Epilepsy awareness,
Struggling Artist, Empty Nester , Mental health advocate for you and me
I received an eviction Right before Christmas.Court is Jan 23rd I have exhausted all other options applying for help with state and local charities that are just to overwhelmed to meet the needs of everyone especially with the holidays. State rent assistance funding has also run dry and they stopped excepting applications in November
.I found sites when I literally thought my only option was to type in to Google how to beg for money .I still have not received even a dollar .I am panicking now . This is something I have tried very hard to prevent in my life I have raised three kids on my own and took pride in the fact that I did whatever it took working 2 jobs and going back to school often . I am going to humble myself and ask for help because I am in a situation that I am unable to control any longer .
Here is a little of how I have ended up here ...I had a catastrophic life event in early August that was the start of a snowball effect that I just can't seem to get ahead of.
Working for a local property management company as a field agent doing lease resigns , delivering letters , helping families find resources etc ...I was helping pick up maintenance calls on the weekend. Our in house maintenance was extremely busy and I decided to take a run on an easy maintenance call.
The client has an oxygen machine and she needed assistance flipping the breaker to restore power,
I had a green light at a major intersection and was almost across when a teen driver taking her dog to the vet and looking in the backseat ran a red light and hit me at a high rate of speed .
My car was totaled.
I sustained injury to my face , neck , arms and back .
When the air bag deployed I received chemical burns, bruising and my top teeth were broken .
To make matters worse after two weeks of physical therapy and several appointments my job of 7 years decided to restructure and I was emailed that my services would no longer be required.
I was a commission only employee and due to that am unable to receive unemployment. Left with no job no car and still facing a long road ahead,
including months of physical therapy and possible surgery. I began using my limited savings (previously used throughout COVID and trying to help my adult daughter who suffers with mental illness) I took out a few small loans thinking I would work things out and get back on my feet .I have had a job consistently since I moved out of home at 16 ...I was optimistic and doing my best to remain positive.
My job was the cosigner on my car an insurance payout covered the remaining balance on my auto loan with nothing left over
Additionally the situation is uncomfortable because my employer is also my landlord and I have relatives that work there
I was able to find a new job for much less pay and was borrowing a car but needed to return it .I was just looking to purchase a car when my new job had to downsize . New hires were the first to go.
I am still in physical therapy and need to find some sort of group or psychiatrist. I already suffer from PTSD, GAD .I have just applied for state medical insurance as my previous insurance was thru my job.
This has been extremely traumatic and don't know what else to do.
I have been left physically and mentally devastated.
I am in debt ,without a car, facing uncertainty with no way to pay for dental to repair my broken top dentures which are currently super glued together,keep my utilities onw hich are all going to be disconnected in a couple of weeks I have already gotten the maximum extensions I have no way pay my rent and with this eviction I am on the verge of homelessness.
I am desperate!
I had already taken loans out to pay for necessities while on leave fully expecting to return to my job.
Maxed my credit cards and have sold almost everything I had of value which wasn't much .
.I am told by my attorney that it could take years to reach a settlement for personal injury
Any amount would help me right now .
But realistically I need $3000 for back rent $300 for eviction fees .
$2500 for utilities between $1000- $10,000 for a used car .My bank account is in the negative and adding fees daily $800
I am in cc and personal loan debt of $4000.
My Dental repairs would be around $2500.
I have been trying to prepare meals that are cheap and will last and just learned of a local food pantry.
My total would be $23,100.00
I know that sounds like so much
Even a dollaryou would be my savior ..
I would pay it forward when back on my feet .
I am really struggling with suicidal ideation and thoughts of hopelessness
I just can't see any way out of the situation.
My phone will be shut off in a few days and I have sent my resume to dozens of jobs .
I want to thank you for taking the time to read this .
Thank you ,
Very Humbled

Hey my name is Jonathan Hatten and I'm 31 years old, I lost my job a few months back and things have went straight downhill since then. I have a wife and 3 children and we are now homeless and I'm still trying to find work. We got evicted a few days ago and I'm just out of options to turn too and I'm not the one to ask for help but I don't know what else to do at this point. If u can find it in your heart to help I'll forever be indebted. Thank you

A blind woman looking for help to save her dream business |

This is my fourth attempt at finding the right words to say. I never thought I would be asking strangers on the internet for help but I seem to have exhausted all other resources. I don't exactly know where to begin.. I am a blind woman and like most I have struggled throughout my life but was given a glimmer of hope last year when I was offered the chance to become part of a program that helps people with disabilities your training and go back to work. Not only would I be going back to work but I would be owning my own business. I dream I had had for many years. So even though we knew it would be a struggle and we knew it would be hard my fiance and I decided that I should do this program. I cut my hours drastically at the job I currently had which set us back financially to begin with but somehow we muddled through the 6 months of training and I finally was able to prepare to open my own business. However it took several more months and they told us it would they moved us to a city 2 hours away from her home promising that we would start work immediately after arrival this didn't happen we did not open our store for 3 months we use what we had in savings for a wedding to barely screw it by.. but we finally open the store and we thought things would be going great but then my fiance couldn't find work and his mother's cancer returned wake up behind on rent and bills and car payments barely could help his mom with her medical needs.. but then business started to pick up and we thought things were going great until early one morning a couples of weeks ago put the business in jeopardy y and now I need money to help save it and my home I have tempted to get a regular loan but both my fiance and I don't have enough credit and my business is not been open long enough. I need at least 3,000 for my business to survive but any other help would be greatly appreciated funny my fiance and his mother.
Thank you for the wonderful human beings who read this and for those who want to help.
I also apologize if my grammar is not very good and this post like I mentioned I am blind and so I am using the talk to speak option and sometimes it doesn't work the best with the grammar and punctuation.

Medical costs for surgeries, physical therapy and cost of living expenses |

Hi There,
After moving to another state, I was more than thrilled to be living in an area where I could get good pay from a nationally recognized company who I dreamed and intended to retire with. I had worked in this kind of job with UPS in my home state and loved the work. I got a job with the company I dreamed of working with, which started before all construction and safety tools were available to be put into place for the job. Still, I was determined and I worked hard and showed up as dependable, because every company has some kind of startup growing pains. Weeks and months passed and all the safety things were repeatedly promised but the most important ones never came. In training we were told don't ever go out with XY + Z, but then push came to shove and we were told go out without it, or your fired. Many of the safety needs still are not in place. Demand pushed the need and threats overlooked the safety and compromise of the employee's. I got hurt on the job and when a rep noticed the blood on my hands and ripped gloves, he asked if I was okay and told me to rest up and he would see me tomorrow. Due to not having the proper equipment to move large loads or get around in the snow and ice and wind, I suffered three more injuries. I knew that things can take a long time to heal and I just simply hoped things would get better. I kept pushing through as my employer told all of us to. The last injury left me nearly unable to walk and when I checked in at the end of my shift, I reported the injury to the company and instead of agreeing with me to get it checked out, I was told it was my Friday, so heal up on my days off and show up on my next scheduled day. But the next morning my knee was three times the normal size, stuck in a bent position and I couldn't put any weight on it and that was just a part of it. I was seen by a doctor and forced to file a workman's comp claim. My employer didn't file paperwork within the timeline given and wasn't held accountable. I filed all the paperwork and then was left hanging by them without a way to get the needed MRI in a timely manner. By the time they filed the paperwork admitting responsibility and clearing me for the MRI, enter full Covid mode. I spent the pandemic in isolation and in pain with nothing significant being done for my injuries. When Covid lifted, I was yelled at by the company HR rep, threatened and mistreated and was told they just wanted me off the books. Shortly after, the infamous attorney I had hired, changed his tune as well. I appealed to the WC and had a hearing in which I was unfairly left in a position of never being able to get replacement representation for the case. My TDP stopped at this time and I appealed the DIME. I paid $1,000 to be seen by a doctor whom I never got to help choose. Still I was hopeful since I was paying for the appointment, I would be treated fairly. The doctor joked about playing a judge on TV and told me he never gives the patients what they need unless they will beg him for it and the way he said it, he was asking for a "favor" in exchange. He did give me a disability rating but said he had to give both sides something because he has been doing his job for 40 years and he doesn't want to create enemies. He agreed I need surgery however they weren't going to pay for it. He suggested I get another job, and not tell them about my injuries and then just go through them to get fixed because obviously I would be putting myself into a position I wouldn't be able to do without my injuries flaring. He told me, just don't use the crutches when you go for the interview. I don't know how our system is so messed up. The Orthopedic Surgeon who told me the only way for me to get close to back to normal at this point is going to be with surgeries and extensive physical therapy. I need $148,000 to be able to have the necessary medical care to recover. Besos, doesn't care that I got hurt on the job working for his company. A company I wanted to create a legacy through and have a good retirement life. I am being left behind with permanent injuries and cannot work. Please help me get the needed medical care to be able to hike with my kids and play with my grandbabies. Please help me get back to me and back to my family. I have been left to suffer for the last three years and it has certainly taken its toll, physically, emotionally and financially. I am Besos broken and I'm being left behind. But I am refusing to give up and I am asking you to not give up on me either. I still have a lot of life to live. Please help me live it better.
Thank you
