I have struggled with mental illness for years. I tried many things to help. Vitamins, supplements, therapy, psychiatrists, brain scans, and medicine. I am finally getting better, but I am in a lot of debt. About $12,000.00. I would appreciate any help anyone would give, as this is very stressful and I may have to stop treatment if I can’t pay this off. I am 21.

Thanks!

I wish we still looked like this. This was the last good picture of us I have before she started falling victim to Early Onset Dementia. When I say early, I mean early. She’s had it now for between 3 and 4 years. I’m all she has, I have no siblings and my father ran out on her (cheated) after 35 years when he saw her starting to change. I unfortunately haven’t been able to do what I feel like I should for her because I suffer from Major Depressive Disorder. I have now for 12 years. I’ve never in my life asked for help, even from friends or my own Father or Mother. I’m in a spot where I don’t feel like I can go on anymore. Being a caregiver for someone going through this all by yourself isn’t something I would wish on anyone. Add to that the fact that I struggle to get through each day because of my depression… It’s just too overwhelming. I’m only 15-18 months from a degree in Radiation/Oncology, I’m not some loser, some suck on society… I’m just in the worst place I’ve ever been in my life, a place that I never envisioned… I love my Mother, and I want to be able to set her up with care to where I can try and get the proper help I need for my depression. I truly feel like if I can get her the help (security) of being taken care of, even for 30-60 days… Maybe I could try and get the help I need so that I could get back into college, and make the grades I did before, honor her and myself properly by seeing it through. I know that if I can get better, I can better serve her and by finishing school I can be in a position to take care of her for the final few years of her life. I don’t want a million dollars, I honestly don’t know why I’m here or how much would help… I just felt a pull to do this and I know in my heart that anything that anyone out there who has the resources could do would be met with gratitude and a promise that I would make sure to pay it forward to someone else in need once I’m better and Mom is taken care of. Mom is my best friend, and seeing her declining day after day after day has been the single most devastating thing to ever happen to me… I know that I’m pre-disposed to this depression, but everything that has transpired over the course of the last 5 years has just sent it into overdrive. I need MAJOR help, my mom needs MAJOR help. Please, if you are someone out there who is lucky enough to be in a position to give, to help… Someone who maybe still has their loved ones around in full capacity, please help us, and please above that even, be thankful for what you have and don’t take even a day for granted. I swear to you I will pay this forward, and help as many people as I can when/if I can overcome this. Unfortunately, this has been going on (my batte) for over 3 years now and I’m tired. I just want to give up, give in. I hate to type/say these words because I was raised to always fight and overcome… I just don’t have much time left sadly is what I feel. Peace and Love to you all, anyone who took the time to read this novel, God bless even for just that.

Hi. My name is Mina, and I need help.

I’m struggling with anxiety and depression, and I am being sent to St. Vincent’s to help treat it. The trouble is, I can’t afford the hospital bill, so I’m between a rock and a hard place. I ideally would like around $5000 to soften the blow. This is my first time begging for money like this, so if there’s any information I’m supposed to provide, please let me know.

My PayPal link will be down below.

Thank you for reading.

Hello, my name is David Kim I am 21 years old. I have two older brothers the oldest is 27 and the middle child is 22. The oldest dropped out of high school and the middle child dropped out of college last year. Neither of them has a job and both are relying on my single mother who is working for the US army. My father is very abusive, and I have not seen him for many years. He smashed the trunk door over my mother head when they were married in front of us leaving her there on the driveway bleed from her head and refused to let her go to a hospital since it would cost him money, so she got treated in a student hospital for free for an experimental procedure to stay alive till now. I had been going in and out of the hospital here in Texas this past year due to a new and sudden heart condition. My heart will beat erratically and cause me to be unable to breathe, stand, or sit. It comes in sudden attacks irregularly this started this year and I had been working extra hours despite just getting out of the hospital and wearing a heart monitor for 30 days, to slowly pay off the medical bills for these treatments, tests, and doctor visits to treat it but I just am unable to pay for the bills anymore especially for my emergency room visit. My mother’s insurance cannot cover all of it and I lost my job because of this heart condition and I am current college student as well. I was barely paying for my own college through loans and scholarships and my job. I lost my job for over a month now and am unable to find another one because I do not have a car, a degree yet, and because of covid everyone is avoiding hiring Asians. My work would not work with me for my hours so I could not have more than 3 hours to sleep a night, and this made my heart condition get worse and worse. I went to the shift that was talked about in the picture below and many more like it but I still lost my job.

I have no way of paying for my current medical bills, medical bills to treat my heart condition or my college anymore. I have been praying every day that God will heal me, but he has yet to answer my prayers. The doctors told me that they need to run some more tests to pinpoint my heart condition and how to treat it. All I know right now is that my blood gets stuck in the top chamber of my heart and struggles to get into the second chamber causing swelling in my heart which is the attacks that I get. If they run some more tests, they think that they can treat it but I have no way to get the money for it so I came here to beg for a chance to pay for my medical bills to stay alive.

Please save me

Doctor comes in the room after biopsy, pet scan to tell you your Cancer has come back after 6 yrs. It is now a stage 4 and has gone to your bones. Tears down your face, the Doctor leaves the room with such emotion, you look at your husband in shock! With tearful eyes, you grab his hand saying it will all be okay. Doctor comes in , says we must start Chemo today. I have been through Chemo 3 times and am now on my 3rd set of Chemo pills. they don’t last but about 6 months, but the Doctor says it’s time I wouldn’t of had.

I call my Daughter to tell her the news, she screams out frantic and afraid, saying No Mama you can’t leave me. it took everything I had not to fall apart at that moment. I told her, No baby, I’m gonna be around another 20 yrs.

I tell my Son and all he could do is hug and tell me I’m sorry Mama can we fight this? your not leaving me now are you? Tears running down his face.

This is hardest on the family for sure. I had to come home from working a great job 2 an a half yrs ago, due to the pain and issues with my Cancer. My husband and I had a 5 year plan to get ready, pay off and be able to retire in reasonably good shape. But the loss of income was drastic, I am now on disability. it’s not a lot.

As a Wife and Mother of course you want your family taken care of. I can’t stand thinking my husband will be left alone with all this . We are struggling, we are about 11,000. behind on medical bills and that’s having good insurance. I have put as much as I can on a credit card.  We have fallen behind like so many others with the Pandemic. Although my husband worked through it. we had weeks of slow down and not the same monies.

Everyday we hope for more time, and everyday we see is a huge win. I have never asked for help from strangers, I’ve worked since I was 14. I haven’t even told my husband what I’m doing, I’m afraid he would be embarrassed and ashamed. I am now relying on the Kindness of others to possibly help us. and with this help maybe I can pay it forward to someone else. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story. God Bless you and yours. Have a wonderful Day.

• I am a 32 year old mother of 6 children under 10. Four of my children suffer with developmental delays, ASD, and limited communication. In March 2019 I found out I had a rare brain condition called idiopathic intracranial hypotension.  My father had to travel all of South Carolina Hospitals to get me Lumbar Spinal Taps every week due to the pressures in my brain elevating. I have done had approximately 10 Lumbar Spinal Taps. After the pressure get taking off I then suffer from Low/High CSF Headaches where I’m not able to stand for periods of time. I have abnormal gait mobility, stutter, and tremor. It’s has been hard to get relief or some type of cure to help my disorder ease so that I can care for my children or get the proper help I need  so that they can get help they need. I am not working or in school so I can’t get any benefits from Department of Social Services. I have also contacted my local CSB for children  and was put in a wait list tier until services come available that can take up to 5 years. Also I have 10 months old fraternal twins who need attention. Anything will help at this point. Hope God Continue to bless you all. Keep Keshia in your prayers that this shall pass.
