Is there anyone out there that can help,please?

I come to the community not to cry or whine but to plead for a little help. My wife is very ill the doctors have told me to just keep her comfortable for the remainder of her days. We do not even know how much longer she will be able to fight. My wife (Juanita) has COPD lung disease, congestive heart failure, emphysema, three forms of crippling arthritis, thats just for starters. She has medical insurance but they only cover 5 prescriptions a month and Juanita has 23 prescriptions, so i have to cover the rest out of pocket. I drive a taxi and work as much as possible, the problem is business is very slow and i have not even been able to pay the light bill. All i need help with is the $82.00 i am short on the light bill. If we do not have electricity then Juanita does not have the oxygen she depends on to keep her breathing. Please contact me for more info or to help. God Bless and thanks for listening.

Oh honey, I wish I could help you with that. I know what it’s like to have a loved one dying of those ailments. It plagues my family also. I will keep you and Juanita in my thoughts and prayers. I hope that you will come back here often to talk. You will want to, I know it. Love and hugs to you both :D

dan, have you tried going to your local town or city hall *not sure where you live, but* They usually have programs for people who can’t quite make their utility bills. It might take some time but it could be well worth it for you. I mean, no lights, no oxygen… not good. Give it a try, call them and ask. There are a number of agencies who may be able to help you out in your desperate time of need. Just a thought. :D

Yes I have and patiently await a response but im afraid ive done too little too late. The electric company im dealing with does not work with people in need. I have my church calling them now and so far they cant even get anywhere with these people. But, thanks for all your help. I am still researching all kinds of different options.Thanks again God bless you in your situation anmd life.Prayers and hugs to you from us.

you need immediate help…and if the “help” sources that you’re dealing with now, is not working, and that particular angel has’nt found you yet…you need to find a way to get the money on your own…can you sell some of your possessions? work at a day job, think of a service or a product that you can offer…make up some business cards, and start “literally” knocking on doors (in YOUR neighbourhood, or another). when it comes to “money”…there is only three ways to get it; either, you work for it…steal it…or someone gives it to you…so now you only have two choices because, you will not jeopardize both you lives by stealing. i hope an angel sees your plight.

I know this really great website called cashcrate (http://cashcrate.com/678803). People get up to 200 bucks a month just by filling out surveys. It doesn’t give you a whole lot, but it’s still pretty good! This isn’t spam or anything and it isn’t a scam; try looking up things about it and you’ll see for yourself. It’s a legit website that gets paid by sponsors, and when you fill out surveys for those sponsors, cashcrate gives you a percentage of the money they earn. It’s really good!

Some tips:
1) Make another email address and use that so you don’t get spammed.
2) Don’t lie too much on your surveys, ie. your address and your gender and stuff, because cashcrate will find out and may not let you do it anymore, plus it’s where they send you your check!
3) I’m gonna be blunt, if you click through the link I gave you, it gives me a 20% bonus of what you make. You aren’t losing any money by being referred through me, I’m just getting a bonus! You can actually do the same after you sign up. If you refer people after signing up you get the same 20% bonus. Some people just make money off of that instead of filling out surveys!

So, try it out. I know it’s like really repetitive to type all that annoying crap in but hey, you get some cash for it. Try looking up some more tips on the cashcrate forums and that may help you make more money! Good Luck, I hope this helps!

idk, I’ve been on it for two months now and I received two checks from them and those got cashed successfully. I also know people that have been on it for years and they still like it.

what about salvation army or good samaritan? are either of those an option for you? here in TN. we have them but the help is limited as they only help a family every six months.
