I doubt anyone will give money because is smells of a scam. Sorry.

If this is real, try your local place of worship. Try social services, perhaps you can get welfare. Talk to the bank, they are usually willing to work with people who are down on their luck.

What about your husbands job? Disability?

Extremely upsetting that anyone would be so cold. I am a mother of ten kids, 6 of them have gone to college, and made a life for themselves, in my 41 tears, I have never asked anyone for help, even when I was younger my father was hurt when he fell off a bulding and broke his back in 3 spots, from that day on, he never worked, so instead of being a typical teenager, I worked to do what ever I could to bring money into the house to feed everyone, and not once did I complain, about not having designer clothes, or even having a dollar for a pop. And because of losing our home to foreclosure, and than having to file bankruptcy, a bank will not even look at us, it is very dishearting, because we had worked so hard to get where we were. We have gone to welfare, they offered us 60.00 a month in food stamps, that would feed who, the dogs. We have also gone to the salvation army, all they could do was give us frozen crab legs, and a few notebooks for the kids for school/. so to anyone out there who thinks this is a scam are very wrong, I am a good person with a good heart, and for anyone to had said that, really hurts, I certainly am not a liar, and even if some one were to help me, I would not want to see a dime, I would just like to have someone help me to give money direcxtly to utility companies, not to me. So please before you say anything, think about others, my family has had the worse luck, and I hope and pray that someday, we will get out of this, maybe win the lotto, because if I ever did win a lotto, I would certainly help others.

When my husband was out of work he was on disability, but with that only being helf of his salary, we lost our home to foreclosure, and because of the foreclosure, we have to rent, so even if we wanted to go to the bank, we could not, because if we did they would laugh in our face. People, banks, organizations, do not want to help people who are down on there luck, but they are more than willing to help people who do not need it. My husband is now back to work, but because of being out of work so long, everything (bills) were put on hold, and now they are outrageous, 2 of the bills are so outarageous that soon they will be disco. I pay on everything every month to bring the balances down, but as soon as I get close, something else happens or comes up, that has to be paid, and things just go right back to where they were.

I am not a scammer far from it, I am a mom, a wife a daughter, who in the past two years has had the worse luck, If you were diagnosed with cancer, and or had a heart attack, woiuld you want someone to call you a liar no. Because of where, my family is now, I do not even refill the medications, because I had my heart attacks last december, and was put on 5 different medicines, For a few months, i got the refills every weeks, and they helped, but because every month, the money I had to pay, that was not paid by the insurance company was 80.00 I could no longer afford, the 80.00 a month, Is groceries on the table for my family, I am not thinking about my self, I am thinking about my family and there well being. Now because I do not take the blood pressure medicine, or the plavix, or even the aspirin, every day i wake up feeling worse then the one beofre, I have terrible headaches, my heart pounds, if I even walk up the stairs, I am not sure how long my body will keep up, Bujt in the mean time, I have to take care of my family, It may kill me, and I regret that every day, but i have no other choice, and no one out there helps anyone, even the richest person in the world. So please do not say someone is running a scam, before you know who they are, I came across this web site, just browsing, and thought I would write this.

Well, the best I can offer is to pray for you. But what about the kids, aren’t they old enough to help you out?

Six kids graduated? If the youngest in college is 18 and the oldest 24, then you were 16 or 17 when you got married or at least started having kids.

Please name your 5 heart blood pressure medications. If you answer correctly I will believe you.

Also, birthdates of the kids?

People are skeptical nowadays.

I did not say you are a scammer. I am saying that you are trying to get a loan.

‘all money will be repaid’

That’s a loan. Or a promisory note.

what would it be, I really am not sure, I just do not want to wake up one day, especially now when getting to be cold with no gas or electric, it scares me, and for the car, my husaband is back to work, but what happens if they take the car, we live 45 minutes from his job, he will have no way to get there,

I see. I am sorry for all of your trouble. Perhaps if you are willing to disclose your location, somebody could give you some advice as to how you can recieve some aid.

Some drug companies will give you free medication if you contact them and fill out some forms.

I will pray for you, and I am very sorry for your trouble.

I live in northern Illinois, I have gone to welfare to apply for food stamps, they offered me and my family 60.00 a month, I have written and called 3 different companies in regrds to my medication, 3 of them they do not cover, I even tried the one that montel williams raved about, nothing. Every day i wake up, and thank god that i made it another night, my last visit to the emergency room, because i fell down the stairs from becoming dizzy, my blood pressure were at 230/150. they thought i was going to have a stroke, they immediately put medicines through IV to get them down, for two days I felt good, but because of stress, and constantly worrying they just go back up. I am afraid, that one day I will not wake up. or that I am walking down the street with my 4 year old and something happens, who will raise him, my husband who had non-hodgkins b cell lymphomia, his future does not look very bright, I know that someone has put some sort of curse on me and my family, and I am afraid that our bad luck will just continue. I just want one day to be good, I would live to bring my children out for ice cream, or even out to a movie. I would love to be able to feed them fish for dinner, I would love to be able to take my medication, and feel good, and not have a pain in my heart, but untill I can win the lotto or somehow get all of my bills 0f $2500.00 that are past due, and bring them current, I will never have a day like that. I have just lost hope in everything and pretty much everyone.

Could any or all of the six college graduates contribute some money to help you and your husband get financially stable?

You can also try your luck at online charities like Modest Needs, people may send donations, if your requirement is genuine. From http://www.laodn.org/

We have two that are graduated, one of them has a family of his own, and can barely make it as well, and the second, lives in china is working there, but he helps his mother, the other 4 are all still in school, three of them in freshman year, i am sure if any of them had anything they would certainly help us. thank you for replying.

what? you have the money for internet yet not for bills? we have had a similar situation and utility providers were willing to work with us. im not trying to be judgemental here but out of 6 kids none can contribute anything to help their mother who may very possibly die tomorrow? im not sure i believe all, or any of this story but if i were you i would notify a local news station of your situation -they can set up a fund for you. i have done this 5 times in the past for families in our area in need. in one case we managed to provide a home (repo mobile home dealership donated) all we had to come up with was expenses to move home, and thru donation account at bank we were able to raise enough, furnished home (donations from citizens) clothing for parents and 5 children. also managed about 1500 in cash for them to get power and everything turned on. 2500 should be relatively easy. i would be happy to help you with getting everything set up if you would like.
