Hello I’m Theresa and I’m 48yr old mother of an 8 yr old and have worked all my life I recently had to stop working my overnight freight unloading job at a retail pharmacy due to arthritis in both my knees and have totally drained all my savings and unemployment resources. I have been applying to jobs that are more sedentary with absolutely no luck. I applied for ssdi (disability) and was turned down because “ I could get a job that I could be sedentary at and only lift up to 10 lbs”. I am in serious need to cover bills this month while I try to figure out what to do next. I’ve totaled them up and about $900 would cover most necessaries for this month if anyone would be willing to help. Thank you in advance. Theresa ❤️

Hello. It's taken time to be humbled to ask for help like this. Please be kind.
I don't want to complicate things with many details, so if you have questions just ask. I'm 53 and been working overseas for several years. Not exotic as it might sound, just a decent life. Around the time of Covid I was diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB), and been very sick ever since. I went through a 9 month treatment with powerful antibiotics that kept me very ill the whole time. Afterwards my breathing kept getting worse, and then found I still have a strenuous pulmonary infection from the same TB family. So I'm back on the hard meds again and currently require supplemental oxygen to breathe throughout most of the day.
During this time the company I worked for had financial problems and disappeared. Because I was ill for so long and no one contacted me, I made a mistake about the visa expiration date. Now I'm correcting this with a temporary medical extension of stay, but there are costs involved that will have to come out of rent money.
Throughout most of my treatment I had a decent savings and spent only on meds, hospitals and rent while travel restrictions have been in place the whole time for Covid. But by my 2nd diagnosis it was mostly all gone. Family and friends were the first to help, but many have hard times after Covid. Needing oxygen and continuing treatment as I do, if I find myself unable to pay rent in a foreign country it could become life threatening very quickly. It's clear I can't fly without oxygen, and airlines do not provide this. They do allow certain models of portable, battery powered O2 concentrators with 1.5X battery power of the total flight duration, but these are difficult to source and cost roughly USD $3k.
What I urgently need now is temporary help with rent and continuing meds, and any help towards acquiring one of the airline approved portable O2 units that could help me finally get back home. If I could make it home, family can at least help with basic needs and survival. If you can see it within your heart to help donate, I will definitely pay it forward when possible. Thank you for reading this far.

Struggling with insurance and student depts |

Hi there, my name is Róbert and I live in the winter wonderland of Iceland.
I know there are people out there who need more help than I do, so please if you want to help someone out, check out other people who are struggling more than I am.
These past two years have been hard financially for me and for a lot of other people. I had a part time job for those two years while studying. I had a student loan that I had to pay in full my second year because I failed a class. And now I finally have a good full time job, but I still can’t enjoy my earnings because I have so many depts on my back. I appreciate every single one of you, just for reading this. It’s good to get it off my chest somehow, not just hold it all in and pretend everything is fine. My family has been able to help but I haven’t told them about all the depts because I don’t want them to go broke just by helping me pay off my depts. I also lost my stepdad in May, was a very difficult time. Not only did we go through a loss of a loved one, so much terrible stuff came up after that. I don’t think I should share the details on that on here. I hope anyone who is going through tough times can relate in anyway to my words and know that you are not alone.
Getting this off my chest felt good, and if anyone is thinking of helping me out I highly appreciate that and wish you the best in everything you do.
Love, Róbert ![[Image: 2764.png]](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t6c/1/16/2764.png)

After seeing my kids in okc I had a mental break and started drinking again. I missed my flight and then got stranded twice with greyhound. I finally made it home but my girlfriend booted me during all this so I'm couching. All the travel and headache has left me completely broke with out food or a place. My financial instability has left me in a bad place mentally. And I could really just use some help. My venmo is @napodaca5

I was in a big wreck where my vehicle was totalled
I had to move from one city to a different city to a hotel where I could be close to work since I could no longer drive. I have been trying to save to move but its been difficult. I still have no vehicle so I uber everywhere or walk but since it's getting colder we can't walk to much anymore. I have bad credit and it will take me more money to move than normal since I do not have a cosigner or roommates to move with me. I don't have family that has money to help that I could pay back so I'm seeking else where. I do work full time but because I have a child its hard for me to get another full time job and I do not own a computer or laptop to be able to work online. We have been in the hotel for months and didn't realize how hard it would be to be able to move out of the situation with no vehicle, bad credit and only making so much money monthly. I'm looking for help financially to hopefully have a chance to move into a permanent home and have a good holiday for my little one and myself. As well as to get into a vehicle. With anyone willing or able to help it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, **cashapp- $Buttercup825. **paypal- @JB1315.

Electric Bill for Mentally Ill Mother. |

Hello, I'm not sure what help I can get or if this will even work. However, I have run out of options and wish to at least try. I will admit I have posted this on a few different sites to try and get some help.
My name is Ash. I am trying to raise funds to get my mother's electricity back on. It has been off for over a month and I cannot afford to get it back on. My mother has always been mentally unstable. She has bipolar, depression, and is slightly schizophrenic. Unfortunately, the pandemic has made this much worse and affected her in a very bad way.
She has spent years trying to manage and help herself. Medication and therapy. She found a doctor and was doing very well the last few years. Well enough that I moved away before the pandemic hit its high point. I live in a completely different state and do not have a car myself. Her boyfriend of seven years broke up with her and stole her car.
Needless to say, the breakup caused her mental state to plummet. Since she lives in a rural area she couldn't get to her doctor's appointments, I'm sure she also didn't even want to. She no longer had the medication, or help that she needed. The events also caused her to lose her doctor, and she was unable to receive any unemployment. She was paying her bills with the stimulus checks and had not let me know had bad it had gotten.
It wasn't until she called me to let me know the power had been shut off that I learned about everything. Since then I have been helping her try and get a new doctor to get back on her medications. I have also been helping her keep her other utilities on, like gas since the heat runs through it
However, I cannot afford the electric bill. By the time they turned it off, it was nearing $2000 since they left it on during the pandemic. Since then they have started charging again. They also need a connection fee since it's been off for so long, and honestly, it's just too far outside my budget. I'm also worried because it is getting cold fast, and sadly the heating in the house ran on electricity.
It will be a long process to get her back to a healthy mental state, and I'm willing to do what I can for her. However, I am also aware that I need help. So I figured I could at least give this site a shot.
Thank you for listening to my story.

Sadly I have been unable to receive any help so far. My mother still has no Electricity, water, or heat. I recently lost my job and am struggling financially myself. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Help a Mother Out? |

Hello, thank you for stopping by and taking the time to read this. My name is Karina and I’m 25 years old. My story starts about 3-4 years ago. I actually had a good-paying, reliable job and my husband and I were able to save money and set it aside for emergencies. My husband was also working at the same job as me and was making good money too. We almost started to get comfortable. Then my husband’s health, at first gradually and then suddenly, declined. He developed problems sleeping, he is in constant pain from multiple medical problems that have yet to be properly diagnosed, and worst of all he suffers from PTSD. None of the tests the doctors have taken have come back with answers, and the medications they’ve tried have had little to no effect. At this point he is suffering in silence every day of his life because he barely gets 5 hours of sleep consistently each night, he is always nauseous, his stomach is in physical pain, he has migraines, kidney stones, etc. and it has caused his depression to get so much worse.
Of course, my mental state got worse as his physical health decreased. Our finances got really bad too. Medical bills started piling up faster than I expected. We had to use our credit cards more than we wanted because of big home repairs (had to replace well, get water filter for rust, replace furnace, replace hot water heater, new plumbing. Etc.) and major vehicle problems. It felt like everything was going wrong. Jeez, it still feels that way. It got so bad that my husband and I made the choice to file bankruptcy. Some of our debt was discharged, but not all of it.
Last year I got pregnant and it was a miserable pregnancy. I suffered from hyperemesis and no matter what I just couldn’t feel good. I got fired from my job because I was advised to take a leave of absence during my pregnancy but then my doctor refused to fill out the paperwork properly. Because of my condition I couldn’t find another job that was going to pay well enough to be worth it. By worth it, I mean worth the cost to drive to and from, and worth the risk to mine and my baby’s health since this was during the pandemic. Also, due to being pregnant and not being able to work, I did not qualify for unemployment benefits. We have been struggling badly despite so recently filing bankruptcy.
My baby was then born ten weeks early and had to spend more than his first month of life in the NICU. That was a terrifying experience. He is home now though and is doing so amazing, you can’t even tell he was born early! Of course, my husband and I have returned to work. I got a new job working from home and have been working there for about two months now. We have been working on building a savings account for emergencies, but it seems like we constantly have something we need to spend money on.
I’m so exhausted. I just want to be comfortable for a little while. Please, if you are able to help I really appreciate anything! I will repay you however I can. Feel free to text me @ 740-563-2379 Thank you! ? paypal.me/karina12514

Hello,
So I'm new to this concept but I'll try anything at this point. I lost my job from covid and have yet to find a new one. Unemployment is on hold from some technical error and has been for over 6 weeks. Can not get in touch with anyone for help to solve ui. Bank account is in the negative. No funds coming in at all. Bills piling up. Single mom. Get the picture. I owe friends and family so that is not an option. I am trying everything I can think of. Any help would be a blessing beyond belief. I will pay it forward when I am back on my feet. I have pay pal. Oh yea, and got in a car accident yesterday...auto insurance was one day away from cancellation....wha!
paypal is http://www.paypal.me/rissiyoga
Sending love and prayers to all.
