I’m reaching out to share a deeply personal journey and to ask for your support. I’m currently living with lupus, an autoimmune disease that has significantly impacted my health — especially my kidneys. Recently, my condition has required treatments and medications that aren’t fully covered by insurance, placing a financial strain on both me and my family.

Managing this illness comes with ongoing and often overwhelming costs — from medications and lab work to doctor visits and transportation. That’s why I’ve created this fund: to help cover these essential medical expenses and maintain my health and independence.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to stability and healing. If you’re unable to give, simply sharing this message means just as much. Thank you for taking the time to read, for caring, and for standing with me in this fight.

 

Sending love and gratitude!

I am no good with words, and find it hard to put my thoughts into an understandable, coherant sentance, but here goes.

I have been struggling with mental health issues for most of my life. Went to therapy for a couple years before I turned 18, and couldn’t afford it without the state footing the bill. Used what I learned to try my best and live a happy life. And it worked for a while.

The next 5-10 years were decent. Only occasionally had dark thoughts, or a mental break. And had people I could rely on in those situations. People I could call, text, or drive and see that had been through the darkness and could help me see the light. Most of those people are gone now. Either ended it themselves, turned to drugs, or passed due to old age. I am left alone dealing with this, and old tools no longer help.

Fastforward to today, and I have suicidal thoughts daily. No matter what goes on in my life, good or bad, my mind makes me think I am not good enough. That the world is better off without me in it, and I hate myself more and more because of that. I can smile and laugh in public, or with friends, but I know it’s fake. A few of the people I hang out with regularly know it is too. One asked “How are you always so happy? Nothing ever seems to get to you? How do you do it?” And I had to tell him that it’s because it’s all fake. Told him I had been depressed since I was 12 and that I would rather those around me laugh and smile then be sad, or pity me, so I mask my thoughts with jokes and smiles. We stopped talking and hanging out after that. I miss him. I try to change my thinking, to motivate myself to seek help, but theres a voice in the back of my mind telling me that there is no use. No one will help me, and I should just end it.

I have been to a few free therapy sessions over the last couple years, and they help, but it’s like painting over a rust spot. Looks great from a distance, but falls apart under inspection. My mental health is affecting my work, to the point that I just want to lay in bed all day and cry.

I just want to be able to be the happy guy I used to be. To be the man I need to be for my family.

Hello,

I am in need of financial help due to having had high medical costs in 2024 and continuing high medical costs this year.

I currently owe $10,000 most of which is due to hospital stays that were expensive even with insurance and expensive medical treatments and medications.

At this time I can not work due to my disabilities but my goal is to improve my health to where I can work in the future. This means that I have to continue to spend what little money I have leftover in my savings on current and future medical costs making it impossible for me to pay off the debt.

I’m quite worried that the debt could go to collections soon and I have been trying to pay it off but it’s incredibly hard to do so with my continuing medical costs.

Any donations would be greatly appreciated and incredibly helpful.

“Sudden health crisis a shocking wake up call about the danger of unregulated tattoos” we all know that tattoos are a popular form of expression and art but what many people don’t realize is that they can also post serious health risk. Just asked Howard a 61-year-old man who recently discovered that his love for tattoos has led to a life-threatening condition. It all started when Howard went to get a tattoo, something he had done multiple times . However, this time was different. Three months ago he found out that he has cirrhosis of the liver stage 4 and hepatitis C, due to unsanitary practices at the tattoo studio and if that wasn’t enough doctors also discovered that he has esophageal and stomach varices and has heptaceellular carcinoma cancer stage 2 all from that one tattoo. But here’s the kicker- Howard had no idea about any of this until his recent hospitalization. Despite doctors running tests and discovering these conditions , no one bothered to inform him. Now,  he has left with a grim reality -too sick to work, no income, and a pile of medical bills that he cannot afford to pay.  At 61 Howard should be enjoying his golden years, not worrying about how he will pay rent , buy groceries or cover medical expenses. It’s a shocking and unexpected turn of events and it’s left Howard in a State of shock and desperation. So why are we sharing Howard story because it’s accountability tale that highlights the importance of the tattoo industry. While there are strict health and safety standards for licensed tattoo artist, there is still a vast number of unregulated and unlicensed tattoo studios out there and as Howard’s case shows, the consequences can be deadly. But Howard’s story is not all doom and gloom it’s also a call to action for all of us to step up and help. As a community we can come together to support Howard in his time of need. Whether it’s through donations, spreading the word, or simply offering words of encouragement. We can make a difference in Howard’s life.  And let’s not forget the bigger picture- raising awareness about the importance of regulation in the tattoo industry. As consumers , we have the power to demand stricter laws and regulations to protect ourselves and others from harmful and unsanitary practices. Let’s use our voices to bring about change and prevent more cases like Howard’s from happening. In conclusion,  Howard story is a wake-up call for all of us. It’s time to take a stand and demand better standards for the tattoo industry. But more importantly it’s time to come together and help Howard in his time of need. We can all make a difference and show Howard that he is not alone in this battle. After all, the golden years should be filled with joy and happiness. Not health crisis and financial struggles. Let’s make sure Howard’s story has a happy ending. We are trying to raise 20,000 plus for Howard.        PayPal.me/HowardAtkinson

*The Cracks in Our Perfect Facade*

We were the couple everyone envied. Our wedding is just months away, and our friends and family can’t stop raving about our love. But behind closed doors, reality is unraveling.   At first, it was just a glass of wine after work. Then it became two, sometimes three. I’d brush it off as stress relief, but deep down, I knew it isn’t just that. My fiancé, Alex, has started using harder substances to cope with the pressure of our upcoming wedding and the expectations that come with it.              I have tried to be supportive, to be the rock she needs, but I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall. Denial, anger, and frustration is starting  to consumed me. Our relationship has started to fray at the edges. Last week I found Alex passed out on the couch, an empty pill bottle beside her. That’s when I realized we need help. I couldn’t lose the love of my life to addiction. With tears streaming down my face, I convinced Alex to seek rehab. It wasn’t easy, but I knew it is necessary. The road to recovery will be long and arduous, but I’m willing to stand by her, even if it means postponing our wedding.  I feel a mix of emotions: sadness, relief, and hope. Our love is worth fighting for, and I know that together, we can overcome this. The journey ahead won’t be easy, but we are ready to face it head-on, side by side with the person I love. Our love story isn’t ending; it is just beginning a new chapter, one of hope, healing, growth, and redemption. Please help us!

My name is Wisdom Walamu, and today I’m writing with a heart full of love, fear, and hope. I never thought I’d find myself in this position asking the kindness of strangers to help save the most important person in my life. But here I am, not as a man too proud to beg, but as a husband and a soon-to-be father who is terrified of losing the woman who means everything to him.

My wife, Joy, is expecting our baby boy. What should be the happiest time of our lives has become a time filled with fear and desperation. She needs an urgent Cesarean section (C-section) surgery, and we simply cannot afford it.

We’ve done everything we can. We’ve stretched every dollar, knocked on every door, and tried every possible option. But the truth is we are falling short. And the clock is ticking.

A Love Story Worth Fighting For

Let me tell you a little about her about the woman who changed my life. We met in the most ordinary way, but what blossomed was anything but ordinary. She is kind beyond words, strong beyond belief, and has carried this pregnancy with so much grace despite the challenges. Even when she was in pain, she smiled. Even when she was scared, she reassured me.

From the moment we found out we were going to be parents, she lit up in a way I’d never seen before. She talked to our baby every night. She would place my hand on her belly and say, “Feel him? He’s dancing for us.” Her love for our son is already boundless. I see it in the way she prepares his tiny clothes, in the way she whispers lullabies before he’s even born.

But the last few weeks have been hard. Her doctor told us that due to complications, a natural birth is too risky. A C-section is the only safe option for both her and the baby. Without it, her life and our son’s are in danger.

The Reality We’re Facing

We live in a place where healthcare isn’t always accessible to those who need it most. We don’t have insurance that covers this kind of emergency, and the cost of the surgery is far beyond what we can manage. We’re not asking for luxury or comfort we’re asking for a chance. A chance to bring our baby into the world safely. A chance to keep the woman I love alive.

Every day that passes without the surgery adds to the risk. Her condition is growing more complicated. The doctor has urged us to schedule the C-section as soon as possible. But all we can do now is wait and hope and pray that help comes in time.

Why I’m Reaching Out

I never imagined I’d be starting a fundraiser for something so critical, so intimate. But I’ve learned that pride doesn’t matter when the person you love is in danger. All that matters is getting her the help she needs.

We’re not looking for a miracle we’re just looking for kindness. Your donation, no matter how small, brings us closer to the day I can hold both of them my wife and my son safe in my arms. It brings us closer to life instead of loss.

I think about what could happen if we don’t raise enough in time. I try not to, but it haunts me. I imagine a future without her laugh, her warmth, her love. And I can’t bear it. She’s not just my wife she’s my best friend, my strength, my world.

She has dreams too. She wants to be the kind of mom who packs school lunches, who cheers the loudest at football games, who stays up late helping with homework. She wants to watch our son grow, to see who he becomes. She deserves that. They deserve that.

How You Can Help

If you’ve ever loved someone so much it scared you if you’ve ever looked into someone’s eyes and seen your whole future then you know what I’m feeling right now. You know what it means to want to fight the whole world just to keep them safe.

I’m not a writer, I’m not a public speaker—I’m just a man in love, trying to protect his family. And right now, we need help. We need people to care. We need people like you.

Your donation will go directly to covering the cost of her C-section surgery. Every single cent will be used to bring our son into this world safely and to make sure my wife survives this birth. Every share, every message, every act of support means more than I can put into words.

I know times are hard for many, and asking for help isn’t easy. But if you’ve read this far, thank you. Thank you for taking the time to hear our story. Thank you for seeing us, even if we’re strangers. And thank you, from the depths of my heart, if you’re able to help.

One Last Wish

All I want is to hear my baby cry for the first time and to see her smile when she holds him. All I want is to tell her, “You did it. You’re safe. He’s safe. We’re a family.”

Please help me make that happen.

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your help. My 5-year-old grandson has epilepsy, and while we are grateful for the medicine that has helped reduce his seizures, it’s now causing serious damage to his liver. We live in Indiana and have Medicade, but the care he truly needs isn’t covered. After researching alternative options, we believe CBD oil treatment in Michigan offers hope — a chance at fewer seizures and a healthier, happier life. But the treatment is all out-of-pocket, and we simply can’t afford it on our own.

My daughter and I are doing everything we can to support him, but our financial situation is stretched beyond its limit. On top of this, I’m also the primary caregiver for my 75-year-old father, who is battling leukemia. Between doctor visits, medications, and trying to keep up with daily living expenses, we have nothing extra left — not even for something as important as giving my grandson a chance at better health.

This little boy deserves a shot at a normal childhood. He wants to run and play like other kids, but his condition and the side effects of the current medication hold him back. We’re hopeful that CBD oil treatment can make a difference — we’ve seen stories of children just like him who are now thriving thanks to this alternative approach.

If you can help in any way, big or small, we would be forever grateful. Every dollar raised will go toward travel, consultation, and treatment costs in Michigan. Your support could give my grandson the chance to live without pain and constant fear of seizures — and give our family a bit of relief during a time that has been so difficult.

Thank you for reading our story, and thank you for caring.

With gratitude,
Lori B

I’m a 59 year old with Lupus and had to retire from nursing because of it 2 years ago. I have been in and out of the hospital since 2022. The hospital gave me a discount for financial assistance but I am left with a remainder of $3764.09.  I’m in desperate need for it or any parts of it. I am behind in my regular bills trying to keep up and I am without family to ask for help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I was the victim (survivor) of a kidnapping/sexual assault. It went to trial. I learned over the course of the investigation that it was a coworker who had used drugs to incapacitate me at a company bowling league and steal my vehicle. After the assault, he wrapped my vehicle around a pole, sending me into the windshield and fled the scene on foot, leaving me for dead. I remembered nothing of the prior few days. I suffered a concussion, lost my vehicle, and subsequently my job when my boss found out his friend (the offender) was in danger of prosecution. The jury concluded that even though he was determined to have been there, he was only guilty of failure to render aid and responsible for monetary compensation for the clothes he ripped off, not the assault. I have medical bills and extensive trauma. Just in need of help…
