Life has been turned upside down

My mother passed away 64yrs of age from cancer last year, really bad ending due to hospital negligence, needed around the clock care, lost my job, 6months later divorce from a 27yr marriage.  Daughter graduated and started college.  Couldn’t afford to keep the house, sold quickly to a wanna sell fast company that ended up getting screwed over, the little cash made went to paying down credit card debt racked up during this all.  Living back home with elderly Dad and his 2 dogs, with 2 kids 19 & 16, 2 dogs and a cat, sharing a bedroom with my daughter.  While trying to sell the house and needed money to pay bills, had to sell most everything and my car.  So, needing cash for a cheap car to get a job and get back on my feet to get our own place.  If anyone out there would kindly like to donate, looking for $2000 so I can get a cheap car off Facebook marketplace and get my life back on track.

Thank you,

Momma doing her best

48 year old single mom with a terminal illness.

Good day to all,

 

I am a 48 year old single mother diagnosed with a terminal illness. I am also a former educator and military spouse of 17 years. I taught English and science at the geade school level as well as elementary education. I spent most of my life volunteering with community centers, churches, organizations like the red cross. I have also been a foster parent. I had a hard childhood, but I didn’t realize the stress I was putting on myself. My children and I are now homeless, I am unemployed and in debt. I also have a ton of medical bills and student loan debt.

I am recently released from the hospital and trying to put what life I have left back together. Any assistance will be honored in its use to clear my debt and provide stability for my children.

Help me to buy toiletries and depends for the elderly in Jamaica

Hi, 

my name is Shantel. I am a second generation Jamaican American. I have been collecting toiletries and depends for the elderly in Jamaica since 2021. I have successfully sent two barrels a year. This year I have been struggling significantly because the prices for everything has gone up and I also have more responsibility. I have a two year old daughter and recently purchased a new home. I took interest in donating to the elderly back in 2016. I use to be a hospice aide who delivered toiletries to my patients on a weekly basis. Caring for my patients made me think of my sick grandmother who now benefits from these donations more than ever before as well as the elderly in her community. I have aided 7 families over the past 3 years. I do intent to expand until I am able to provide for more families throughout every parish in Jamaica. I would greatly appreciate the boost in donations as I have missed my set deadline in April. I have fallen behind on filling the barrels I had purchased in February of this year. My grandmother is a 3 time stroke survivor and I plan on visiting her for her birthday in September God’s willing. I really appreciate any amount you are willing to give. This is my pay pal: https://paypal.me/empressluxe?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US

EMT in need of help.

I recently had to stop working due to a medical condition called Narcolepsy. I’m 35 and have worked since I was 16 years old (lifeguard).  My health declined and I had to choice but to stop working as an EMT. Driving became very stressful and dangerous due to the medications not working anymore. I have now seen a new sleep doctor and prescribed new medication but will need a sleep study because my last one was in 2010. I have applied for dozens of part time jobs in the time being until I can get my medications right and get back to working in the field I love so much. I’m requesting 2500 for the sleep study (I no longer have insurance) and medications and also basic household needs that I have neglected the past month. Anything will be greatly appreciated.

I can provide my personal information along with certifications and paystubs and anything else requested.

Venmo is my preferred method

A Beautiful Life Ended in Tragedy

In this moment of overwhelming grief, I find it almost unbearable to write these words. The heartbreak within me is profound, echoing through my very core as I grapple with the reality that nothing will ever be the same. The person I loved unconditionally, the one who has been closest to me my entire life, is gone. My little brother, was someone who was always thinking of everyone else, he always put others first and no matter what he always had a smile on his face, nothing seemed to dull his spirit. His laughter, energy, and enthusiasm brought immense warmth to our lives. He was a devoted father to his two young boys, a loving partner to their mother, and a cherished friend to anyone who knew him. And we can’t forget the loving son he was and the kind of sibling everyone wishes they could have.

The cause of death is still undetermined, there is suspicion that foul play may be involved and it is an ongoing investigation. It came without warning, leaving us shattered. The agonizing thought that if someone would have been with him or if help had arrived sooner, he might still be with us today. This tragic incident happened in a public place, highlighting the urgent need for better safety measures. As we navigate this devastating loss, we are committed to advocating for improvements that could prevent similar tragedies in the future.

My brother deserved a long and fulfilling life. His untimely death could have been prevented in so many ways, and I am left wondering if I could have done more. I blame myself for not being there for him that night. Why wasn’t I with him when he needed me the most? I wish he would have called.

Now, I am faced with the task of giving him the farewell he deserves. It is a heartbreaking time, and we don’t have the resources to give him the proper tribute. I would never forgive myself if I can’t figure out a way to make this happen. I want to honor him properly, to show how much he meant to us.

If anyone can help me and our family, it would mean everything. People shouldn’t have to deal with stress or financial worries in a time of loss. Everyone deserves a peaceful time to grieve. I can’t let this final part of his life go unrecognized. It needs to be significant, so he knows how much we loved him.

Please, if you can, help us honor his memory in the way he deserves. Your support would mean the world to us.  We are trying to raise $10,236. Thank you.

For now, we remember this selfless young man, one in a million, who touched lives in ways few can. Please keep our family in your prayers. Any support during this challenging time helps us feel less alone and brings us comfort knowing he lives on in our hearts.

Forever Cherished with Love and Gratitude. Brother I love you so so much

Diagnosed and Let Go due to Diagnosis

Hello, I was recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis while being at the doctor for a spinal injury at work and am asking for $5000 or whatever you can help with for medical bills. I injured my spine while at work and my place of employment let me go three days after my injury because they said my work performance was not up to par. I can’t work at the moment due to doctor’s restrictions, and I no longer have insurance to cover anything.

 

I realized the world doesn’t stop for anyone but I am asking if anyone could help me through this confusing and difficult time by helping me pay for some of these medical bills while I’m injured and cannot work. I’m hoping to raise $5,000 to help pay for a piece of my medical expenses. At this point, anything will help. I appreciate you more than you will ever know.

A young man in need of help from other humans for a better, new and healthier life in London, England.

Unfortunately, due to battling chronic BPD, and feeling afraid of my diagnosis and daily symptoms, I recently became homeless after succumbing to losing my flat of 12 years. I was a looked after child under the care of Brent Social Services from the age of 3 years old, because of a stabbing inflicted by my estranged father on my mother on my 3rd birthday. He stabbed her 18 times, and went to prison. My mother, vanished, more or less after being released from hospital and I went into care, although strangely I still had contact with my father, as he threatened to kill my mother if she tried to keep me in her care. He was violent in ways with me, especially if I misbehaved at school and all of this trauma for 30 years lead me to where I am now, with chronic BPD, anxious, homeless and currently living in a shelter which is surrounded by people who suffer from drug and alcohol addiction.

 

I just wish for a better life and some help from humanity, as well as somewhere to call my own, in addition to getting help for my condition. Right now, I feel totally hopeless and shameful too admittedly for using this website as my last resort.

Honestly speaking and painfully speaking, I haven’t had much in life in the way of people; hardly any family, carers who came and went, which is part of their job, I suppose, and 1 cat I love to death. I know there are people who are blessed to be in positions that can help people like me. I also give to those less fortunate than me whenever I have the means. I just pray someone can do the same for me. I would appreciate it very much. I wouldn’t even ask for any particular amounts, as I hate coming across as ungrateful. Sorry for the long explanation of my circumstances and thank you for all you decide todo to help me make a life for myself and start over.

Financial Aid for mortgage

We had it all going living a modest life with our kids until April 2022, when I experienced the most dramatic and terrifying situation of my life the loss of my unborn child. Carrying her for 9 months and not having the privilege of holding her was unbearable. I stayed home for four months with the hopes to heal, and resume work strong and ready to deliver at work and home as usual. I was wrong, I held up at work but at home I was depressed, full of anxiety and soon ran into chronic insomnia, nerves and hormonal imbalance. The doctors said I had mental health issues, but my surrounding said I am ungrateful and just exaggerating. In my culture, stilled birth is considered evil, and the parents most not mourn for the child. Easy said than done, what about the monthly antenatal, the preparations and expectations all of that gone as a dream.

My loan installment must be settled accordingly if not our house will be at risk of being taken over by the bank. It is for this reason that I sincerely tender this request for financial help from good will people. From this part of the world immediate family is not the only family you worry about, as I have to cater for my mother, grandmother and siblings as well who are still in school. Having all of these to worry about is not really enhancing the healing process for me. My aim is to clear my loan to secure our house and to eventually set up a small business to permit me gain back my financial independence.

Thank you all!

Urgent Assistance for Medical Bills

Recently this year, I was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder named “Idiopathic intracranial hypertension” (IIH). IIH is a rare condition where your body produces too much cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the skull, putting pressure on the brain and optic nerve. If left untreated, it can cause permanent blindness.
Since being diagnosed, I’ve had to undergo multiple tests such as MRIs and lumbar punctures. This has made it a struggle to keep up financially, such as a bill of $3800 that I cannot afford.

I’m asking for any assistance and donations with medical bills as much as possible, because I’m afraid this condition could get worse if I’m unable to afford any further treatment.

Financial Hardship

my PayPal is @Hileenlove Hello All,

My name is Hileen

I am a 32 years old living in Nashville. I am writing to you all because I feel like I am out of options. I am in desperate need of financial assistance. I grew up in a toxic family where my parents always fought over not having money, my mother worked two full time jobs growing up to take care of my older sister and myself, due to her always being at work she wasn’t always around to be there for us, my father on the other hand was a alcoholic, abusive man who wouldn’t come home days on end etc. Fast forwad to college, I converted to Christianity my Freshman year at a Private Christian University in Nashville, TN called David Lipscomb, and due to my new found faith my family decided to completely cut me off, to where I have been left to provide for myself, throughout all my hardships, I would get myself into bad relationships for love, and they would use me to the point all my money would go to buying them stuff to feel loved, and wanted, and now in my 30’s I am desperately trying to learn, heal, grow, and better my future, but I just cannot catch a break from all the debt I am drowning in, covid really sat me back to where I was able to finally save up 8000 and during covid my hours went down and since work as been so slow. I am a waitress here in Nashville, and am trying to get all my debts in line before I make the move to Louisville for a fresh start away from everyone, and focus on my health, and my dreams in life are to become a life coach for young middle eastern women who struggle with self identity because of their environment. I have made terrible money choices throughout my young life and I am realizing it was due to my family being bad with money. I grew up hearing money was the root of all evil etc. and every time my mother had money or my father… they always spend it all. I am shy, scared, ashamed to ask anyone for help, because in my culture a woman my age should already be married with kids, and I choose to not. I have no one to loan me money. My credit is bad and every time I have extra cash it all goes to my student loans, rent, bills. I recently sold my car for 4000 because I was behind on bills and it all went to my bills. I have been on the verge on suicide because of my struggles that I go through behind closed doors. I will greatly be grateful for any donations, and would love to have your contact in hopes that someday I would like to repay back the kindness to help me get back on track. All the past due bills has me in a mental break down state of mind, it takes away motivation to move forward.

Please help me catch a break from my current situation

Never thought the day would come where I’d use this to ask for money. Please hear me out. My husband and I recently purchased a property, shortly after my husband got laid off. I am a stay at home mom of 3 kids under 6, two of which doesn’t attend school yet. I don’t have family near us and don’t have any help. My husband hasn’t been able to find work and I can’t work because I have no one to care for my children. Our expenses are extremely high, and our emergency fund ran out. We need $20K to be able to survive without work for the next three months. I know this is a lot of money to ask for but a little from each person that’s willing to gift me comes a long way. Please help me out, I’m literally begging whoever is reading this. Thank you so much!! From the bottom of my heart. Many blessings your way.  PAYPAL : MelissaReyes725

I Need Help to Repair Our Essential Work Vehicle

Hello,

 

My name is Brian, and I am reaching out for help during a very challenging time for my family and me.

 

Since 2020, we have faced significant financial hardships due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. To keep our business running after the shutdowns, we have accumulated over $104,000 of debt. Despite our best efforts, we have been struggling to stay afloat, keeping up with bills and preventing foreclosure on our home.

 

In October 2022, I took a full-time job outside of our business to help cover our expenses, and while we are managing to get by, it has been incredibly difficult. Last month, our 2003 truck, essential for my commute to work and delivering products to our customers, broke down. The injectors need to be replaced, and the repair cost is $5,500. Unfortunately, we do not have the funds to cover this urgent expense.

 

This vehicle is crucial for maintaining our livelihood and serving our clients. Without it, we are facing even greater financial strain. We humbly ask for any assistance you can provide to help us get the truck repaired. Your generosity would mean the world to us and help us continue to work and support our family.

 

Thank you for your time, consideration, and any support you can offer.

With gratitude,

Brian

Necesito de su ayuda urgente por un pago de una deuda que se dio por una estafa. / I urgently need your help to pay off a debt that arose from a scam.

Buenos días, tardes o noches para quien lea esta publicación, de antemano agradezco su atención, mi nombre es Eduardo soy peruano y entre a la plataforma porque se que de alguna manera podría obtener ayuda de parte de ustedes, les quiero comentar el motivo por el cual estoy pidiendo un auxilio económico que realmente se me cae en parte la cara de vergüenza en hacerlo pero lamentablemente ya agote todos mis recursos para poder conseguir el dinero de forma urgente, aquí les cuento un poco de porque se suscito este problema, en el año 2013 yo emprendí un negocio con una persona que viene a ser no solo mi socia sino mi mejor amiga, exactamente una veterinaria y la misión del mismo no solo era el tema de ganar dinero sino también poder ayudar en casos especiales a mascotas o perritos de la calle de forma gratuita o con el mínimo costo por motivo que muchas personas no cuentan con mucho dinero para hacerles algún tratamiento y otros porque son asociaciones que necesiten ayuda medica sin costo alguno como en campañas, todo iba perfecto en el negocio en el cual invertí no solo mis ahorros sino que también realice unos prestamos para poder adquirir maquinaria e implementar mejor la veterinaria para que realmente sea una clínica y así brindar todos los servicios y los costos de alquiler personal y mas gastos no sean problema (ya que así se puede dar servicios como cirugías, tratamientos especiales y hasta albergue de mascotas de forma momentánea y así tener mas ingresos y no caer en quiebra de una forma rápida), resulta que a mediados del 2014 tuve un problema familiar ya que mi madre necesitaba una cirugía de urgencia y el costo del mismo salía un aproximado de 2000 dólares, por ende como mis ingresos en ese momento estaban algo limitados tome la decisión momentánea que mientras veía el tema de mi madre no podría asistir a trabajar y como todo tramite solo lo podría realizar yo y mi madre le dejamos un poder a mi socia para que esta pudiera hacer algún tramite sin problema y así me ocupaba de mi madre y aparte tenia un negocio pequeño en casa de comida con el que me ayudaba para los gastos al menos una pequeña parte, resulta que al mes y medio que regreso me doy con la sorpresa que mi socia me sale estafando y armando muchas cosas para quedarse con algo en el cual invertí mucho dinero y como les explicaba plata prestada de bancos que estaban a mi nombre porque como empresa en ese momento no nos lo podían dar y por ende los saque a mi nombre, la deuda con el banco salía aproximadamente unos 45000 dólares lo peor de todo es que como no hice un documento por los prestamos que realice fue el detonante en que quede en pocas palabras en la calle, todo mi dinero propio y de préstamo se había esfumado, muchos dirán pero demándalos, lo intente pero un amigo de los pocos que me quedaron me tendió una mano porque es abogado pero me dio malas noticias porque me dijo de que como le habíamos dado un poder absoluto no había nada que hacer, ellos tenían todas las de ganar.
entre en una depresión en la cual pensé hasta en acabar con mi vida porque en ese momento contaba con un seguro de vida que podría cubrir los gastos el problema es quien se encargaba de ayudar a mis padres con la perdida de su hijo si eso pasaba, por lo cual tome fuerzas y fui a hablar con los bancos para pedirles un auxilio de aplazamiento de la deuda con la garantía que se les pagara, eran exactamente 4 bancos y de los cuales 3 de ellos decidieron ayudarme en ese aspecto porque vieron que realmente quería pagarles, pero uno de ellos no entendió eso y me entablo un juicio en el año 2015 si no estoy mal en la fecha ya que esos documentos lo tiene mi amigo que es el abogado que lleva el caso y de forma gratuita, el tema es que a pesar de apelar a la demanda porque mintieron en algunos aspectos siempre se quiso llegar a un acuerdo del cual quisieron aprovecharse cobrándome mas de el doble de la deuda y lo cual así quisiera por el tiempo que me daban no podría pagarla y me embargarían mis cosas que con tanto esfuerzo las compre en su momento. para no hacerlo tan largo actualmente ellos me están pidiendo pagar la suma de aproximadamente 18000 dólares (los cuales son la deuda capital mas intereses de la deuda solo descuentan los gastos de abogados y del juicio) para terminar con este problema y así para este juicio que lo mas probable me puedan ganar y pedir mucho mas de ese monto, hable con ellos diciéndole que actualmente no cuento con ese y que me es imposible juntarlo de forma rápida ya que por este problema tengo bloqueado prestamos y tarjetas y a mis padres no les dan por ser adultos mayores, mi padre y madre son jubilados por ende a las justas les prestan 500 dólares a lo mucho, se que este monto es grande pero al menos espero poder juntar algo y con ese monto poder conversar y que me den plazo ya que con lo que gano y cuidar a mis padres realmente no llegaría en juntar y las demás deudas recién hace un par de meses termine de pagar por completo.
Me disculpo de antemano porque se que es una forma conchuda y sinvergüenza lo que pido pero no tengo a quien mas pedir, esos amigos que solo estuvieron cuando mi situación económica era bueno ahora resulta que no me conocen, así me di cuenta que los amigos que tengo que son menos de los 5 dedos que tengo en la mano están a mi lado y tratando de ayudarme también pero es algo que como ellos mismo dicen es un imposible por el tan poco tiempo que me dan, espero de corazón me puedan comprender y ayudar ya que el plazo máximo que me dan es hasta el día 10 de julio, yo saliendo de este problema tengan por seguro que al igual que las personas que me puedan ayudar yo también estaré aquí para poder ayudar en su momento a otra persona en igual o peor situación que la mía.
Gracias de antemano.

Good morning, afternoon, or evening to whoever reads this post. I thank you in advance for your attention. My name is Eduardo, I am Peruvian, and I joined this platform because I know that, in some way, I could get help from you. I want to tell you why I am asking for financial assistance, which honestly makes me somewhat ashamed, but unfortunately, I have exhausted all my resources to urgently obtain the money I need. Here is a bit of why this problem arose.

In 2013, I started a business with a person who was not only my partner but also my best friend. It was a veterinary clinic with the mission of not only making money but also helping in special cases, such as treating pets or street dogs for free or at minimal cost, because many people cannot afford treatments, and some associations need medical help for free during campaigns. Everything was perfect in the business, in which I invested not only my savings but also took out loans to acquire equipment and better implement the veterinary clinic, aiming to provide all services and cover costs like rent, staff, and other expenses. This allowed us to offer services like surgeries, special treatments, and temporary pet shelters, ensuring more income and avoiding quick bankruptcy.

However, in mid-2014, I had a family issue as my mother needed urgent surgery, costing approximately $2,000. Since my income was somewhat limited at the time, I decided to temporarily step away from work to focus on my mother. My partner was given power of attorney to handle any business matters during my absence. I also ran a small food business from home to cover some expenses. When I returned a month and a half later, I discovered that my partner had defrauded me, making various moves to take over the business into which I had invested a lot of money, including borrowed funds from banks under my name, as the company couldn’t secure loans then. The debt with the bank was approximately $45,000. The worst part was that, due to the lack of documentation for the loans I took out, I was left with nothing. My own money and the borrowed funds had disappeared.

Many might say, “Why not sue them?” I tried, but a lawyer friend, one of the few who stood by me, gave me bad news: since we had given my partner absolute power of attorney, there was nothing we could do. They had all the legal advantages. I fell into a depression, even considering ending my life, thinking that the life insurance could cover the debts. However, I couldn’t put my parents through the loss of their child. I gathered the strength to talk to the banks, asking for a debt extension, guaranteeing that I would pay them back. Three out of four banks agreed to help, but one did not and sued me in 2015. Despite appealing because they lied in some aspects, they always aimed for an agreement to take advantage by charging me more than double the debt, which I couldn’t pay within their timeframe, risking the seizure of my belongings acquired through hard work.

Currently, they are demanding approximately $18,000 (which are the principal debt plus interest, only excluding the lawyers’ fees and court costs) to settle this issue. If not paid, the lawsuit could result in much higher demands. I explained to them that I currently don’t have that amount and can’t gather it quickly, as I am blocked from loans and credit cards, and my elderly parents can’t secure significant loans. My parents are retired and can only borrow up to $500 at most. I know this amount is substantial, but I hope to gather some money to negotiate an extension. Considering my earnings and caring for my parents, I cannot save up in time. I recently finished paying off other debts a few months ago.

I apologize in advance for this bold and shameless request, but I have no one else to ask. Friends who were around when my finances were good now act as if they don’t know me. I realized that the true friends I have, fewer than the fingers on one hand, are still by my side, trying to help but acknowledging that it is nearly impossible given the short timeframe. I hope you can understand and assist me, as the deadline is July 10. If I get through this, rest assured that I will be here to help others in similar or worse situations.

Thank you in advance.

Single mom needing financial help

After being with the same emloyer for 25 years, I was let go. Two weeks earlier, I unfortunatly had to serve my soon to be ex husband, with a protective order. After 8 years of verbal abuse, mental abuse to our child & my oldest. It had gotten to the point my oldest that made me a grandma 2 months ago, moved 5 hours away. She could no longer watch her mom be verbally assulted.

I have never in my life needed help with paying my bills. Fortuntly for myself and my two girls. I was doing well enough that my oldest daughters favorite tradition, was helping me x-mas shop for another family.

I never thought I would be put in such a desperate situation. I know there is someome in more need than my little family but any help will be greatly appreciated!  Much graditude, appriciation, many many thank you’s for all your help. paypal.me/AngTina

thank you for reading and your generosity.Please help me regain my home and my ability to continue to give back.

My name is John.  First of all, this is long, but very necessary to inform the situation.   Please read everything…. You will be shocked with the details.  From an early age, I have clearly understood value and the need to provide it to the customer. At age 10, I was mowing yards, picking weeds, washing windows,  delivering newspapers,  cleaning up animal waste. Doing the very things other kids my age weren’t.   I looked for the need, then provided. Fast forward to 2009. I meet a wonderful woman who has two children. We become a couple and I take on the responsibilities of two children that are not biologically mine. Happily. I am working providing computer repairs and general sales to anyone who I can gain as a client. Offering excellence in customer service and true value. I have developed the ability to translate difficult concepts of many topics that normally confuse people into what I have coined “mom speak”  I’m working hard. Growing a family and doing all the things a parent does.  Laundry, food prep, rides to school, sports practices, games. Teaching responsibilities to two little adults along the way. I continue to move forward, working hard, pursuing “the dream”  through contacts I am able to gain lucrative employment in the oilfield industry. I begin my new job, and very quickly I am faced with the first challenge I have overcome. Serious work injury.

I’m working, doing my job assembling a very large pump to transfer the fluids used in the drilling process from several tanks into one collection tank.    It’s the first week of the job, so there are a lot of activities going on around the jobsite.  I am in an 8 foot hole, tightening one of 16, 4 inch nuts to a bolt on a pump flange.    Behind me is the supervisor of the site transporting a very large pipe on a lift truck.   This is basically a forklift with oversize wheels on it made for uneven surfaces, etc.   What I don’t know or see, is that he has made a mistake, and not secured his load properly.   A 200 pound 5 foot wide steel pipe.  Attached by just one strap.  He hits a bump and the pipe  falls off the forks, swinging down diagonally toward me like a pendulum.   It drops 15 feet and slams into the back of my neck,  head and shoulder.  From behind.  I am basically crushed. Knocked off my feet and at the bottom of the hole with a huge steel pipe pinning me against the ground.  My hard hat cracked, almost shattering.   I ended up being taken to  the hospital via emergency medical transport and having emergency surgery on my spine and shoulder.  Lucky to be alive.   My spine had fractured and I have had to have double fusion surgery.   I am lucky to be six foot three and have a large strong frame.

Several surgeries and over one year later I have gained the ability to work again.  Now I need to make a living with my brain, not my body.

my daughters boyfriends family owned several restaurants and they are having difficulty staffing and struggling to cope with day to day items because of it. I need to work.  To find out how long I can function without the pain I have come to accept as normal in my life. I volunteer to give my time to the restaurant to see what my limits are, and help him recover at the same time.

Little did I know this was my calling. My passion.  My true talent.  The combination of customer support, while crafting some of the best food I’ve aver made my entire life. Pizza.  The customers absolutely loved me. My product. My story.  The Business grew 70 percent the second month I was there.   I had received a settlement from workman’s comp, and wisely invest it in my family, our first home and my first pizza store.  I put down a large down payment, move us in to a duplex I have found while delivering pizza, and purchase my first restaurant.

Two months later, I purchase another. A year later one more.  I now have over 40 employees and have increased sales at each store I own  and have three locations.  Life can’t get much better.  Or so I thought.

I was about to embark on the journey of a lifetime.  Long grueling hours serving the customer.  Two junior and high school students with active sports team obligations.  Challenges at home with alcohol dependence of a family member. Infidelity on my spouses part.  My father’s death.

Challenges no one thinks they will be faced with in some cases.   Several burglaries in my home. The last one where checks were taken from my office and used to drain my bank accounts.  Theft was close to six figures. I had an employee living in the duplex, lying to me about getting on a federal program to pay back rent.   He didn’t pay for 16 months. all these things combined with Covid have literally crippled me.

These challenges have also made me stronger. Kept me humble.  Taught me many useful things.  Brought me the most wonderful person in my life today. My wife.

I met my wife through a mutual friend.  From the first day, we were destined to be together. A match.  In almost every way. She is 20 years my junior, but honestly an old soul.  Our challenges have been faced with dignity and truth. So many said she just wants the money, failing to see the connection and tenacity we share.    We communicated without physical contact, for over two months. Built a strong friendship that led to much more.    My wife stepped in after Covid hit, destroying the very structures I had carefully built over 11 years.  She has spent countless hours beside me rolling dough, cleaning, serving the customer.   Never asking for anything.  Rolled up her sleeves and has done the very things others wouldn’t do.  Work.

She asked me to marry her and I said yes, absolutely.  She requested to be married in our store.  It was made to be.   It took me just three days on a shoestring budget, to put together the wedding.  Priest who was a customer, employees present, store closed but giving away free product in celebration to every customer ordered.    It was grand.   The best day of my life.   We have pictures in our wedding clothes, making pizza and working.   All with a huge smile.

I faced huge debts, causing me to lose my stores to the franchise owner who took them away from me in the middle of a sale that would have garnered me over 500k.  I got a letter demanding a huge sum in two weeks time or I would lose the store.   We didn’t have it.  I lost the store.   We went from a million dollars income to zero eight months ago.   My wife stands by my side to this day, two years later.    I chose to keep employees during the pandemic, as I believed that to be the right thing.  I put everyone that had helped me grow first, and have faced that decision every day.

I need to put me first again, to integrate my knowledge with reality and move forward.    I lost everything but the knowledge I have gained, the most important things I still have.     My duplex is currently on the market, and  an offer is accepted, but the new owner is having difficulties with financing.  If I do not pay the back debts, I will lose this duplex and all the equity I have built.    I have exhausted all my options and have just 30 days left and need some help from the universe.   Who will help?  It will appreciated greatly, and used very wisely.   I need  a minimum of $50,000 to get back on track.  To zero.   I will work hard and I will succeed, but if I can keep this home, it will help substantially.   If I must sell, then I will.  I’m not afraid to start over.

thank you for reading all this.  It’s just a snippet of my life.   There’s so much more that doesn’t need to be said here.
