Dear Family, Friends, and Kindhearted Supporters,

I am reaching out with humility and hope to ask for financial support during one of the most difficult seasons of my life. Sharing my story is not easy, but I believe that being honest about my struggles may help others understand why I am asking for help.

Ever since I was born, life has presented me with challenges. I was born with a condition called congenital bilateral clubfoot, which affected both of my feet. Before I was even one year old, I had to undergo surgeries because I was unable to walk normally. My family eventually left our home country in search of better medical care and opportunities for my future.

As a child, I also experienced years of sexual abuse by a female and male cousin. The abuse began when I was six years old and continued until I was a teenager, when I finally found the strength to end it. These experiences deeply affected me, and I have spent much of my life trying to heal while continuing to move forward.

Growing up with my foot condition also made it difficult for me to feel accepted. I often felt different and struggled with rejection. I was once engaged, but the relationship ended on the very day I was supposed to buy my wedding dress. Later, I met someone I believed truly accepted me for who I was. Sadly, that relationship became another painful chapter in my life.

When I met the father of my children, I had a full-time job and had earned my bachelor’s degree. Over time, however, the relationship became abusive. He physically abused me multiple times, including while I was pregnant with our first daughter. He damaged my credit, was unfaithful, and eventually threatened to put me and our child out on the streets while I was pregnant with our second daughter.

For the safety of myself and my children, I had to obtain an order of protection. On the day he learned that I was going to be induced to give birth to our second daughter, he left for another state with his new girlfriend. Since then, he has not seen his daughters or spoken to them.

The physical challenges of pregnancy worsened my foot condition. I eventually needed reconstructive ankle surgery on my left foot. Recovering while caring for two young children was extremely difficult, but I continued doing everything I could to provide them with a safe and loving home.

After approximately a year of recovery, I was finally able to return to work part-time so that I could also care for my children. Although I am grateful that I can work, being the only provider for two children while managing my medical needs and everyday expenses has been overwhelming. I am doing my best, but there are times when my income is simply not enough to cover everything we need.

I am asking for help with basic necessities such as rent, utilities, groceries, transportation, medical expenses, and other costs involved in raising my children. Any amount, no matter how small, would make a meaningful difference in our lives. If you are unable to donate, sharing this letter or keeping my family in your thoughts and prayers would also mean so much to me.

I am not asking for a handout because I do not want to work. I am asking because I have worked hard, survived painful experiences, pursued my education, raised my children, and continued fighting even when life felt impossible. I simply need support while I rebuild our lives and work toward a more stable future.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering helping my family. Your kindness, generosity, and compassion would give us hope and remind us that we are not alone.

With sincere gratitude,

Hello, I have been dealing with recurrent pregnancy loss for the past year and a half, and the experience has taken a serious toll on me physically, mentally, and financially. I have had five miscarriages in total, including four within the past year. Each loss has been painful in its own way, and the repeated appointments, recovery, stress, and grief have made it hard to keep up with everyday life.

After my most recent miscarriage, I had to quit my job. The physical pain was intense, but the emotional impact was just as difficult. I was struggling to function and could not keep up with work while trying to recover. I went without a job for a couple of months, and during that time, I relied on loans and side work, including DoorDash, to cover basic expenses. Those choices helped us get through the moment, but they also left us with more debt and bills to repay.

I now have a new job scheduled to start, and I am grateful to have work again. Even so, we have fallen behind financially, and it has been hard to catch up while dealing with rent, household bills, loan payments, and the costs connected to my miscarriages. Our rent and monthly bills are about $2,000, which does not include the money we still owe or the everyday expenses we need to manage.

After so many losses, I was finally referred to a specialist who may help us understand what has been happening. The appointment is coming up in a couple of days, and it costs $350. I really do not want to miss this visit because it could be an important step toward finding answers and receiving the care I need. After waiting so long for a referral, missing the appointment because of money would be heartbreaking.

Any amount of help would make a real difference right now. It would help cover the specialist appointment, keep us closer to paying our rent and bills, and give us some room to recover from the debt we have taken on. Thank you so much for reading, sharing, or helping in any way. Every bit of support means more than I can explain. ❤️

Get a Life-Saving CRT Implant to Overcome Heart & Kidney Failure

​Dear Friends, Family, and Community,

​If you’ve seen a heart failure medication commercial on TV, I’m basically on it. I take over 12 different medications every day just to keep my heart pumping.

​Two years ago, at age 38, my life was completely turned upside down when I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure—with an Ejection Fraction (EF) of just 20 to 25%—and pulmonary embolisms. Because of my condition, I became completely disabled. However, due to missed work credits during the pandemic, I only qualified for SSI, leaving me to survive on just $665 a month. It has been a rough, grueling two years.

​The New Challenge: Kidney Failure & The CRT Solution

​Two weeks ago, I was back in the hospital. The doctors broke the news that my kidneys are now beginning to fail—a direct side effect of the high volume of heart medications required to keep me alive. I am stuck in a catch-22: I need the meds for my heart, but the meds are hurting my kidneys.

​There is a way forward. Extensive research and medical consultation point to a device called a Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) implant.

​Up to 75% of patients who receive a CRT device improve by two full heart failure stages.

​Crucially, this device helps many patients significantly reduce their daily medications, protecting my kidneys and giving my body a real chance to heal.

​Why I Am Asking For Your Help

​If I get this device, my goal is clear: I want my life back. I want to regain my physical strength, get off SSI, and go back to work.

​Unfortunately, my insurance has denied coverage for the implant, leaving me with an impossible wall to climb. I am trying to raise $50,000 to directly cover the cost of the CRT device and the life-changing operation to place it.

​Asking for money is not something I ever wanted to do, but this implant is my bridge to survival and independence. My cash app is $adrew2966

Good Afternoon! I hope You’re doing well. I am a single Mother who is also helping out with My Grandchildren. I’m reaching out because I am facing unexpected financial difficulty due to the rising cost of life expenses. I’ve already adjusted My budget, but I still need some temporary financial support. I’m requesting $10,000 to help cover medical bills & taxes owed. If You’re able to assist, I would be extremely grateful. Thank You for considering My request.

Let me tell you, sudden medical bills can take out anyone, including medical professionals.

Award winning, “friendliest nurse” working with end of life patients and their families every day. Recently got a positive cancer diagnosis and need to take time off work for surgery and recovery. I just switched companies late last year, and thus, I am not eligible for FMLA. And in NYC, disability pays a measley $170 a week. That’s right, look it up! The amount has not been updated since 1983. You read that right, over 40 years ago.  As you can imagine, that can’t cover anyone’s rent let alone bills or groceries.

Having recently gotten divorced (it’s been a hell of a year), I’m languishing in my tiny studio, mining the Internet for any ideas since I’m unable to work.

Happy to share medical forms, disability paperwork, heck even nursing and hospice knowledge!

If you’ve ever been impacted by a kind nurse, please consider helping me (or another nurse), as we try to stay afloat too. Many thanks for your kindness and caring.

Hi, I am a disabled stay-at-home mom who takes care of my 22-year-old son, who is autistic. Our rock, my husband, was recently diagnosed with Stage IV Small Intestine Metastatic Cancer. After not feeling well for a couple of years and being diagnosed with Chronic COPD, we went to several Doctors for different problems that kept recurring. Nothing was ever found to be wrong, even though several tests had been done. After 2 years of going to different specialists and missing a lot of work, we had to go to the ER one night because he was in a lot of pain, having difficulty breathing, and couldn’t eat without vomiting. Once we were there, they ran several tests, X-rays, bloodwork, and finally a CT scan. When the Doctor came back in, he told us they were transferring us to a different hospital because they had found several lesions in his lungs, liver, and spleen. There was also an obstruction in his lower intestines. That’s when everything started to crash around us. We didn’t know exactly what was going on, but we knew what it was leading to. We never could have imagined it would be so bad.

Once he was admitted to the hospital, they did biopsies and other tests. The main problem they were concerned with was the obstruction in his small intestines. They were waiting for test results before doing surgery. We were in the hospital for a week before all the results came back. At that time, surgery was decided against because the obstruction in his small intestines was a tumor. The other lesions in his liver, lungs, and spleen were all cancerous. The tumor in his intestines was metastatic and had gone to his liver and into his bloodstream. By being in his bloodstream, the cancer spread to his lungs and spleen. It is inoperable because it’s in his bloodstream, meaning it will just spread to other places in his body. He is now receiving chemo to try to shrink the cancer cells and slow down the progression.

We are seeking help for medical bills, alternative treatments, and everyday bills. My husband has worked for the state for 30 years and is not quite eligible for full retirement. Because of the nature of the job, he can’t go back to work either because of the chemo. We don’t know how much longer he has, but we are hoping that by finding an alternative treatment, it can prolong his life for many years to come. We have been together for 25 years and have 4 wonderful children and 3 grandchildren. He is my world, my everything, my love, and my life. Any help is deeply appreciated.

Thank you for your time,

Jamie

Hi everyone!

In the last few months I have been having trouble breathing. I can’t walk upstairs to brush my teeth without stopping to catch my breath. I am a cook and had to leave my job because of this. On my last day I was having trouble breathing, my legs felt like they were going to give out and I got sick. I went to the emergency room.  I have been there twice. I am currently seeing a pulmonary doctor and a cardiologist to figure out what is wrong.  I have to wait for insurance approval for a ct chest scan for lung cancer and an echocardiogram. In the meantime I can’t work.  I am looking for an office job but so far with my work history I haven’t had any luck. I would truly appreciate any help you can provide. I need about $5000 to get through the next few months. So when they figure out what is wrong and I get back to work and pay it forward.  Thank you!

Thomas’s life changed forever after he was violently assaulted and attacked by the assailants’ dogs, suffering multiple severe bite wounds to his left leg. What began as a traumatic attack quickly turned into a medical nightmare.

His wounds did not heal properly and developed several serious infections. Despite making four separate emergency room visits, Thomas’s condition continued to worsen before he finally received the emergency treatment he desperately needed. Doctors discovered black, dead tissue surrounding the wound and signs of gangrene beginning to develop. He underwent painful procedures to remove the damaged tissue and required a wound vacuum (wound vac) to help save his leg and fight the infection.

Today, Thomas continues to suffer from severe nerve damage, chronic pain, limited mobility, and ongoing complications from the attack. He now attends treatment and physical therapy for pain management and strengthening while facing the heartbreaking reality that he may never walk the same again.

Even through the pain, fear, and uncertainty, Thomas keeps pushing forward for one reason — his 8-month-old son, Alarick.

Thomas’s greatest goal is simply to be the father his son deserves. He wants to be able to pick up his baby boy, play with him, provide for him, and continue raising him despite this devastating setback. Alarick is Thomas’s motivation every single day to keep fighting.

Unfortunately, this tragedy has destroyed the financial stability Thomas worked so hard to build as a single father. Because of his injuries and ongoing treatment, he was placed on a leave of absence without pay and still has not been able to return to work. Over the last two months, he has exhausted his savings just trying to survive and keep a roof over their heads.

Thomas is now facing:

• Over $8,000 in medical bills not covered by insurance

• Falling behind on rent and utilities

• Ongoing treatment and physical therapy expenses

• The daily costs of caring for his infant son, including food, diapers, clothing, and other essentials

No father deserves to live with the fear of being unable to provide for his child because of a disability caused by a violent attack. Thomas fought hard to be present in his son’s life, and now he is fighting just as hard to recover and stand tall again for Alarick.

Any donation, no matter how small, will directly help Thomas and his son stay afloat during this incredibly difficult chapter. If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser and keeping them in your thoughts and prayers would mean more than words can express.

Please help Thomas get back on his feet so he can continue being the loving and dedicated father his amazing baby boy deserves.

Hello, I am a 37 year old single mother of 2. I was born with one kidney and at the age of 28, it failed and I was placed on dialysis for 3-4 days a week for nearly 5 hours. Due to treatments taking up 80% of my time, I am unable to work so I have to try and support my children and myself on a very minimal fixed income. I am asking for help with paying for my medicine and my medical bills. This would help take a huge stress off my children and myself and hopefully with your donations, I’ll have a little bit of extra money from my monthly income to get my children new clothes and shoes. Anything will help and be the biggest blessing not only for me but for my kids too. Thank you and God bless.

Thank you again so much!!!

I am writing this with intention and honesty, not from a place of helplessness, but from a place of accountability and effort. Over the past few years, I have navigated a series of significant challenges while continuing to work, care for my children, and build stability in my life.

I am a single mother with no financial support, responsible for both the emotional and financial well-being of my children. During this time, I made the difficult but necessary decision to leave an unsafe living situation and purchase a home to create a stable and secure environment for my family. While this was the right decision, it came with substantial financial strain and ongoing responsibilities.

At the same time, I have faced unexpected medical expenses that have added up quickly. I experienced multiple dental issues, including crowns breaking, which required urgent and costly treatment. In addition, I suffered an ACL injury that required physical therapy and time away from work. Because my income is directly tied to my ability to work, this time off was unpaid, creating an immediate financial gap while medical expenses continued to accumulate.

Despite these setbacks, I have remained committed to moving forward responsibly. I have continued working, managing my household, and prioritizing my children’s needs. I have not stopped trying to improve my situation, reduce expenses, and regain financial footing. However, the combination of medical bills, recovery time, and the costs associated with maintaining a household on a single income has made it difficult to fully catch up.

I am not asking for help to avoid responsibility. I am asking for support to help bridge a difficult period so I can continue building stability. Any assistance would go directly toward outstanding medical bills and essential living expenses as I continue to recover financially and physically.

I understand that many people are facing their own challenges, and I do not take this request lightly. If you are able to contribute in any way, I am deeply grateful. If not, I still appreciate you taking the time to read my story.
