say the same thing. But I can't afford to just pick up and leave my town, because my aunts wouldn't have anybody to take care of them.

So I am just stuck. And I now have about $2000 worth of Doctor Bills because of the testing I had to do with a cardiologist because of the High Blood Pressure and Tachycardia problems I have begun experiencing of the last two year. I don't know how long it will take me to appeal my disability - but I have to try to do that now, and of course, I don't qualify for any welfare assistance or anything like that because I'm a young white man in my prime. I should be able to just do anything - but I assure you I cannot. So as I continue to try to find a job every day-(the WIN Job center is getting tired of seeing me in there almost daily) and take care of my family - I have just used everything I spent the last 25 years of my life working for. I am hoping that something will become available by Christmas, if I can just hold in until then- but I'm not going to make it past the next couple of weeks if I don't get help from somewhere. I have always tried to be a compassionate and charitable person - and when I was working I regularly gave to charities. But now I am at the point to where I need someone to help me. I have gone past the point of being ashamed and embarrassed by my situation - I am almost at the point to where I'll have nothing left to lose. So that is why I am turing to the internet - the only place where I know more people than I do outside my front door, and asking humbly for help. I'm not ready to leave everything I have in my apartment and go start sleeping in a cardboard box in the alley - but that's where I'm headed if I can't find someone who cares enough to help me out. I'll take anything I can possibly get - but my main concern is the $2000 medical bill for my heart tests.

I am working almost 20 hours a day online as a "mechanical turk" on Amazon, doing "Human Intelligence Tasks" - like transcribing Audio and video for $10- $15 per job to make enough to keep the rent paid and the lights on. I only eat once a day, when I can afford to - but I can live a little without food as long as I have somewhere to stay and stay cool. I have always tried to be compassionate and giving, and I just hope that there is somebody out there who feels the same way, who can help me in this most difficult time. I don't qualify for public assistance because I don't have kids, and I'm just not the right type of person to be needy enough, I guess. I have worked every day of my life since I was 15 up until may of this year. And now that that I'm having health issues, it's like -"Oh, well, thank you for all you did, but we don't want to help you out anymore because you aren't important enough for us to waste our time on. We'll hire the new healthy young people to do your job and you can just go fade off into wherever, we don't care, and don't bother us anymore." I really hope that there is someone out there who feels like I am not a waste of space. Because if there isn't then I don't know what I'll do next.

I know that I am not begging for help for my child or anything (because I don't have children) but I don't think that I should be treated as worthless. So please, somebody, help me. If there is any God in this world who can hear my prayers, I hope that he will hear mine right now - because otherwise, there won't be any use to trying to keep on going every day. It'll be time to give up. Please, somebody, hear me. I have a Paypal account at Terry_Woodson@msn.com I just hope that someone who reads this will care enough to help. Because I feel like I have been abandoned by everyone, and I'm getting to the point to where I'm losing my faith in God and in Humanity."

Disabled Single Mother: Here's Amanda's Story of Financial Needs

Firstly I wanted to Thank you for reading my message -

This is very hard for me to do because I don't like asking for help and I have always tried to manage with what I have but my circumstances changed so much I can't cope anymore - I am a single parent with 3 children I am also disabled and cannot work due to my poor health. I started working at the age of 13 and never missed any days off from being ill If I got a cold I would just get on with it, I used to run for the county championships, Ballet and cycling for miles everyday then my life change. ..

I got home after a day's work and ran up the stairs but when I got to the top of the stairs I lost my footing and fell from the top step to the bottom I screamed and my son's came running, ( you have to know that I don't like to make a fuss ) they helped me up to my bedroom where I lay all night in pain, in the morning I went to my doctors and he said he thought I had a bulging disc and bruising across my lower back he gave me some pain killers and anti-inflam tablets and I went home. Over the next few years I carried on with work but would find at the end of the day my back was hurting more and more so I kept going back to the doctors about it he kept saying the same thing and like a fool I listened thinking he knew what he was talking about .... Almost four years after my accident I had had enough I was missing days at work because of the pain and my children were having to help me more and more around the house and I also had to start using a walking stick, anyway I went to see someone else and as soon as I told her why I was seeing her she asked me " Have you ever had a scan or x-ray on your back ?? " I said no and explained that the other doctor didn't think it was necessary, a week later I had an M.R.I and had to wait 3 weeks for the results. I received a phone call from the doctor and she told me I had a slipped disc which was pushing onto my nerves in my legs and because it had been left for so long I also had the on-set of Osteoarthritis in my spine. Over the next 5 years I went to see different surgeons and specialists but they all said there was nothing they could do and I would have to live on pain killers for the rest of my life - I was in my late 20's so it came as a massive blow to me. Some time passed and I thought maybe there is something they could do at a different hospital so I ask my doctor for a referral and waited for my appointment, While I was at that appointment the specialist said he could try injecting a numbing liquid into my spine to numb the nerves so the pain would stop I was willing to try anything I could to fix this problem so I was booked in for this procedure. There was a 50/50 chance of it working if you had hurt your back with the time period of 6 months so because my Injury was over 5 years before I wasn't holding my breath. I was right not to because it didn't work, all it did do is hurt a lot because they didn't numb the area first !!!

I had to get use to my life now no more cycling or running because just walking hurt like mad ... 2 years after I had the injection into my spine I was out in my local town when I suddenly felt very faint and my heart was pounding out my chest the next thing I remember I woke up in an ambulance on the way to the hospital, I saw a heart specialist and he told me I had had an S.V.T which means Sub - Ventricular Tachycardia which means my heart pumps so fast it hasn't got time to pump the blood around my body causing me to pass out without any warning. I was given some tablets to help the palpitations ( I should of been given Beater Blockers but due to my asthma I can't ) I thought what else could this world throw at me - First my bad back then my on-going heart problem so I walked less and less because I was always feeling faint ... Just as I sort of got use to feeling like this I started getting really agonising pains all over my body, I thought maybe it was linked to my bad back and maybe I had been sitting or lying in the wrong position but it just got worse - Once again I went to the doctors and she sent me to the hospital for x-rays in my knee's ( which is where the most pain was at that time ) but they came back clear, I was living on loads of pain killers everyday just to cope with getting out of bed but some days even that was to hard for me to do, My children became my carers and I thought I was going mad because the pain was so bad the only way I can describe it to you is If you could Imagine the centre of your thigh bone being on fire and feeling like someone was twisting the bone and trying to pull my leg off, I was crying myself to sleep everynight and my pain meds increased every few months - I did a lot of searching on the Internet for answers but it kept pointing my problems to " Fibromyalgia " which I had never heard of before so I did more research and as I read it it was like reading about myself.. I went to the doctors with all this Information to ask if I could have this and after she read everything and passed it to one of her doctor friends they came back and said yes I had that aswell. It is a chronic pain disorder, I live with constant pain all over my body- Some days I can't use my hands other days I can't walk anywhere so I have a wheelchair .. I am on morphine on a hourly basis now and hundreds of other tablets ( I can give names of them and dosage if wanting to know more ) ..

The reason I am asking for help now is because I can't cope anymore - I am stuck in my house unable to get out anywhere, my kids do everything for me and go shopping after school - I was turned down for disability living allowance because they said because I could sit in a chair I could cook a meal - What they fail to see is when I'm sitting in the chair I can't bend down to put anything in the oven I can't remember the last hot meal I ate my children have learnt to cook for themselves. I am on Employment and support allowance but can only just afford food and bills...

I don't want sympathy for what I deal with but I would love a mobility scooter so I can get out the house to do the food shopping or so I can take the boys out for the day - I would love to take them away on holiday but can't afford that either so If anybody can help me and my family it would mean the world to me and my boys - I'm all they have there father walked out on me before my accident and he hasn't bothered with them since and he doesn't pay the CSA because they can't find him. I was looking after myself and my boys, I paid my way but then it all changed - Completely out of my hands ...

Please please please help us :) :)

Kind Regards

Pregnant, Homeless and Ashamed: Can you help?

Here is a story of great needs: "On Friday, March 26, 2010 12:28:44 AM UTC, eileen wrote: Hello. I am single, 5 months pregnant and was just evicted from my home. I am working full time, and I save money whenever possible, but I fell behind in my payments a couple of months ago when my car broke down. I had to use almost a whole month's pay to fix it, but I no choice because I needed a way to get to work to keep my job. My landlord worked with me for a couple of months, but he is also having trouble making ends meet. He had other people interested in renting my apartment, so he said he couldn't help me anymore. I am now sleeping in my car and washing up at work. I do not mind for myself, but I am concerned for my baby. I do not feel safe in the car or in the local shelter. I am also worried that since I don't have a kitchen to prepare food any more, I am not able to eat as healthy as I should for the baby. I applied for the Women, Infants & Children program in my state, and for food stamps, and those programs are wonderful, but without a refrigerator and stove, I can't benefit from many of the healthy food options that they provide. I also applied for housing assistance, but the waiting list in my area is extremely long. I am so ashamed to ask perfect strangers for help. I pray every day to find safe, affordable housing near my work. I am saving the best I can for first month, last month and a security deposit. I think that one of my prayers was answered when I found this website. If you can find it in your heart to help, any amount would be a blessing. When I am back on my feet, I promise that I will return it to you or pay it forward to another needy person; which ever you would prefer. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Bless You"
