I’m a 53 year old father of 5 struggling as a single parent. With 3 children grown and out of the nest I thought I had everything at home under control. And I did for a while. Then a couple of automobile repairs and a bout with sickness put me behind in my financial responsibilities and soon it began to snowball. In time I had maxed out my credit cards just trying to provide a normal life (something that their mother never allowed any of us to have ) for my remaining pair. My once good credit rating is long since gone. This led me to using cash advance apps just to get through the week. This helped for about 2 weeks and then I could clearly see I was working to pay them back only to turn around and borrow right back from them. Now with an unsecured loan delinquent and credit cards in collections, the threat of garnishment is extremely likely and would bury me for sure. I work 50 hours a week to barely break even. Just to make matters worse, I recently was informed that I probably have a tumor on my colon. I have not shared the news with my kids yet. They all see me as the strongest man in the world and a great provider. I have been their rock and held our family together since their mother tore everything apart. I don’t know what to tell them. I’ve never asked anyone for anything. I’ve always been the one helping others with whatever they needed. I’m embarrassed and ashamed to be in this position. More than anything, I’m scared. I can feel the walls closing. I feel depression taking over. I just can’t see a way out of the debt that I carry and I’m quickly losing hope. I don’t want to drag these 2 innocent beautiful souls down with me. I just need to get things even and I literally have no where else to turn. If you can help me, even just a little, I will be eternally grateful and can head into the next chapter with some renewed confidence. I’m going to need it! Thank you just for reading my story.
