We are a family of 5. We live in ny. We have 3 kids Mattesa age 16 I am very proud of her. She has giving up a lot of time with her friends. To help with her little brother and sister. She also helps me around the house. Andrew is 12 which he has proved doctors wrong He was born with club foot. He wore a cast for the first year of his life. At 1 he underwent a 6 hour surgery at walter reeds hospital in WA. The doctors said he would probably never be a fast runner or be able to play Football. His foot is one size smaller then his other foot and one inch shorter. But he is almost the fastest child in his class. And has been playing pop warner football for 6 years now. kira is 10. She is my little spit fire. At 4 she would sit there and hold this whole conversation with you like she was a grown up. She is very small she is a size seven but is going on 11 soon. But great things come in small packages'. My loving husband Stan who I adore has made a lot of sacrifices' being away from his family. He has been on 7 deployments since we got married. I love him and I am very proud of him. I am a very homey person. It is all about the family. I would go with out before my kids did. I am also the type of person that would give my only shirt to a person in need.
We are falling behind one everything. Went from a 2 income house hold to a one. It is so hard sometimes sitting down thinking about what we are going to pay for that month. We now owe almost 3 months of fuel which is 988. We need a new well drilled one that provides enough water for a family of 5. It is so hard being in this situation and not knowing what I am going to do. I lost my job after a car accident I was in. It is like the more we try the more we fall behind. Just want a better life for my 3 wonderful children. I put my documents under my pictures. I could not get them to load on my request.
Star And Stan's Request
Family of 5 Fallen on hard times
Description: We are a family of 5. We have 3 wonderful children. I lost my job after I was in a car accident and got a back injury. We are trying so bad to pull our selves out of this. But it seems the more we try the deeper in dept we get. My son Andrews birthday is may 7th and our money is so tight right now that We do not know what we are going to do. I have been in and out of the doctors. We owe over 900 on fuel oil and over 200 on electric. Sometimes I wish the doctors would just sign the paper saying I could go back to work. It is so hard not being able to help provide for my family. My husband is trying so hard and I am so proud of him all my medical bill are suppose to be paid by my car insurance company even though the accident was the other girls fault. NY state is a no fault on the injury part. The girl did get a ticket for following to close, But it seems that I am the one that lost more from this. So If you could find it in your hearts to help us.

Why? The potential long term impact..
I will not be able to return to work for
awhile. We have used all our savings sense I
lost my job. And we are now to the point where
we are behind on the bills. And we are not
sure what we are going to do at this point.
