Dire Need: Single Father of 3 Kids Needs Your Help

Here's a story of needs. Please help him

"I got laid off in Jan. and my bills are piling up. I am a single father raising 3 kids on my own. I paid up my rent ’til May and now it’s Sept. I have been looking for work every single day and nothing has come up. I have been so stressed about my phone getting shut off and potential employers won’t be able to contact me. Not to mention my rent. If I get evicted, my children and I will be out on the streets. If that happens, the kids will have to go back to their abusive mother who’s never home and I really don’t want them to have to deal with her again. I now have a dish washing job, but I’m so far behind on everything, I won’t be able to catch up. My kids need things for school, my laundry’s piling up while things I need to run my home is dwindling. I am in dire straights and really need the help. $2,500.00 should get be by. Please help…I don’t know what else to do."

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.

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"

Heartbreaking Story of US Army Veteran, Brave Soldier of Iraq and Afghanistan Wars: Family Needs Your Financial Assistance for Treatment

Heartbreaking story of this U.S Army veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan wars:

Hello, my name is Gary and I'm a US ARMY veteran. After doing two tours in Afghanistan and one in Iraq I decided not to re-enlist but instead to get out of the military. A few months later on August 11, 2013, I had finally completed my four year enlistment and I returned home to raise my family. We arrived back in Georgia and stayed with family for a few weeks while we searched for a house. After we found the perfect house at a great price, we immediately took all our savings that we acquired while I was in the ARMY and made a down payment on our first home.

I then immediately started working fulltime at a great job offered to veterans building fuel tanks for airplanes. I needed to make a good income so my wife could return to school fulltime to finish the last few courses that she needed to finish her degree as a licensed practitioner nurse. Upon graduating she was going to start working and I was going to only work part time. When she got her LPN i could afford to go back to school fulltime. I acquired 40 credit hours for college while in the ARMY in the medical field and i want to specialize in physical therapy or sports medicine once I'm able to return to school.

After we started work and school and started to get settled into our new house we couldn't have been any happier. It was me, my wife Brandy and our daughter Cassidy and we were also expecting another child. Everything was going amazing until the day that our lives as we knew them were changed forever. On the morning of March 16, 2013 me and Brandy dropped our 5 year old daughter off at my mothers house and we started to the next town over to the OB/GYN doctor. She was having a routine check up and 3D ultrasound performed to find out the sex of our child. We never imagined that we wouldn't make it to our destination that day and that our lives would never be the same after the events that were about to take place. As we were stopped at a redlight waiting for it to change a towtruck traveling 60 mph struck the driver side of our vehicle. I had to be air lifted to a hospital in Tennessee with life threatening injuries. After arriving at the hospital and being stabilized the Doctors told my family I needed surgery but I was stable, that I was very lucky to live and that I had a long road to recovery. I underwent 3 surgeries over the next 24 hours.

Almost 40 hours after the wreck i finally woke up in a hospital with no memory of what had happened to me. I tried to smile when I seen my wife and daughter sitting at the foot of my bed but my face was in to much pain. When she noticed I was awake she quickly stood up and told me she loved me repeatedly as she softly kissed my cheek. She helped Cassidy give me a kiss then layed her down on the bed beside me and she set there and held my hand. I told her I didn't remember anything and I asked if her and the baby were okay. She started to cry as told me what happened in the wreck and assured me that she was okay and had only minor scrapes and bruises and a minor concussion. She said it was a miracle that she escaped with no serious injuries. Shortly after she was examined at the hospital she was released but told to see her OB/GYN doctor asap. She went the next morning and our baby was completely untouched and unharmed. To be safe she was ordered to spend the rest of her pregnancy in bed to keep all stress off of the baby. I felt relieved my girls were all okay. I then asked her the extent of my injuries but she had already gotten so upset she wasn't able to talk about it anymore. She went and got my Doctor and he came in with a list of my injuries. I had internal bleeding that was caused by 4 broken ribs. My lung and my smaller intestines were punctured and required immediate surgery. My back had been broken in two places, my left arm and shoulder were crushed and my left leg was broken right above my ankle. I suffered from a severe concussion and bleeding on my brain. My face was split from my hairline down the middle of my face, between my eyes, beside my nose all the way to the top of my upper lip requiring 36 stitches and 6 more in my bottom lip. I also suffered many cuts and a lot of other non serious injuries all over my body. The doctors done their best to fix my back and shoulder but they will never be the same but they said my organs will recover. My broke leg healed great as well as my head and face but my eyes are still black today. After 28 days in the hospital I was finally able to go home on April 13, 2013. I started physical therapy 4 days a week to gain my strength back in nearly my entire body. I have made amazing progress and continue getting better every day. With the injuries that i sustained I have lost my ability to work and provide for my family. I am physically unable to work and to avoid further injury I was advised by my lawyer not to work until my Neurologist said i could, therefore my income immediately stopped.

One week after the accident we were completely broke except for some stocks/shares we had purchased a few years ago. We sold our 100 shares at a 31 percent loss to put food on the table for the time being. My wife started working just so we would have some kind of income to live on. We then went to Family and Children Services to ask for assistance and were approved for food stamps and health insurance for the kids at nearly no charge. The assistance we receive helps us but it and my wifes small income together are still not enough for us and our two girls to live on. We have let all of our luxuries in life go including cable, internet and home phone along with eating out and most family activities and we are still short every month when paying bills. I have received nearly 600,000 in unpaid medical bills since the accident occurred and I am still having to visit the doctor often. The company owning the tow truck was at fault for the accident but did not have any type of insurance on the vehicle because it had been out of service for months and was being fixed and road tested at the time of the accident.

The company at fault will be held liable and have to pay my medical bills and other expenses resulting from the wreck. Since they had no insurance on the vehicle involved in the wreck their business insurance has refused to pay and the company and driver are financially unable to pay the medical bills or help me and my family in any other way. My personal car insurance along with my GAP insurance payed my vehicle off but did not help me get a new vehicle.

I hired a lawyer and he filed lawsuits against both the towing company and the driver of the vehicle but told me it could be up to two years before the case was settled in court and awarded any compensation for my bills and pain and suffering. My attorney has assisted me with some of the costs of physical therapy, doctor visits and prescription medications. Every little bit has helped us but we are still unable to pay all the bills and keep gas in the car and we keep sinking deeper and deeper in debt as everyday passes. Neither me or my wife smoke tobacco or drink alcohol and we are both God fearing, church going individuals. We are asking for someone's help in our time of need. We are asking for donations of any amount to help with the costs of daily living such as groceries, utilities and all other household expenses that we require.

Please find it in your heart to help me and my family stay afloat until we receive the compensation that we are entitled to. This wreck literally destroyed our life as we knew it and put us in a very bad bind. Any donations are greatly appreciated no matter how much. Please find it in your heart to help my family in our time of need. Anyone who believes they can help us or knows of any assistance we qualify for please email us at Garycoggins1988@gmail.com or send your donation of any amount to our Paypal account listed as Garycoggins1988@gmail.com. All donations are greatly appreciated and we want to say Thank You and God Bless to you all.

Gary, Brandy, Cassidy and Abigail

Family in Financial Crisis Needs Your Intervention: Husband Is Forced to Let His Wife Join a Club as a Dancer to pay $20,000 in bills

Here is the story of the family's situation: "navarrerazorboi@hotmail.com> " Tomorrow will be the hardest day of my life. Tomorrow my daughter who is almost two years old is going to live with her disabled grandma 100 miles away from me and my wife because we fell into financial crisis. The trailer we have been buying from my wives grandparents is falling apart and was falling apart when we moved in. It seemed like a great idea in the beginning and was really our only option. We took over payments when my wife was pregnant and have been making the payments every month at $500. We have paid about $12,000 total. i have been the only one working for the past 2 1/2 years so that my wife could be a stay at home mom (who better to raise a child than the mother) I have been working at a temp service however and they offer little or no medical coverage. Needless to say with the pregnancy and regular check ups our medical debts have compounded quite nicely, and now my daughter has to get vision therapy or she may lose sight in her right eye. i picked up a second job for a while working nearly 70 hours a week but still couldn't get caught up on anything. Here is where it gets better/worse. We decided we want to move to a different city closer to my daughters doctor. Problem is we have no credit and about $20,000 in various bills and collections. We don't want to move into another trailer, we want a secure home. A house. In order to make this happen as fast as possible my wife is going to start working at a club as a dancer. Not something either of us really want to have happen but the money is good and we are willing to do anything we can to make this happen as quick as possible to reunite our family in a home of our own. i have the option to work 50+ hours a week at 14 dollars an hour and i will be doing so. My wife is going to work 4 nights on and than have 4 days off to help my mom in the next town with our daughter. We are staying with friends here in town to save up as much as we can as fast as we can to get this done. We estimate in 2 years we could have enough money to pay off all of our debts and have a nice down payment on the house we want. But that is two years of struggling to be able to see our daughter as much as possible while we work towards this. We can do it i have no doubts but we can never replace the time we are going to lose. I have worked my whole life and will continue to do so. I have also thrown many charity events when we were doing good financialy, such as local toy drives for Christmas and benefit concerts to raise money for the veterans of foreign wars and will do so again once we are back where we need to be in life. The money i have raised is so meager compared to what i am asking for but i promise to pay it forward in time. Our estimated goal is roughly $200,000 to take care of all debts and to own our own home. We are both working and will continue to do so but anything we can get to eliminate the time in between will be very very appreciated. Thank you for your time and i wish you all well regardless if you donate to us or not"

I am a student from Pakistan.

With my grades already achieved in IGCSE I could easily apply for a full scholarship in Pakistan but the problem due to the blasphemy law people of my religion are being persecuted therefore I wanted to apply somewhere abroad where these problems do not exist. My family has at this moment financial problems as our house has been burned down due to which I need financial help.I want to study further no matter what as I want to become a neurosurgeon and discover the true capability of the human brain. Another problem which I have is that my parents have made it clear that no matter where I go I have to go with my brother which by the way got the same grades I have, he is in the same year as I am and he wants to become a scientist to bring nanotechnology to a new level. I know both of us have quite big dreams but isn't life gifted to everyone in order to accomplish something breath taking.

I am a struggling artist who is going through some tough times. For a long time I had to sacrifice a lot and get by on very little. Things got very bad for me. I have used up my last resources. I can't create any art as I don't have the money for it. I can't afford to pay my rent or even buy food anymore.

What made it worse, was that 7 months ago I had to give up my place in the city as I could no longer afford it. I was forced to move miles away to a farming area as it was the only affordable place for me at the time. I had to choose between the city streets or a roof over my head, on a farm.

The problem is the farm is an hours walk to the nearest shop. So I have to walk for two hours, there and back, every time I need food and goods. At first it was no problem because I could still afford to place an advertisement for my art, on the net and news papers. I had a few customers in the beginning. I could still make some money but because the farm is so far out. It got more and more difficult getting people to come to the farm to look at my art.

It is so bad that I hardly make enough to put food on the table. I have tried everything I can to get out of trouble yet I seem to be slipping further and further. I have come to the last plan on my list of A SECOND MEANS OF INCOME. That is to start a Gardening Service. I have managed to obtain 2 very old lawnmowers, and some other garden tools just to get me started.

Yet my biggest problem is transport. I am calling on all the Good Samaritans to PLEASE help me get my own transport and put food on the table. When I start this business it will also help me to get my art to dealers and markets.

Any small donations will be gladly accepted and appreciated..

If you find it in your heart to help me I will be for ever grateful and I promise to pay it forward and help others in need.

Thank you so much. May the Creator bless you eternally.

Fathers For Their Son: Aaron G. Needs Help to Pay Legal Fees Associated with Fathers for Their Son

Here is a heartbreaking story from a father who wants any help to be able to pay the legal fees. Find a way to help him. Here is the story:

My name is Aaron Gasper, I’m 26 years old and I'm a loving father to three small children. My third child was born less than a week before creating this account. The oldest is a 3 1/2 year old girl who is not biologically mine, but I love her and care for her all the same. My first born, who is the reason I've made this account (Landen) is being taken from me by his Grandma on his mother’s side. She is attempting to take him from me after his mother Signed over custody, and has even asked her mom to stop this non-sense.

His mom is a heroin addict, and has been for quite some time now. Up until I started this fight for full custody of my son last October, I had him 50% of the time. The rest of the time he was with his grandma. Before I took legal action to gain custody of him from his unfit mother his Grandma continuously claimed that her daughter was in fact around to care for Landen under her supervision. Leading me to believe he was spending time with his mom while under supervision. After a length of time, and finding out months and months later that not only had his mom been getting arrested, but also had multiple warrants out for her arrest. After learning all this I finally decided to take action.

This entire situation has risen from his Grandmothers twisted view that Landen is her child. She believes she is his to raise because of the amount of time she has spent raising him (when I thought his mother was the one spending time with him), and hiding from me the fact that his mother was never home to raise him. Once she realized she was going to lose her ability to take care of my child, because the court verbally stated upon the next hearing custody it was going to be giving me custody based off the fact that his Mother is unfit. Even after that I asked her flatly if she was going to try and take my son from me, she lied and said no, and so I believed for a short amount of time my son would rightfully be coming home, and soon. Taking her at her word was one of the biggest mistakes I’ve ever made. Before the next hearing she changed her tune, and is now claiming that she's been the "sole caregiver" of my son since birth, and that I am in fact an unfit parent.

She currently has temp custody of my son, from filing an ex-parte (which is an emergency custody hearing). There’s no notice to these hearings and because of this I wasn’t there, nor was my lawyer there to defend me of her accusations on why she needs custody of my son. She’s made multiple false claims to gain temporary custody, and since no one was there to refute the claims she made she was given custody of my child and I’ve since only been allowed visitation (Every other weekend, and 1 night a week). I’m currently in debt $11,000 in total to various member of my family, and that number continues to raise almost daily.

Now for a little background on me…

Before having kids I was lost. I didn’t know what direction to head in, I couldn’t keep a job, and I certainly didn’t make the best choices. Having my son changed my life in the most profound way. I all the sudden knew what I needed to do, where I wanted to go, and I had finally figured out the kind of person I wanted to/needed to be. Ever since the birth of my son I spend every single day of my life striving to better myself, and improving the quality of life for my children. I went from nothing, no job, no money, no direction to where I am now.

I’m still struggling to get established, but I now have a car, a place of my own, a good job, not to mention the money (but barely) to keep all the cogs and gears in motion to keep my family happy, healthy, and fed J

Although I’ve never been in a better place, I still have a giant hole in my heart every single day that goes by that I don’t have my son. Instead of me being able to tuck him in every night, and read him a story, he’s sleeping on the couch at his “mammaws” because she’s too heavy to walk up and down the stairs to take him to his bedroom.

Before I go into any more detail on the living conditions my son endures every day let me say that his grandparents are in fact sweet people who really do mean well even though they are extremely misguided.

My ex’ parents are elderly. Her mother is in her late 50’s and morbidly obese. Her Father is in his early 70’s and is Senile. Yet these people think they are better caretakers than I can be for my own child…

My ex’s parents have buried me so deep in debt from stretching out this fight it feels like I’ll never dig myself out. Instead of constantly paying legal fees, I could easily have a new car paid for (Which I desperately need), or even a small down payment on a more appropriate house for my growing family. I’m here asking for help so I can have the right to raise my own child. The fact I even have to do so is absurd, and shows how broken fathers’ rights to their children are in most states.

Mother Wants Your Assistance To Pay Bills, Buy Groceries and Care for her Family

Here is what she wrote in her request.

"Hi

I've never done this before, this being going onto a cyber begging site before. I'm kind of stuck, well really stuck as it happens. I live with my partner of 6 years & my one year old son. We are in serious debt & I have at this current time only 1p left of my £2000 overdraft! My partner can be quite emotionally abusive & it is my dream someday that my son & I will be able to move out & live alone in peace but at the minute I am broke & couldn't afford the rent but I'm rambling a bit here!

A few days ago, it got to the stage where we were searching the house for penny's so that we could buy both a loaf of bread & milk at the same time instead of just choosing one to buy! I'm so depressed about our money situation that I just sit & cry when my son is napping & when I go to sleep at night. My partner & I are eating plain boiled pasta & rice at the minute as its all we can afford. Our son is well fed as any money we have buys him fruit & vegetables & healthy cheap food. Our electricity meter is making a beeping sound at the minute meaning that we will run out of electricity soon & the thought of it has me in tears. I don't know how I ended up in this mess! I worked full time in an office job until I was sacked for going on long term sick leave ( I suffer from severe depression & social anxiety) That was a few years ago & since then we have struggled so badly to buy groceries & pay the bills. We don't drink, smoke or ever go anywhere apart from to buy groceries when we can afford it & see family. If anyone can afford to give me any money, anything from even 10p to £1, you would be really helping me out a lot & I would be so so grateful. I don't want to be greedy & ask for big amounts as I know money is so hard to come by & I'm not even asking for money to leave my partner & his cruelty & disrespect. I'm just asking for a bit of help from someone who has the heart to help me put some electric in the meter & maybe a few groceries. This would tide me over until I get some money myself.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity. It means so much to me & my son. God bless x."

Stephanie's Hard Times

Please find a way to help this family. Here's Stephanie's story.

What does it take to get through hard times?

My family and I, husband 3 young children and pets, are trying to make it through right now. We have sold things, I've tried doing those surveys where you get 10 cents towards getting towards $1000 before you can redeem it, by which time I'm sure I would be 50 years old! Tomorrow we have to go to the food bank because we're down to eating Mr. Noodles and hotdogs, if we're lucky, for dinner. My husband and myself have stopped eating breakfast and lunch so our children can. However the bills will keep coming, and until I get a job, which I've applied to more than 20, we have no way of paying them. My husband has a summer semester of schooling so he won't be able to get a job. Both my husband and I are students, he is in college and will be finishing his program next year and I am in university and will get my BA in psychology next year. It's not like we're not trying, things have kept coming up that has demanded more money than we thought it would, vehicles breaking down, children losing and getting holes in their new snow outfits, life basically. Even now I found out that I will need to buy 2 tires soon for my car, if it keeps running as it's been having troubles starting up lately. I've never done this before, but we need money, we have rent covered and almost all insurance covered as well, but that leaves us with $20 for food and gas until I get a job and get paid from that. I am continuing to sell things such as movies and other items we can go without, and continuing to apply for jobs. Until then if we could get some help, we would be forever grateful! If there is anything we could do in return we would be glad to do it too! Please help my family!"

David M. Needs Your Help To Buy Medications, Pay for Utilities and Food

Please help this man who needs his medications. Due to change on healthcare laws, he is suffering... Here is his story:

"I am 49 years old and live on $710 a month in SSI--I became ill before I had paid the “full amount” into Social Security and so cannot collect Social Security Disability. I’ve managed to live on it for some time--sparsely, but adequately. I take pride in being able to live on so little--have no debts or outstanding bills. Due to recent changes in healthcare laws, however, I have lost the portion of my medical coverage which covers the cost of prescription drugs. My medications, which keep my chronic condition partially in check, cost nearly $600 per month (one of them, Lamictal, is $7.68 per pill!). Since January I have had to pay for them in cash or make other arrangements. Until now, I have been able to get my medications through patient assistance programs, samples provided by my doctors, and discounts offered by a very helpful pharmacy. I also received one month’s supply of medication through an area hospital’s “patient emergency fund”, which was a one-time only program. But I have now exhausted all of the resources available in my rural area. Until January of next year, when “Obamacare” begins to take effect, I must find a way to pay for my medications (even then, I do not know if prescription medication coverage will come back into effect). So right now I can buy my medications--or buy food. I can buy my medications--or pay my rent. I can buy my medications--and perhaps have enough left over to pay the utility bills. My needs are small. I live in a one-bedroom apartment, neither drink nor smoke nor use illicit drugs. I rely on friends for transportation--no bus or public transit here. It has always been difficult for me to ask for help, even from friends. Just asking for a ride seems like a major imposition to me and here I am about to ask for money from strangers. Forgive me--I feel that I have no other choice. I have said that my medications cost $600 per month. I believe that if I can come up with $500 per month I should be able to make it as I hope to be able to get a few samples and discounts in the coming year. Right now, however, I have nothing. Just a terrible looming expense on May 1st. Any help at all will be appreciated beyond words. You will be helping me to stay healthy. May God bless you for that.
