I’m a father of six wonderful children. Recently I have fallen on hard times. I hurt my back in the war, and when I came home they told me I couldn’t stay in because of my injuries. I had hoped they would re-train me, but because I can no longer fight I’m of no use to them. In addition, my youngest son was diagnosed with cancer and lost 85% of his liver. He’s getting better, but I continued to be emotionaly devistated for a while. During his illness and surgeries, and because of my deployments, I began to use alcohol to deal with the pain, both emotional and physical. I lost sight of what was important for a while. I got into some trouble and was reduced in rank, loosing $745.00 a month. Now they are trying to take away my disability benefits as well. I need to secure a cheaper mode of transportation before my vehicle gets repossessed. I have a VW bus I was restoring that would suffice, but I don’t have the means to fix it up now. If anybody out there could do anything to help at all, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Hello All,
     Goodness, I'm not sure where to start. I'm a soldier in the Army, a father of six, (four girls two boys), a husband of one and a servant to many. I have been deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq. While in Iraq I hurt my back. Nothing heroic, just over use. I'm a carpenter and mason, but can no longer work in this area because of my back problems. I was getting out on a medical discharge, but, (I'm ashamed to admit), got into a little bit of trouble. My son was diagnosed with cancer two years ago when he was two months old. He lost 85% of his liver, and had so many complications due to his surgeries I can barely retell because of the emotional pain. Well, I had a hard time dealing with it all and started using alcohol as a coping mechanism. He is getting better now, as am I, (though he still eats through a tube in his stomach). However, it took getting in trouble at work to get me to admit my problems. Because of that I was reduced in rank and am making $745 less now than I was last month. They may take away my disability benifits, but I'll cross that bridge later.
     I need to get rid of my suburban before I get into trouble for non-payment. I have an old V.W. bus I am restoring that will accommodate our needs, but no funds to fix it up.
    There is alot more that this puts us in need of. My oldest daughter needs new cloaths, they all need dental work, and I wish I could give them all just a few of their wants, but I'm strugleing just to fill their needs. I'm ashamed to do so, but it looks like I'll have to go on food stamps just to feed my family. Any help, even ten bucks for a little gas, would be gratefully received. Thank you

Hello.  I am new to this so I am not even sure if I am doing this properly but its worth a shot.  I am very stressed and I may vent so I apologize.

I am 25 years old and married to a soldier serving in Iraq. I have been very depressed and extremely stressed out since he left.  I have had to take on so much on top of worrying about him everyday.  My stress level has reached a new high.  I just have so much on my plate right now I just cannot handle it anymore.  We have so many bills to pay each month and it never seems like I can pay them all.  I was laid off from my job and I have been trying so hard to find a new one but it seems like there are none in my small town.  My credit as well as my husbands nearly perfect credit is now in the toilet because I would forget to pay a bill all together one month or I would forget to pay a bill and pay extra on another one to try to pay it off and then when that bill would arrive I wouldn't have the money to pay for it anymore.  The people at my husbands bank are not nice at all.  They would not let me change the address on his account even though I have full power of attorney on it, I was told  that they would not recognize it.  I went in this month to pay on his loan, they always have to look up the account for me and the teller was very rude and never mentioned to me that there was a problem with the account.  Now I did not receive the notice in the mail being they did not let me change my address and I received a call saying the account went negative on January 31 and they have been charging me 5 dollars a day ever since.  This was an error that never should have happened in the first place.  I changed a bill that was being taken out directly from that account to another one because it was easier for me to keep track of and I assumed it would stop that month but it did not.  If I was told about it I would have gladly taken care of it right away but I didn't have the chance.  I guess this is what is putting me over the edge right now.  I have more bills than I can keep track of right now.  I have way too much on my mind and I am so lost and have no idea what to do.  My husband and I were married at the court house before he left and are planning to have a wedding for our families this fall when he returns but now I am not sure if this can happen.  To top off the stress with the wedding planning the place where I bought my dress ordered it 4 sizes too big and did not order the wrap that came with it and is being very difficult with me.  I actually had to go to the Better Business Bureau about her and she continues to lie which is so frustrating.  I am just so overwhelmed right now.  I have no clue what to do anymore.  I want to find a consolidation loan but I have bad credit so I cannot get one.  Can anyone help me?  Point me in the direction of away I can get help with my financial trouble?  Is there some place that will give me a loan?  My husband will be home on leave sometime this spring for 2 weeks and I am so afraid we will have no money while he is here and I will have a break down.  If someone could help me out I would be so grateful.  You would save my sanity.  I really feel as though I am going to loose it soon.  I have so much going on on top of everything I have already wrote about.  Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. 

Hello my husband/hero Kelly is serving his 2nd tour in Iraq. Our 3 kids and I live in Germany, waiting for him to come home. He has been in the Army for over 5 years and is a very good soldier. Our sacrifices for our country are made with lots of pride. He loves Harley Davidsons and it has been his lifelong dream to build a custom one. There is no way for us to afford this on our own. I wanted to see if anyone wants to show support for a brave, deserving, dedicated soldier by donating money for parts or donating parts for him to build it. He is supposed to come home Oct/Nov 08. If you or anyone you know is interested in making someones dream come true, I have a ChipIn widget on my MySpace page that you can pay securely thru PayPal. You can find me on MySpace under Marie Beberniss. After clicking on the ChipIn button, you will need to copy and paste the URL into your browser. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for anything you can do!

I am a recently Honorable discharged united States Army Soldier that retired. A Iraqi Freedom Veteran. I just purchased a home and would like to pay the home off. I need some help doing this. I did save some money before I retired, all the money went into making this house into a home. The house was a rehab. At the time I purchased it, I was in dying need of a place to live once I was discharged. The house was still in needs of repairs, they just covered up the bad areas to make them look repaired. I spent every penny saved doing repairs. I am going through PTSD and not afraid to admit to it. I would be greatful if I could have my home paid off.  I loved and still love the military. If I could have stayed in, I would have. I have no regrets serving my country and would serve again, if there is a shortage of Soldiers,Sailors, Airmans and Marines to defend my country today.

I'm a 34yr old dad and Army National Guard Combat Medic that's going through a divorce and has fallen on some hard times.  I'm trying like hell to pay the legal fees associated with divorce, child support and still make ends meet when it comes time for paying utilities and rent.  The truth of the matter is that until the divorce is finished I just don't have enough to pay for living expenses.  I have no family to turn to and no credit options available to me due to the divorce.  I'm getting further and further behind on rent and soon utilities will be disconnected.  I'm hoping someone could offer me some help, advice or at the very least a prayer.  It would take me about $1800 to get caught back up which isn't a lot, but when your behind it's a matter of money or eviction.  The divorce will be done in July but by that time I'll be so far behind there will be no chance of catching up and will be out of a place to live.  I work full time for the government and have my own computer business which is not profitable at the present time. You can certainly look me up on my website to get a feel for who I am.  www.cybersouthern.com  If anyone can offer help or even offer a person to person loan I'd appreciate it.
