Seeking help for my 8-year-old son dental work

I am usually the person helping others through hard times, so this is hard for me to ask anyone for help.

My son David is terrified of the Dentist, and I must get him put under anaesthetic to get the required help he needs for his teeth due to his anxiety.

We recognised he was born with problems with the enamel on his baby teeth, that decay too easily.

I am currently in debt to the tune of $15k and need $5K for my son’s dental work.

I ran this debt up trying to escape my ex-husband who was emotionally abusive alcoholic, who was horrible to both my son and me.

Part of the debt above was accumulated ($5K) due to previous dental work my son David needed earlier this year because of the enamel on his teeth wearing down and we tried to put in preventative measures to save his adult and other baby teeth. It’s incredibly sad that new holes in his teeth still emerged and cause him pain.

I have since lost my job 2 months ago, and still actively trying to find a new work.

My son’s father won’t help us because he is too focused on his new Thai wife.

I know this might be a long shot, but really hope that there is someone who could help us out.

I have tried very hard trying to keep it together, but I am struggling to keep my head above water now to be strong for my son and get him the proper care he needs.

I feel ashamed that I have got to this position in life and don’t know where else to turn to.

If you are in a position that could help us, I would be so grateful.

God bless you whoever you are and thank you for taking your time to hear our plight.

Desperately need money to continue my paintings.

Hi everyone,hope my letter finds all of you safe and well. My name is Asma Azmir. I am a mother of two little kids. My husband and me, both of us migrated to Australia almost 11years ago to live a better life. Since then we are struggling a lot to live a better and honest life. Both of us work 24/7 rotating shift in different places. Whatever we earn, it all spends quickly because living cost becoming higher and higher here. I am a painter. Painting is my passion. I do paintings in my bedroom after my kids go to sleep. I don’t have any separate space or any other place to do my paintings. We still are tenant, because we don’t have enough money to buy a house. Even though we don’t have any car. We usually use public transport. I finished almost 40 paintings. I have a dream that one day I’ll do painting in my big studio. I am desperately looking for a platform where I can sell my paintings. As I am a new starter, still couldn’t find any luck. Life is becoming harder and harder for me. I couldn’t paint for last one year just to support my family. But now we can’t effort the childcare anymore for my kids, therefore I have to quit my job immediately. Please, really need financial help. My account details: PayPal.me/AAsmama

Help save my mothers home

Hello, this is extremely difficult to write. I am seeking assistance in saving my mothers home. In 2022 her health deteriorated rapidly and she was not able to get out of bed most days. Her doctor was doing testing and scans for months to try to figure out the cause.

 

She is a single mother who has worked her absolute hardest to provide us everything we needed to survive. She broke her ribs and she still worked through the excruciating pain to make sure we had a roof over our heads and food to eat. Six years ago she worked extra hard to save up to finally build her own home. I’ve never seen her so happy and content in my life. For the first time she felt financially secure and like she had finally achieved one of her goals in life. Fast forward six years and she is so sad and emotional and broken by this terrible disease.

 

Her symptoms include; extreme light sensitivity, skin rashes and sores, burning/itching sensation on skin, nausea/vomiting, major food sensitivities, loss of appetite, weight loss, hair loss, shaking, hot and coldness (not able to self regulate her temperature), ulcers in mouth and throat, kidney pain/damage, joint/muscle pain, some days she can barely walk. There’s more I just can’t think of them all.

 

After a lot of testing and waiting for specialist appointments in February 2023 she was diagnosed with severe Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis. She is on a treatment plan but that is constantly changing and if she gets worse there’s a chance she will need chemotherapy to treat the severe Lupus symptoms.

 

She lost her job because she’s not able to work at all. She’s managed to hold on to her home for this long and I am terrified that I’m not able to help save it. I am trying to launch my own business to retire my mum and give my family financial security but I am scared I am not going to be able to save it in time. She has had some defaults to her mortgage and is talking about putting it up for sale soon around Christmas time before the bank decides to for-close. With ongoing constantly changing medication costs and the rate increases and higher cost of living she can not hold on much longer. She may never be able to work again and requires carers and physiotherapy and cleaners. Our family and I are helping her as much as we can but we aren’t able to support the house for much longer. If I could buy it I would but I’m not in that financial position yet.

 

She has never had a lot but she has been kind and helpful to everyone she comes across. She has always helped friends, family and strangers in need wherever she could. She opened up her home and gave people in need food and shelter. She was by my side when I nearly lost my premature baby. She prayed with us and helped look after my other 2 children who love their ‘grammy’ very much. It has been so horrible seeing her so ill and she deserves her home that she worked so hard to get.

She has always taught our family to be kind and help others wherever the opportunity presents itself and to always pay it forward. It is terrifying me that I’m not yet able to pay her back for everything she’s done to help me and everyone who she showed kindness to. She doesn’t deserve to lose her home. Please help her, I don’t know what to do. I just want to retire my mother so she can live comfortably in her home in peace and get the care and medications she needs without the financial burden and stress that she has lived with her entire life.

I have never asked my money in my life and this is something that I wish I did not need to resort to. My dream has always been to achieve financial security for my family and it keeps me up at night knowing that I’m not doing a good enough job. I am working as hard as I can and I hope that one day I can help many people achieve their goals in life. If you would like to give something towards her bills or medication or mortgage that would be such a blessing to her. paypal.me/AJHerbert3

‘m in dire straits, overwhelmed by financial hardships and uncertainty.

My life has become a turbulent storm of financial hardships, compounded by the weight of mental health issues and deep-seated trauma. As I reach out for financial assistance through donations, I’m reminded that our struggles often run deeper than the surface, and they are interconnected in ways that make each challenge feel insurmountable.
It’s not easy to put into words the complex web of difficulties that I face. My journey through this ordeal began when I was confronted by a crippling mental health crisis. Anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder have cast a long shadow over my life. These invisible battles have made even the simplest of daily tasks seem like insurmountable mountains.
In the grip of these mental health challenges, I found it increasingly difficult to maintain stable employment. The relentless emotional turmoil, coupled with the debilitating impact of past traumas, rendered me incapable of holding down a job. The decline in my mental well-being was matched only by the rapid descent of my financial situation.
Unemployment left me unable to meet my basic needs, let alone address the ever-mounting medical bills and debts. The vicious cycle of mental health struggles and financial instability seemed inescapable, each issue exacerbating the other in a relentless feedback loop.
I decided to turn to online platforms for financial assistance. Sharing my story in the hope of receiving donations was a deeply personal and vulnerable endeavor. I knew that I was not alone in my experiences, but it still felt like a monumental step to publicly acknowledge my struggles.
My campaign wasn’t just about money; it was about connection and understanding. I shared my story, the daily battles that no one could see, the trauma that haunted my past, and the overwhelming weight of my current circumstances. It was an act of revealing my vulnerability to strangers in the hopes of finding a lifeline.
My story underscores the interconnectedness of mental health and financial hardship and the enduring potential for empathy and unity. It serves as a testament to the power of sharing one’s vulnerability and the remarkable capacity of strangers to come together, transcending physical and emotional distances, to provide a glimmer of hope and healing in the midst of adversity.
I’m in dire straits, overwhelmed by financial hardships and uncertainty. Please, if you can spare anything, offer your help and support. Your assistance can make a profound difference in my life during this challenging time. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

HELP ME, I’M FALLING APART

Hello everyone, my name is Sebastian.

I write these letters with the sole intention of sharing with you my story and my current situation.

I’m a guy from South America, trying to achieve my dreams. Since I was little I have always liked cinema, unfortunately it is not an easy profession to study in my country. Despite my few resources, I decided to take the risk of pursuing my dreams. So with all the fear in the world I took a student loan to come to New Zealand to study English, and later study film. 10 months ago I came to Oceania with a student loan on my shoulders, but with the conviction that the best investment is the one you make yourself, for your development, knowledge and learning.

I’m not going to deny that I fell in love with the country. but reality has hit me unexpectedly. From the beginning I knew that the loan would not be enough, so I thought that an after-school job could help my situation. After almost 7 months living in New Zealand, I just had realized that I couldn’t be further from the truth. Although I have tried to be as frugal as possible since my arrival, I no longer have any money, and I am only halfway through the student year and half that I paid in advance. I’m not going to lie to you guys, it’s the first time in my life that I’ve asked for help like this, but today I find myself with 0.97 cents in my account and 2 cans of beans in my kitchen. The truth is a desperate and terrifying situation.
I have already borrowed money from friends and family, my debt amounts to 66,089.07 US dollars. But I have no one else to turn to.
To you, who are reading these letters, I ask you to please help me achieve my dreams, help me put food in my kitchen, not to abandon my dreams. You don’t know me, but I swear that once I achieve my dreams, I will pay foward, helping whoever life puts in front of me, because I know what it feels like to have nothing and be in need.

No matter how small your contribution is, it will be a huge help. Well at least it will help me continue fighting one more day….

Important: Paypal website didn’t show me the option to create the link to paypal.me, please for help seek my email account: sebastianart2891@gmail.com

sincerely

Sebastian

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

Help Me to Reunite with My Family and Secure a Better Future

Paths don’t create travellers; it is the travellers who create their own paths. In our life sometimes we take steps to better our way of living. This innovates ways of how we can do that. I, David, a 34-year-old man from Bangladesh, have come here in Australia with a heart full of dreams and determination. I hail from a third-world country where life has been a constant struggle for me and my family. In search of a brighter future, spending all my savings, I made a courageous decision to move to a first-world country on a student visa. However, this journey has been fraught with challenges.

My Story:

My decision to pursue higher education in a first-world country was driven by my aspiration for a better life, not only for myself but for my beloved wife and young daughter back in my home country. Upon arriving in the new country, I faced the harsh reality of living expenses, including university fees, which I struggle to afford without a stable job. The burden of tuition fees has grown heavier with each passing semester. The most heart-wrenching aspect of my journey is the separation from my wife and daughter. I now yearn to reunite with them, but the cost of bringing them to a foreign land is an unbearable financial burden for me. Back in my home country, my family is enduring hardships due to my absence. My wife, who is trying to make ends meet, is struggling to provide for their daughter’s basic needs and education.

 

What I Seek:

I am seeking compassionate support to:

Cover my outstanding university fees, ensuring that I can continue my education and secure a better future.

Facilitate the safe and legal reunification of my wife and daughter with me in Australia, sparing them from the challenges they face in homeland.

Alleviate the financial burdens on my family back home, including providing for my daughter’s education and well-being.

Establish a stable foundation for my family’s future, where they can build a life free from the hardships they currently endure.

I am actively seeking assistance from generous individuals, charitable organizations, and communities that value the importance of family and education. Your compassionate contribution can make a world of difference in my life and the lives of my wife and daughter. By donating to my cause, you can help me achieve my educational goals, reunite with his family, and provide them with a brighter and more secure future. Your support will not only change our lives but also inspire hope in a man who is striving to overcome obstacles and create a better life for his loved ones. Just as small drops of water can make an ocean, so together, we can make a difference in my journey towards a brighter future.

 

No amount is too small.

Thanking you in advance

David

Funeral costs

   My father has always been my hero. A man who was raised from the dust of the red Australian dirt and salt of the earth. He raised 3 kids all while traveling the country, sacrificing his life for us as a truck driver. Now, at the age of 78 he has been diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, with up to one month to live. This came as a shock to us and shattered our hearts to find out how little time we had left, before saying goodbye. I  on a full disability and have no way of fullfilling my father’s wishes of a creation and simple ceremony. He helped build this country and I’m begging that others like him, other Aussie battlers can help me bury him with the dignity he deserves.Thank You,

My PayPal is:  maree.1968@yahoo.com

I also pledge after i bury my Dad, I will pay it forward.
