Hiya all.

Well, how do I introduce myself?

First of, I'm nobody and everyone...meaning I do not have a familiare name or face, but I have lived for a few years now, and during I have battled most fancy twitches and turns life has to offer.
On the basis of that, I like to think of myself as one that might lend advices and support to others fighting the same battles I have fought (and won)!

Most important to remember for all, no matter what the struggle is about; there's almost always a solution out there.

Looking forward to getting to know new folks...  ;o)

I am a mother of a 2 year old son.  My husband and I try very hard to make a home for our family.  He lost his job the day after Christmas and has had trouble finding another one.  I have picked up some contract work, and am now working two contract jobs in addition to my full time job.  I was diagnosed 2 years go with multiple sclerosis, so the extra work is not an easy task.

Anyway, we got behind one month on our house payment and have been unable to catch up.  Our bank is demanding two months (the behind month plus this month) payment within 48 hours.  I don't have it and don't know what to do.

I am founder and President of Baby James Foundation for children of abuse and their non abusive families.  We are as well trying to pass a law there if you would please read Baby James Story and sign the law here.  Baby James is my stepson who was abused by his biomother that I am working on adopting.  If you would like assistance through the foundation you may also fill out an application which can as well be found on the above link.

I have 3 biological children; Nicholas 20, Megan 16, and a angel son (Justin) who would be 17.  Justin was stillborn at 8 1/2 months along.  I as well concider Baby James mine and he always will be.

I am married to my third husband, James' biofather who means the world to me. 

I am a survivor of sexual, physically and emotionally abused as a child.  I was then abused physically and emotionally with my 2nd husband. 

I enjoy writing poems and working on websites in my free time. I love all animals especially dogs though. 

two of my children came down with salminalla posioning one years ago through no fault of our own my step mother had my children taken and i now pay 1800 dollars month for child support. i am three weeks a way from getting them back. Not only do i pay that i have to keep up a four bedroom home for them,pay 40 dollars a week for testing and food in the house for them. my house payment is 2 months be behind and both of our cars broke down. My step mothers best friend works for the dcs and everytime we do everything they come up with something else for us to do which costs more money. we have been fighting for one year now and about to lose everything. they are our heart and soul they want to come home so bad but if we lose our home they will not let them. also we have to travel 40 miles one way to see them .my husband and i have been married for 10yrs and i have had the same job for 14 yrs and my husband has worked in a tire factory for several years. Now the goverment takes everything and we have to choose to pay water electric and food or the house payment and it should not be that way. we need help and this has destoryed our credit. please

I have accompanied people with mental disabilities in a residentail therapeutic community and also through community rehabilitaion services in the urban slums \rural areas of south India for over 30 years. I am a trained therapist \counselor also an artist\apainter.

I have founded a NGO for children with mental disabilities and presently working full time with over 100 children \families. www.awmd.org . As an Administrator\ Director \therapist \ Counselor I have gained alot of understanding and experiences , I have been previlaged to share my life with the people with disabilities and I have learnt a great deal from them.

Today I also long to serve senior citizens who are totally neglected in our fast growing society where family and values are breaking up. My dream is to provide a peacful atmosphere and a home for those homeless and abounded senior citizens, inorder to do that I would need funding to purchase a land \construction and a running cost. My hope is that there is someone out there who will come farward to help me reliaze my dream project.

I am a mother of 7 kids. I HAVE 2 SET OF TWINS THAT I LOVE AND THEY MAY GIVE ME A HARD TIME BUT I STILL LOVE THEM . 

I'm in pain physically and emotionally while I'm typing this so I'm hoping what I have to say comes out right. I'm going through a tremendous amount of issues right now and I really need some help but have the most trouble finding somewhere to turn. I have a rare pain syndrome that is not commonly heard of. It's called vulvodynia. It causes me excruciating  & debilitating pain. At one time I experienced it almost every second of every day for the last several years. There's no cure or even any sure way of knowing the exact cause....it makes you miserable and unsure of ur life from day to day. I also suffer from depression.

 The vulvodynia pain, I guess u could say is comparable to nerve damage pain (which is in fact what it seems to be in my case). I don't know if I'll ever be free of this situation again but for the time being the only thing most recently that has been helping me to function enough and not suffer this every single day as before is the Cymbalta medicine I've been taking. I also believe in holistic methods but nothing else so far helped relieve the extreme pain and I have a young child to care for. I have tried many many medications & have been & felt like somewhat of a guinea pig. This situation started for me around the age of 19 and I am now in my 30's (Off and on during that period of time). I cannot work because of these disabling situations and I receive SS disability once a month.

 I tried to fill my prescription for my medication and for reasons beyond my control (some error of some sort), my insurance that covers it was off and will take at least a month to be corrected. My medicine costs $163 that I don't have. Making matters worse, I am in a period in which the pain is at it's worse (which happens sometimes) and this is the worse time for me to be without my medicine. I can't find anyplace to get it free or get samples. I NEED HELP.

 I am behind in my rent $227. I have bills I am behind in that is $191. My glasses are old and broken (I'm very nearsighted and the type of glasses I get cost me $350-$400), My child's birthday is here, I have no money to give him anything right now and that in and of it self is so hard (he's a great kid and I love him dearly)and I have little money for the basics of food (which has just been getting more and more expensive). My medicaid was cut a long time ago because they sent the recert to the wrong address, I've tried to apply since then and all I get is the run around. Food stamps is the same thing. I'm just TIRED and I neeed HELP PLEASE SOMEBODY. If u hear me and u can, please help. I am humble and appreciative. Thank You

• this is all new to me i am just try this out and hope i learn some thing from this . the one thing i am try to always tell people is that god is good and god will always help us if we do right, we are not alway right but we fall down but we can always get back up so always belive that and life my be hard but one day it will get better . keep your head up always say thank you god he will make way!!!!!!!!! have a nice day

thank you so much.

I was a weapon Sergeant with 7th group until last year when I pulled out of combat due to a cheating wife who is involved with drugs and alcohol. In April of 07 I came home from Afghanistan because of my soon to be ex wife and her problems with the above mentioned. She was the sole care provider of our 2 small children. One 3 year old boy and One 7 year old girl. When I came home the courts let her keep the kids because at that point it was my word against hers and their wasn't any proof... Until the day of the overdose on cocain and sleeping pills. Not to mention the attempted suicide. I put in for an emergency custody order and have had my kids ever since. The only issue is that I live in an unfinished basement at my aunts house. I work tird shift and have to rely on my Aunt to watch the kids when I go to work all night. When I come home I have to take care of my kids. No time for sleep. My soon to be ex has us in so much debt that I cant get my kids and on back on our feet. I need a fresh start for my kids sake. We are $47k indebt with bill collectors calling everyday. My daughter was not adjusting to her new living arrangments and I was forced to send her to her grandmothers due to her doing bad in school and at the house. I don't know where else to turn and really hope someone out there can help me. I just want a new beginning for my kids. It crushes me everyday to hear them say they want their mommy and shes not there for them. I do not receive any type of child support and she never helps with them. Please help...
