in response to The Real Cie...I don't know what to say, I have bipolar, Fibro,ADD PTSD,. I don't work lost my job, waiting for disibality, but I wont be to live on that. I havent eaten in a few days. But there is no help for me, and this is bull. We have TV minister living in million dollar home, they are worth billions. They live tax free, almost everything they buy is tax free. Company come to the US they are tax free for several years. who made these stupid tax laws?
Hey. That is such a cute dog in your profile picture. I love small dogs. I wish I could have pets were I live. They said i could have fish but who wants a fish. You cant pet it or walk it or play with it.
There are a lot of people here who need help so I'm not terribly hopeful, but here goes. I am mentally ill. I have type II bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder which partially manifests as hoarding disorder. I have hoarded objects, not animals. I have 5 cats, which some may think is "a lot of cats" but it does not qualify as animal hoarding. I am working on the hoarding problem but it is an uphill battle. Sometimes I do better than others.
In spite of my mental illness, I do work. I make well above minimum wage, as I make $17 an hour. I work 32 hours a week. This is about all I can do without it making me extremely depressed or physically sick. I also have fibromyalgia and sciatica as well as asthma and mild hypertension.
I fall into a marginalized category. Because I make the salary I do, I do not qualify for food stamps. However, once taxes and insurance are taken out of my pay, I only take home about $1400 a month. I am in an upside down mortgage in a mobile home and my credit is damaged. Thus refinancing seems to be out of the question--no-one will touch me. Between mortgage and lot rent, I pay $1100 a month.
My mother has helped me out for several years with utility bills. I do not eat much except at work. I get things like cheese whiz and crackers and canned fruit juice or jello that does not need refrigeration when I am at home as I do not have a working refrigerator.
Last year my mobile home incurred very bad damage when the water heater started leaking and I didn't know it until my son realized that the carpet in the hall was wet. The walls and floors of 3 rooms had to be removed. Overall the repairs cost over $20,000. My mother helped out with this. But she is stuck with my late father's medical bills and really can't help any more. I am ashamed to ask her for help anyway.
I do not have working plumbing except in the bathroom sink. Fortunately I am able to shower and wash my clothes at work. I do not have much in the way of furniture but I'm not so worried about that.
I still owe $43,000 on this horrible 15% mortgage, which I have had for 10 years. The original mortgage was $45,000. You can see that I am mostly paying interest. I am in a no-win situation.
I just got through paying off a bunch of payday loans that I had to take out when I was doing a month unpaid internship to obtain my LPN license last April. I also maxed out my credit cards. I still owe about $1200 in credit card bills. This destroyed my credit, which I had worked very hard to build back up to a passable score.
I have medical issues which I have not been able to afford to take care of and I have not been to a dentist in 6 years.
I feel very depressed most of the time and think about suicide every day. I am not a lazy person but I have had a lot of barriers to my success in my life.
It seems that if I had nothing at all there would be some resources from me. But since I am working and have this mobile home I fall into the Twilight Zone where no-one can or will help me.
Thanks for reading.

Project summary/abstract.
The need of Indian herbals (medicinal plants) having highest value in worldwide and in the medical field which are supportive for research and cure of several unknown diseases. But they are not easily available and can be found in forests and mountains, farmers and agriculturists arte not cultivating them in their lands. To disseminate and demonstrate the method of cultivation of these medicinal plants which can also provide additional income to agricultural women laborers ,small farmers and dry landholders and will lead to formation of medicinal plants’(Herbal Garden), this project is suggested for environmental bidoological diversioty and protection with the participation and involvement of agricultural women labourers, small farmers and dryland holders. Major, unintended changes are occurring in the atmosphere, in soils, waters, plants and animals due to major usage of chemical fertilizers and pesticides for cultivation and irrigation in lands. Hence organic farming and sustainable agriculture should be established in the project area. It is most essential to grow more trees and plants in the project area with highest possible percentage so that human, animal, birds and reptiles could live supportively each other. Totally agro –forestry system should be established in the project area which could pave way for good food production and provide better living condition to the people. More over equilibrium and ecological balance of the earth could be maintained. Hence, I request your goodself to support us by contribution or donation or project for this project

Hello bnw614,
My name is Sara Richardson, and I do not know if we live to far away or not for you to be able to consider helping my family this year. We live in Bradford Ohio, on the other side of Troy. I think it is absolutely wonderful of you to help people like this for the holidays, and even though we may not be the ones your able to help, I pray that you are as Blessed always. Anyhow, I don't know if you want to know about us, but, I have 4 amazing children, Jonathan, 10, Jarrett, 9, Maralee, 8, and Kaylee " Buttons" is 6. I was a single mom for many years after leaving their abusive father when he broke my jaw. We lost everything we had, and it has taken years for us to get back on our feet. We now have a wonderful loving warm home. Money is still tight, but I am in school full time, and I am in love with a wonderful man who I will have been with 3 years soon. He helps support us, and life is wonderful, i have few complaints. This holiday season was going to be the first ever that I was able to provide a Christmas for my family. I personally have no other relatives besides my children, and have had no support until I met David. We had managed to save up a few hundred dollars for Christmas, until I wrecked my only form of transportation, putting us $800. in the hole. Now I find myself stressing about a van that doesnt run correctly with no speedometer and no gas gauge, not sure if we will have much food, or any other non food essential items like toilet paper and shampoo, and even though I am putting up the decorations we have, I worry our electricity may get shut off. Its stressful, but I am so thankful that my children are excited for Christmas, and that they know the meanings of it, and are not worried about not receiving gifts. I am blessed, and I pray your family is as blessed as mine.
I have been an advocate for the homeless for many years, I have worked with ex-offenders (women), and women trying to make transitions to jump start their careers. I believe that education is key factor that will help many get a fresh start in life.
We are looking for a needy family to help have a nice Christmas.
This is something our family does every year so we joined this site after running across it.
Please let us know your situation?
How many kids and age ?
What they are asking for? Please do not ask for Xboxs, computers, things of that nature.
This is something myself and my partner with my sister and brother inlaw and 2 nieces have done together for 3 years.
We get great enjoyment in making sure one family has a nice Christmas as we do as a Family.
thanks for your inspiration and information. If you really prayed for me, IT WORKED!!! I was hired at a temp agency and although it's not permanent, I have been able to put food on our table, catch up on some bills and build relationship with the employers so hopefully they will keep me on for good. Thanks for your encouragement and I will remember to pray for you as well.
Help! I need help on bills. I've been disabled for some time now (I had a stroke). I have a couple of bills that have gone into collections, and I was talking to a collector recently who mentioned these resources. If it's possible I would like to get these bills paid off. There are a couple that are $2000 and not being able to work to pay these off has become a problem. I don't make enough with disability to make payment arrangements in order to pay these off. I'm considered permanently disabled. I want to work, but because of the tremor I have in my left hand and very limited use of it, I'm not able.
in response to moms123...I cannot understand...when I go to my mail...I have i private message...I cannot find it+ I go through all the pages and read them....no replies (ty anyways) How am I supposed to find something, that I have already read...ovr and ovr....God Bless All moms
I am so sick of how we, as poor people are neglected. Our economy and our gov. has really took it's toll on us. Food id too high, taxes are too high, living each and every day in fear. It's getting to where, I (cannot excuse me for being truthful) that I cannot even afford the store brand toilet paper to wipw my hindend on. I fell in Wal-mart last Tuesday, in some white shampoo, which someone had been playing around......on beige tile. I have bruises and sore muscles. I have never fallen before in a store. They said wal-mart would be in touch with me within 24 to 48 hours. I was woozy and my son helped me out with what I could afford to get. I tried to still be friendly. I have been to the dr. and he only paid attention to the bruises, but not my pulled muscles. Does anyonw have any advice? I hit hard on the tile, and I'm sure it was on camera. I am 60 yrs old with health issues. If I had been someone of importance to the city, then I am sure I would have gotten some attention. They can take my last dime...but not be responsible for their negligance! It's just not fair. I still hurt to get up and down, and my muscles are sooo sore in shoulders, neck and hip. moms
in response to WishfulThinking...Yes, I see that. Wasn't even sure I should post, so many needs greater than mine. Decided to anyway, we all need to talk and networking can always help people find things they did not know about. Have a great night.
in response to WishfulThinking...i am in need of help, but there are times when i like helping people. I need help with my car getting fixed.So i can get a job in the medcial field. I am a Certified Medical Assistant
in response to moms...I meant to say in my lasr post, that my son's friends confided in me and I talked with them and tried to help. They all called me moms.

i am owning diffrent bank more than 28.000euro,of which my car is sized and my family scattered from me,i can not even take care of them any longer.i need to pay the bank and get better things doing to take good care of the family,for now i am passing a stronger pain,that is why i need a help.for me any thing one can offer me is a help,if big or small,i will be happy.
in response to moms...I see your heart. God clearly see's your heart.
the heart of our Lord is working in you.
For in our flesh dwells no good thing. So Therefor the compassion for other's is being manifested to you, and through you for other's. That is pleasing to the Lord. I'm blessed by your heart friend. As long as your heart remains on kingdom.
ALL THESE THING'S WILL BE GIVEN YOU. CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON JESUS, TAKING HEED OF GODS VOICE TO DO HIS WILL, AND BLESSING'S WILL CHASE YOU DOWN THE STREET, AND OVERTAKE YOU. = )
Testing can be painful at time's, but O the blessing's that follow.
Shalom, love, and blessing's friend.
in response to Need_yeshua...Probably, when I am so isolated,,I get very anxious. I really do want my family to be happy. I really do need a way to go to the dr. and be in some group meetings, where I can meet some nice friends. I want to go back to the little church, I used to go to. But, I live in the country and way to far to walk. I do love Jesus, and my heart aches for all who are troubled, sick, and in need. I don't want to focus on myself, yet maybe I focus too much on people around me, or neighbors. I'ts so easy to fall into that position, when hurt and a feeling of being a failure! But, you are right. I have never had much confidence in myself. Which led me to be a follower, and not a leader. Sometimes being hurt so much and put down, beat down, can turn to anger and depression. But, I love Jesus and I know he dwells in my heart and he will never leave me. If Jesus had not been with me , I would not be alive today. He has helped me through so much more than I deserve. I need him everyday and night. I pray Dear Lord, help us all,,,if it be thy will. Bless You Mike
in response to moms...you just need to refocus your faith onto God, and live the life he want's you to live.
Focus on Jesus. Focus on HIM. Read the word, and do the word.
You need to remove your eyes from the castle that is upon the sand. For that sand is sinking sand.
Your eye's need to stay, in faith, in trust, and in hope in Jesus.
For HIS castle is built upon the rock.
Jesus is that rock, and that rock is unshakable.
I relate allot to what you go through, and slowly God is changing thing's for the better.
He is working character, and testing our faith.
Do what you can do, and allow God to do what you can't.
He has always been faithful in my life, and the best is yet to come.
Shalom, love, and blessing's.
Mike
in response to Need_yeshua...it's been awhile since, I have been on the website. I really did not know what to say to anyone. Most of all, seems like a lot of us have some of the same problems. Sometimes, I also feel helpless and have lost interest in almost everything. Seems as though, everyday is a struggle or fearing something else bad will happen. I have my faith in a higher power. But still, my heart feels empty. But I still hurt and love the good and needy people. I stay depressed 95% of the time and sleep too much. I worked and jumped through the hoops of society and was doing ok. Many years ago, seems like my life was falling apart piece by piece(and it was)..Years had taken its toll on me and my spirit. It's like watching a child taking hours to build the perfect sand castle on the beach. Proud of his hard artistic work, then watching it all crumble down around him, as people watched...then walk away. I try to think of something interesting to do, but I have no car to go anywhere and church,. I think that everyday that has come and gone, is time I have lost of making something good happen. I just wonder.....if my sandcastle will crumble down around me again. Can't take anymore. My home is in ned of some serious repairs....even the kitchen floor is falling through on one side, I'll probably not live long enough to pay it off....since I am disabled from clinical depression. I receive 110.00 in ssi and 589 in social security. Not much left after utilities and house payment. But I am thankful for what I do have. Love is the greatest gift of all. Thank you Yeshua for your wonderful inspirations.
I feel so alone and suffer from very bad depression. I know, there are lots of people who need help, besides me. I have gone through some horrible abuse. as a young mother. My daughter died at 4 yrs old and I was beaten and made to go back to work instantly. I want into shock, but by the grace of God I managed to get away from my ex. I raised my 2 sons alone and was happy for awhile. Also, I went to a technical college on a pell grant and received a degree. My life improved for awhile until my job shut down. I began getting sicker and more depressed. The abuse from my ex has taken it's toll on my 2 sons and I. One is mentally challenged, and my youngest is looking for work. He is a hard worker and is very hyper. He had to take ritalin in elementary school. I can feel his pain and depression as, sometimes he tries to drink his problems away. I feel like I have really let my family down, because I did the same thing, after my job closed . But I have been sober for many years. Anxiety attacks and high blood pressure, plus clinical depression for me is horrible. We're on a FIXED income...but still can't make it . Our home is going down hill fast. No water in kitchen...kitchen floor is falling through. Neither of my 2 sons know anything about carpentry. Nor, can we afford to pay anyone to fix it. But I thank God for his blessings. I love to go to my church. There is where we need to be. I can't go, because it's a small church uptown and I live in the country. I would like to get a car of anykind. To go to dr appointments and pay what I can on utilities. Also, to pick up medicine and visit the sick and poor like me.....I love trying to help others. I lost my baby sister at age 16 in a car accident. My best friend my mother 4 years ago. And my humble, beloved brother 2 yrs ago. It hurts so bad. I feel alone and scared for my family. Please pray for us and God Bless all of you. I need some friends.

I have been divorced since 1985. My ex was abusive physically and mentally. I had 3 children, 2 boys and a girl. My daughter died at age 4. I was forced to go to work all the time, even after 2 days of her death. He kept on abusing my children and I. I always wanted to take care, and I love my children more than my own life. I raised them alone, and went to college for 2 years. After 4 years, I finally found a good paying job. It shut down within 4 years. During that time, I bought a small home. We have lived there since 1992. I became disabled because of clinical depression and anxiety attacks. My oldest son was born with handicaps. He draws ssi. Since then, the house is in bad need of repairs. Water ran through wall behind the washer and dryer. Causing the floor to fall through in places and cracked walls. In which, insurance refused to pay for repairs and canceled my homeowners. Baseboard heat, we cannot use and now our water lines to the kitchen has quit working. My son's check was taked by social sec. last December, without notice to me. I got so far behind on house payments and my phone was turned off. My car blew up on Christmas day 2010. Foreclosure is being threatened and more. We get about 1200 per month. Rent is too high and I have 2 dogs. Cannot even get to my doctor appointments, or where I need to go. I am so depressed that, I'm fearful of opening my mail. I have extreme high blood pressure which I have meds for and a nervous condition. I feel so bad about myself,that I don't want to even get up in the morning. My credit has gone from fair to bad. I feel so alone. Never in my life, did I think I would feel so useless. Too old to try and work on a job. I get $100.10 ssi, so I get medicaid and medicare. $589.00 social sec. My sons draws $449 per month. I feel so old and helpless. But I am still hoping and praying God will make a way for my family and I, and people sick and in need. I thank God for I have a 9 yr old grand-daughter. She is beautiful and a straight A student. My youngest son, gives me problems and I worry about him. Since my daughter's death, and me having to defend them from my ex; I have been too overly protective. He's a good hard working, smart young man...but lost his job. Now he's drinks almost everyday. He has tried for 8 months to get work. I love my family with all my heart and want to see them happy. But right now, I am a very depressed woman. I'm not me anymore! Reply anyone. Thanks for reading. This is my dirst time on here. God Bless You. ps please excuse my punctuation: It's been a long time since tech college. ty

in response to CATLUV...Hi, Cat:)
Sorry for my slow-absent returns; my computer died and that puts a huge kink in my daily process trying to keep things together the best that I can. I found a good PC on ebay, so now I can send my late returns to you.
Yes, I do deal with MS alone. I have 3 adorable cats: Can-Can Canada, Keepurr,and Holiday, that share my tiny space in a one room cabin along the Rainyriver, here at International Falls, Minnesota. I moved to the Falls in 2008 on the hunch that I could spare myself a great amount of misery if I could be in a cooler environment longer in the year.
I actually closed my eyes, dropped my finger, and when I lifted my finger, there was International Falls, Minnesota. I have no family, no friends, no anything to be familiar with at the Falls other than my belief that it being on the border with Canada, I should find a longer-cooler environment.
International Falls turns out to be the coldest city in the nation, even colder than Alaska, which was a pleasant discovery I found out from the local peoples. My first winter,
the Falls broke the record to score a chilly minus-46 degrees below zero. WoW! I bundled everything I had to stay warm, went outside and took a walk & dance with my cane. It was thrilling for me to test my theory about my MS!
After 3 winters with the next one being 4 in October, my MS shows no signs in the sub-zero conditions which is the only relief I have in the year. It's an absolute blessing that I cherish everyday I look out my back window and see the beautiful Rainyriver and Canada on the other-side:)
Cat, I appreciate you very much for asking about my MS, it shows that you are a very caring person that relates to other people in very interesting ways. You've given my life a pure Blessing to know that someone cares and now you know that I care about you too:)
I bid you a beautiful day filled with unexpected treasures of warmth, splendor, and surprising best wishes from the people you meet along your day.
It's hard to find a stinkin gas voucher and/or a motel voucher, my partner and I and our small dog are homeless at this point and none of the shelters allow dogs or for us to be together, fortunately some good people who were are next door neighbors at the motel we were staying at, told us to come stay by them, we all live in a cramped room. I have tried every available resources center to get some sort of assistance, the problem is, they will help pay security deposit and rent if we have some income. I lost my job over 2 weeks ago, applied for unemployment and had the phone interview, waiting for the verdict, applied for food stamps, my partner has a disability, but refuses to go and get disability and it's made it very hard on us.
