Hello...

I am a mother of two, 2years old and 14months.  My 14 moth girl is under going genetic testing, orthopedic surgery and therapy.  Due to all of her many doctors appointments including those in california I had to stop working my full time job last November to keep up with all appointments.  My boyfriend and father to my two children has continued to worked a full time.  We were just able to make ends meet for the last few months, but this month we are now so far beneth water we can bearly breath.  We moved into the home we are in in August 2006 we have not been able to funish our home yet, we managed to purchase a couch, but no table to eat at, my boyfriend and I are sleeping on an air mattress that we have to re-air half way through the night because it doesn't hold air and my son sleeps on a mattress and my daughter sleeps in a playyard we found at a thrift store.  We don't have any family members that have extra money to help us out in our situation.  So I have been forced to turn to the kindness of strangers to help us out.  My boyfriend has too much pride to ask for help so I have left him in the dark about this and my asking strangers for help.  I'm not asking for a particular amount of money just what ever you can give.  If a dollar is all you can afford then please help us out it wold be greatly appreciated.  I know there are people out there who would like to help but are uncomfortable with sending money, if that is the case a gift card for Walmart would help out alot so we can get food and diapers for the kids.  Since this is the only place we can get food and things the children need all at the sametime.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for your help if you can, Melissa.
