I’m a recovering addict with a Little over two years clean I’m 47 years old and I’ve struggled with addiction, depression, and anxiety most of my life. I have four adult children and 8 beautiful grandchildren after my last two grandchildren were born a little over two years ago I decided that I didn’t want to miss anymore of their life or mine.  After getting clean I was diagnosed with adult ADHD and realized that I had gone my entire life misdiagnosed and that answered every question I have ever had about my relationships and my inability to cope in society. I want a life with my grandkids and my dog Penelope. I’ve struggled with homelessness since my dad had a stroke and I lost the house that was in his name, but experiencing homelessness during recovery is still better than any day in active addiction. I love spending time with my grandchildren, but it’s really difficult homeless.  I was blessed to be able to start a small business out of the shop in the back of my ex-husband‘s house making home decor items and taking  to the trade day to sell. It is coming along ok but it’s never enough to cover food, shelter, transportation and every day expenses, much less am I able to save enough to get a car or a place to live.  I need a vehicle to be able to my take my decor items back-and-forth to the trade day as well as better equipment be able to increase my inventory.  I love my life today and I know that with the help of my recovery family as well as counseling and tools to help me get through the new ADHD diagnosis I can have a good life and show my grandchildren and my children that you can turn yourself around and make a better life for yourself at any time. I would love to be able to build one of those tiny homes on the small piece of land with a little shop for my business and a little bit of a yard for my grandchildren and my dog Penelope to play that with. That and  a van or truck I would be able to Have a life that I’ve only dreamed of. I could only imagine what it would be like if I was able to just get my head above water. I realize I’ve made mistakes and life is about being able to get up and brush yourself off and move on  And I will do this. I just need help  to get to other side of this and be safe and not on the street. Any help you could give me would not be in pain. I will pay this forward as soon as I can. Thank you for helping me or any anyone else in need .
You are truly a blessing. Any amount of help towards a shelter and a vehicle would be amazing.

Dear Friends,

I am reaching out with a heart full of humility. Throughout my life, I’ve been the one offering support, care, and a helping hand to others. I’ve built businesses, mentored women, and opened my home to those in need. But today, I find myself in a position where I have no choice but to ask for help.

A Struggle with Chronic Illness and Setbacks

My journey through health challenges began in 1999 when I woke up paralyzed from the neck down, leading to diagnoses of Lupus, Fibromyalgia, and RA. Despite these conditions, I rebuilt my life and career, reducing my medications from 26 to just 2 through determination and excellent medical care.

Despite these challenges, I start a home improvement business and went back to school to obtain my MFA in interior design and I worked hard to build a life and a coaching business aimed at helping other women overcome trauma and take control of their health and wellness. However, my health has continued to decline, and in 2021, I was forced to face a series of devastating blows.

Since 2021, I’ve faced a cascade of devastating setbacks:

• December 2021: Underwent major back surgery
• Throughout 2022: Worked 7 days a week between my business and a new job as an interior designer
• December 2022: Suffered a severe muscle spasm requiring ambulance transport and two weeks of bedrest
• Early 2023: Continued working through pain while managing a home sale and move
• May 2023: Finally received MRI revealing a torn meniscus after months of physical therapy
• August 2023: Underwent knee surgery, but complications arose within 5 weeks
• November 2023: Second MRI showed another torn meniscus and complete loss of cartilage
• February 2024: Underwent total knee replacement
• April 2024: Required manipulation surgery due to excessive swelling and complications

Throughout this period, I’ve faced:

• Exhaustion of all short-term disability and medical leave
• Inability to continue working due to severe pain and mobility issues
• Mounting medical expenses and co-pays
• Failed attempts at debt resolution programs
• Unsuccessful investments in work-from-home opportunities while trying to maintain income
• Medication side effects that have left me in a cognitive fog

The compounded effect of these health crises has not only affected my physical well-being but has completely derailed my financial stability and ability to maintain my business and coaching practice.

Current Situation

• $70,000 in credit card debt accumulated from medical expenses and basic needs
• $65,000 in tax obligations from selling our rental property to downsize
• Vehicle broken down since May 2023
• Unable to work due to ongoing recovery and physical therapy
• Invested $14,000 into business opportunities and coaching programs trying to rebuild, but health complications prevented progress

My Goal

I’m seeking $160,000 to:

• Clear medical-related debt
• Handle tax obligations
• Restart my business helping other chronic illness survivors
• Cover essential therapy to complete my recovery

I’ve tried everything to keep going: taking on extra jobs, asking for hardship assistance, and even working through pain. But the reality is that I’m at a breaking point. My bills are overwhelming, and I’m struggling to continue paying for the basics.

I have always been a fighter, and I know that with the right support, I can rise from this and continue to serve and help others. I am asking for your generosity so I can rebuild and give back to those in need, as I have done for so many years.

Why Help – Your Support Would Mean Everything

Throughout my life, I’ve:

• Served our country in the military
• Provided shelter to women and children in crisis
• I reduced my medications from 26 to 2 through grit & determination
• Served on community boards and committees
• Never stopped fighting to give back to others

Even now, my goal isn’t just to recover financially – it’s to rebuild my coaching business so I can help other women navigate their health challenges and find joy in their lives again.

A Personal Note

Asking for help isn’t easy for me. I’ve always been the one others lean on. But I’ve learned that sometimes the strongest thing we can do is acknowledge when we need support. Any assistance, no matter the size, will help me get back to serving others and making a difference in my community.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and consider helping.

Greetings and thank you for your large and kind heart.

I’m seeking the indulgence of the kind hearted here for financial assistance and to save me from drowning in debt. I’m an immigrant and have an aged widowed mother back in my country. I was employed until early this year when I lost my job. My search for another job is to no avail while I’ve been living on my little savings but now depleted. I’m in this ugly situation and I’ve nowhere or no one else to turn to. I’ve always been the -go-to-for help kind of person to many others for both emotional and financial support in my little means. Sadly, currently I have rent, bills (phone, internet), medications, credit card, feeding expenses of about $1,800 monthly to settle. However, right now I am really stressed out and losing sleep over the financial challenge and demands without knowing where to get money to sort these out and sustain me and my senior – mother pending when I get a job.

I  had been with my last employer for about 6 years aside from my over 10 years of experience in the banking industry back in my country. I have a strong track record of loyalty, dedication and hard work in all employment , I have been on job search; applied to numerous positions and organizations with a few interviews but yet to receive any offers. My financial situation is becoming increasingly worrisome, as my savings have been depleted, and monthly bills of about $1,800 are accumulating rapidly.

Hence, my reason for reaching out to the kind hearted here to get some urgent financial support to help cover immediate expenses. I’m working relentlessly on getting a job and to be back on my feet while at this moment, I can get some help to pull through.

Thank you and stay blessed as I look forward to a favourable and prompt response.

Hi I am a 3 time cancer survivor who was currently diagnosed with severe asthma and copd. Even with insurance my medical bills have piled up and my husband can’t even afford to take off and take care of me and the kids. We recently had our 15 year old autistic daughter move out into a group home and before we had to make that decision she tore up our house busting holes in the wall and teared up furniture. Our driveway is also a mess with potholes all in it and our porch is falling apart. My husband will have his job shut down for two weeks around Christmas and we won’t have money for bills or food because had to use all his vacation time and paid time off on several of my health issues including knee surgery last December. Please any help would be appreciated. We still have a 10 and 12 year old at home we can’t even afford Christmas presents for.

Currently on my neighbor’s couch but have been told that my welcome is wearing out! I am in desperate need of home to call my own. I would like to buy one of those homes that Home Depot & Lowe’s are selling & eventually get a container for rainwater & purchase solar panels for energy. With this help I also want to buy a small car, once I have a home, I will go get my 80-year-old mother living in Texas. She has breast cancer & will need care for her remaining years. I plan to establish my own company in translating/Interpreting English oral text to Spanish & vice versa. Have an online web page so I can tutor & provide classes. This will allow me to wk from home while I care for my mother. I can provide proof if that is needed. This is my first time ever asking for monetary help. May you have blessings in abundance for helping me out.
