Hello.
I am a single struggling mother of 3 very great girls and one of them is disabled. Our only income right now is very low. We get 583.00 a month for my girls disability and all of us are in school. My daughter has several issues as she has ADHD, very severe learning disabilities, and has very significant developmental delays. I also suffer severely with multiple mental health issues and am having a horrible time right now. It is a very long story but to make it short, we are 2 months behind on the mortgage and 2 months behind on my lot rent. My mortgage is 292.00 per month and the lot rent is 160.00 per month. The finance company of my mobile home is foreclosing on me and I am in a very dire situation and need help. I have searched and searched everywhere and can not find help and I am very depressed and my stress/anxiety is rocketing day after day. They keep calling and I have not one dollar to my name so help me God. We live hand to mouth and most months we literally go hungry at times as the stamps never last us and the prices of food now are expensive. I need help PLEASE help us. I lost my job because my car was stolen ¾ weeks ago and the guy wrecked it and left it and it got towed and when I picked it up, it was with a lot of damage and I don’t have the money to get it fixed and so my job fired me and I am hurting inside very badly. I was stuck paying the tow and storage and the guy is in prison but they ordered no restitution so I got stuck with the charges and the repairs which I definitely can not afford. I am without transportation and unable to even look for work and my girls and I are suffering badly. I prayed to God to guide me now and that is when I found your site. I am praying and hoping you will find it in your heart to help us. PLEASE I WILL BEG IF THAT WILL HELP. PLEASE HELP US. I am getting disconnected from my electric company also if I don’t catch that up and the phone etc will be cut off too if I can not find any where to help us. I live in a very small tiny place and a very rural area where there are no jobs so that means I would have to travel at least an hour to look for a decent paying job and I can not since my car is messed up so badly. It is in need of much repair and on top of that needs all the tires and brakes, and inspection, and an alignment, disks, control arms, and calipers if that wasn’t enough, I had to pay out nearly 300 dollars to get it out of tow and get it home to avoid more storage charges. Me having to spend that money contributed a lot to my arrears now and I can not get any of it paid as my girls and I only get 583.00 and that does not go very far. Last month we literally went days hungry and that is the God’s truth. My girls and I have absolutely no help and we are alone and have no where to live if we get kicked out and they will take my home unless I get it paid up. We will be on the street literally. I would not even have anywhere to put my modest furniture or anything. Please understand and in Gods name have a heart and help me PLEASE. I have no family to help me and my kids father will not send the child support like he is ordered to and we are in a terrible bind. I feel so down and depressed and am going through so much right now I have no where to turn so I looked for help and came across your site and I read that you help people who are needy and we most certainly fit that category. We have not even one dollar I swear. Any help you can give us would be so greatly appreciated and really desperately needed. I do not know what do or have no where to turn. I beg of you please help. My needs are pretty great but to many this would be a very small thing. The 2 payments of 292.00 of my mortgage may as well be 2000. Right now I swear to you I have not a dime to my name. I am so worried about my situation. My children are very respectful and very well behaved and are so very deserving of so much better but I did not choose this life for us. Their father put us in a situation that we could not help. I suffer too many mental health issues myself and this horrible nightmare is getting to me really I am terribly down and depressed. I am so stressed and my anxiety is sky high. I worry every minute of the day and can now not even sleep. My appetite is nearly zero and I can barely drag myself out of bed every day. I feel so much doom and despair. I find each day to be horrible and I know that my girls are suffering because I am unable to even function now. I am so worried about this that crazy thoughts are starting to surface in my head and that really scares me. I am all my children have. My parents both are deceased and they have been since I was a small child. I have no one to even offer support as far as to talk to much less financially. I beg of you PLEASE WILL YOU HELP??? I have a phone right now but I don’t know for how long. Two of us take online classes and desperately need to keep the internet connection on but it too is going to be cut off unless I can get this mess straightened out. When the guy stole my car he also took my check book. My bank hit me with fees after fees as they would not work with me at all on the stolen checks he wrote. So also those charges hurt us badly and further took away for the mere 583.00 that we are forced to live on. I am sick about all this and if you will call me I will do my very best to answer any and all your questions that I can I promise you this is for real I am not trying to scam you as I am sure you must get a lot of or so I would think. PLEASE FOR GODS SAKE WILL YOU PLEASE HELP US? I will be totally in your debt and God will surely bless you for it. I would be glad to provide you with addresses of where these payments normally go and if you choose to help me, to make you feel much better you don’t even have to include me at all you can mail them directly to the mortgage company and the lot rent place/lights/phone company etc. I am not implying that you will pay all of this, just hoping that you can. If you can help at all with anything for me and my girls, it will surely be better than nothing at all. I trust in God and I trust he will touch your heart and you will really help us. God bless you and thank you so very much. If you can help us, we need any and all help we can get honestly I don’t even have a dime right now. PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! I know that I am asking for a lot but we are a family in need and also include a disabled child. Can your organization help us out with financial help? To me right now, ten dollars is a fortune. Maybe your organization gets enough support that you can help with all of this. I know there are so many people who spend money like it will never run out. They spend more on their manicures etc than we do on our mortgage. I actually am hoping that you will find my needs as modest and will be able to help us with the most of it but if you can’t then I surely will understand. If your organization can’t help us, could you tell me where to look for help? Maybe you know of some agencies that help with my needs. We really need some help as I am penniless and have no money at all. We need groceries too really bad as I said, we have recently literally gone hungry and days we have only bread and water and a pack of meat. If not for all of us please do it for my children. They are very good kids and very deserving of good things certainly not this kind of life. It would kill me if my girls had to face being homeless. I feel very much like a failure to them so please in GODS NAME understand this and help us I AM BEGGING!. My girls so deserve a break, they have been through a lot in their young lives and they (we all) suffer pretty severely just getting through day to day. They know poverty very well and I am sick of this life and sometimes wish I would just die. Can your organization help us? Our lives at substantially lacking much of what many do have but often take for granted so easily. It is amazing how much some children have in this life and they take for granted while others have so little like my girls and they never complain but they do suffer. I know to them that even the most minor little thing means so much. Please can your organization help? I am so broke and don’t have any money for food or gas or anything. We have been washing our clothing in shampoo. We don’t even have toiletries as my food stamps will not pay for that sort of thing. We are in terrible situation. We live in such a small area, (Elkin), and here, we have no resources because we are so small and I can’t find any help. I have also searched all the areas also that surround me. I know it is very hard to comprehend or even believe the situation that I am in and if you have never lived it, it is even harder to understand but I am in such a horrible situation that right now I am totally broke. My daily life is scrapping pennies literally. I don’t even have a dollar in my pocket. Have you ever experienced your child asking you for a 99 cent candy bar and you have to hold back tears and try to swallow the big lump in your throat because you know you have to say no. You know you have to answer her but you just don’t know how to come up with the words to say knowing well that there is really no way to explain to a 7 year old child that you don’t have it. She does not understand that money is very hard to have for those who don’t have it. Well that is our daily life. I pray and I pray about my life and my situation and I am at the point where I am even beginning to doubt my spirituality and my faith. I am crying out for help desperate to find a helping hand. I don’t want pity, I want help. Please may your organization help us? I am not looking for charity; I am looking for a helping hand. I have no family support at all either. I have no husband, I have no parents they died when I was a kid, as did my grandparents. I am the first in my family to even get past the ninth grade which makes me very proud but the fact that I can no find a job makes me ashamed. I recently finished my BA in Business and it was all hard work and I did it for my girls. They make my life worth living. There is nothing significant to me in life like my daughters. I struggle so hard and they that. They never really want or ask for anything. I feel so bad I feel so alone and in despair. Can you please help us or tell us who we can turn to? I don’t know how much more of this I can take. I cry so much all the time and stay really down and depressed all the time. I stay in bed most days and it’s all I can do to just get up in the morning and meet the day, take a shower, etc. I want to be a better parent for my kids but I can’t I need help. They need me and I am all that they have and at times I feel that I have failed them terribly. I know that everyone has it hard these days, but hard isn’t the word for our situation, I would call it destitute. I too need my life back. Will you PLEASE help us, for GOD”S SAKES, or tell us where to turn. I have tried SO MANY PLACES!!!!
