Mom with stage 4 cancer

I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer 3 years ago. For the first two years I only had medicare, no secondary ins. or prescription coverage and am deeply in debt. I get SS disability but don't make it from paycheck to paycheck. My youngest son is 10 and I'd like to leave him some memories and not have to say "no, we can't afford it" all the time. I also need to bury myself, I can't get life insurance. I will pay it forward and have actually been in the "giving" position myself years ago and felt so good about it, I can't believe I'm in this position, I've never asked for anything before. Thank you for listening (or reading), I know nothing will happen but it helped to get it out.

Will Things Ever Get Better?!!

Right now we are behind on our lot rent. It's $100.00 Plus it's late now so there is a $25.00 late charge. I know $125.00 is not much but we don't even have $5. My 57 year old husband does tile & stucco/masonry work. That's all he has ever done. He's really good at it but there has been NO work for the past 4 months. His mom helped us out last month but she's not able to help us again. I hate asking for money. I've never asked in public.My husband could do some work for the $125.00 if there is someone out there that has tile, stucco, stone fireplace or chimney or walkway needing repair/project. I have been a stay home mom for years now. I have serious physical problems that limit me.
I dream of having millions of dollars & how awesome it would be to help those who need. It's not supposed to be this way. Thanks for taking time to read this anyway. Great way to vent!

Be thankful this Thanksgiving

I know that everyone is struggling and can’t get things going or you are having problems just to live. Maybe you just got a head with things but then bang another problem came your way and you are wondering, how are you going to survive this one. I feel for you and I understand. I understand because I’ve been there. But you must be thankful this Thanksgiving.

I know it easier said than done. But look at it this way. You have a full life in front of you and you now have a good beginning to things. If you can’t get it together now, wait until tomorrow and start again. If you can’t see the future because you hate what is happening to you right now, then tomorrow can be a new.

Be thankful that you can go forward and you can move on. Be thankful that you have a life that you can make a change and you are in control. Be thankful that you woke up today and you are tired of worrying and are going to take action. Be thankful that you have people who can help you and they are all around you, you are just not seeing that right now. Be thankful that you can change your life and make it right. Be thankful that you are not the only going through this problem. Be thankful that you have the rest of your life to make it right. Be thankful.

Look, I know the feelings; I know about struggling, I know that it’s not easy. But one thing I did learn is that you can make the change and make it right. You can be good and wonderful with what you have and how to make it right. You can stop the wheels of life and let it go the other direction. Yes, you can. So be thankful.

No matter how you do it or what you do, have a great Thanksgiving and remember to be thankful.

About Sally88

There are so many of us that need at least a little help, nice to know I'm not the only one pulling my heart out from the stress and trying to fight off the sadness of it all.

I have a lot of bills, a lot of debt, a couple health problems, no job, no health insurance, no prospects. I've applied for half a dozen jobs this past month, scored on a couple interviews but nothing panned out. Pet sitting has helped me with the bare essentials but that is pretty dead-end and not enough to reduce my debts or get ahead.

If there were some type of scam-free grant that could allow me to go to college, or to find a place that I could go that would ensure me a job, that would be an answer to my wishes. I don't understand how to write a grant, if I did I would have already tried that, kudos to those that can!

I never thought I'd be doing anything like this but here it goes.  I guess I should preface this by a remark that my mother has made my whole life and that is "If you didn't have bad luck you wouldn't have any luck." No words ever said were more true.  I lost my job of 28 years about 5 years ago and have just about lost everything Ive ever had.  I know everyone is in the same boat but I could really use some help.  Help me save my house. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

About jim53

 I have most recently been reluctant to ask for help because I felt it to be a lack of faith and was accustomed to giving rather than recieving. Now I ask.

 My wife of thirteen years thought I was her problem and wanted a divorce. Although she now regrets it I am emotionally exhausted with the comings and goings and the promises. The stakes were higher this time. I was finally, at 57 years of age, able to purchase a home in September of '08. She left in May of '09. My back's sore, it's winter and the seller wants to foreclose on my 20K equity. I need 5K to stay here and move on with my life. I welcome any communication and support. I'm an ebayer (801buddy) who's bought about 60 items and sold 2. I have a paypal account.

 I appreciate you taking the time to read this.

                                                               Thanks, Jim  jk848@q.com

Happy Holidays to All

I started on here a long time ago asking for help.  I did not know how to solve some problems and I got plenty of advice from everyone.  This Christmas is the first year I have not been able to afford to buy presents for my family and friends.  On Christmas Day I am going to call all of them and wish them a happy day and a great 2010.  My phone has unlimited minutes and that is my present to my friends this year. 

When I first asked for help I was so down and worried and some of you said God will make a way.  None of you made fun or belittled me for making a request for help.  Well, God did make a way for me to get my things.  I still am behind in rent but the landlord is being patient.  I am still behind in my electric bill and the company gave me an extension.  So, all in all, things are OK.  They could be better but OK works right now.

I also got a job.  It doesn't take care of everything but it is a JOB.  So even though life is not swell, as the saying goes, I have my health, my family, my friends and GOD in my corner.  So I am thankful and looking forward to 2010.  I've been at the bottom (still real close to it) but I know that I can move up - step by step, little by little.  

Never give up.  Keep praying, keep moving yourself to higher levels of thought.  We are all here for a reason.  This is the season so find your reason.  Again, I thank you for all the advice - it made me rise to a higher level and once I reached that level I was able to help myself.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS.  Good luck to all.  I keep you in my prayers.  You will triumph over your situation - just don't give up.
