Unexpected Illness
Expense
Description: As some of you know my hubby has been out of work since May 12. He is getting a very small
worker's comp check 2x a month, but that barely covers the bills. We are in need of help
with gas money for just one week, and for the tags for our van. We just can't make it
right now. It is $129 for gas for 1 week of physical therapy 3x a week and to go to the
knee specialist. The tags for the van are $78. If you Google Fairfield, IL to Mt. Vernon,
IL and then Fairfield, IL to Centralia, IL you can see the miles that we have to drive
every week. If you need proof of our tags I can scan the paper and just black out our DL
#'s and VIN #.
My progress: Not very much.

Description: Most of you might know that my husband fell at work and broke his right knee. Well we are
in need of a little help of gas money. I have to drive him round trip 82 miles 3 times a
week for physical therapy. Then every other week I drive him an additional 134 miles round
trip to the knee specialist, plus his 3 PT trips. You can Google it and see how far it is.
Just type in Fairfield IL to Mt. Vernon IL, then type Fairfield IL to Centralia IL. If at
all possible I would really appreciate help for 1 week of gas, $129 would do it. Thank you
for any help anyone might be able to give.

I need a little bit of help. My husband got hurt pretty bad at work.
Description: My husband was at work last night and he slipped in an oil spill. He twisted his right knee and heard a really loud pop. We went to the doctor today; they took some x-rays and said if nothing shows up on them he will have to have a MRI. They gave him a prescription for some pain and anti-inflammatory pills that we had to pay for up front. The pharmacy said when his worker's compensation kicks in we could get reimbursed. The doctor made him take off work for the rest of the week. We just need a little bit of help until the worker's comp kicks in. So if anyone could possibly help us at all it would really mean the whole world to us.Thank you to everyone for any help you might be able to give us:)****UPDATE**** He is now having to go 127 miles to see a knee specialist. They are talking about 6-9 months of therapy and possible surgery. Just wanted to keep you all updated:) Yes we are getting a lawyer!!!
Many hugs to all,
Becky & Robert Patterson & family

Donations for my team in the Susan G. Komen walk for the cure in St. Louis, MO
on June 21.
Description: Hello I am trying to raise money for the breast cancer walk in St. Louis on June 21.We have a team set up this year and every $1 raised goes to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to help in finding a cure. My best friend has breast cancer and so does her sister. She lost her mother to this. She also lost her sister 2 years ago 1 week before the walk. This is some thing very important to me so every $1 helps. My paypal account is not verified so I will have to request a check from them. Also wanted to add that I am making a shirt for the walk if you would like your name or in memory of someone on it just send me a message and I will be more than happy to put it on:) Thanks to everyone in advance:)
Many hugs to all,

I really need help with a bill please.
Description: Hello all. I am in need of some help with the rest of my power bill. It is electric, gas, water, sewer and trash all in one bill. My husband just got laid off last week and we used his last paycheck to pay on this bill. It was $498.61 and it is now $245. Please if anyone can find it in your heart to help us it would be greatly appreciated. We have 3 kids and can't go without our utilities. I have been to the churches, DHS, and anywhere else you can think of. They all say the same thing... they are out of money. I tried to set up a payment plan with our city hall but they can't do that either. I want to say thank you to everyone in advance for any and all help I might recieve. Thank you very much. I uploaded a copy of the bill under the files section if anyone wants to see it.
Hugs to all,

I need help to fix a bad thing and save my daughter.
Description: Ok here is the story...I was married to a very abusive drunk. I was also addicted to meth. I have been clean for 6 years and I can honestly say I will not do it again!! I need help with paying off some bad checks/warrants. Yes, I wrote some of them for meth, but some of them were for food and gas on the night I left my ex. I need to go to Texas and pay these off so I can take him back to court. My kids go down there every summer for 45 days. Well last year when they came home my daughter told me she was molested by her half brother who lives there. I have been in contact with child protective services and the police here and in TX. The only way for me to stop them from going back is to take him back to court. But that is where my warrants are. So please if you could find it in your heart to help me then I thank you from the bottom of mine. All I want to do is protect my children. Please feel free to email me if you want more info on this because there is A LOT more and I am out of room..
