19 homeless I need help.

A26EE937-B1DD-4B4D-8B4D-F7B54233E7B4.jpegSo my name is Toby, I’m 19 years old, to explain my situation and let you guys know why I really really need this help let me explain… it all started in the very beginning my parents were together lived with my brothers and one sister then boom she cheated dad went to jail lived with my mom she got on drugs and I went homeless at 11 years of age, then eventually made my way into foster care I’ve been in 7 homes All the way to this age 19 where I finally ran away after getting a car because the parents were beating me so badly and no leaving any visible marks well kinda but there methods left my body sore and hurting in the inside and they used the monthly foster care checks in the wrong manner. Anyways I ran away I am now currently homeless and I sleep in my car and yes it’s rough my whole life stored into this car I sleep in the drivers seat and barely get to lay it back due to the car full of stuff so I wake up sore everyday, being so isolated and beating in foster care and steadily moving around I never got a chance to build up friend groups and also Covid affecting a lot so I have literally no one my own brothers and sister went through the same thing we are all in similar situation just fighting to survive in life with no parents and no one who cares for us but us helping out where we can but still not enough. It’s hard to shower do laundry or anything in my car dirty laundry gets store into a bag and I shower at a truck stop which is so inconvenient because my town is smaller well we have a college here but no many travelers so one truck stop with the only showers is 30 mins out from where I stay and cost $7 so the trip all around cost close to $30 just to shower, that’s gas and shower price not soap included. Honestly I really need money from someone with a heart out there so I can finally have enough to get an apartment, I’m behind on paying my car insurance I currently have none and get tickets over and over and over because I can’t afford it get it and also my tags are expired which I can’t get tags until I have insurance so that’s all messed up as well. If I’m behind honest $1,000 will probably get me an apartment or at least pay the Downpayment but currently I need rough $2,000-$5,000 to help me out and get me into a good position and stable place in life. The hospital picture I put up there is also what I want to explain, my asthma’s so bad and being homeless this winter really screwed me over I couldn’t afford the $320 inhaler or the $250 nebulizer treatment medicine which I really really need in the winter or this happens… let me get further into this one, my lungs were inflaming every minute every hour and I eventually stopped breathing after two days of struggling so bad having my head up in the air trying to breathe and feeling like I’m drowning when I’m sleep in my car, my body went into some sort of shock if I didn’t call the ambulance I wouldn’t of made it because I was dead by time they got to me all I remember is things slowly going black and I past out due to no oxygen in my lungs or getting to my brain, that’s what the nurses told me I woke up in the ambulance and they said I died and called just in time or I would of not made it to live another day, my insurance won’t cover any of my medicine or medical cost so that’s another thing I’m struggling with, I’m still fighting my asthma everyday and it gets worse at night time and in the morning when it’s really cold I’m wheezing so bad and it feels like I’m breathing through a tiny coffee straw, all I need to fix it is, $320 for one inhaler and $250 for the nebulizer treatment medicine which I have the machine for it just no liquid. Well this pretty much wraps up my story and the situation I’m currently in, please please if there is anyone out there with a heart that understands it’s not every homeless person fault that they are homeless and don’t be quick to judge someone and what they been through please I desperately need this help, I’m a sober person with a good head on my shoulders I will never give up I have nothing but good I’m my heart and I wanna do good and make it somehere in life and be successful just someone please help me overcome this, sadly without money no one can be successful in todays world you can be happy no matter what position your in depending your mindset but still no one’s happy sleeping in there car it’s a forced happiness to the mindset to tell yourself everything okay and keep doing what you can everyday to benefit you and you will definitely %100 make it somewhere. So please once again I know there is someone out there that is willing to help me and this is an emergency and I mean a emergency I need this help I need it so bad it would be a blessing from god if someone would do this for me 🙏

Forearm crutches would help me regain independence and mobility without shame.

I was in a car accident in 2012 that left me with nerve damage, which in turn causes extreme sciatica, and numbness in my legs (mostly the right). In 2020, I got pregnant and had my son, and my pain has only gotten worse and worse. Now, it is hard for me to stand or walk for more than 30 minutes without excruciating pain.

I’ve talked to my doctor about my pain so many times, and the only thing they ever offer are pain meds, which aren’t going to solve my issue, or a walker. I’ve tried using a walker, and it doesn’t help my pain. A walker has a much lower center of gravity, and earnestly only increases my pain.

A few months ago, I tried a pair of forearm crutches a friend of mine has for their own medical needs. It was like being able to really comfortably walk again for the first time in years. The pressure was off all of the right places. We went around a store for over an hour, which I haven’t been able to do without stopping in years.

When I told my doctor I wanted him to prescribe forearm crutches, he told me more or less he “only does that for more severe cases”. Despite me telling him that it was a way to decrease my pain and increase my mobility without medication.

I cannot afford them on my own. Low income doesn’t even cover it. Myself, my partner, and our son have never really recovered financially after 2021 and the start of the real recession. My doctor won’t prescribe them even though my insurance would, because he doesn’t think my pain is “enough” to need them. It feels like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place, because there aren’t other doctors I can go to that are accepting patients or accessible, and even if I did I would likely need to go through months or years of doing redundant therapies to even be able to advocate enough for myself to get firearm crutches even though I KNOW they help.

I would just like to be able to move around comfortably. I know what I’m asking for is a lot, or it is to me, anyway. The crutches I tried, that were perfect for me because they have a knee rest and allowed me to rest one leg at a time when pins and needles were intense, are the Ergobaum 7th Generation Prime crutches. They range from $219+tax, to $249+tax for the standard ones. I don’t care what color. I would be immeasurably happy with even the cheapest of them.

I feel so incredibly ashamed that something that isn’t even $250 is entirely out of my reach. Every penny my family has right now goes to bills, or fixing our car, which is about to die, and taking care of my son. I don’t even eat every day right now. At this rate it feels like I’ll never be able to afford the devices that would let me be useful again. I could do more jobs. I could go on walks with my son. I could do more than watch out my window and wish.

If you’re feeling generous, please consider donating towards helping me with being able to walk again without being in pain.

Be my miracle worker!

So let me just start with saying, most of my life I have been the miracle worker in people’s lives. I don’t know why I am so driven towards being kind and helping people. Having blind trust and faith to a fault. Going off a whim to help someone and just risk my own everything so I can attempt to see them become happier, and more content than they were.

I have always deeply desired to help change the world, in a peaceful, and calm way.

I don’t want to control the world. I want to bring peace to every person. I want us to be working on evolutionary change, revolutionary creations!

Most of my life, while being extremely giving when I have mere nothing already for myself.

I also have been dealt some really horrible cards too.

When I turned 5, my parents forced a pill down my throat. Thus I took medication starting then until I was 18. Looking back at it, I was a high as a kite and I didn’t even need the medication.

When I was 9, my adoptive parents divorced and I was involved in everything entirely. I found out I was adopted at 15.

At 17  I went to pick up my friend from his girlfriend’s house while we were in high school. After I picked him up we went to a car wash and before I could get out, I was swamped with cop cars and being pulled out of my vehicle. I didn’t know what to do. I thought I’d be fine because my grandfather was a cop  and I didn’t do anything wrong to begin with so I should be fine!. yeah right… I went to jail for a crime I didn’t even commit (burg of habitat). And later on served prison time for something I’m innocent of… Thanks grandpa! 😒

I’ve been pushed and shoved down left and right (not physically).

So much has happened to me that I feel and know I didn’t deserve. Yet I still keep going.

I still keep pushing through. Because the hard times have made me stronger. And brought me to the person I am today.

 

As much as I dislike begging, and I don’t like to ask for money more than anything. .

I have done my Google search and this website was a result.

I have been struggling lately the past year, and haven’t even paid my rent to my mother, barely eating anything, and having to deal with my vehicles being stolen and damaged.

I have lost 35 lbs in the last year. Going from 195lbs to 150lbs.

I have teeth that need to be pulled at a dentist very soon. My mouth hurts so much some days. Nothing else matters except that pain.

 

I’m not on my medication anymore. And it’s been hard adjusting without.

Anyways back to this.

I am here to ask anyone if they can help me out. I am really bad at asking for something like this. Tired of being hungry and stressed about paying my attorney and paying for dental work.

My dental work would cost me a couple thousand for removal and implants.

My attorney has asked me to finish paying him $4,000. To get my case dismissed. I’ve already paid him $21,000.  In the last 2 years.

So basically

If someone wanted to read this and have the ability to help me.

I want to ask you for $8,000. So I can pay for dental work, attorney fees, and a grocery store visit for the month so I can have the energy to get my mind back in a healthy standing to get things taken care of again. I’ve had a set back, but that’s just showing me how strong I really am and how much I have to offer this world.

In need of monetary assistance for rent and other neccessities

Hello everyone. I am a 23-year-old woman who needs money for rent and necessities (food, etc.). I am sure you are all wondering why which is a long story. I was born and raised in a religious occult and was never taught how or allowed to do work outside of traditional “housewife” work. I was also never allowed to socialize with others outside of members of the occult. Now that I am an adult, I struggle to find anyone willing to hire me because of my lack of work and social experience. It is tough to get real-world work experience when all jobs require work experience. Especially since every time I get stressed out, It triggers a blood pressure condition (Vasovagal syncope & Hypotension) that causes me to faint. My doctor has put me on medication (Midodrine) that helps when I am in low-stress level situations, but the doctor has told me to avoid all problems that could trigger an “episode” and cause me to faint. Unfortunately, that includes big social groups and typical workplaces. If I faint without anyone around or/and someone who knows about my condition and the possibility that I could faint, I could seriously hurt myself. Now that I have left the occult, I would like to be more independent and support myself, but I am running into numerous issues, and I believe some monetary assistance will help me get on my feet. I currently live with my mother, sister, and brother (they left the occult at the same time I did), although I have been looking for a 1-2 bedroom apartment. Most 1-2 bedroom apartments in my area are $2,000 or more monthly. Living with my family was great initially, but now not so much. My mother is tired of supporting me financially, and I’m tired of feeling guilty because she is. Because my brother was raised with certain views of women, it has been tough to get him to change how he views and treats me, my mother, and my sister. I try to avoid him as much as possible, but you can only do so much avoiding when you live in the same house. It is very stressful whenever we interact because he is disrespectful and demeaning, which is very bad for my health. I understand there are much bigger causes to give your money to than mine, but if you have any extra money to donate, I would really appreciate it.

Single father drowning – Spouse deserted our 3 children – Bankruptcy/Repossession

I’m feeling like I’m unable to provide for my children, and now I’m so distraught by all of the financial issues that I am fighting really hard not to give up. Here I am, begging for help to protect what pride I have left.

I’ve attempted to receive mortgage assistance from IHDA, got an approal for SNAP benefits in the amount of ~$90/month (myself, plus 3 children) , and have direct wage garnishments still taking place from a bankruptcy that was dismissed when my spouse wouldn’t give wage information to our attorney.

https://paypal.me/StruggleDad

 

Here is a timeline of how this all happened:

 

Moved into house in 2017, stable home for family (3 children)

Spouse couldn’t get/keep jobs, forced to file Ch13 bankruptcy Fall of ‘18

  • This included mortgage, auto loan on SUV, student loans, medical bills, etc
  • All bankruptcy payments made by TFS Bill Pay, by my bank account
  • My company was being bought out in winter of ’18, sought new job
  • Covid came right after new construction sales job – couldn’t cover bankruptcy and all bills
  • Spouse’s job statuses and spending habits never allowed bankruptcy/bills to get caught up, while I struggled to work extra for commissions
  • Couldn’t maintain job at false-promised income, got job in I.T. (Jan ’21)
  • Bankruptcy payments were now made by 100% wage garnishments (up to $1082/paycheck, every 2 weeks)

I held every to provide what I could, while spouse lived on social media from our bedroom, buying “needs” without my knowledge, which continuously put bills/maintenance/auto/car/necessities behind. Her reason was always “welllll we needed it and I don’t get paid for xx days”. But her paychecks also went to her own spending habits.

Never could catch up, and this caused further issues

Spouse requested open relationship in June of 2021, started becoming non-existent in household. I had to lie to my children and tell them Mommy was working late in order to hide the real truth (Let’s stick with “Exotic Dates”).

 

Still couldn’t qualif for SNAP benefits, as my income (plus $6k-$8k from spouse) was too much to gain assistance

Spouse moved out June 9 2022 , kept SUV as she was going to use income to buy new vehicle

Email sent to Ch13 attorney on June 16 (22) requesting split of wage orders, as I was at 100% (as opposed to spouse living freely, keeping the SUV that I was paying for, not being here for children, etc

  • Attorney requested expenses/income in 8/22
  • September 16, 2022 was first 50/50 wage garnishment

Sought support through employer in any way possible, was provided 6 therapy sessions in July of 2022, otherwise told to use PTO as needed

  • First 2 sessions, therapist said I need to find more time for myself
  • Stopped attending virtual sessions, can’t attend and parent simultaneously

Continued struggling with bankruptcy, bills, groceries, etc without spousal support

  • Note: Spouse not supporting children whatsoever, besides being their “soccer coach” for a season

No time except to be single parent, plus work, cook, laundry, clean, etc

Sent email to Ch13 attorney on 7/25 requesting immediate help, as my health conditions were worsening (at 6’5 I weighed 154lbs. I was so depressed I couldn’t eat).

  • No action, except requesting paystubs from spouse

Accidental Ch13 dismissal (9/14/22) resulted in false repossession of vehicle listed in bankruptcy

  • Repossession on 1/30/23 , 2 days of PTO to regain possession
  • Also resulted in foreclosure notices from mortgage lender (11/2022)
  • Attorney stated “This can happen”, no big deal

Applied for SNAP benefits in June of 22 , approved in August for ~$70/month

  • Covid emergency funds helped greatly, but bills all still behind during 100% wage garnishments and no help from children’s mother

Applied for IHDA mortgage assistance in November ’22 , keep getting ran around asking for more documents

Mental stress put me in the ER in Nov 2022

  • prescibed anxiety medication

Received divorce summons in Jan 2023

  • Responded, fee waiver issues with SNAP approval

Children informed me that their mother bought a new van, still no support for children

Covid Emergency SNAP payments ended in 2/2023

Bankruptcy dismissed in Feb 2023 due to lack of payments (my 50% was always made during the split)

  • Can further be proven from NDC database

SUV repossessed, again, on 3/7

Now I’m lost. $12k behind on mortgage, SUV “cramdown” repossessed, feeling unable to support my family, and wage garnishments are still taking place. My mortgage was transferred/sold after Ch13 dismissal and I can’t make any payments due to “no account”. IHDA says I am a “Special Case” and my application cannot be processed normaly.  They even said “In April, we could ask for more before it’s approed”.

 

I make just enough money to be disqualified from programs, yet my “spouse” is living freely without consequences, not supporting my children and still posessing the same spending habits.

 

My children seek their mother’s love and support, new shoes and clothing, school fees to be covered, etc. I am unable to support my own family anymore, and I don’t know what to do. It’s hard-enough attempting to calm my youngest (now 8) who cries herself to sleep a lot because of how much she misses Mommy. How can I work til 5p, get dinner made, ensure homework and showers are done, do laundry, clean up the afternoon/evening mess (can’t afford daycare, so kids roam the house without supervision from 3p-5p whil eI work in the bsaement)?

 

I am only one person, and I’m failing. My parents are out of town, my closest relative (sister) has her own issues to worry about, as does everyone else.

 

So what do I do while I wait for foreclosures, info on how to get personal belongings from my SUV, and what happens next? Lawsuit against Ch13 attorney? Consultations cost money. Lawsuit against auto loan company for repossession? Consultations cost money. Lawsuit against spouse for emotional distress, mental abuse, financial ruin, etc? Seems everything is for women’s rights, and doesn’t account for a lot of “sngle dads”. How do I continue the next few months without having a vehicle, substantial grocery money, and money for basic necessities? InstaCart costs too much, no extra-cirriculars for the kids?

 

Please help me. I’ve sent emails, called offices and left messages, and I can’t keep taking PTO to figure this out… I can’t lose this job in my great time of need.

 

I will provide proof of anything needed if allowed by this site, as this is the first time I’ve done anything like this.

Urgent! Help Jonathan Pyles (Prostate Cancer) with his personal bills/medical bills

Hi my name is Jonathan Pyles, I just turned 61 and I live with my wife Jen, and her 97 year old grandmother in Beavercreek Township, Ohio. We are 2 months behind on rent about to lose the house we love, and I’m feeling desperate & despondent….please help me out of this situation I’m in…

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and went through 25 treatments of proton therapy at University of Cincinnati Health (which I had no side effects), then followed up with a one time brachia-therapy (they placed 56 radioactive seeds on my prostate and surrounding areas to keep it from spreading). Big time side effects from this procedure! The daily fatigue/illness has really set me back…

I’m a self employed restaurant management recruiter, the business is slowly making a comeback since the pandemic, but unfortunately I’ve fallen behind on my bills and I need your help getting back on my feet again…

I hope to raise $5000 for rent (2 months at 1650 per month), and the remainder for the rest of my bills (CareSource/electric bill/fuel oil/auto insurance etc…), this is very important/urgent!!

Less important is an additional $5000 for my medical bills (I owe $3891 to the Kettering Health Network and $1802.60 to UCHealth)

I can provide documents to you that will verify my bills (copy of my lease, my personal/ medical bills etc…) as well as my Prostrate Cancer diagnosis and the treatments I went through at UC Health…

Please, it is urgent….whatever you can offer to help…thank you for your time and consideration for reading this.

Needing Help

I’m Bobby G. a 57 year old male who has always been a generous person. However, the tables have turned and as embarrassed as I am doing this I really don’t have any foreseeable solution to my financial situation anytime soon. I am currently unable to work due to physical(mostly) and mental issues such as depression and anxiety. I’m on medication to help me with that and have been for over 4 years now. Back in 2013 I was diagnosed with eye cancer(Coroidal Melanoma). Yes the big C. That was a painful and crazy ordeal for the next year and a half or so. I am blind in my left eye as the result of the radiation treatments. That didn’t stop me from carrying on a normal life. I went back to work a short time after treatments. I look at it is that’s why we were givin two eyes to begin with. I do have issues with depth perception but I adjust. I also don’t allow it to change my lifestyle.

In 2017 while riding my motorcycle to work early one morning, a car pulled into my path and I couldn’t avoid it. I hit the car at around 40 miles per hour or so. I crushed and broke my pelvis. I broke my wrist and also sustained a knee and back and shoulder injury. I was unable to walk and do anything without requiring assistance for several months.  I have plates in my wrist, pelvis and a rod inside of my body that occasionally give me trouble. I’m unable to stand or sit for extended amounts of time. I’m pretty tough so I didn’t allow that to stop me. While going through physical therapy I cam down with Diverticulitis and had to have surgery to remove a portion of my colon. I had to wear an ostomy bag for 6 months. I was approaching a year of being out of work but short term disability kept me afloat. My employer  of 10 years contacted me and said if I didn’t return to work by a certain date that they would have to terminate me. Not to worry they said, they would hire me back. I asked them if I would have the same pay rate and they said they didn’t know about that. I agreed to return on the day they instructed and went back to work. I knew I wasn’t 100% but I felt I could handle it. During the course of the next two years I developed six hernias all in my abdominal area. I ended up losing that job after twelve years of going above and beyond my pay rate. I immediately obtained a better job with higher pay. I was blessed I thought. I was having issues with medications that made me temporarily ill and I had to excuse myself to the bathroom in order to vomit practically the same time everyday. I was still having follow up doctor visits and would schedule them around work so I wouldn’t be absent. I’d either come in late or leave early as opposed of taking the day off. After six months they terminated me. I wasn’t to upset because it was an hour drive through Atlanta twice daily and I figured I would use this time to get my hernias and shoulder repaired while pulling from my 401k. Turns out I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and my numbers were out of range to have surgery. I was put on medication, changed my eating habits and tried to do exercise which is mostly only walking due to my conditions. I would get tested every three months to see if I was fit for surgery but my diabetes was still out of control. They changed my medications and after a couple of months I was finally approved for surgery. Surgery to repair six hernias took place last Wednesday March 8th. I am currently recovering. Bad news is due to all the delays I used all my 401k and any savings I had. Still not real worried because things seem to always work out. I did some side gigs by portraying Santa Clause and fell in love with that but as you know that is a seasonal thing. I managed to purchase an easter bunny costume so I can make appearances around the area. I have two gigs scheduled for next month. Hopefully I will be recovered enough to perform. All that being said I have no current income whatsoever and don’t know what to do. That’s what brings me here. I must mention I have applied for disability last year and I haven’t been approved or disapproved. It’s at 86% which means it could still be months before a decision is made and the fiancial responsibilities are still there.

My Own Place To Live

I just turned 70 years old and find myself in an unhappy situation.  When you think about you only have so many years left on earth you really want to be happy.  My happy place would be a cottage in a small but modern town where all the shopping is within walking distance or a condo in a nice, safe city that I can also walk out the door to the shops for things I need.  I have only a small amount of money and I cannot afford the prices for a safe, decent home to call my own.  I have a home but it is not in my name but my husbands name and I don’t want to be controlled by that anymore.  We’re fine together and he is good to me but I want my own space that I can call my own.  He would not like that and may create some drama.  I’ve been traveling with him for twenty years with his kids back and forth to Europe as he is from there.  I am tired of traveling and don’t want to get on a plane across the ocean if possible ever again.  I am about to go back there tomorrow and don’t want to.  I live there with him because I could not afford to buy a house here. I’ve been in the states for a visit with friends and family for three weeks now and don’t want to go back but I have to because he supports me so I have no choice.  If I just had enough money to buy outright a home and a car I think I could survive on my social security and an IRA that will last me for about 5 years before running out.  My income would be about $2300 per month but that would be without medical insurance, -car insurance- (if I couldn’t fine a city with easy access to shops for necessities) and all the things one has to pay for each month to live on.

I need $350K to  achieve this.  I am healthy and wouldn’t mind getting a job at a local hotel if anyone would hire me.  I have a happy spirit, still very young minded and a wonderful personality and everyone who meets me tells me how much they like me.  I just want my own place and not have to depend on someone else.  I would divorce my husband because he has some pretty bad habits that I don’t want to live with anymore nor the lifestyle.  I want to be the happiest I can be with the little bit of life I have left.  I want some animals to love. I would volunteer at an animal shelter, have animals myself and do whatever I could to help them.  They are so grounding.  So, with that I will close.  I have never done this before and I am embarrassed to write this but I thought why not?  It can’t hurt. My legal name is Sherrill Stulz.  The Howell name, I could never get Yahoo to change it nor Paypal.

Stage IV Cancer: Homeless and need donations for treatment and living expenses

Hello kind people my name is Alan, I am 66 years old and very ill with Stage IV Prostate Cancer. This is not currently curable but is treatable; nevertheless the only unknown is how long I can actually survive. I know my cancer story may be similar to many other cancer sufferers but it’s impact on my life has been devastating.

When I was first diagnosed, I was already stage IV with Gleason score of 4/5, PSA almost 500 and with significant and multiple bone metastases in almost all parts of my body; these metastases are treatable but not curable. My only option was chemotherapy, radiotherapy and ongoing medication to hopefully control the spread and give me more time. Surgery on the prostate would not cure me or delay the spread of the cancer as it had already spread to bones throughout my body and even some lymph nodes; however regular medication was helping me.

 During Chemo

During Chemo 3.jpg Bone MetastasesBone scan small.jpg

When I was diagnosed, I was still working and oblivious to the cancer, it was a big shock when I was told but I chose positivity and faith to help me through this. Initially my employer was also supportive and I expected/hoped that this support would continue; but as soon as the first medical insurance claims came in and the premiums rose, their attitude changed. So, despite me continuing to work hard for them through the pain and nausea of chemotherapy and radiation I very soon found myself out of work; with my employer citing my age (retirement) and “poor attendance” as reasons for ending my contract. I was not able to prove anything, but I’m convinced that the real reason for me losing my job was high insurance premiums that my ex-employer did not want to pay.

Losing that job also meant I was left homeless because my house came with the job. Now I move between friends and relatives and rely on their kindness for a place to stay and for food. Unfortunately they are not rich and cannot help me with the high cost of treatment and because of their own family commitments I can’t stay with them longer than a few days. I’ve already spent several nights on the streets or sleeping in cars.

Bed for the night in a friends car

Living rough.jpg

So I find myself effectively homeless with a spreading cancer, no job, no income and very little chance of finding employment at my age and in my current condition. What savings I had have gone on my essential medication, but those savings ran out some time ago and I have no pension. So for the last 11 months I’ve had no treatment or medication at all. Because of this I’m very fearful of the cancer’s progression and my future. The pain in my bones is increasing every day and can be excruciating at times, it’s also beginning to affect my mobility. Some days it is hard to walk or even stand because of the pain. On top of this due to a poorly executed tooth extraction a year ago I ended up with necrosis in my jaw that needed surgery to remove the infected bone. This has left my jaw very weak and also added to my pain and sense of helplessness.

I have worked all my life and have been fortunate that I never had to ask for such help, in fact I was often the one helping others in need. My work often took me to many deprived areas and I always did whatever I could to improve the lives of individuals and communities in those areas, both directly with donations and equally by training and building skills that helped people support themselves. I also supported my elderly mother who was widowed 30 years ago and lived alone until her passing last year, aged 90. I am still grieving for her too.

Now in my current dire situation it’s still taken a long time and lot of courage for me to reach out in this way, but I have always believed that what you give, or the good things you do, can or will come back to you in some way, so I’m hoping and praying that there are kind souls out there who may find it in their hearts to help me.

Firstly, I need funds for new PET/CT scans ($6,000) to know if, or how much, my cancer has spread. I also need donations to help me pay for daily medication which is very expensive ($1200 every 28 days) but could give me the chance of surviving longer and living without pain. Finally any help possible for my living expenses, food etc.

Thanks for taking the time to read my story and I wish you all the best in life regardless of whether you can help me or not. Never take anything for granted in your own life and when you can, try to help those less fortunate than yourself.

Peace 🙏

Financial Crisis

I had to take a medical leave from work at the end of September and during this leave I had to have my gallbladder bladder removed which was unexpected. This caused me to be out on leave longer and it used up my intermittent FMLA. In order to return to work a fitness for duty form was required and filled out by my doctor. My doctor requested reasonable accommodations for me and my work denied the request and placed me on a general leave status until the start of the next school year. I was supposed to return to work in December but not only was my ADA accommodations denied but they went on Christmas break and left my paperwork on the desk for review for after the Christmas break. Then they just forgot about me until the end of January and informed me that I was not allowed to return to work until next school year. All this leave has been without pay and I have reached capacity. I have borrowed all I can borrow and used up all my credit and I am now unable to pay my bills. I cannot even buy gas or food and it will be wasted soon enough if my electricity goes out. My credit score went from an 800 to a 520, and every creditor is calling me multiple times a day for payment and I don’t have any money. I have worked my entire life and I have always been able to at least if all else fails go wait tables but I no longer can work on my feet. I have 8 medical conditions and one of them is extremely difficult to manage and causes me a great deal of problems making everything I do exponentially harder. I have POTS syndrome and I have severe arthritis in my entire spine and hips making any type of labor intensive jobs and standing up for long periods of time impossible for me. I cannot just go get a job anywhere. I’m negative in my account and my house payment is due. All my bills are due and all my maxed out credit cards are past due. My house taxes are past due and everything is spiraling out of control. I am having to send my only child to go live with my parents because I cannot support her and I don’t know what I will do without the kindness of strangers because I learned quickly that when you really need help your friends and family will not help you. I have worked hard to get everything I have in life and in falling behind by one month my entire credit and on time payment history is destroyed and I am facing financial ruin and eventually I will lose my house and everything I worked for. I have to now sue my school district for violating my rights by denying me reasonable accommodations which will only mean many more months of time without any income and I just don’t know how anyone is expected to survive these situations when there’s really no way to speed up the process. I will be eternally grateful for any help afforded me by others because I have no idea what I will do if nobody steps in and helps me stay afloat. I have never needed help before and I am very humbled by this experience. Thank you deeply.

No more domestic violence

Hello & thank you for taking time to read my story!
I am a DV survivor, I have been away from my abuser for almost a year now. I suffered for 6 long years, in a relationship with my children’s father.
he abused me in every single way.
He had control of my entire life, from finances to family. I wasn’t allowed to work, I wasn’t allowed to see my family. I wasn’t allowed to leave the house unless he was with me. He would hit me in front of my kids, scream at, belittle, throw things at me, all while they watched this happen. When I finally got the courage to leave him, last year, I packed my things and was planning on moving in with my parents. A fresh start. I ended up meeting a man that started helping me make plans and have the guts to defend myself and stop being a victim. The last time I seen my abuser in person, face to face I guess you could say, he raised his hand to hit me and I’m not sure what came over me but I hit him first.. no one should lay another hand on a person but I couldn’t stop it. Anyways, he called the police on me. The first and only time I ever raised my hand back/at him and he called the police on me! After 6 years of me just enduring his abuse and making excuses for him… he called the police on me. Shortly after, I found out it was because he found out I was leaving him so he had to have some kind of control over me, some type of way. I was put in jail, taken away from my kids for 2 months over this. Again, almost a year later and I’m still facing problems because of this man and because of me FINALLY defending myself against him.
Between court costs, fines, having to call off work, losing jobs, child care…. I cannot make ends meet. I can’t afford a proper lawyer that can fight for me and help me fight this case to prove that he is the abuser. I have SO MUCH evidence from physical abuse photos, screenshots, statements, police reports, etc to have on my side but what I don’t have is money…. And that is what makes the world go round apparently. All I want and ask for is justice for myself and to stop being made to look like abuser, to be able to pay my bills, keep a job, get this paper trail of nonsense off of me and make this man get what he deserves and to finally face the consequences of what he put me and children through along with all the other women he has done this stuff too, which is more than 3 and I thankfully have the proof of!

I know me asking for this amount is absurd and probably far fetched but between lawyer costs and to catch on bills, it’s what is needed and honestly the bare minimum just to play catch up:(

for any one willing to donate, you’re more than a savings grace and it’s more appreciated than I could ever put into words! Thank you a million times over!!

We really need help

I am 17 years old, and my family and I need financial assistance.

My family consists of myself, my grandmother, a cousin, and my grandfather.   Unfortunately, my grandfather is no longer with us because he was believed to have died from his bad heart.  This was probably preventable on his part had he been careful and listened to the doctor’s advice about lifting heavy objects.  At the time of his death, my grandfather was trying to do people favors for a small amount of money to save up for a small truck to get him to a job he was doing for a good friend of his who owned a lawn mowing company without depending on the family vehicle for when we needed it because it was being used constantly to take my cousin to football practice, taking me to baseball practice or my work, getting groceries, and so on.  My grandfather had to be careful because he had surgery on his heart and wasn’t supposed to lift anything heavy (nothing exceeding 25 pounds) – but in his mind, we needed the money and tried to hurry this specific favor he was doing for our neighbor.  This might’ve been because he had a job to do right after and didn’t want to risk delaying the favor for the woman next door any longer.  He forgot to put on his “heart shocker,” which we called it, which gave his body jolts of electricity if he had lifted an exceeding amount – however, this probably would not have been enough to save him anyway.  We miss him a lot, and although he was hard on my cousin and me, we can see and appreciate his commitment to raising and caring for us as if we were his two sons.  There is no doubt he is in Heaven right now; he spoke a lot for our church and educated himself with the word of the Lord.  He recently got his ministry degree not long before he passed away – but God had other plans for him.

We never got the truck my grandfather was saving up for (which was being given to us, but he had to repair parts of the vehicle {Head gaskets, radiator} before it was able to be driven). Still, hopefully, we could somehow get enough saved up to get it fixed by an engineer.  This would help me get to where I work, which is out of town, so that my grandmother doesn’t have to drive me 20 minutes there and 20 minutes back when she has something to she’s busy doing.  Our family vehicle broke down but fortunately, somebody from our church was willing to give us one of their vehicles.  My grandmother is burdened with an even higher car payment to worry about paying off on top of everything else. ‘

‘  Although with a total monthly family revenue of ~$1,700 prior, we struggled with bills, car payments, and things.  Now that revenue has come down to maybe ~$1,100 or less (Before bills) – not that I know for sure because my grandmother doesn’t want us to worry or stress about it, but we’re doing everything we can to help her.  She now struggles to get groceries (let alone pay bills) – FoodStamps rejected her request, although she’s mentioned why we needed it.  Most of our income came from our grandpa, but we struggled to have any money even then – now it’s a lot worse.  The funds will be used to pay off our car, repair the truck, pay the bills, groceries, etc.  This will help release the burden of my grandmother and cousin and so much more.  I feel guilty for begging, but we need it!*

— I also want to add that currently we are behind on 3 rents, owing 500; 700; 400. .  and it’s likely going to worsen and we may have to even move out…

I am currently working as a Pharmacy Technician and I am in the Eleventh grade.  I do currently have an Academic and Sports scholarship and I am going to college straight after Highschool..  However, I really do not want to leave my Grandmother with the stress she is going through, as I am currently helping her now.  It’s still good to know that my cousin will be here for her when I leave, however.

Truthfully, I don’t know the exact number we need but any amount that you would be willing to give will help us.  If you really are willing to help then please send it to my Paypal (or make a request and tell me another method — preferably cashapp..)

Also I want to add that I’ve made a post on here a few months ago and the people who reached out to me were all scammers and all they’ve done was give me false hope and wasted my time to somehow convince me to send them money instead, which I didn’t.  It’s sad that people really try to prey on those who really need help just to make a quick buck.  I know there are really kind people out there willing to help those who really do need it so I want to say to whomever reading this to please be careful and do not be tricked by these weirdos who sit online all day looking for targets to be their victims.  Anyways, thanks for reading this and God bless you.

Help! Struggling with debt and daycare

I am a 40 year old woman with a 2.5 year old. I was doing great financially, then found out I was pregnant,  which was a blessing.  Then covid happened during pregnancy and I was forced out of my job (a small company that didn’t have to abide by laws protecting pregnant women). I stayed home with my daughter until she was 1. It was wonderful being with her but I went through my savings and maxed out my credit cards. I have a decent job now, but have not been able to catch up. My whole paycheck goes towards bills, debt and groceries.  I refinanced my house last year for daycare money.  I make to much for assistance but not enough for life. I’m struggling.  I have 35k in credit card debt now.  I’m so worried because I’m not going to be able to afford daycare next month.  It is 1760 a month,  which is on the lower end.

Disabled Veteran Needs Help

Hello.

I am a 100% permanently disabled veteran and I am in need of financial assistance.

Mistake #1

I purchased a home in Iowa to be geogtaphically closer to my brother. I choose Iowa because as a 100% disabled veteran I am not required to pay property taxes. However, property assessments are setup and the timing of my purchase require me to pay property taxes until the fall of 2024 which is close to $250 per month. That would have been my grocery money.

Mistake #2

I was told by Veterans United that I would be getting a surplus of money at closing at about $3.500. They instead used $2,440 to buy down a point against my wishes. I intended to use this money to move my belongings from Las Vegas to Iowa.

Mistake #3

This one is not so much my fault. My landlord raised my rent in September with a 60 day notice by 36%. I was planning to move out by June of 2023. This caused me difficulty for me to move. My physical disabilities make it difficult and painful to move anything. I was unprepared and unorganized for this move. I am not good a packing my belongs and I am sure that the packing materials take up 50% or more of my storage space.

My dad passed away last May and my best and last remaining friend passed away a month later. Neither my dad nor my best friend could help me move, but it just added to my situation.

About 90% of my belongs are still in Nevada. I am not good at packing my belongs and I am sure that the packing materials take up 50% or more of my storage space. Right now my storage costs are $805 per month. The mortgage, the shortage at closing, the cost of storage and not expecting to pay property taxes has made life difficult. I am 10% over the limit of my $8,000 credit card and I do not have money to pay all of my bills or move my belongs out of storage. I damaged the suspension of my 2002 Chevy Tahoe towing a trailer to Iowa. It makes noise in the right front and it leans to the right in the rear. I believe it may be a ball joint in the front and a broken coil spring in the rear. My tools are in Nevada or I could get  my brother to do the labor as I instruct him. I have some mechanical knowledge. I don’t have the money for parts and I don’t have the money to pay someone to repair it.

Once my belongs are here, I won’t have to pay storage anymore and I could make it financially. Moving costs are insane. A Penske truck as of yesterday is $15,000 plus fuel and maybe mileage. U-haul truck and trailer is $7,000 plus mileage and fuel. Travel food and lodging adds to this cost. I would need to have $10,000 before I would attempt one trip. One trip with truck and trailer would reduce my storage costs to $571 per month. I will be able to sell some of these belongs and be able to get my head above water. My belongs are stuff you might find at a yard sale, eBay, Craig’s list or Facebook.

Yesterday, I spent money that was meant for my utility bill on groceries and essentials. The utility company said they would work with me. I remain hopeful.

I could mention all the things thst need repairs in this house. I was able to repair the microwave. The oven doesn’t work, but the broiler does, so it needs an igniter and maybe a safety valve since turning on the puts out gas and it isn’t igniting. It is a bomb waiting to detonate. Two of the burners ignite on their own, the others don’t, so perhaps they are electrically dirty. There are plumbing and electrical code violations everywhere. I paid for an inspection, but the guy missed a lot.

This house was an expensive purchase, but I saw potential in this place. I knew it needed some work, but this is  more than expected. Someday, about two years from now, I hope to have refinanced at a better rate, my belongs will be here, no more property taxes and two Cost Of Living Allowances (COLA) increases on January 1, 2024 and 2025 will make life enjoyable once again.

I am a firm believer in accepting responsibility for my mistakes. I messed up and I own this burden.

I thank everyone who read this post and if you can help, thanks for that as well.

It wasn’t just one thing that went wrong, There were several things that have gone wrong. I am a survior and I never give, but a strategic retreat is sometimes necessary.

My immediate needs are utility costs and repair costs for my Tahoe’s suspension problem. It also leaks oil which is most likely the rear main seal. Money to move would definitely be a God send. Despite all of this, I am grateful to be a homeowner again and for all the other good in my life. I am especially grateful to my brother and his wife. They have done so much to help me. I am blessed despite myself.

God bless our country and everyone everywhere.

Civics And Econ Did Not Prepare Me For Inflation (Majorly Struggling To Pay Bills)

For the sake of making this as easy to read as possible, I am going to list out my situation, my issues, and my needs, as quick and swift as possible.

My situation

I have a family of 7, including myself. 3 have full-time jobs, 1 is an elderly man with dementia, 1 is a 10 year old child, 1 is an 18 year old high school student and I am a full-time college student, staying home to care for my partner’s dad and child. We have 2 cars between all of us that drive. We live with another family that sometimes helps  us, but still expects rent and help buying household goods. 5 of us have monthly medical bills, 2 with credit card debt (due to bills from emergencies and student debt), and plenty of other expenses (clothes, school activities, college prep, etc.) with the 7 of us combined. We also have 3 cats and 1 dog, that we try to take to the vet at least twice a year.

My issues

With only 3 working, and sadly no one eligible for government assistance or loans, aside from my partner’s dad, who receives a monthly social security $900 check, we already struggle enough. Recently a couple of our hard workers have had to stay out of work for a week and a half, due to illness. We made sure that our food is covered, but because of inflation we are seriously lacking in funds to cover bills. That includes rent, phones, insurance, medical, car, and debt.

My needs

I need $2,500 to help cover this upcoming month of bills and anything we will be soon to owe on.

Final statement

Only 3 months into the new year and me and my family have already been sent on a wild ride. I know we’re all just doing what we can to stay afloat. So, if you happen to see this and you are struggling too, remember patience and persistence pays off. Don’t give up. If you see this and you’re able to help, just know that even the smallest of support would help this big family. Thank you, at the very least, for reading to this point. I hope this year is a year of good health and prosperity for you.
