I am not really sure how to write this because I work so hard to try to never ask for money but it is so hard not to when taking care of someone else. I am a financially struggling millennial mother with an autistic toddler who I’d give my life for. It is so easy to love him but it is so challenging to raise him. It is even harder because I don’t have transportation or money for transportation to safely take him to his medical appointments and occupational therapy. I have been applying for jobs but still have not been hired. I used to be in a local rock band which was one of my few only mental and musical outlets but the band dissolved due to tensions between other band members. I wish to go back to college and finish getting a Bachelor’s degree since I had to drop out due to financial hardship. I was going to Penn State in Berks County, PA but the campus seems to be geared on constantly failing their students in keeping them from attending the main campus so they can keep receiving tuition from them in repeating courses. I went there for four years and just could no longer afford the tuition, nor was I receiving grants or scholarships which caused me to take out student loans and put me in almost $30,000 in debt. I have an elderly dog that I have been taking care of but I unfortunately can’t afford his vet bills. I’m trying to make his last days on this earth as comfortable as possible but it hurts me so much to see him in pain and knowing that there’s nothing that I can do about it as far as taking him to the vet and getting him proper medication. I also would like to help my mom who is forced to pay child support for her daughter (my half-sister but I see her as a full sister and a surrogate daughter since I helped raise her as a baby) who is in custody of a man who (from what she has told us) is very abusive to her. This same man has made my mom, my little Sister’s, and my life a living hell for over 20 years with his abuse and uses his wealth in constantly taking my mom to court and victimizing her with a corrupt justice system in Lehigh Valley, PA which has been very instrumental in tearing apart our family which is really all we had. Recently, I was even scammed out of money when I applied for a loan and a scam loan company had deposited fake money into my bank account, but then demanded a portion of it back through CashAPP and gift cards and may cause me to lose my only bank account that I have had for 6 years. Now I am just at my whit’s end. I am so tired of trying to hold my head above water and barely grasping at the simplicities of life but still drowning. Anything can help right now. Please if you can or want to, help me help others. I am tired of surviving. I desire just to live and maybe someday even thrive.
