About stephanie551336

My name is stephanie. I'm sixteen years old and a sophmore in highschool. I'm writing to see if there really are people who care. My mother is 59 years old. She is a disabled coach,she taught many years inspiring many children to become well-rounded people. She has many health problems, and takes many medications. We live on about $800 per month for rent, electricity, medical co-pays, phone, and food. We have lived without a car for about six year hoping we would find a way to own a car again. We have paid friends for rides with money we dont have to waste. My mom elizabeth, has many doctor appointments and has no way to get to them. She is under enormous stress to make it through the months. She has no fun in her life which has lead to severe depression. I am trying my best to help her but I can't buy her a car. I am writing this plea for help to anyone who cares. I would epreciate any help you can offer. Thank you, stephanie.

Hi, I am a disabled mom of a 13 year old girl. I am leaving an extremely abusive relationship. I am relocating to the Clermont, Florida area. If you can help me in anyway to find housing for my daughter and myself. I have a very limited income, and could use all the information that I can get. I do need a first floor unit because of my disability. I was told they are not accepting any applications for section 8. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

UPDATE: I found an apartment, and am now making all of the necessary arrangements to move! The power of prayer is amazing!

Need prayers and a few Christmas gifts for our children

Hi everyone,

                       I'll make this simple. I am in need of prayers and a little help with Christmas gifts for my children. I am not asking for cash. I have F.M.S. and to many other things to mention; that has lead me to be disabled. My husband has recently been laid off. (but has applied for a new job) I receive a small disability check, and he is currently receiving unemployment. We are paying our bills (barely, God willing I guess) So that is a good thing. I honestly do not know how we do it. We have been through harder times than this, but it always seems to hit worse during the holidays.  I am asking for lots of prayers for my family. In hopes that my husband may get that new job, and that I can get some relief from the pain I go through on a daily basis.  We have four children. Three girls ages 2, 8, and 10 and a 13 yr. old son; who will turn 14 on Christmas day. (Best Christmas gift ever!) We are in need for a few gifts for our children. We do not buy lots of things for them at Christmas, but do like to give them enough gifts so that they feel recognized. We teach them the spirit of Christmas rather than "I want, I want, I want" We believe that Christmas should be year round and we try to practice that with them. If you can help us, I ask of one thing; please keep your Christmas Spirit year round. Doing this makes a better world for us to live in, and teaches future generations to do so also.

Thank you for reading

God Bless You and your family year round and Happy Holidays!

Just a little help is all I need

I am a single mom with 2 younger children. We lost are house. At this time we are staying in a 19' trailer parked on someones property but have to move it. I have always been employed but at this time I am waiting for  surgery. I have filed for disability but was denied and now have to appeal it. School is starting and I am looking for some assistance for school supplies, clothes and would like to be able to put my trailer in a permanent location in a trailer park in my area. Christmas is also just around the corner. (Just for the record, yes we are
receiving assistance with food, medical and a few bucks for gas and no the father has not been located for child support. Also I have given up on the credit card payments and don't spend my money for cable or even a phone at this point. My needs are stricly basic.) I am not able to work until I get back and foot surgery. I am not lazy, just down and out for a period of time! Of course I would be turning to my family but they aren't able to help nor are my good friends (if there are such a thing). It does feel awkward asking for help in such a manner but the feeling of not knowing what to do is much worse. Any donations could be made at paypal.com under my user
account name of mbs01@msn.com, as far as I know this is all you need. I have never used paypal before but this is what they said I need to do. If there is any problem you can email me at mbs01@msn.com. Please, please do not email me with a bunch of suggestions on what I need to do to better my life. Thank you.

Hi my name is Sally and I am a disabled mom of 3 and about to be a grandma.  I suffered major work injuries over the past 8 years and have not been able to provide the adequate life my children deserve.  Almost every other month we have shut off notices from the utilities and phone companies.  I have tried to cut all un-needed expenses but managing money is still hard when there is not enough coming in.  My daughter works over 40 hours a week and pics up every side job she can but she is pregnant and her and her husband are struggling with providing for themselves as well as helping me out with her younger sister.  I am new to this Aidpage and am not sure what to say or how to ask....but I am in need.  We could use anything from financial aid to meal tickets to baby supplies and furniture.   Thank you for reading and I hope someone out there can help our family.
