Hello, my name is Antonio, a 41-year-old with a family of 4, who I truly love and have committed my life to protecting and securing a foundation for. I’m deeply saddened to even be here asking for help, but things happen unfortunately. But as we all know the world is taking a slight turn for some families financially. I really hate to say I’m one of them. I’ve been let go of my employment of 12 years and it has put me and my family in the toughest situation we’ve ever been in. I’m still looking for work daily in this small town where everyone knows everybody (if you know what I mean), and oddly it’s been hard for anyone to give me a chance to get back supporting my loving family. I’ve even started a few things online called drop shipping business owner selling products on Esty. Also, I’ve created a couple of KDP low content books on Amazon, (Blood Sugar Logbook; Never Sugarcoat Your Blood Sugar Levels) and (Food Inventory Logbook). And like everything else it takes a while to generate sales because I just started all this which I do like, but it takes a little while to get going. So needless to say, bills are getting be hide, rent is getting past due, and this is putting me and my family at an increased risk of being homeless. But I’m a God-fearing man first that is deeply in the lord’s word and have been in deep prayer and fasting daily. Our church family have tried but it’s a small one and them have helped a little, and it’s greatly appreciated. I don’t have family that lives close by that we may turn to in case we can’t afford to stay but I really need my home for us to stay in until something gives. So, I’m asking with a very deep heart for help from anyone that have it and wouldn’t put themselves in danger of having they’re on financial problems. This is so hard for me as a man because I was raised on hard work and providing for my family. But I promise you anything would be greatly appreciated. You can donate to me and my family at paypal.me/Rambofamily or cash app. $Rambofamily5 thank you and God Bless you all.

Morning Kind World,

Back in the winter months, 2018, I lost the lost of my life. The mother of my daughter, and her 2 sons. Like most urban couples today, she was known as my Baby Mother. But we were talking marriage, if we were to ever get our crap together.

I wasn’t and still isn’t big on Christmas; but she was. Her job was having its annual Christmas potluck the following day so she was in her kitchen burning it down. She was an awesome cook. I was in my home, she was in hers. (She was suffering from bipolarism, so that put a strain on our relationship).

Suddenly, my phone rings and it’s her. She’s crying uncontrollably. All I heard was my head is hurting again. Please come over! I dropped everything! This was the 2nd time this week I had rush to her side. Not knowing this would be our last phone call to each other.

I packed up the Tyler,her 4yr old son, and put him in thebcar first. Then our 2yr old daughter Kennedy into the car next. Her older son had moved in with his father near the Tennessee border. Before walking Vanessa into the car, I turned off all of the burners she had cooking.

Vanessa was also suffering from bad migraines, but she hadn’t had one in quite a while. When we got to the hospital, got checked in, and was called to the back, we were both in great spirits because she was in her comfort zone; the hospital.  So we thought!

As the kids slept,  Vanessa and I actually tried sharing a laugh or two about her food not being done. She was more concerned about feeding her co-workers than her migraine.

Her doctor came in, checked her out and went over some things with her. I can’t honestly say what was said because we’ll use to it. But I did hear the doctor say that she’ll be heading home soon.

After a good time waiting to be released, a nurse walked in. I watched this nurse insert one shot in Vanessa’s left shoulder, walked around her, and inserted another shot in her right.

In 10 seconds, Vanessa fell face first! And that would be the last time we would share a laughed.

The nurse must have hit the panic button because it seconds we were surrounded. They literally kicked the kids and I out the room for over and hour. And at this point, I am sh*** bricks!

The wait was so long that I called my best friend at that time to come sit with me. After what seem to be a lifetimenof waiting, the doctor called me to the back.

In the doctor’s exact words, she said,

“We put her in an induce comma to stop the pains he was suffering from. In the morning, we gonna have a brain doctor come check her out, wake her up,  and send her home!”

Me not knowing anything about medicine, I Fell For It!

About 7ish the following morning, I get a weird phone. It’s her sister from her father side.

“McKey, I’m at the hospital and I could’ve sworn I just saw Vanessa getting into an ambulance.” They said that they’re taking her to Augusta, Ga.” (A little over an hour drive).

I’m calling and calling but no one would give me any answers. I was meet with resistance. Since we weren’t married, they didn’t have to tell me anything. (Even though I’m her only emergency contact)!

By this time, my mom had arrived to my home and took the kids with her. I drove back to the hospital,very fast.

She was indeed gone.

I made some more phone calls to the hospitals in Augusta until I found her. And when I arrived, the doctor there was just as puzzled as I was.

Why is she here? He kept asking me. And I couldnt give him any answers.

For.5 days, I drove back and forth to Augusta just to meet up with this doctor who was more angry then me. He said, I’ve done everything for her at this point. Every test! The final test is up to you.  Allowing me to remove these breathing tunes from her. If she can breath on her own, I will keep fighting for her.

December 23rd, Two days before Christmas, Vanessa lost her life.

Her brother(who’s suffers from substance abuse) wouldn’t allow the hospital to do an autopsy on her because he didn’t want her scarred. Again, because we weren’t married, and even though I’m her emergency contact, and she did not and do not interact with her family at all, I HAD NO SAY SO.

The doctor and I both felt that was a dumb decision.

I, with the help of my mother, paid for everything when it came to her homecoming. We didnt even attend her funeral because of death threats from her side of the family who she didn’t even talk too. Well.at least not in the entire 5.5 yrs we were together.

Not only did I pay for the funeral, but months later, I.paid the cost to adopt her son Tyler( who was a result from a one night stand). His father wouldnt come to court because of a warrant he had for his arrest!

Doing that time, I was working as a correctional officer of 9 yrs. I had to resign because i couldn’t figure out how to be a single father.  All my money was going to daycare.  She was on Medicare and receiving Childcare.  I wasn’t so lucky.  I kept getting denied.

No law firm will take my case cause again, we weren’t married.  I can’t really work cause of child care expenses.  I own and operate a 360videophotobooth business but even that’s tough finding reliable babysitters.

I travel back and forth to SC to pick my brother up; who’s a recovering substance abuser himself, to watch my kids while I go to didn’t events to earn a dollar. But even that gives be bad anxiety.

And to top it off, my suv transmission just went out trying to take my brother back home to make sure he made it to his doctor’s appointment. ($3500)

I love being a business owner.  The freedom to show my kids things and take them places is worth every struggling dollar I make.  But I’m tired.  I’m in my 50s raising a 9yr old and a 6yr old(turning 7 this month), and I’m at my wits end.

Hello, my name is Pedro Aledo, I became a widower two years ago, when my nurse wife, developed blood clots after receiving her Covid shot. She left me with two beautiful children ages 3 and 6 at the time of our loss. I am a mental health therapist who works with foster children and kids who have been traumatized by the loss of a parent or parents to COVID-19 and other tragedies, as well as sexually assaulted and battered children.

I am working on attaining my Mental Health Therapist License which requires many hours of internship where I am paid a reduced rate for the first 1000 hours of practice. My desire is to become licensed by the State of Florida and then continue to receive my Ph.D. in Psychology and open my own business that helps children to find direction toward a family unit after a tragedy in their life has occurred.

I have been fortunate to find a mother in a similar situation as myself, having recently lost her husband, the father of her two children ages 4 and 7 at the time of their loss, to a tragic motorcycle accident. So, you can say that together we fill the missing part of each of our lives and that of our children’s lives. And even though we are taking this process very slowly due to the feelings each holds for their past spouses, we can both appreciate and see how this union would benefit all parties involved and bring much healing.

My needs are simple, I need to bring these families together, much like the “Brady Bunch” sitcom from the past, we believe this to be a match made up in Heaven. I need starting capital to get my business off the ground, while at the same time putting a downpayment on a home that will fit 4 kids, a dog, and 2 adults. I believe that somewhere in the ballpark of $150,000 to $250,000 would help us make this family strong and at the same time help me open a business that will help countless children become part of families that will love them and make them prosperous individuals of our communities. The need in this area is so severe that this business will prosper and continue indefinitely, helping children and families come together and making our communities better places to live in.

In the short time, I have been part of the foster system, I have had the privilege to bring many children together with families that love them and give them the opportunity they did not believe they would ever obtain.

Helping my family will go on to help countless families multiplying blessings upon blessings.

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.

Hello,

My name is Michael and I am requesting some help. I wouldn’t typically even consider this approach but I am in a situation I don’t think I ever saw coming.

A bit of Background on my situation:

in 2017 i suffered an injury while working as an Arborists Assistant where i compressed my spine and herniated 12mm. of soft tissue into my spine. I was paralyzed from the waist down on my right side for over 6 months and spent most of 2018 and early 2019 recovering 80% of the use and feeling from my right foot at the tip of my toes to my hip. I went back to work and was fine for the most part (Here in 2023 and I still have mobility issues that severely limit my performance but I still work) until the pandemic in 2020 brought most of my work to a grinding halt. My Wife and I worked at adapting to the new struggles that came with the “Shut-In” lifestyle that had become the norm in almost everything we did.

We worked through it, Together we achieved what we originally were worried was an unmanageable situation being that she had to find new work and I had to work out a new and reliable source of income as well. Harder still managing all of this while Monitoring my until this time uncontrolled Diabetes that had been slipping under the radar for years until my Insulin production ceased almost entirely during a prolonged incident with an Abcess in my gumline.

The worst seemed behind us and as we stabilized my Teenage children reached out to me interested in getting to know me better, (we had been seperated for 10 years when their mother relocated across the country to live with distant family) So we pooled our resources and got our home ready for the Reunion. Everything was going well, until I got an infection in my lower back in the form of a Pilonidal Cyst. I toughed it out for a few weeks and the infection got so bad that it immobilized me. I had the Drainage Surgery done but my Diabetes made me to high a risk to be put under for Excision.

I changed my lifestyle further, recovering from the initial Drainage procedure and healing process, going to the gym, changing my diet but the road back was harder this time then recovering before from the injury pre-existing in 2017. Shortly after recovery another discovery of Degenerative Disk Disease increased my Recovery time.

My Wife covered every expense she could on her check and my side of the finances were not covering the lack of full employment. We chose to persevere, I recovered and the Kids moved back with their mom until this year in April. We were reunited again and all seemed well, Happy and functioning at what seemed almost 100%.

But as my story has outlined time and again, it wasn’t over. Until it was. With almost no explanation other then “We Didn’t work” and she “wasn’t happy for a long time” , My Wife left with little fanfare or tolling of alarms. She took the car and the better of our paychecks. I was working on temporary assignments trying to bring myself back from a rough series of employment gaps. I landed a Job as she was leaving. and so we come to current events.

 

My Children, My Two Canine companions, and My house are all standing on a knife edge of me getting back to work full time, while going to school for Data Sciences. I have no car which means no way to keep going to work and my neighbors are of limited ability to assist me further (They have been a blessing)

I am Trying to Obtain 5,000.00 Dollars to Cover the expense of a used vehicle and make sure i keep food in the house and the lights on for the first month back to work at a full time job. The Car for daily commuting and everyday running, the electric and the groceries because the children go to school online and everyone needs to eat. I am grateful for any assistance and I am looking toward the future even after everything with hope in my heart that with Perseverance and a bit of Help, that I can get back on my Feet and keep providing for the four out of the five people I Love Most in this world. Blessings to any and all who have read this, and those who choose to help.

 

Thank You Humbly, Michael
