Dear Sir or Madam,

I am righting In desperation, I have never begged before and it makes me feel like a bad person to do it.
I will try and pay anyone back who can help with our family situation.

My name is Tammie and I am a wife, mother, hospice nurse (LPN), me ma, and a child of god.
I understand god is stingy with miracles but as much as I pray nothing happens. I am about to have a nervous break down and cry every night for god to help me and my family with our financial problems.

Last year in Oct 2007 My husbands grandmother passed away. We paid not only for my husband and his parents to get to northern Alabama but also for some of the funeral costs. November 2007 My grandmother had to have an emergency CABB. She is alive and well but unable to help us either. In January 2008 We found out my father had caner. I flew back and forth to help my sister with him and his chemo. My sister is still grieving his death and there is nothing I can do from here. May 2008 My husband had to have a Colon resection that took him out of work then he got fired for reasons we are still pondering. May 2008 My own mother had a stint put in her heart, the stint failed…(broke apart weeks later) Causing her to have to have a CABB also. Again I had to fly to calif to help my mother or put her in a nursing home until she recovered from the major surgery. June 2008 My father whom had cancer passed away. I had to take an emergency flight to calif…my father made me promise I would be there to take care of him when the cancer got worse. He ended up having a stroke and the chemo harmed his heart. He couldn’t handle all the health problems and passed.
Then when we were struggling to re coop over the year. My husband got layed off. Even unemployment has given us hassles so we are not getting any money from them. My oldest son is donating food stamps to help us and his son, whom we are raising while he is in school. 18 month old.We have applied for a mortgage mortifications and we are about to lose our cars because we can afford to payments right now… no car no work.
I am beside myself and don’t know what to do. I am asking for prayers and any help that you ma be able to provide. We are not going to have a Christmas or thanksgiving.

I have proof of all the things that have happened over the past years. Paper work and documentation if that would help.
I don’t know what else to do!

God Bless

Tammie

What is Christmas and Thanksgiving? Lavish gifts and big meals? Why do you say you won’t have them? Too many people have forgotten the true meaning of those holidays. Spend Thanksgiving being thankful for each other. At Christmas share the gift of Love among yourselves.

I know this isn’t much help but hopefully you can be encouraged to look beyond the present trials.

It dosn’t matter how nice the things are you have in life. It’s how much fun you have with your loved ones.

Have you checked with local charities or shelters? Salvation army, Churches, etc.

Down size. Sell the place and rent. Take your losses and get out. If the economy totally collapses you’d be better off that way. Find a local financial advisor for advice.
