Spider bite

Dec 26, 2011
I woke up in the middle of the night with my finger hurting,I think its a spider bite. It looks all blue and black and red. Lucky for me I had the medications from last time I got bit. I have allergic reactions to spider bites. Every night I shake out the bed and pillows to make sure a spider is not there. I can't help but get ill at my tummy from thinking about spiders. The creme is helping the bite. Thank God for that! I am stressed,nervous and feel ill. BUt thanks for listening everyone. God is Good!

We Need Donations Please

Jul 28, 2011

I need people to donate, my mother has Leukemia and she has been receiving some treatments. The problem is that she can't work and we are in a very difficult situation. To the point that we can't even pay our rent and bills and even food. I spend my time taking care of her and taking her to the doctor. And apart from that we don't have funds to keep paying for the medication she receives and doctor. So please, if you can help us by donate money to us it would really help us out and we would be eternally grateful. My mother really is sick and we really need your help! Here is my Paypal email: sheik3ds@yahoo.com

Hello, I am a single mother, I have a daughter and i have dedicated myself only to her. I never got married or got together with another man ever again since my daughter was born. Because i feared that something could happen to my child or she could be abused. That is why i stayed single taking care of my daughter, I have always worked cleaning houses to be able to survive my daughter and i. We don't have a home of our own or a car. We have always rented rooms with other people. Because I can't afford to rent an apartment or studio for the two of us only. My daughter still can't work yet to help me. Both my daughter and i have no addiction to anything. We don't drink or smoke or anything like that. We have never had any legal problems of police, we don't have any criminal record. My daughter and i are very peaceful pacific people and we don't like getting into trouble of like problems at all. But now I have a very big problem, Its my health. After feeling very ill and even ending up in the hospital. I had gotten some exams and i was detected a renal and liver problem along with diabetes. And that is why I've almost gone blind. I cannot see 60% well, which is why now i cannot even work. I don't know what I'm going to do, I can't even pay my bills and my rent. And I am always in need of food for the next days and the worst thing is i don't even have funds to be able to put myself in the hands of a good doctor so i could get the treatment i need and medication as well as the tests i need so my health doesn't get worst. I don't even have any glasses to be able to see a bit better. I don't have anything to be able to go to an eye doctor and get the glasses i really need for my eyes.
This is why I dare to ask people of good will, good heart, have compassion of me and help me by donating what ever you can, What ever you want so I am able to survive in these difficult times for me and to be able to get a doctor and the treatment i really need as well as keeping a roof above my daughters head and having a warm place to sleep at night. May god bless you all

Please read this page to see what the donations will be used for

Hello, I stumbled upon this site searching for help with home repairs.  I am 46 years old, married, and have two teenage children.  My husband has 4 kids ranging in age from mid 30's to 17.  If I were to read my own story, I would think that it had to be fictitious because no one has that much bad luck.  I will not even bother to go into detail about past situations, because it would BE a book!!! I think I will start with my physical ailments.  A few years ago I had to have a hysterectomy for growths.  It turns out that one of these growths was a very rare form of cancer. Luckily it was not an aggressive type and the treatment is to have a hysterectomy!!  None the less, it was a very scary time.  For some reason, the doctor who performed the surgery did not "believe" in using the usual drugs for pain management and talked me into using a spinal for this purpose. Unfortunately, my body did not appreciate this.  I remember waking up after the surgery and not being able to breath and before I passed out again, I had the pleasure of being ventilated while semiconscious.  Long story short-The second day I went back to work, I had a grand Mal seizure.  Back out of work i went, this time with a new and improved ailment.  I was put on drugs that made me a zombie, and after 3 months went back to work.  2 weeks of work and yep another grand Mal seizure.  I was out of work once again.  After two years, I finally stopped having severe seizures and started working again. I went back to work for the same place and all was good.  Then one day out of the blue, I had a bout of shortness of breath.  I also noticed that I had some very odd sores on my  arms, and they had some very strange looking hair growing out of them. As time went on more and more symptoms appeared.  I went to several doctors and, for the most part they told me it was....stress, self induced, stress, a virus, dry skin, anxiety, age, stress, looking for attention...need I go on.  I started doing my own research and realized that what i might have is  morgellons disease. This horrible malady is not even listed as a disease.  Most people who claim to have it are automatically told they are delusional.  This is not the case but that is what most of us are told.  I can assure you, I am not delusional, but infected with something that causes open sores on my body that do not heal, short term memory loss, severe fatigue, intestinal problems, respiratory problems, personality changes, brain fog or forgetfulness..the list is bigger, but I think you will get the point.  I became progressively worse, and in the middle of all this, I decided to take a different job.  Some days it was so hard to even get out of bed, but i managed to keep up and felt that even though I was suffering, my work was not.  Then last summer, one of the people that i did work for decided to go back to their country of origin.  About a week after this decision, all of a sudden my work was just not good enough.  I was criticized about everything I did, scolded, forced to produce document after document stating what I did minute by minute. I got yelled at for not doing things that I had implemented in the first place, endured people that I worked for changing their minds about what they wanted from me,,blah blah blah. One week before  Christmas, and a few days before this person left, believing that I was going to discuss family leave because my son had a MRSA infection, i was greeted with a room full of people.  it seems that I was now criminal, accused of falsifying my time worked. I was put on the colleges do not hire list, lost 15 years worth of severance pay, lost my insurance, lost the partial tuition benefit , and when I tried to grievance this, these people pretty much made it impossible to do.  Funny, I was never charged with theft and the evidence they used were emails that I sent saying that i was not or would not be at work.  Hmm, that's like calling a store to tell them you are stopping by to do a little shoplifting.  I can not collect unemployment because the college refused.  BAD huh.  Well 2 weeks after I was fired, my husband received a call telling him that he was not going to get called back after his normal winter lay off....reason-they wanted to hire someone younger, and also that he was absent too much.   So here we are, no jobs a small check of 150 for four people per week and the biggest reason i am writing this.  Several years ago, we had a house fire.  We could only afford a trailer after all was said and done.  The trailer was well used and 12 years old when we got it.  Through the years, it has slowly deteriorated to the point of being a health hazard.  Th floors are rotting, the electric is totally messed- have had 2 small fires,  the windows leak, the insulation is almost gone in the walls, and totally gone underneath(flood) the furnace and duct work don't work or have fallen apart.  The plumbing leaks,and over the winter the entire area was infested with a rat clan.  We have tried everything to get rid of them, but like many others around us, we are not making much progress----they have chewed holes everywhere.  We are in desperate need of a new manufactured home, but with no jobs and no money we are pretty much destitute.  I am having a very hard time finding a job because of my physical problems and the fact that I was accused of financial irregularities.  Did I mention that I think the trailer may have black mold from all of the leaks??  I know this sounds to far fetched to be true, but it is, and I am living it.  I am scared, embarrassed about the house, and feel so bad for my kids who can't even have a friend over because the house is falling apart.  I can't write anymore so I am going to stop( that is part of the fatigue)  I can sum this word vomit that I just wrote with one simple word  HELP

I have been on my own since I was 9.  I was never given proper medical care.  My teeth are badly compromised, my kidneys hurt and I have a pain in my right lung that scares me.  I can't make ends meet on top of everything else.  I am 30 and I am afraid I wont live to see 35.  I am afraid I will see a morgue before I see a dr.  I can't afford insurance nor do I qualify for AHCCS.  I am not looking for a handout.  I just want enough relief so that I can make payments to one person rather than 50 institutions.  If someone can just give me a break for once I can show how dedicated I can be when I am not worrying about how to live.  Please help me.

Nov 15, 2008

I don't know what to do.....so lost, and I just can't seem to get a head. Last year my 3 children and I suffured a house fire...months after that I was in the burn unit ICU w/ SJS. There was no waking up last year to a christmas, I was souly dependent on my husdand, which we r no loger together..leaving me with all the bills, and medical expences. I am not the one to ask for help....There are many people out there who have had harder times. I have a 15 year old boy, a 13 year old boy and my 11 year old daughter, plus my teenage neices living with me.  I have tried to seel my home, but w/ todays market, i am going into forcloser.

I am living off of SSI at the age of 34. any type of help would be a blessing from God. We are trying to raise money to get ahead on bills and house payments, as well as Christmas.

what do I do? I hear about Gov grants, but don't even have the money for shipping cost.

I am in and out of the hospital, but do have medicare. thank you God.

I just cry everytime I think of the kids waking up once again to no Christmas, no Christmas meal, not even a tree. I know its not all about getting gifts, but when one of your children ask you.."Mommy did Santa foget about us this year?" What do you say.

Advice, please help me help them.

 Thank you and God Bless.

Single Mom Needs Help With Rent Willing To Repay

Oct 9, 2008
I'm Brandi, a single mother of one. I'd been working at a temp agency for the last year while taking classes full-time. My daughter became ill in early August and she was unable to attend childcare. I had to take off 9 days of work and we are only allowed to miss 2 days. Since then, I have not been able to find a job that pays as well as the staffing company. I recently started a work study job which barely covers my rent.I'm still behind on all my bills and behind one month on my rent. My landlord served me with a 5 day notice on October 7. Four days after, I paid Sept rent and the late fee. I have no money to move with and nowhere to go. If I pay by Oct. 11, he said he wouldn't go ahead with an eviction. I really need someone's help. I've been very depressed. I've gained 15pounds in less than two months; I have uncontrollable crying which, I cannot control in front of my daughter. I cannot get another job because I cannot afford weekend pay towards childcare.  My rent is 635.

I would sign a repayment agreement  to pay back weekly or monthly.

If you are able to help please contact me.

 

Thanks,

Please help me be debt-free

Sep 15, 2007

Hello all,

I'm looking for help to pay off my various debts. Any amount will be greatly appreciated. I built up £40K of debts in the past years and am struggling to get back on track. I have a good job now, but need to at least decrease my overall debt a bit in order to get back on my feet. Most of my monthly wages are spent just to pay interest on debt and I really can do with some help.

I don't have any kids and appreciate there are people in far worse situation than me. I am young, healthy and have a job. So if you are looking for a very worthy cause, I don't think I am the most needy or desperate case. I accumulated my debts after a relative fell ill and I spent a few years flying in and out of the country, helping out with hospital bills and eventually giving up my job for a year. Thankfully, they recovered and I am back at work. But I do need someone to help me and would be most grateful if you are in a position to do so.

Any help you can offer will be met with great thanks, even positive thinking! If I manage to half my debts, it would already be a fantastic start.

Thanks for reading!

Lou

Just once I wish something good would happen,

Aug 23, 2007

  I am a married lady who is trapped in an abusive marriage, because of the debt we have incurred.  I work and my husband works, living paycheck to paycheck just isn't cutting it.  I am ill with arthritis and emphsyma and can't seen  to gain any weight, I am 5'7" and weigh 94lbs.  

My one wish is that some kind person will come along and offer to help, I can't pledge anything as I have all I can do to work now,   I am estimating to pay off everything would be around  $10,000.   

 I would appreciate any help offered.  thank you. Nancy 

 Well, I guess we will go on the way we are.   I am still hoping for the best, but  doubt is taking hold.
