Financial Crisis due to Doctor Neglect & Out of Support Options.

Hello,

I am reaching out here in the hopes of getting some help when it seems I’ve run out of options.

I’ve been fighting with doctors the entirety of my life and now that I’m 30, my body can no longer “tough it out”. To be honest, I’m mentally maxed out at this point too. I’ve been trying to find a sustainable job and applying for any financial assistance programs out there but I’m consistently being denied. Too disabled/limited to be considered for most jobs but supposedly too “abled” to qualify for disability supports.

Health issues:

  • Herniated disc -> strict limitations on holding any one position due to proximity to a nerve.
  • Chronic migraines -> unpredictable functioned day to day
  • Moderately severe gastritis -> unpredictable agitation
  • Severe menstrual pain
  • Chronic knee pain -> limits standing or walking for long periods
  • ADHD, depression, and anxiety
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Sleep Apnea -> need a CPAP machine, but it’s not covered under provincial health insurance. Typically costs $2000. Apparently being able to breath and sleep isn’t considered a basic need judging by limited supports.
  • Chronic Fatigue -> worsened by sleep apnea and the other health issues

Unable to find maintainable work and support, I have a credit card with $15,000 owing. I lack a reliable form of transportation due to an encounter with black ice a couple months ago, mostly stranding me on a farm with my partner’s family. Thankfully they have been lovely enough to take me in during my toughest times, but I have no way of offering rent to compensate.

Currently, I’m trying to find ways to create my own income using my diploma in fashion design. My mobility issues have thus far proven a barrier to finding work in the industry. Thank you for taking the time to read about my situation and any help you are able to offer is genuinely appreciated.

Coming Home

Dear kind donors,

I have a tale to tell you. I hope by the time you read my story, you are willing to help me fulfill my wish this coming Christmas. My name is Paul. I lives in Canada. Many years ago I met my soul mate online. We had plans to get married within five years but we ran into a huge financial emergency.  We were separated in 2015. Audrey, my fiancee, needed to remain in Africa to attend her family. They lived in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria. Three months later her family was robbed and they lost everything. I helped them out as best as I can but I had reached my limit.  We heard about how kind and generous you are. This is one of the reasons why we came to you for help.

We need to start over. We hope you can help us get started. Audrey need $50,000 right away so she could recover her travel papers, air fare and enough funding for her family to leave Nigeria and resettle elsewhere where it would be safe and secured. This money will help us get to the next step of our plans. If you are willing to help us, we will be forever grateful for your donations to our cause. Thank you for your time and attention regarding this matter.

Best regards,

Audrey P. and Paul K.

ex nurse fired over mandate struggling

Hi i got fired as a nurse right after I graduated in 2021, and ever since then i have had to work so much at 20$/hr just to keep my head above water. I am truthfully exhausted, and trying to leave a toxic job behind and currently focused on starting my own nursing practice as well as building two businesses. I promise to give to this website if somebody gives to me here. I felt super depressed the last week and I don’t have enough to cover rent tomorrow. I don’t have anyone I can lean on, any helping hand had strings attached to it there were usually abuse of power. I have two cats and a dog that i feed meat before i feed myself. I have been living off pizza mostly since September. I am certain my life will get better I am a resilient person with strong work ethic, and I will pray for whoever gifts me this blessing 10x more blessings in return. I humbly and kindly ask to please be gifted to receive $2000.00 please please please and i thank you so much in return infinitely and really pray that you are blessed.

Urgent request for help – Unemployed and tenants destroyed my home

Hello beautiful people!

This is the first time I have ever asked for assistance. I am grateful for you reading my post and for considering a donation to me and my situation.

I have been unemployed for over a year and underemployed for 2 years. I was working up in the Arctic but then my assignment ended over COVID.  Upon my return, my tenants refused to leave my house. I am in debt of over 60K due to them not paying rent and destroying my home. I am back in my home but the repairs, the bills, and the interest on the debt I accumulated while living in Air BNBs is destroying my mental health.

I live alone with one small dog. I have sent out many resumes each week but finding employment in Canada is very different than in the States, where I am originally from. I spend hours each week writing great cover letters only to get no responses. I am well-versed in administration and finance but I think the gap in my employment, my age, and ‘the times we find ourselves in’ are making me unemployable. I have worked since I was 15 and am now in my 50s. I have never been unemployed in my life until recently. I know this is many people’s story.

I am trying to start a business, I am trying to eat less, I don’t travel anywhere and don’t got out as I cannot afford a snack out with friends. I no longer own a car and so I take public transportation.

I would be so grateful if anyone out there is able to help support me, even in the smallest way. I have lived on credit these past few years but I am running out of space on my line of credit and without a job, the bank won’t work with me.

Much love to you and yours during these difficult times and during this festive season we are upon.

Blessings.

Gambling Recovery

Hello all, I feel a little cowardly to be on a website asking for money for this but here is my situation.

I am an 18-year-old university student who has been struggling with gambling since I was 15 years old.

I have been losing every dime I made for the last 3 almost 4 years and I have now decided to make a change in my life.  (a little late I know)

At one point in time, I was stealing money from my father (who isn’t a great guy either but besides the point)

Addiction therapy where I live is not cheap (about $200 a session) and I currently am making what I can being a part-time business owner or side gig of detailing cars while also attending classes.  it averages out to about 500-700 a month.

This is to cover groceries and gas monthly (my parents pay my rent of $800)

I am currently about $2100 in credit card debt (and rapidly increasing)

I know this sounds like a pity paragraph and I agree I’d look at it that way too.  My goal is to continue therapy and pay my dad back by the end of the year, so if you have gone through any situation like this and can find it in your heart thank you.

I’m gambling free for about 12 days now and I feel great, I’ve paid for 1 therapy session myself but I won’t be able to sustain it.

Thank you for your time.

URGENT NEED of DENTAL TREATMENT

This is Mar and Diego writing to ask for your help. We’re in a really tough spot right now and could use your support.

We both desperately need root canal treatments, which will cost around $850 CAD each, so $1700 for both of us total. Unfortunately we don’t have dental insurance to cover any of the costs.

The pain in our teeth has gotten unbearable. It’s making everyday tasks a real struggle and is really taking a toll on our health. We’re worried it may get worse if we can’t get treated soon.

Unfortunately, neither of us has $850 to pay for the procedures upfront. We’ve been trying to manage on our own but the pain just keeps getting worse. We’re at our wit’s end and don’t know how much more we can take.

We’re asking if anyone may be able to donate any amount to help us reach our goal. Every little bit would make a difference and go towards getting the dental care we need to finally stop suffering.

If you can help in any way, please let us know. Thank you for taking the time to read our message – it really means a lot. We hope together with your support we can get the treatment we need.

Thanks so much,
Mar and Diego

Dental Implant Surgery

My story unfolds like a poignant novel, weaving together the threads of resilience, survival, and the ongoing struggle for a brighter future. Seven years of battling drug addiction, surviving abuse, and enduring the trauma of rape have left indelible marks on my journey. The scars may not be visible to the naked eye, but they manifest in the form of deteriorating teeth, a cruel reminder of the challenges I have faced.

The need for dental surgery, particularly full dental implants, becomes a pivotal chapter in my quest for normalcy. In Canada, where I reside, the cost surpasses $50,000, a staggering sum that seems insurmountable. The financial burden is an unexpected consequence of a turbulent past, and the weight of it is substantial. The stark contrast with the more affordable option in Mexico, where the procedure costs over $15,000, adds an additional layer to my decision-making process.

My journey, marked by six years of sobriety, is a testament of my strength. Landing a job and accruing savings despite the odds showcases a determination to rebuild my life. However, the financial strain of dental care remains a significant obstacle. The irony that the aftermath of addiction, abuse, and trauma manifests in a physical impediment – the inability to afford dental treatment – is a cruel twist in my path to recovery.

The consequences of my dental struggles extend beyond the cosmetic. The inability to consume solid food has transformed my diet into a liquid regimen, a compromise that not only affects my nutritional intake but also triggers gut and digestive issues. The toll on my body is evident, and malnourishment becomes an additional challenge in my journey towards holistic well-being.

The juxtaposition of my current state – grappling with the aftermath of trauma, financial constraints, and the physical limitations imposed by my dental health – paints a picture of a survivor continuously navigating a maze of challenges. Each aspect of my story is a chapter in the narrative of resilience, where the fight for healing extends far beyond overcoming addiction. It involves reclaiming agency over my body, mending wounds both seen and unseen, and seeking a semblance of normalcy in a life marked by adversity.

As I stand at these crossroads, may the next chapters of my story be marked by the compassion of others. As I grapple with the weight of dental woes, my journey remains a testament to resilience, determination, and the ongoing pursuit of a better tomorrow. In facing the daunting cost of dental surgery, I am not merely mending teeth; I am mending the fragments of a life once shattered by addiction, bravely crafting a brighter future, one smile at a time.

On Disability (ODSP) and need repairs after car was broken into and am now taking care of my son full-time instead of 50%

Hello, I’m currently on Disability (ODSP) and need repairs after car was broken into and am now taking care of my son full-time instead of 50%.

Some of the repairs to my car have completed; however I still have approx. $1,200 left to finish. I only have a car because of a Custody agreement for my son in where I’m responsible for all transportation for him.

Also now that I have him full-time I now have to cover food, clothes and everything else. His mother is currently have a mental health emergency and the last time this happened I had him for almost 5 months straight.

With ODSP and CCTB I only receive 50% of the funding as his mother receives the rest. This does not even come close to cover the cost of food and other necessities.

Please help if possible as everything helps!

Thanks

Need Help! I am a young entrepreneur who is trying to survive.

I am a young entrepreneur who is trying to survive during the slower months and honestly, it’s been difficult. I live by myself and the cost of living has made things hugely difficult to pay things off, live and have a normal life. Working countless hours to search for clients has made me extremely tired and I need help raising money to give me the boost I need to find solutions to grow and soon scale.

I really don’t want a second job, I want to go all in and make my dream into a reality. I want to scale my agency across Canada to the USA. I also believe in community and giving back and every month I give to my charity.

I really need your help to keep my dream going. Not only you are helping me and my business, you are also helping other businesses grow with my design services and the people to whom I donate every month.

Your donations would mean everything to me and to my clients. This isn’t just a business for me; it’s a passion and a dream that I’ve never thought possible. Still blows my mind to this day! 

Thank you!

Seeking help after facing tax fraud

Last year was incredibly difficult for me after discovering I had been a victim of tax fraud. In 2021, an unknown perpetrator hacked my personal information and used it to file a fraudulent tax return with the Canadian tax authorities. Ever since discovering the identity theft, the impacts have been immense.

Dealing with the aftermath of having my identity stolen has been a full-time job in itself. I have spent countless hours on calls and filling out paperwork to try and resolve the issues with both the fraudulent return and properly submitting my own authentic returns. However, the government processing of these matters moves at an unfortunately slow pace. As a result, I have fallen severely behind on payments.

To make matters worse, while wading through the red tape of identity recovery, I received an additional blow – a diagnoses of an immune disorder. This new medical condition means I cannot sustain my regular work hours or duties. Just as my income streams were faltering due to the tax predicament, my health deteriorated – further weakening my financial stability.

My strained financial situation has negative ripple effects, too. I am responsible for child support payments monthly. And as the primary breadwinner , the full weight of household costs are on me alone. Between  taxes, debt and basic living expenses, the pressure has become unbearable.

I am at a true crisis point and desperately need help getting back on stable footing. Any assistance to pay down accumulated debts and obligations would provide significant relief during this overwhelming season. I appreciate any consideration of support through my PayPal account.

 

Thank you very much

Please  help me, i never ask much in my life.

i served my country and it feels i get nothing back

Avoiding Homelessness

I’d like to start by saying thank you for taking the time to hear me out. I’ll be blunt so I take as little of your time as possible.

I need $5,000 to avoid being homeless just in time for a cold, miserable winter.

Who you’re helping: you can call me Seven if you’d like a name for the cause. I am one of two queer young adults living in a household together. I am also disabled, with chronic pain and several conditions that make work difficult for me, though I am searching.

The situation: We were living in an area with minimum-wage jobs, middle-class rent, and upper-class grocery prices. I, the main provider in the household, was unable to make ends meet. I had to do things I am not proud of just so we could eat, and we still couldn’t pay the bills. We ended up moving a few weeks ago to go somewhere milk, rice, and eggs doesn’t cost $25 plus tax, with the promise of cheap housing and a job for my friend when we arrived. The house is more expensive than we were told, and the job is not available for a few months. We also had to move suddenly, and our old landlord is demanding two months rent from us (neither of those months are backpay) as well as withholding the entirety of our damage deposit. I do not have the money to fight this; I do not want to fight it. I want to pay her and never think about it again. The only job that has called me back would be an excellent opportunity for me to work from home, no longer destroying my body for minimum wage and ensuring I can work more— but it requires nearly a thousand dollars of my own money to take a course and an exam to be licensed.

The money that I am asking for is going to cover four things: the rent the old landlord is demanding; the new places rent; the phone bill that I have not been able to pay for several months; and the licensing so that I can break out of this cycle of working as much overtime as possible to avoid starving. People talk about life changing money. This $5,000 is lifesaving money for myself and my friend.

My PayPal is PayPal.me/mxtoucey. My ko-fi is ko-fi.com/that_toucey-boy. I appreciate any and all help I can get, and I hope that I reached out in time.  Thank you.

Support Us by Investing in Dental and Physical Health and Business

Hello!

Hope this finds you well :)

I want to thank you for reading my essay. I do appreciate you taking the time out of your day to do so.

I have come across some unforeseen challenges.

While testing my resilience and determination, I find myself facing dental and medical expenses, lawyers’ fees, and the desire to start an entrepreneurial business.

I humbly appeal to your compassion, your kindness, and your ability to help. Your support can make a significant impact on my life and on our community.

Health is important for a fulfilling life; unfortunately, I have run into some unexpected medical issues and expenses that can take down careful planning.

Your assistance would provide me and my husband with dental help (check-up, cleaning, x-rays, fillings, and a crown), we currently do not have any insurance.

By investing in our health, you would be supporting us as individuals, and I will be able to volunteer again in my community.

Beyond our health, I wish to establish a business which can pay for this in the future, a healthy diet, and work from home, as our other health issues prevent us from going out to work (My husband’s hands and my body stability). So it would also help us to access necessary treatments, medications, and healthcare services not covered by OHIP, along with time for recuperation after our operations.

The lawyers’ fees are from a death in the family where I was being sued by someone in the will with which I was an Executrix.

With your financial support, I aim to turn my business vision into a reality, thereby securing our own future and also contributing to the prosperity of those around us.

Investing in a business is not just about monetary returns; it is about investing in ideas, potential, and the promise of positive change. Your contribution would be a financial investment, and also help with my confidence in building an online business with my mentor, and with my ability to bring about positive changes.

Again I appeal to your generosity to consider supporting me in my pursuit of health and entrepreneurship.

By contributing to our dental and medical expenses, fees, and business endeavors, you would be aiding us as individuals and investing in the potential for positive change for the community around us.

Thank you so much for your consideration.

Please see below for a breakdown:

Dental: $5,000
Health: $50,000
Lawyer Fees: $55,000
Business: $10,000
Total: $120,000

Unemployed and struggling to Pay Rent and Groceries

Hi everyone,

Several months ago I lost my job, they lay me off and just told me that I’m not fit for the role. When I asked them why, they refused to specify to cover their side legally so that I couldn’t take them to court. I worked in customer service for years and so when I finally landed a lower level corporate job, it finally felt like I was making it in life as a 25 year old. They let me go right before my probation period ended, and did not have any sort of discussion with me as to whether I was underperforming.

It really brought me down as it was the first time I got layoff for a job I actually enjoyed. The rejection hit me hard as I couldn’t identify why they let me go, doubting my abilities and it lead me into a deep depression. I have finally managed to change my perspective and understand that them letting me do was a huge blessing. Rejection is redirection. It just means the universe was trying to guide me in a better direction that I deserve.

I have been applying to all sorts of jobs, but haven’t had much leads. I have been applying through all sorts of platforms and messaging employers via email and Linkedin but so far, nothing. I am running out of time with my employment insurance (ei), only 2 and a half months left on ei.

Ei does not cover all my bills, so I have been collecting debt just to pay for my basic needs like groceries and public transit.

I am a single South Asian woman who moved out of my parents place 2 and a half years ago due to abusive parents. I now struggle with C-ptsd due to early childhood trauma, and ever since my parent became physically abusive with me, it pushed me to move out and live on my own. I tried living with roommates to lower my costs, but it didn’t work out as that too became an unhealthy environment for me to live in. The landlord/roommate sub-leaded the room to me, I didn’t find out till my contract was nearly up with them that they weren’t even the owner of the house. This would have been very important information to have known in the beginning. On top of that, I wasn’t aware that their partners would come over nearly everyday, and lets just say the walls were not sound proof. Constant arguments between the couples was very triggering for me. I don’t mean bickering, but screaming, cursing fights. Even when I had conversations with them, they still couldn’t keep the noise level down. Thats when I decided that it was just best for me to live safely on my own.

The cost of living has gone up due to inflation and I cannot simply move back in with my parents as most people have considering my parents are not safe individuals to live with. I have been in therapy for years to work on my mental health and learn to work with my triggers and traumas, eager to change my life and turn things around. To end the cycle of trauma in my family. However, now that I am unemployed, I now struggle to pay for therapy too.

I cannot go to other relatives for help as they all gaslight my situation, they refuse to believe my parents are abusive (parents pretend to be on their best behaviour). They refuse to accept the abuse, neglect, and sexual trauma I have experienced for several years. I have accepted that I am the black sheep of the family and that I’m ultimately on my own.

There is no room in the homeless shelters in Ontario as they are overcrowded. There are many individuals such as refugees living on the streets. It gets super cold in the winter time, which makes the homelessness crisis in the GTA even worse.

I am determined to keep going, but I need assistance to pick myself backup. I kindly ask for a donation of $10,000 in order to pay off the debt I’ve collected and to cover my basic needs like rent and groceries.. I know that’s a lot to ask for, therefore even any smaller donation such as $5 is greatly appreciated.

I have fought this long to survive and fight for my freedom, I owe it to myself to keep going but I need financial help. God bless anyone kind enough to donate.

Urgent financial assistance request for college fees

I am writing to you with a humble and sincere request for financial assistance to cover my college fees. At the age of 23, I find myself at a critical juncture in life where the pursuit of further education is crucial for my personal and professional growth.

For the past five years, I have dedicated myself to working tirelessly to support my family and alleviate the burden of debt that my parents have shouldered. While I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to my family’s well-being, it has left me in a challenging financial situation, hindering my ability to pursue higher education.

Despite my commitment to work, I harbor a deep-seated desire to break free from the cycle of laborious factory work. I believe that returning to school is not only an investment in my own future but also an opportunity to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to escape the limitations of my current circumstances.

The funds I am seeking will be exclusively allocated to cover my college fees, enabling me to enroll in a program that aligns with my aspirations and provides a pathway to a more fulfilling and sustainable career. Your support will not only alleviate the financial burden on me but will also empower me to pursue a brighter future.

I understand the gravity of financial commitments, and it is with utmost sincerity that I reach out to you for assistance. I am committed to working diligently towards my educational goals and, in turn, giving back to the community that has supported me.

I kindly request you to consider my plea for financial aid and support my journey towards a better future. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant impact on my ability to access education and break free from the constraints of my current circumstances.

Thank you for taking the time to read my request. I am more than willing to provide any additional information or answer any questions you may have. Your generosity will not only transform my life but will contribute to the creation of a better and more empowered community.

“Urgent Plea: “ I fear to be running out of time and would like to reunite with My Mother once again After a Decade, even if it is only for a couple of weeks”

Dear Kind-hearted people;

My name is Luis, I’m a 61-year-old man, Married, and a proud father of twin boys, battling some health issues that have kept me from full-time work for several years now, I would like to see and hug my 82-year-old mother, whom I haven’t seen in a little over a decade (since my twin boys were born), COVID-19 restrictions have cruelly made this separation even longer not to mentioned that sadly I am unable to travel with my kids to where my mother is (Venezuela) and expose my children to the dangers that we could encounter there and also because of the trip cost will be much higher, I certainly do not  know how many chances we will have to be reunited, hopefully, this will not be the last one, but meanwhile, time continues to slip away,

My twin boys have never seen her in person or been with their Grandma(They have only interacted on WhatsApp), not even for a single day and they continuously ask to go and see her, so for the past 3 years I have been trying to save as much money as my already beat-up budget allows me to in order to bring my mother to a safe area where we can meet and spend at least a couple of weeks together, I have succeeded in gathering pennies here and there to save more than half the total expenses, after long research and taking in consideration my mother’s age and travel conditions, we agreed to meet in the Dominican Republic where obtaining a Visa is most favorable for her and the flying time is shorter,  so we started planning and we have been filled with excitement about the possibility of this reunion.

This urgent need is what rendered me here on this site, I’m pleading for your kind hearts to help me bridge this distance. Every contribution, no matter how small, is a giant step towards embracing my mother once more. Your kindness can turn these lost years into treasured moments and memorable times. Please, if you can, help reunite us before time or any other unexpected events steal this chance forever.

I am and always will be forever Grateful,

Sincerely

Luis
