Hello Tina I am sorry you have MS. I saw you off to the side and not seeing you before had to click on your picture to see what your story was. I have met many women and one man on the net who have this horrible disease. I have even written about it in my blog from what it is by looking it up on the net. I have a link for food banks in your state

They are the best kids any mother could ask for, My children are my life, and so are my grandchildren I would love any help for them to have a good Christmas.and I would love to moving money to get to florida so I can live with my daughter and her husband. .Economy has hit me hard,  I  struggling to pay bills, let alone provide any type of Christmas for my adult children and my grandchildren.

I am a 32 year old mother of a 10yr old girl and a 3yr old boy and I was alittle embarassed to say that I needed help because this year we aren't having a christmas. I have to provide a roof over my children's head and that doesn't leave much room for extras. If there is any way that I can get some type of assistance to provide them with alittle something, that would be greatly appreciated. I pray for each and every one of you on this site that each one of us may be blessed with a miracle this year.

I'm not really sure what this page is for, or if this is appropriate. Really, I just need to vent. We are so broke. We aren't going to make it. I'm in my last semester of school, but I don't think I'll be able to finish--meaning more time spent at a bad job earning no money. My husband was laid off last April, and has been unable to get a job since then. Everyone in our area has been laid off. We can't move, because if I transfer to another school I'll be farther behind, and farther from getting a job that will actually help. All our savings are gone. We didn't apply for unemployment because we thought we could make it without help--never thought he'd be out of work this long--and now we don't qualify because he didn't work the right quarters last year.

I've told my family we have plans with my in-laws, and my in-laws we have plans with my family, so we can avoid going to anyone's house for the holidays. I don't want to sit in a room full of people giving gifts without being able to give anything back. We found some toy trucks on ebay for my little boy, but it's pathetic. My husband just keeps saying everything will be okay, but I don't see how it will. Even if he went back to work on Monday, we're so far behind we'll never catch up. Our insurance is going to run out soon (we had COBRA from his last job), and then I will be terrified. Toddlers get sick.

I know from reading the other posts here that I am just feeling sorry for myself; we are blessed with health and at least a modicum of happiness most of the time. But I am literally sick over our finances.

I’ve been working so hard to get a good life going. I got a very nice women at my side. Things were looking so good. Money was coming in from all over the place she was working, and I had two jobs. We were happy. Then we got Pregnant it was the happiest day of our lives. We were going to be parents. Then about two months later problems started. My primary job just about slowed to a hault. My soon to be wife had complications with the pregnancy and it turn out to be an ectopic pregnancy and she was going to have to have surgury after it had ruptured in her tube. This was after two shots of the stuff that was supposed to as they say “take care of the unborn child” That put her out of work and pretty much unable to move cause it had damaged both tubes, so they had to remove both tubes. Now we can’t have kids unless we do it in vetro and we don’t have that kind of money. But we really want a child bad. Now after that I had to take care of her because she couldn’t move or do anything by herself per the doctors orders and her pain. So I had to stop working at my second job and I told them what was going on and made sure I called out everyday that they had me scheduled. But alas they fired me anyways. So now I only have this one job and with it being so slow I can’t get the money together to pay the bills I need and to even try to start saving to have a baby . I just wish there was someway I could get the money and just fix everything. Because she is hurting so bad, and I can’t get no money so I feel useless. It’s just been so bad I don’t know what to do…. I just need some help. Thank you.

I will pray for your situation, don't feel humiliated, everyone on this planet goes through tough times, we need to learn to receive help as well as give it, thats what life is all about learning to help our brothers and sisters in this world, and learning to be humble enough to receive help back when we need it. I think its one of the most important lessons of life and something GOD wants to teach us. I know things will get better, so keep on keeping on you can do it!!!

but i am in need of help and dont know where to try and get it from

I'm from New York, and there are some hospitals out here that offer tuition free training for nursing if you agree to work in the hospital for a certain period of time following the training.  I have a few friends who have done that and are still working at the hospital.  Do any of the hospitals out there offer a similar deal?

I think this is a wonderful idea. There are so many people going without and so many who have more then they know what to do with. I work full time and still dont make enough money to get a habitat for humanity home for my family of five. Thats pretty sad because make slightly over minimum wage. I dont know how people are making it at all anymore. Its a battle everyday to pay my bills on time and I am slowly giving up hope of owning a home someday with the mortgage crisis and the fact that we barely make ends meet now. Its a sad fact that hard working, dedicate, loving parents will never be able to give their children the American Dream life style that generations of the past could. Until the wealthy are able to help the needy I am afraid to see how many families with kids our homeless shelters will consist of.

Can you please help a preschool class in huge need?

You're kidding, right? "invited"? when people extend "invitations," they don't ask to be paid.

This is my first visit to this terrific website.

I'm a single mom of twin teens, take care of my 84 y.o. mom, can't find a job, "overqualified" is what I've been told, 52 may be the real reason, no health insurance, one month behind on mortgage, one week away from utilities cut off, selling home items on ebay for $$, and diagnosed as schizophrenic and manic despressive.

My son applied for an academic program in DC where they go to class 6 days a week, debate current issues every evening, live in a college dorm, learn how our government works and earn a semester of credit if they pass the test. He is planning a law career to help the needy. He has to raise every dollar to go. He is writing every single person he can think of and is working to earn his money. He has a 3.5 GPA, will earn his Eagle Scout this summer and go on at least one Church Mission trip in the rural South. It would never dawn on him to post a request here for money to go to Europe on a sight seeing trip when there are posts up and down the page here from people who are just trying their best to keep a home for their children, food on the table and gas in the car to go to work.

Did you even read the plight of these families and individuals who have posted their stories here? After reading them, I am going to pray for these families because I am grateful for what I have and see that so many are less fortunate than our family.

Advice to you to go on your dream travel summer: Get a job. Do some local fundraising by seeing what you can do for others to earn a little money. Think it over again - is going to Europe this summer really all that important or would there be an opportunity in your community to help children learn to read, assist the seniors who have no one or raise a little money for those who are hungry?

Then Pray for those less fortunate than you. And be grateful for America.

i need help now to pay off my debts

I need help well more like guidance. I would like to know if anyone knows of any medical assisting positions in the Inland Empire, CA. Work has been so dry out here lately we are slowly but surely going broke. I have enough money saved to pay my rent for the next few months but after that if I can not find work I will be SOL. I would also like to know if anyone knows of any full scholarships out there for a Nursing program. I was on the honor roll and my GPA is 3.75 and I would like to further my career in healthcare but do not have that kind of money for school and childcare for my son. Please any little bit of information would help. Thanks in advance.

hi, i have a 6 year old cousin. she has a lump on her throat and the doctors think it may be cancerous. her parents can't afford insurance but dont qualify for medicaide or chip.  on dec. 15 my 10 yr old cousin died of strep type A Strep Toxic Shock Syndrome.  My family can't handle much more heartache right now.  is there any way to get some VERY affordable insurance or anything?

Hi, my daughter and I moved into a house in December and were lied to about how much it would cost to heat it. I have spent $1200 since Dec 22, 07 on heating oil. We have complained to the landlords and they are finally getting someone to look at the furnace, but I am completely out of savings, and out of heating oil again and it is still COLD!! We are having to use lots of blankets and dress very warmly and have been using the stove for a little at a time to get some heat.It is still in the low teens here at night and low thirties in the days with lots of wind.  I talked to an attorney and he said I could sue for failure to disclose on this, but I would get kicked out and we have no where else to go and no money now for a deposit on another place.

I work full time, am in college full time and on the deans list, and do not qualify for any assistance because I work full time ($8.00) and own my vehicle and have to much "equity" to recieve help. I am where I can pay rent for this month, or get heat. I can not use a space heater - I had one overheat and burn down a house several years ago and I am terrified of them. I don't know any other options.

I don't get child support because my ex-husband was very abusive and is in prison for 15 years for attempted murder on me. His family blames me and has written us off. My family has no money to help us. I am terrified of failing my daughter again. Please help us. We are praying desperately. We just need money to help us get more heating oil or with a deposit to get into a better place that has a better source of heat. Thanks wildfirechik@yahoo.com

I don't know which state you are but theres Federal help of transitional housing program and they should be able to help you with rent, utilities and weekly allowances for food for your and your daughter until you get on your feet.  I'm a member of a Family Support Group in my community and we have families that they're on this program.  Please contact your local Shelter and ask them of this program.  They should be able to help you.  I'm a single mom of three kids and I do understand your frustration.  Good luck to you...

My husband and I have both lost our jobs in the past 3 years.  While we are currently working full-time, unfortunately it is not at the rate of pay we were currently making at our long term jobs (9 years and 17 years).  We have filed bankruptcy and are in risk of having our home foreclosed upon.  Our family (including a 3 year old and 5 year old) is now without health insurance because our budget can not afford anything additional.

 I've looked to all of these government programs for help with our mortgage issue, but because we're in bankruptcy no one wants to help.  By the way, we filed Chapter 13, so we are trying to pay back our debts.

 Someone please help!  We're at our wits' end!

Frank Vernacchio is a husband, father, grandfather and long time resident of Delaware County.  Frank is a self employed auto body repairman who suddenly suffered a heart attack which subsequently led to quadruple heart by-pass surgery and a long lengthy rehabilitation.  In this day and age it's unfortunate that many people suffer from cardiac illnesses; however in Frank's case it may be his passion for others that put the strain on his heart.  You see, Frank has touched the lives of not hundreds but thousands of families.  He is best known for being the guy who will 'Give you the shirt off his back'.

In addition to his auto body career, many years ago Frank began to get involved in youth ice hockey in the community.   Since then, Frank has volunteered thousands of hours to kids in the community sharpening their skates and using his technical skills to save families added expense by repairing their hockey equipment.  Because of Frank's generosity thousands of children are able to participate in something positive which is priceless in today's society.  Franks skills are not limited to just auto body and hockey, he is a knowledgeable person with a lifetime worth of experience that he has always offered to both friends and strangers.  He would sacrifice his own needs to help others without expecting any financial reward.  Frank is one in a million who sincerely helps others from the heart.  With that being said, now Frank needs our help.  Because of his recent health problems, Frank for the first time in over six decades is unable to work and will face financial hardships.  We, "The Friends of Frank"  (FOF) are reaching out desperately seeking help from any professionals and business owners who could make contributions or donations to help us raise money to help Frank in this time of need.

Anything you can offer will be greatly appreciated.  FOF is currently hosting a benefit on April 5, 2008 at the St. Kevin's Hall in Springfield to raise money for Frank and his family.  We are currently looking for items to be raffled off as well as paper goods, food, beverages and any other items that are used in these fundraiser's.

Sincerely,

I also need help with paying my car payments for February and March.

I need the car to get my interviews and Chemo therapy at the hospital.

If you can help out, please e-mail at engmerryl@hotmail.com

Thanks

If there is anyone out there who can help me with paying my bills and rent for March, providing some extra spending money for March, helping me get a job starting March 2, 2008 and helping with my legal situations, please e-mail me at engmerryl@hotmail.com

Thanks

My nickname is 55Merryl and I have Cancer, but I am unable to pay my premium for insurance, because the worker who was working on my case said I was ineligible to get medical assistance. He did not go over the entire law for the exemptions to find where I was eligile for medical assistance and he said he was not going to go over the entire law to look for the exemption. He was just too lazy to help.

I  live in Pennsylvania .  It was the same thing for Cash Assistance. As a result I have no income for the month of March.

I  will be able to get Disability, but the first I will receive will not be until April 16, 2008

I need an attorney to help me get cash assistance and medical assistance for the Month of March and I need assistance with paying my March's rent.

Also I need money to pay my Bills for March.

I am also looking for work in the area where I live. I live in the Wilkes Barre/Scranton, PA area. The kind of work I am looking for is Customer Service, Paralegal, Data Entry doing Medical Billing and Medical Insurance Claims. I need a job at the least starting around March 2, 2008 so that I have income coming into my household.

I used to work as an Unemployment Claims Interviewer with PA Department of Labor and Industry. The heman resource director of where I work is going around defaming me and telling everybody he can that I was a trouble maker when in fact I was not. He is even allowing former coworkers of mine to try to harass me and steal from me.  As a matter of fact, 3 of my former coworkers got a hold of my bank card and they charged about 200.00 to my account and I had to get my bank to reverse those charges. This happened in November, 2007 and I have hard evidence to that.

I need an attorney to help sue the director of human resources for defamation and harassment and to help me get reinstated right away back to my former job.

Is there anyone out there who can help me with my situation

I am a single mother of a mildly autistic 4 year old boy. Recently I was diagnosed with a severely developed case of systematic lupus, and during the diagnosis it was discovered that I have tumors in my lungs. I have been unemployed while I attend college and I donate most of my free time to my church or others who need help with household chores, grocery shopping, etc. I have always been a charitable woman, a good Christian, and always tried to do my best for me and my son. However, now I am in great need of a vehicle, a place to live, and and financial help that anyone can offer concerning clothing, groceries, and so on. I applied for disability but the waiting period where I live is between 6 months to a year and I haven't even been approved yet. Doctors are telling me I only have a few more years to "make it count" before I am completely bed ridden and will need 24 hour assistance. I have to go for dialysis and many other treatment programs because of damage done to my organs by Lupus. I currently do not have a car and I am in search of a charity that may be able to help- If any one knows something that might help me and my son in our situation I am DESPARATE at this point. I need these treatments to live and at this time I have no transportation ( there is no bus where I live, we live in the hills ) .
