Hi I am a disabled Mom of 2. I have Lupus which caused a blood clot in my lung. I live in hot climate area of California,and no longer have a car to get to my appointments or any other place including my church, called the Gathering in Oakley,CA. Taking public transportation is so hard for me with breathing problems, body pains from Lupus along with constant fatigue. I do take blood thinners and have a breathing machine called a CPAP to help me get enough air when I rest/sleep. I see a pulmonologists, rheumatologists,and a Hematologist in addition to my regular doctor. I have looked on craigslist and can get mechanically sound car for less that $4000.My post is not about greed in any way. Its about necessity. If you can help with my purchase or know someone who can please forward this to them .I need help to get a good vehicle .Please no scammers, praising God. I take that very seriously and that is just  worng so please do not. Thank you all for your emails. I appreciate your taking the time to so do and information that may be useful

I need help with finances. I have arthritis and lupus and am deaf and had to leave my job.I am a single mom supporting my daughter as well as my disabled mom and disabled sister and I get no child support. I have borrowed my friends and family to the max limits. I am behind on everything and desperately need money to pay my bills. Im 3 months behind on the house payment and have used every ounce of savings I had put away.  I have a paypal account (anoraonebay@yahoo.com ) donations can be sent to, anything will help and thanks in advance.

PS

I am in the process of trying to sell many items on ebay, so if you cant bring yourself to just make a donation, maybe I have something you want? Please check them out, every little dollar will help, heres the link http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZanora_wolfe

Also, if you make a donation and want to see the bill you helped pay, just let me know and I will gladly share that info with you.

Thank you so much for your consideration,

 

 

UPDATE: I was thinking last nite I needed to be proactive in my own life. I feel like things are just "dead in the water", so to speak. I contacted Voc Rehab, who got me my hearing aids, cuz they said they would help me learn ASL (American Sign Language) too and were supposed to let me know something "soon"...well its been months and months, so I contacted them via email (its Sunday) but have gone one step further and contacted my local community college and enrolled in the ASL training program and I have found I qualify for financial aid and can get my courses free just based on my lack of income, so thats good news. Not so good news is its mid-session now, the courses I need are not offered over summer and that means I have to wait until fall term to get this moving....soooo again, not one to be discouraged, I have emailed the director of the program and asked her if there is anyway I can come "sit in" on any classes or some way to get private instruction so that I can do this sooner...like yesterday. So I am encouraged about this one thing in my life....      I was also thinking that if I go back to school, I still have all these crazy insane amount of credit card bills, medical bills, loans, etc who are knocking down my door....and in fact trying to kick me out of my door, since the house payment is 3 months behind so I checked with welfare....UGH I dunno where all those rumors and myths about folks sitting around "getting rich" off welfare came from....it may happen somewhere, but it aint happening in Mississippi thats for dang sure. On the TANF program, a needy person gets $110 for the first person and then $36 for the 2nd person and $24 for each additional person after that. So for myself and my daughter, we'd get a whopping $146 a month to live on....Im  very very discouraged on this point, because I was hoping that I could go back to school and finish my degree (ASL interpreting) and that would allow me to get a good job. BUT while Im in school full time, I was thinking maybe TANF would be enough to just "get by" and keep the bill collectors at bay until I was able to pay them myself....so much for that plan. Now Im at a loss for my next step.  I have a partial plan for school, but it does not help me keep myself out of jail for defaulting on these loans and it does not keep my utilities on or the house from being reposessed....

Any ideas, help, suggestions, loans, donations, thoughts & prayers, anything is appreciated

I am a 41 year old Caucasian male living in Nevada.  I have been married to the sweetest woman, I personally have ever met, for 8 1/2 years now.  We have been together 10 years.  The cause of her not being able to conceive at this point in her life, she is only 35, is mostly due to her Systemic Lupus.  The fertility doctor says it is due to what she refers to, "Killer Cells"  These killer cells seem to automatically abort the fertilized Egg as soon as it implants in the uteran wall.  There are a couple of things that can be done to allow us to conceive, but as with anything, it costs money.  When we first went to our doctor she told us the prices start at 17K and go up.  We have now been offered an oppurtunity to have the procedure done for around $8,000.  This is a fertilization study sponsored through a pre-natal vitamin company.  I am not sure why they are not payiong for the entire thing, but they aren't.  I grew up in and out of hospitals myself.  I have gone through 20 operations and nearly half of my life in an out of hospitals.  I am now healthy enough to have children adn my wife is unable to conceive. 
Assistance for Invitro Fertilization

Please,

Anyone that can assist would be a godsend.  My wife and I have been married for about 8 1/2 years now and together for a total of 10 years without 1 pregnancy.  My wife and I have an oppurtunity to have Invitro Fertilization performed for only $8,000 through a vitamin study.  Normally it is a nearly $20,000 procedure.  I am in need of nearly all the money at this point.  We only have until near the end of April 2007 to come up with at least $6,400 of the total.  The money is tight since my wife also suffers from Systemic Lupus and is unable to keep full time employment.  This is probably the main cause of us not getting pregnant by this point in our marriage, the SLE.  If there is anyone out there that can or is willing to assist in anyway please contact us as soon as you are able to do so.

With Sincerest and humble Thanks

Looking for angels to help 2 kids (one autistic) for xmas

Hello.

I am looking for some aid with Christmas for my 2 great kids for christmas. I unfortunately have a degenerative disease and am very ill. My husband is in law enforcement and works very hard. However our income is low because I am in and out of hospitals constantly. Normally it is our family who are donating and helping often, but my illness is worse and that is putting stress on our finances.

I am hoping someone might find it in their hearts to help out my 2 children for xmas. I am not expecting nor asking for anything outrageous. Greedy we are not. Just some things for under the tree so the tree is not bare. I have a daughter, who is a high honors student that is 16, and a son who is 12 and has Autism and Adhd. I am proud of both, they brought home great report cards. My son , even though having the mentality of an 8 year old, is in an age appropriate grade (6) and is in mainstream classes and works hard and is passing with good grades!

I just would like to take the attention away from my illness and upcoming surgeries away from my children's minds for the holidays, and let them have some joy.

If you would like some more information, you may email crystaltarot@gmail.com. I check email often as I am homebound.

I dont know if things like this work but I am out of hope from any other source. I am a 46 year old mother of 3. Me and mt husband have both worked since we were 16. In March of 2007

he was diagnosed with Degenrative disk disease,spondylosis and spurs on L 3,4,and 5. He applied for SS and was turned down so we did as everyone else has  and got a lawyer. It is a year later  and still nothing I am getting so depressed. He can not even sit for more than 10 minutes without hurting really bad. My problem is I only bring home 247.00 a week.  My house pymt. is 600 month( we have been renting to own with a balloon pymt. in june of 2008. I cant get anyone to finance my home so i will probably lose it. I tried Sallie mae.   FHA and HUD.) But in the meantime i cant make enough to pay this months pymt.My landlord gave me until tues. the 11th.I got an application to work a second job after i get off at my 1st one I know will be hard but I have too.We have borrowed from everyone but this time i cant get it  is there anyone out there that can help me. If so I will pay back  if and when he gets his ss.

I cant get foodstamps or assistance because they go by gross income before taxes   and they say i make too much, I am so scared I will lose my house  my family and everything i have this month i have held on as long as i can

Comment: I pray that someone drops...
Note: This aidpage was started as a comment on "30 YEAR OLD MOTHER OF FOUR SUFFERING WITH SARCOIDOSIS AND LUPUS"

I pray that someone drops by and blesses you. They are checking me for sarcodosis tomorrow due to outbreaks of the skin. I don't know if you did research but when they mentioned that to me I did right away, sometimes it can go away as suddenly as it appeared but other times it may effect other organs, and the skin. So I am believing for a miracle for you. Be blessed and get well soon!

I am a 43 year old mother of 3 and one grandchild.  I have been diagnosed with advanced systemic lupus and am so fatigued that I am unable to work much.  I am completely on commission and after raising my kids for 13 years alone, while maintaining a decent life for them, I am unable to take care of finances and am very scared.  I have one son that is going to be in college this fall and I cant even begin to think about how I am going to provide for his education.  I need help and I just pray someone will understand.  This is very embarrasing to post.

I am doing this for my mother she is 39 years old and has a issue that caused her to make all her teeth go bad and well she is very ashamed and has not smiled for me or my sister i wish i had my moms pretty smile back. She does not hang around with friends anymore nor does she talk loud enough for people to hear her, i guess she is just so ashamed and well she has gotten a apartment outside of our house and her and my dad are only friends i think its because she feels he can do better but i think if she gets her smile back then she will get her motivation back and well, we can have our mom back and to be honest i think she can pay if she finds a true dentis that will allow her to make payments so really i just want someone to give her the chance to make payments and in return get her smile and our family back.
