My Wife was injured in a car accident

To Whom it Concern,

I want to thank whoever takes the time to read this and help my family.

My wife was in a car accident and has been out of work for a while, and I am on disability for having bad lungs. The car accident wasn’t my wife’s fault. Someone came out of nowhere and hit her, totaling our car and injuring her. I have been trying to help as much as possible, working for Amazon Flex delivery, getting us to buy with my disability checks, and working for Amazon Flex with hours so as not to lose my disability in the process. Our son also has autism, so between taking her and him to appointments, work hasn’t been fun. She was our primary provider, and we pray that people will find it in their hearts to help us. I have never asked for any help before on something like this. We are about to lose everything: our home, car, power, food, and our sanity. I don’t know what to do or who to turn to. I have no family here, and we need help. I have pawned everything we own, including my wife’s wedding ring, which meant a lot to her. so I have tried everything before turning here for help. If you need more information, feel free to ask. We are open books, and again, thank you for everything. I don’t know what category to ask for in this. We need at least $1,900 to get us caught up. Please help us.

Starting my life over at 43

Hello. Mt name is Lisa I am a female  and 43 years young. I am currently try I ng to start over and do what I have always dreamed of.  I am a firm believer that regardless of what you have been through ones perspective on things can make all the difference.  A positive mind and the strength and will power to move forward and up can make the world of difference.  I have been I believe to hell and back on multiple occasions, I have just survived and extremely abusive relationship for the last nine years. I lost everything I had and recovering from homelessness and many injuries and scars along the way. When I finally made it out surprisingly alive I made myself a promise. I would from that koment on do something with my life that made me happy doing for however long I still exist here.  I have an absolute passion for restoring antique furniture and interior design and it just so happens that it turns out I am very good at doing so.  I have started my own company and find myself struggling to survive until I can get this business off the ground and turning any sort of profit. I know this will come in time and with hard work. If there is something I am not afraid of it would be hard work and dedication to something I cherish. To get this business going I need to be able to afford the space to hit the ground running as well and the technology to do so. Meaning work computers, pos systems a cell phine to reach potential clients,  a marketing assistance yo have thr time to get me onto platforms to reach more potential clients and a safe and stable place to live which would double as my home workshop and portfolio space.  As well as being able to afford the certifications and things necessary to move forward. I would appreciate any assistance from hopefully someone who knows how hard it is to start over and bounce back from the horrible things in life.  Thank you for taking the time to read this and have a wonderful day.

Will and Shine

Good day to all,

I turn to you this day as others and the lord knows I did try not to come this platform. Today, I’ve come to find that my source of transportation needs an engine replacement. As this came as a shock to me. There were no obvious signs of this type of failure. I hadn’t started it in a while and it was known that other important work was necessary.

Of course, there is a history to this part of life.

In March this year, my work was terminated due to management issues. The pay was good and on time while the project was ongoing and until just before our two week break. The last two pay periods were awkward. As it was the first time we hadn’t received the pay on-time. The next payment was received late as well and on this occasion it was also short. Thank the most high that we had another week complete when it was time for our break.

Anyway, we returned to our homes respectively expecting to be paid as we were told before heading home. My pay would take about a month and a half to get to me in which case I could not now pay rent. As they would give small portion after being home three weeks then two weeks later a little more. Never paying my full pay at once. In any case this caused me to lose our house about mid-April. We ended up in hotels while I could attempt odd jobs to feed them. More…

At about three weeks later I fractured my foot second thing in the morrow. March 7th, it happened. The next day I realized standing on two feet was not an option. So very thankful that it did not necessitate surgery. We found that we could save by staying at campgrounds for a period. Yet, by this time were clearly beyond low budget. Now, work was not an option for me & this all happened so fast. Losing the house is one thing and was very hard on my family. The children of course thought it was fun. We don’t inform them we don’t live anywhere. We teach them to be greatful that we are covered sometimes. Also that we can eat sometimes.

Now, my bone is healing well and we’ve decided to try to get me back working and…here we are this day. Of course, now the cold season is upon us again. Without the car I now cannot provide heat.

Thank you for your time, patience & sincere consideration.

First Time Homebuyers Short of Down Payment/Closing Cost

Hello Everyone,

 I’m a first-generation Haitian-American and a first-time home buyer with my mom. Due to the rising rent prices in NYC, my mom and I are currently buying our first home, which will give us more freedom when it comes to housing. My mom and mom and I have been saving up for a down payment for about 4 years now, and after finally finding a home, we are currently in a contract for a co-op apartment in Brooklyn, and we have the opportunity to put 10% down of $26,5000. However, we are currently short of $6,500 for the apartment we were approved for, and our closing date is approaching soon on November 15. We both work full-time jobs, and my mom has worked extra hours at her hospital as a CNA to help save up the extra money for our down payment and closing costs, which are an extra $6,500 needed.
Being a full-time student with a full-time job, finding an extra part-time job that works with my schedule has been challenging due to working full-time and being a full-time student. The prospect of losing the chance for secure housing as we got thus far in the home-buying process will be truly heartbreaking. As first-time home buyers, my mom and I have completed home buying courses and researched many home buying grants we could apply for, but we won’t be approved on time as they can take up to months to get approved.
It would be greatly appreciated if any help or donations could be given to me and mom in achieving our goal of becoming first-time homebuyers.
If anyone is able to help and donate, please use my PayPal, and all donations will be greatly appreciated.

Buy and adapt a new van for people with reduced mobility

Dear friends,

I hope this letter finds you well and full of positive energy. I want to share with you an important part of my life and that of my partner, and I kindly ask for your support in facing the challenges we are currently going through.

Since birth, I have lived with Cerebral Palsy, a condition that has limited my mobility and quality of life in various ways. Despite the obstacles I have faced, I am fortunate to be able to communicate effectively and actively participate in society. However, my mobility has been compromised, and at 46 years old, my physical situation has become more challenging.

Currently, I rely on an electric wheelchair to get around, as my muscles do not allow me to walk without difficulty, and I tire easily. Until now, my partner has been a fundamental pillar in my life, helping me with many daily tasks and facilitating my mobility. However, two years ago, she suffered a stroke that left consequences on her mobility, further limiting our possibilities of leading a full and active life.

Our situation has led us to an urgent need: the acquisition of a larger and more adapted vehicle, such as a Volkswagen Multivan, that allows us to move around with greater comfort and accessibility. Not only is this vehicle expensive, but it will also require adaptations to accommodate my power wheelchair and allow me to transfer from it to the driver’s seat via an adapted platform.

It is for this reason that I turn to you for help. Any financial contribution you can provide will be invaluable to us.

 

This support will allow us to:

  • Acquire the necessary vehicle to improve our mobility.
  • Make the adaptations required to make the vehicle accessible.
  • Recover part of our independence and quality of life.

In gratitude for your generosity, we offer the possibility of including signs on the new vehicle, with the intention of raising awareness of this project and also helping other people in similar situations. Additionally, I will be happy to show off my special wheelchair and provide information on how to lead a more accessible and dignified life to everyone who supports us.

Our need is urgent, and any contribution, large or small, will bring us one step closer to our goal. If you would like to be part of this mission to improve our mobility and quality of life, we would be infinitely grateful.

On behalf of my partner and I, we thank you for taking the time to read this letter and consider our application. Together, we can make a more accessible and dignified life possible.

With gratitude and hope,

Inigo

Just a hardworking individual needing some temporary financial assistance!!

Hello…. a bit uncomfortable writing this as I never have asked for handouts in my entire life…I have raised three kids as a single mom and have had my fair share of struggles,  but managed to get by.  I have always always always WORKED….since I have been 16 years old…(I am now 58!) I have been in sales and customer service for 35 years and have always had a job.  Well, I just got let go from by my most recent employer (worked remotely for a well established moving company) and things seemed to be going very well!  I was making a lot of sales for them, and I never received any negative feedback at all??  So you can imagine my shock and disappointment when all of a sudden out of nowhere my boss calls and says…”we have to let you go – we are entering the “slow season” and just can’t afford to keep you on anymore”….what??  I was so shocked.  In any event, I live alone, basically had been living paycheck to paycheck…no husband or partner to help share the bills with me.  I am panicked beyond belief.  I WANT TO WORK….and I know I will find another job….I just need some help with my life expenses…rent…gas and electric…FOOD!  Just until I find another job.  This is so hard for me to do.  Anything at all will help…not looking for thousands…just something to help me get by until I find something else.  I was an independent contractor so do not qualify for unemployment benefits…I have already tried.  Thank you so much for reading my story….and any help you can provide would be SO appreciated!!!  You have no idea…

Hello,I am trying to get out of an abusive relationship. I am a a mother of 3 grown children with 5 grandchildren. I have custody of two of my grandchildren. The oldest being 18 the youngest being 4 years old. I have been in this relationship to long. He has been assrested for death threats about 3 weeks ago. He is no longer able to contact me in any way or his bail will be pulled. I am asking for help to get enough money to pay the mortgage and buy food. My mortgage is 1,,200. A month. I only receive $1000.00 dollars a month. I am disabled and cannot work at this time. I have sold most of my belongings to feed us. I have nothing left to sell. I would love to be able to stay in my home. But without help that won’t be possible. I understand that there are alot of people in need in this world and I am trying my best not to become homeless and lose custody  my grandchildren. I have had my oldest grandchild since she was 5 years old. She has just started University this past September. My grandson who is only 4 years old has been with me since birth. I do have a vehicle which I cannot sale because I live in the country and need it to get to appointments and to get groceries at the food bank right now,because I have no money for food left. My mortgage is way less then getting an apartment. I have no security at my home and no pets. I would like to try and receive enough money to pay for some security camras and my mortgage along with some food. I will try my best to pay it forward when I am in a better position. But at time I am very desperate for financial help.

Teacher left high and dry, please help if you can.

https://www.paypal.me/333jojo444

Hello there! I’m not even sure if anyone is even reading this, but if you are I thank you for your time.

I have found myself in a terrible financial situation and I’m on the brink of homelessness. I only have 15 more days to come up with $4,531. I got a 2nd job as a bartender (teaching full time, though it’s my calling, just isn’t cutting it)  but it won’t be enough in time. I have been praying about this and pastor told to me to put it in God’s hands now.

A little backstory for you: I am blessed to be the mother of my 16 year old daughter, she really is the best kid anymore could ever ask for. My husband just left us for his high school sweetheart and just served me with divorce papers. I am completely heartbroken, I love this man and committed my life to him. I welcomed him into my daughter’s and my life with open arms. To say it hurts would be an understatement. My daughter is completely devastated. One day her stepdad is loving her “like his own” and now he wants nothing to do with her. Her real daddy went to be with Jesus so now she feels like she’s lost 2 dads. Here’s the kicker though, he says we have to vacate the family home by the 1st. I don’t have the money for a lawyer to help protect us, which whatever on that, I’m giving that to God because I know he will protect us. My concern is that I don’t have enough money for 1st and last months rent plus security deposit. We have no where to go. I have zero family here, my husband is all we had.

My daughter is in her junior year of high school, she finally made the cheer team, she’s got a wonderful group of friends and she loves her school. I cannot take that from her, she’s lost enough already. If we have to go to a shelter, she’ll be forced to switch schools because they’re all in different school districts. She will be heartbroken. She is on a good track headed for college, I am terrified of knocking her off that path.

There is an apartment complex across the street from her school, which would be ideal for her for school and cheer practice. I work 7 days a week so she walks just about everywhere these days. They have a one bedroom apartment for $2,100 per month (I’ll sleep on the floor, a 2nd bedroom is a luxury I just don’t need to have right now) I need to pay 1st and last months rent ($4,200) plus the security deposit ($1,500) on the day we move in. $5,700, in addition to my other monthly bills, is so much money to gather in only 30 days time. I have 15 days left and I am praying for a miracle.

I tried to get a loan on Friday but I was denied because I have NO credit since everything is in my husband’s name. I can’t even use my own car as collateral to get a secured loan because it is also in his name. This just feels so hopeless. I never thought I would end up in this situation. I work so hard yet find myself with so little. I love teaching so much, it is definitely my calling, I just wish it paid more. Learning to be a bartender has started to become a lucrative side hustle for me and I’m so thankful for the opportunity to make the extra money. If I had more time I could definitely come up with the money. Unfortunately for me I only have 15 days left. After paying my car insurance, electric, water, trash, my half of the mortgage, food, cheer fees, etc for the month, I was able to come up with $1,369 to put toward our moving costs.

I am in desperate need of $4,531. If there is anyone out there reading this, and is able to help, please help me. I promise I’m not some lazy bum looking for handouts. I have been a teacher devoted to her students for the past 14 school years. You can’t help someone that isn’t willing to help themselves. That’s not the case here, please help me help myself. I would love to earn the money, so if you have some work for me I would be thrilled to complete it. I am willing to do anything (minus illegal stuff) to keep a roof over our heads. Please, anything helps, especially prayers for strength, healing and comfort… I think we need that the most. God bless you and I thank you for your time.

Single mum just out of domestic violence with 3 boys and 1 of them is severely disabled, PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!

Hello everyone,

My name is Kylie. I recently got out of a horrific domestic violent relationship which was physically, emotionally, financially and sexually violent. I am now a single mum to 3 boys, my youngest boy has a severe intellectual disability as well as epilepsy. I have some very bad mental health issues at the moment as well due to the past abuse I endured. We are struggling to live day by day and if this wasn’t enough to deal with, our beloved family dog passed away this morning, it was a huge shock, we just woke up and found him. I don’t have the money to even get someone to come and pick him up or help me with him and his remains. Not only that my youngest son has a birthday coming up in a few weeks and I can’t even bear to think about Christmas or my phone bill that are past due about to be cut off since I can barely afford food and petrol. I was a nurse and loved helping others but had to stop working after we left the abuse as I had nobody to look after my children while I was working and now I have no idea what to do. I am literally crying while typing this. I have never ever asked for money before and I feel so horrible for doing this right now but I don’t know what else to do. I feel like such a failure. If any kind souls out there would be able to help me out even a little, you have no idea how much I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart and as soon as we are back on our feet I promise I will pay it forward. I wish my children didn’t have to deal with all this because they are such beautiful, caring boys with hearts of gold.
To anyone out there who might be able to help us out right now… THANK YOU and I owe you.

Please help me, help my kids.

Thank-you and I hope something amazing and beautiful happens to you all xxx

HIT THE ROCK BOTTOM

Good day to everyone.

I never imagined, that I will sink so low at any point of my life. I always dared to dream big and believed that by this time I will be financially successful. Well now I am 28 years old and life took a very big turn in the opposite direction. I do however try to keep a positive attitude, but it just feels like there is no way out.

So, from the beginning of april and until the end of august I have been on sick leave, because of an injury. During this time I was receiving less than a minimum wage, so the savings depleted very fast. I pay all the bills, and my girlfriend at the time was unemployed. I also have to take care of my father who is suffering from illness. In september I went back to work, only to find out that I will be fired by the end of the month. And also my long time girlfriend left me for unclear reasons. And now I don’t know how I will pay next months bills. I don’t even know if I will be able to eat. My biggest concern or fear is that I will not be able to take care of my father. Right now he is the only person that I have left. I know he wants to help me too, but he simply is unable. His pension is so low, that I have to buy food for him too. I really have nowhere else to turn.

I do have quite a number of skills but somehow I just can’t get a new job. Mostly I think that is because I do have a limitation due to the injury. It will take several more months to heal fully.

I do believe that somehow I will get throught this. If there is anyone who is willing to donate it would mean the world to me. I only ask for what I need and nothing more. With this donation, you would help me on my way to get back on my feet. And also, you would help me to take care of my father.

I would be grateful for any kind of support.

My situation is to just get throught the month so what I am asking is 1000€. Please.

Here is my Paypal link: paypal.me/stasboz

I wish to thank everyone for the much needed help. And I hope that everything repays you 1000X.

Have a good day everyone and thank you.

Abandoned in a third world country with 2 children under 10

Greetings I am a young woman with 2 girl children by the ages of 9 and 3. I’m originally from Washington DC, that is where I met my ex husband. We were so in love when we first got together, I would have never thought our situation would end up like this.

We dated for a while got to know each other’s families, got married and moved to Atlanta Georgia with my oldest daughter and soon after moving we conceived my 3 daughter who happens to be non-verbal autistic. Dealing with her disability has been extremely hard and time consuming to deal with alone. Even though she is only 3 she can be a lot to handle and she has more energy than me most days. Thank God for my 9 year old who can help me sometimes when she isn’t at school.

I digress we had no family or friends in the new city so we mostly spent time at home. This is part of the relationship is were things started to take a turn for the worst. After having the baby my ex became more self indulgent, he stayed out all night with new “friends” after I had his baby. Leaving me to do all the housework and dealing with the children alone and I quickly started to develop postpartum depression.

I should have left then, when I was still in America where I could receive assistance and get a job since I am a dental assistant by trade. However I wanted to keep my family together and we had a plan that I believe could save our relationship.  It was always my ex husbands plan was to move somewhere tropical after selling our house in Georgia and creating a business to live off of after we moved.

We decided to move to Belize, without much information, not even so much as a visit to the country first, foolish I know. However we did do plenty of research online and watched hours and hours of content on YouTube about the country, buy land out here ect. We knew the people speak English, the cost of living was and people live very humble. My ex is very cheap so this appealed to him greatly.  Some people even live in wood houses and shacks. We live in the village of teakettle a quaint town with two stores in it and a lot of dirt roads. My oldest goes the local school.

We didn’t know that once you got here as a foreigner you couldn’t get a job anywhere. You must come with your own stream of income or business. We also didn’t know it was $100 per person to live here per month. This helped eat away at the cushion we came here with even quicker.

I followed my ex husband here in blind trust I know now I was dumb to do so but I trusted him with my life and the lives of my two precious children and he always promised he would take care of us but I guess he got tired of it and gave up. He use to be so kind but as times got tough, with no stream of income and money running low he became very mean and would have huge outburst of anger towards me and the children. Around this time is when he started telling me that he didn’t want to be with me anymore and he even cheated on me with some of the local women. I was devastated but still tried to fix our relationship for the sake of my children.

Long story short after using up all of the money including the little money I had in my accounts my ex husband took off and went back to the states and left us here. He said he would back for us but since he’s been back to the states I have barely heard from him and he has been gone for months he is sending us crumbs to live off of. Sometimes I even have to fast for day at a time just to make sure I can feed my children.

I also went to culinary school so when I some groceries I’ve been making baked goods to sell in front of stores because you can do that here without getting arrested however this is only enough to help us eat through the week. It is very hard to even look for online work with no one here to help me with my autistic 3 year old. I’m still looking for something flexible that is worth the time.

MY CHILDREN AND I DESPERATELY NEED HELP AT THIS TIME. My ex had was paying the rent for 3 months at a time but now we are getting to the end of our 3 months and he has made it very clear he will not being paying it again. My children and I have to be out of this house by November and we currently have  no place to go or funds to go else were. My rent here is $833 US a month I’m currently looking for a place cheaper and so far the best I’ve seen is 2 bedrooms for $500 USD & most of them don’t come with a fridge or a stove or a washer machine and beds. So I would have to buy that all separately. The place we currently live in came with all those things already.

We would really appreciate any and all help you can give us at this time. We need moving funds, grocery funds, the car that I have right now is giving me trouble and the mechanic says its the transmission and it will be $1600 to fix we need funds for that. My youngest daughter has grown out of most of her clothes and just broke the last pair of sandals she had so she literally has no pairs of shoes right now we need funds for that, and also my oldest will be going to a new school and each school out hre you have to pay tuition for them to attend and each school had different color uniform so we need funds for that. SO ANY FUNDS YOU CAN SHARE AT THIS TIME WOULD DO SO MUCH FOR MY FAMILY RIGHT NOW.

Keep in mind any $1 US dollar you send us is $2 Belizean dollars so please help us in anyway you can. Thank you

I’m currently studying for a new job I can do online but I won’t be done with that until at least a month from now.  I’m doing everything I can from selling baked goods on the street to looking for online work to asking for help online please bless our family. Godspeed

To be someone productive again for me and my family

http://paypal.me/ars781 Good afternoon, I am Alejandro Cruz García, painter, draftsman and sculptor. There was a time when I could make a living from my work, but circumstances have distanced me from that position.

This problem begins with the pandemic, where for fear of getting sick I locked myself in my house for almost two years, I have a wife and two children, at first we were calm because I had some savings, then they ran out and I looked to sell online, but of course It was enough that I began to go into debt, thinking that with what I got online I would get ahead; The problem is that when everyone took to the streets because I reduced the danger of the corona virus, my sales fell but not my debts. I owe 5,000 dollars that I have been paying, (I owed 8,000) but because of the debt, the little that I have been obtaining goes only to pay this debt. The worst thing is that I have not exhibited again and earned from the sale of my works. I am desperate, so I ask you to help me pay this debt. Likewise, anyone who wants to know my work and even place an order with me, I am at the best disposal. Thank you for reading this, God enlightens us.

A Call for Compassionate Support in Realizing Our Dream of Parenthood

Hi. I’d like to thank you upfront for even considering to read my story, and for donating to our pursuit of completing our family, if you should decide to. We are very grateful for anything even if your not donating please just send a prayer our way.. that we will be able to make this dream of being able to have a baby that is a miracle of us both come true.

My name is Meighan and my husband is Billy. I have children from my former husband but my husband has no children of his own and as his wife I want to give him that blessing of being a father. During my last pregnancy (the birth of my daughter) I was shocked by the electricity at work and it sent me into preterm labor in which I had to undergo an emergency cecarisn section. During this I started to bleed and the doctors were in a panic to get wherever the blood was coming from clamped off and once they did they ended up continuing on to do a tubal litigation.

The tubal litigation was done bc once my ex husband had gotten abusive with me during my pregnancy and I had separated from him I made the decision to have this done and signed the paperwork to have the procedure done as well. However months before I went into preterm labor I had spoken to both of my doctors and had told them that I decided not to continue with it and I no longer wished for the surgery on my tubes to be done. That I may want more children later on and they reassured me that they had put it in my charts and I wouldn’t have to go forward with the process. So I never thought about it again.

However, my second day in the hospital after my daughter was born, I was informed that the doctors that treated me (the doctors on call when I arrived at the hospital) had done the procedure and that I had previously signed the forms and they were sorry but if I wanted kids later on I could pay to reverse the surgery. I was devastated and after speaking to several lawyers, I was told that I had previously signed the paperwork for this to be done and that even though my doctors assured me that they would not be moving forward with the surgery… The paperwork was still in my file so that’s all the on call doctors were able to go by and that no malpractice was done considering I had in fact signed for it even though I had expressed I had changed my decision to do so.

This surgery is between $10.000-$15,000.This is why your reading this now.We need help coming up with the money to reverse the surgery that I was never supposed to have received.

I would like to give my husband a son or daughter or hopefully one of each. So if you could possibly look into your heart and see how important that may be to a couple and for one second,just imagine the pain in which it brings me, not to be able to make my husband happy by having his own biological children.  Could you please choose to help us both fulfill this dream and help us complete our tiny family and donate to our miracle. As I mentioned earlier though a prayer in hopes of fulfilling our dream would be just as appreciated and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for just taking the time out of your day to read our story and the thought or consideration of possibly donating to help us. Your an amazing person just for that.

 

Thank you all so much,

Meighan and Billy

Please Consider Helping in my breast cancer survival.

Dear Sir or Madam

I am writing this request because I am in need of help with paying my property tax.  property taxes. I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer 2 months after my mom died of Metastatic Breast Cancer. Treatment has been grueling but I am continuing to survive. Due to side effects  of Chemo my work hours were reduced. My family went from 2 income to one. My spouse who served as a firefighter for 28 years struggled to keep us all together.  We are recovering together.  Neuropathy in both feet causes pain. I’ve  had  double mastectomies and reconstruction. Complications after the surgery included infection of Cellulitis and my wounds opened.  My new breast tissue and the donor site which is my stomach opened.  I was placed on dressing changes and eventually a wound vac. Dressing changes took 30 minutes because the wound was deep. I had to go to wound care clinic every 2 days. It has been a struggle to recover physically, mentally and financially. Having 3 teenage children during chronic illness has been hard. I am cancer free at this time however the effects of the journey are still prevalent in my life. We are rising from the ashes one day at a time. Property tax this past year is delinquent. If this is not paid by November 1st 2023 it will be sold in Tax sale. This will result in interest and penalties that will definitely be hard to recover and has the potential to be lost. It will be devastating to loose my home and property.  I would really appreciate donations to help my family and I keep our home.      my pay pal is  Paypal.me/Lacresha Cromwell

HARD WORKING MAN NEEDS A HELPING HAND!

Hello, My name is Arlene and my husband Angel who is 51 years old has been a hardworking guy since the age of 16. We are asking for a helping hand in paying our bills. Angel works as a boom truck operator, but has not been working since he suffered a stroke on July 7th 2023, which affected the right side of his body. He was hospitalized for two weeks due to the stroke. During his hospital stay the CT scan showed a mass in his lung, that was determined to be lung cancer. On September 18, 2023 Angel had Lung surgery, which they removed 40% of his left lung. Two days after his surgery the doctors had removed the chest tube and thought he was good to go home, a couple of hours after taken the chest tube out his oxygen levels dropped and his lung collapsed. So they had to re-insert the chest tube back in and put him on oxygen. The chest tube was taken out the next day and he was discharged from the hospital. Angel was having lots of pains in his chest area and coughing uncontrollably, the doctors said it was due to the surgery and it was expected. Two weeks after the surgery, Angel had a follow up visit with his doctor and had a Xray done. The Xray showed that he had some space between his lung and chest wall and the doctor wanted to do another Xray the following week just to see if there was still some spacing. All the while Angel was experiencing lots of pains in his lung and chest area and continued to cough. We went back to the doctor the following week and the Xray showed that the spacing got larger. The doctor told Angel to come back the next day to do another Xray, but that night he started having trouble breathing so we ended up go to the emergency room. Turns out that Angel’s lung collapsed again and had to get the chest tube put back in and is still currently in the hospital.

We live paycheck to paycheck and always managed to get by, but since Angel has been out of work and Disability is only giving him $150 a week, we are struggling to keep up with the bills. He has been using his credit cards to pay what he can with them and now they are all maxed out. He is now backed up on his car note, loan and credit card payments.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
