     Hello,   I thank you for reading about my situation. Thank you.

I need help paying my monthly bills

I am a widow with an 18 year old son who will be leaving next month for JOB CORP to study for his GED and the Welding program in upstate New York.  I recieve $626.00 amonth from SSI, $120.00 a month from Public Assistance and we get about $80.00 a month in Food Stamps.  My rent Is $1,175.00 a month and the Section 8 program sends my landlord $926.00 a month towards my rent. My monthly bills are more than I can afford to pay and I need help with paying my bills.  I am in the VESID program and hope to be able to go back to work in about a year.  In the meantime I can't afford to pay my bills.  I do not owe any money to any credit cards and such but just paying for rent, utilities, public transportation, food, and clothing is becoming impossible.  Please help me.

I am a 49 year old who is in need of money. My Husband is in prison and am the only paycheck in the home. I have a 21 year old daughter who is Bi-polar/learning disabled and is unable to hold a job do to her mental illness and disabilty. She is presently trying to obtain work through an agency that helps people with mental illness/physical disabilities,but they have so many cases it may take months for her to actually make money.

With out my husbands income I am $2,000. a month short for my bills. My house is being threatened with forclosure and I am behind on all my bills and cannot afford my daughters medication since most providers at the public clinic are no longer able to provide her medications,she becomes very suicidal and out of control without it . My car payment is two months behind and I am afraid to go to sleep at night because I am afraid they will try to take my car.

We are in desparate need of help any donation will do.  Now it is trying to decide pay bills, get gas to go to work or eat.
We have tapped out all of our retirement for legal bills. Please help!

I am so sorry your having it rough!! I too am at the end trying for help, My mom just passed away and she was half my income, and now i have no job .added bills cuz of the funeral, i cant even get my meds, i am bipolar/major depressive. i have search everyewhere for help, and thers always a catch in why they cant help me. seems as though they want you in the gutter before they will help. so there goes the theory of you gotta help yourself first, i ahve been trying but something you cant do alone. i am 800 away from ending a bankruptcy that i cant pay for so its gonna get dismissed. i cant get any loans becuz i have a bankruptcy. i sure hope someone comes to your rescue, i will pray ...

My doctor recently took me off from work due to uncotrolled bi-polor, and siatica(which is a very painfull nerve problen in my butt and down my legs)I've always been a hard worker and can't belive I am going to have to file for disablity, but I just can't work any more. It's November and Christmas is just around the corner. I am a single mother of 3 boys and they have always had good x-mas's. I just wondered does anyone know of any well off families or any other organizations that my be looking for a family to adopt for x-mas. This is really hard for me I've never had to ask for this much help and I,ve been on my own since I was16 yrs. old when they let me move out of my foster care home into my own apartment with my 1st boy and pregnant for my 2nd. But I did well and still graduated with my class and received a scholarship and went on to college. After a year or so it got too hard to take care of two boys work full time and try and go to college.  I'm hoping it will not take longer then a year to get my mental health and my pain under control.  But until then does anyone have any ideas for x-mas.  thanks mhimbr
