Hi everyone...I am new to this and I have no idea where to start in telling you my worse night mares have come true and I'm only 30 years old and feel like my life as I use to know it is over...

I don't know where it is nor do I have the faith I use to in me for the man upstairs anymore...I feel alone so alone in my sorrow I don't know what else to do....It's as if I am in a crowded room yelling ontop of lungs and no one is even hearing or seeing me there...

Well I will best try to sum up my history and how I came to this HUGE mess....It's so hurtful it's hard not to cry in tell everyone my story...Today was the day I saw "the sign" a sign I thought would never happen because I was hoping that my Fiance and I will have made it through to the other end...After all we made it 2 years and struggled but our time is up unless there are miracles out there...

It will be 4 years that I have been handycapped because of an unfortunate slip and fall at work...I just recently found out I have permanent damage to my ankle and I will be getting worse...I was hoping my settlement would of already happen so I could of saved it...I really wanted to saved it...I have envisioned raising each child one by one in there...I have envisioned seeing them take their first steps in the backyard trying to hold on to our golden retriever...We even had the dogs named picked out her name would of been Goldy...It's so hard to tell this true life experience...It's hard because I come from a family who are very unsupportive and only look out for their own interests...I had to break my ankle to see everyones true colors...I am worthless in helping them anymore and I have been forgotten...Pushed aside as if Im a stranger because of my inabilities to be the person I once was....

My poor fiance a little over a year ago lost his father to a fatal car accident where his father was a perfectly healthy man....There was nothing his father couldn't do...He was a very honest man and a very hard worker...Everything this man touched he turned to gold...He was always their for his family in every aspect you can imagine...I wish I knew his father more but the memories the little they are still remain in my heart...He is my Father-in-law in my eyes regardless if we are not married yet and he will always be even in death...His mother is very distraught one day here the next day somewhere else...She can't think or sleep without tears in her eyes...She still is waiting for him to come through the front doors and tell her there was a problem and that's why he had to leave and everything is ok that he is here now ...My Mother-in-law can't snap out of denial that that day is never coming...Their father was the bread giver in their house now that he is gone everything seems hopeless....My Fiance and his younger brother struggling to keep their parents house afloat...

My Fiance had a good job working in the school system as a teacher but with the "No Child Left Behind Act" it was by law he had to go back to college for extra credits and has recently finished his schooling once again and is desperately searching for a job locally to be by his family and me...He is working nights trying to make ends meet...I wish I could help I can't sleep at night I live in a house where I'm not wanted by my own family but have no choice but to do so...

AND all this is because I wish I can save our house that his father and mother (not my side of the family at all) help us buy...His younger brother has to come off the deed to go on to their parents home which leaves us no choice but to sell our house and our dreams in it...My Fiance is this close [  ] in finding a job...Another problem is that he has to be employed for at least a year from what the morgage companies have told us for him to be on the deed to the house...I can't believe it has come to this....I can't believe this is happening to us...When I saw the sign "FOR SALE" for the first time today on our beautiful green lawn I couldn't hardly contain myself...I felt my heart came out of my chest and into my throat...I could not speak...I was dying from within...Then after who knows how long I thought, "All the sweat and hardwork what was it for?"

My family has disregard my exsistance BUT wants me to live at home because I'm not married yet so "People" won't talk in our immediate circle...I don't have the money to even move out on my own with my Fiance...I wish I could and stay far far away from these blood sucking people...They have me here for show I wish I could go out and work and help in someway...My family does not want me to be with anyone because they are under the impression I will become rich and want to convince me to give it to all of them at the end inreturn in so called "caring for me"...Its a long story BUT true I heard it with my own two ears one night when they thought I wasn't home they slipped BIG TIME...It's so hard to imagine the people who raised you would try to destroy you...I have heard of animals turning on their own young but this is rediculous in todays society!

It seems impossible that we can get ourselves out of this mess...I don't know what to do....It's not like he would make any real money in selling this house....He has to so we won't get into forclosure...Does anyone have any solutions??????????? I desperately need some help and some real good honest advice....I just want to save this amazing house before we lose it....I know if we can do that hopefully everything else will fall into place...The house is my main concern that is our future and our life...HELP ME PLEASE...

P.S. There are more things I couldn't say on here because I can't bring myself to finish this all today...I can't see my computer monitor from all the tears in eyes that are flowing...Please excuse me if I have mispelled any words...It's hard to think straight after all this...I have no idea how aidpage really works in contacting others...If it's not too much of a hassle can someone tell me how? If anyone wants to talk about anything atleast to get my mind off of these unfortunate events I am here...It can be about anything you would like...Maybe we can help with each others problems...It would be nice to know there are some good people out in the world today...

Thank you for your time and patience in reading my miserable life...I greatly appreciate it with all my heart atleast what is left of it....

  I am a single parent of 2 kids and have a husband who left me after 14 years of marriage. I was In a very verbally and physically abusive relationship. I am working 2 jobs, however my daughter was born premature at 2 lbs and I have had many medical bills. Also I have been in the hospital for heart problems related to stress. I work alot and have to pay for baby sitters. I want to spend more time with  my kids and have a better quality of life to.I am looking for help for my kids In any way. I need to have help looking for financial assistance. I make to much for public aid, but I still need help with all the bills.

Hello, like so many I am hear asking for assistance for the holidays.  I am a single mom with two beautiful boys ages 12 and 6.  Due to cut backs at the place of employment my hours are now at a part time basis.  I am now in a situation where I have fallen in arears on my monthly bills and am just scraping enough for food which leaves nothing for the holidays. My childrens father is an absent parent and has not given any assistance toward their upbringing in several years.  I never expected this to happen, no one ever does. I am very embarassed having to ask for help but I do not know where else to turn.  If there is any assistance out there I would be in the greatest of appreciation.  I recently had to speak with my oldest about our situation.  His response was the act of unconditional love, one that showed me that I have done right in raising my children to understands the true meaning of christmas,  my oldest he has even given me all of his savings ($32) so that we can get his little brother something from Santa. I am not asking for anything for myself.  I am just looking for maybe a gift or two to be able to place under the tree that way both of my boys can have a joyous holiday season.

Thank you and god bless,

Kim

Hello this is my story i am a 33 year old Native American Single mother of five children (4 boys & 1 girl ) i left my Resevation on January 3,2005 and traveled to Bismarck North Dakota to Attend School At United Tribes Technical College. Their my vocation was Early Childhood Education. While i was at school i struggled trying to run a household of 4 young boys then i got pregnant with my youngest daughter in May of 2006. i was struggling with school also, but my instructors all knew my situation so they all worked with me thru college there were some days when i had no food to feed my children  or no pampers. i met a lady from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe who was going school and was in the same vocation i was in, we became good friends she would always check up on me and my children or if i needed anything she would always be there for me. we helped each other get thru college. i had funding through my Tribe it was a Program called Employment Assistance they would pay stipends every two weeks to us for other needs. my cousin told me about Higher Ed so we both signed up for Higher Ed then we find that we can't be on 2 programs at the same time. So then the Employment Assistance Denied me further Assistance and informed me that i owed them for the Semester that they funded me. so i owe a $2,670.00 dollars to my tribe and i owe a child care bill at UTTC which is $700.00 or something but i finished school but i finished college and now i have this huge bill to pay off in order to receive my A.A degree and my official transcripts from the College. i came back to my Reservation to find a job and to give back to my community. But when i got back home it took a long time to find a home for me and my children,my boyfriend Byron managed to find us a 2 bedroom home which is about 40 miles away from my work. we have to travel every single day to town,i have to be at work by 7:30 A.M  we are living pay check to paycheck i am not making the right pay that i should be without proof of my Transcripts and Diploma. so that is why i am asking for help to pay off my Bill at school so i can further my Education at Uttc for my 4 year Degree in Elementary Education. I am a single Mother just trying to give my 5 little presious angels a better life than i had.               

Please help me. I am a single mom of 2 wonderful boys. I recently kicked my abusive husband out of my home. I can't work because my kids aren't in daycare yet. I go to school fulltime online at my local community college for computer networking and securities but am only in my freshman year. My car just died and I have no money to have it repaired but it is so old that it would be cheaper for me to just get a new bomb for a couple of months to drive around. I have applied for assistance but what little I get every month from my sons's deadbeat father is too much for the state to help me. I was working before but lost my job because I have no one to watch my kids now. Their father is doing his best to get me kicked out of school. I don't know what to do and because I was isolated from people and my family for the past 8 years I have no family to help and no friends either. I am doing everything I can to get my kids into daycare but these things take time and money. I just need a small miracle right now until things start to get better for me. I plan on going to work as soon as i can but like i said....it is going to take time.   I am not one of these people who isn't doing anything asking for handouts....I am trying my best and making the most of what I have and what I can get but sometimes, it doesn't work out that way.  Please someone help me.

well so here it is......I have been searching for several years now for a company that would be willing to help me out in some way with cheap or free dental work.  I am 26 years old and work for a non-profit youth ministry organization and as you can imagine working in the ministry does not bring in very much money at all.  I grew up in a large family with very low income and so unfortunately there wasn't any way to really go to the dentist.  I actually have never been to the dentist before in my life.

 Born with a calcium deficency, my teeth rotted out at an early age and slowly started to deterirate over the years.  I ended going to a free clinic and they pulled out all of the bad teeth leaving me 4 on top and 5 on the bottom.  I now only have 2 on top and 5 on the bottom and they are slowly fading as well. 

I am honestly not sure if anyone is going to read this but I thought it was worth it to try.  If you have any information of a company that would be willing to help me in anyway please email me and I will send pictures and give more information.  I am on the verge of giving up right now as I feel that I have exhausted my options.

My email address is naclingman@liberty.edu

Thank you for your time
