Biography
I'm a Single 48 year old Mom. I've been Single along time! My Parents are Deceased. My Siblings have pushed me out of the Family. They said because "I have TO Many Problems"! I do! I have Alot of Medical and Emotional Problems. Anyone that lived my Life would! They're afraid that I might ask them for Help! They all Own there own homes, have New vehicles and have the things that they want and need. I Don't! I've ALWAYS have been the Blacksheep of the Family. I took care of my Mom after my Dad died, so they could go on with their loves and not be bothered. And they told me that I was the only one without a life so it was up to me to take care of her. Which I am So GLAD that I Did! And they said that I could have a life after she was gone! I went into SEVERE DEPRESSION after I lost Mom! And my life has been on a downward fall ever since! Mom died in 1994. It has been me and my Daughter all alone. I haven't had anyone other then my Daughter in my life for over 10 years! My daughter is my Life. And I'm so Upset that I fail her over and over again! I try to give her what I can, But I want to give her So Much More! She has had A ROTTEN Life! Her Dad or his Family has Nothing to do with her. Like I said we only have each other!
My Purpose
I'm a single Mom. I'm on S.S. Disability. I recently tried to go back to work Part Time. Because it's hard to live on just alittle over $600 a month. I pay $400 for Rent alone. When I went back to work, my food stamps dropped to $10 a month! And they put me on a Spend down of over $500 amonth for my Medical card. I take 9 meds a day, I Really need the medical card. My Daughter had her medical card taken away completely because she turned 19, and doesn't have a baby or isn't expecting one! She could get on if she went out and had a baby! Or if she was being treated for STD's. She has ALOT of Medical needs. She is So in Debt due to Medical bills.
I lost my Part Time job, due to Medical Problems. I have So Many Medical problems fighting against me. I can't even work a Part Time job! I have Sciatica and Arthritis in my back and knees, just to name a couple. My daughter tried to work and lost her job as well, due to her Medical problems. Now, I don't know What we are going to do? I have no Family that I can turn to. We need so much. We are almost out of food, the bills are due! I keep getting Disconnection Notices. My car is falling apart! It's Real old and the brakes are going out, the motor has something wrong with it, the windshield is broken. My neighbors tree fell on my car, but his Insurance said that it "was an Act Of God" so they won't fix it. My neighbor said that the car was So old (1986) anyway that it's not worth fixing! It's All that I have! I'm Scared to drive it the way it is, but like I said, it's all I have! And it's a gas hog.
It seems that Everything I try FAILS! Every road is a DEAD END! All I want is to be Happy and comfortable. I Don't want to be rich, I'd feel uncomfortable if I was. But, I WOULD HELP Alot of people! I just want enough to be able to pay my Bills and Stop getting Disconnection Notices. And to be able to have a Dependable car. And to buy Food and things that we need. That would make me Happy. Right now I don't know what I'm going to do? My bills are Past Due and we are running out of everything.
Well, that's my story. I'm sorry that I said so much. Thank you for reading.

Not in the Dark!


Posted on Mon 29 Sep, 08:53 pm

Not in the Dark!Thank God, I got Help with my Elecrtic Bill at the Last Minute. I was really getting Scared. But, now I got my New electric Bill, which is for $118.99 and it's Due Today. I don't have it. I'll only be able to pay atmost $50 on it when I get my SS. check on the 3rd. The Gas Company called and told me that I was going to be getting a Disconnection notice from them also! I owe them alittle over $240.00. I'm going to try to pay them $50 also out of my check. I'm not going to have any money to live on for the month after I pay what I can on things.
 But, atleast I won't be paying my Bills in the Dark! LOL!  >>>

I hope you find the help that you need.  Now that you are level 2, you

I certainly know how it feels to lose one's mother!  My mother passed
away in 2006.  I think about her a lot and like you I took care of her
while the other siblings went and led their own lives.  I'm trying
desparetly to hold on to her house but right now I would just like to
have some food to eat!  Even though you may not see it God is Blessing
you!

Thank you Michelle. I still don't know much about this stuff. 
Michelle Feb 20, 2008 17:05:50
You must update your request to more than $1. You will only receive up
to the amount you request, so in this situation you will ONLY receive
a total of $1.

Hi Michelle, Thank you!
