Hi, my name is Spencer, and I'm using this as a last resort. My girlfriend and I need help. We've got a lot going on in our lives and we can hardly afford to deal with it all. I lost my job due to health reasons I developed because of exposure to chemicals (I was a cleaner in a fish plant) and I got another job at a different plant which was only seasonal, and I've now been laid off. I'm trying to get unemployment but so far it's complicated because the first plant screwed me over and the EI offices are still trying to make a decision. My girlfriend, who moved from a few hours away to live with me is also struggling to find work in this area because of her condition called endometriosis, which causes her a lot of pain and stress. Thankfully her unemployment situation has been sorted out and she should be receiving a payment soon, but it'll hardly help us until I can get mine too. I have been trying to find another job, but there is nothing available in my area.
We need money so we can travel to her appointments, as well as find our own place to live (we currently live with my parents), take care of our two young cats that need to be fixed, and hopefully focus on making a better future for ourselves and getting out of this slump. I don't know exactly how much we'd need, but any amount at all would be greatly appreciated. My PayPal link is paypal.me/revspennicus
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I'm looking for some financial help, I'm so stuck I don't know what to do, I'm currently at university and I've not be able to work due to the amount of studying I have to do. I didn't expect the student loan would be so low otherwise I probably would of stayed working full time, I've gone to university at 29yrs and studying herbal medicine, last year my bf and i book our wedding along with our hoilday as it worked out if we stayed for two weeks we get a free wedding. We went ahead with this and our to due to marry on the 12/01/2018.. since booking our wedding we have been through a finance struggles. I'm now so close to my wedding with no dress, and no funds to get one either, I don't have family as I grew up in care and is the main reason we are going away as I don't have anyone on my side so we aren't inviting any guests. I've tried applying for another loan but I've missed a payment on another one so was declined. I've used my student loan for accomerdation and still struggling with that.

Stranded, desperate for help |

I used to live with my fiance and her family. Her father is a massive, abusive brute. Kate has medical issues that cause seizures, and whenever she would have one, her father would stand over her, waiting for her to finish so he could berate her for it. He treated her like a seizure was a behavioral issue that just needed enough punishment to solve.
Her whole family was pretty bad, honestly. Her seizure triggers are stress and noise, so of course, the whole house was a noisy, high stress environment. Whenever Kate would ask people to tone it down a little, they would pile it on even worse.
Anyway, on Thanksgiving of 2016, they had other family staying over. It was a crowded, noisy mess. Kate couldn't sleep at all for like three days. And her mother's solution was just suck it up, this is your fault anyway. So I threw some stuff in the car and took Kate to a hotel room. We were there for a few days, and after that, we started sleeping in the car.
It was exhausting, but her health actually started improving. After a month, we figured, OK, maybe we can go back now. They don't have guests anymore. Maybe it'll be OK. So we started spending a few hours at a time, still sleeping in the car, but getting closer to sleeping at the house again. Until Christmas.
Christmas Day, we went up to see the extended family, as you do. Kate's father was just an angel all day long. We were planning to finally start sleeping at the house again. Evening comes, we all go home, and he puts on some crime drama marathon. It's a little too loud, so Kate asks him if he minds turning it down. He does so...for about five minutes, until she's out of the room again, and then he turns it up louder than it was previously.
Kate seizes. I'm just trying to get her out of the house. Suddenly, her father comes screaming out the door, chases us down the street, yelling at us to never step foot in his house again. So we haven't. And we won't.
We were homeless for about a year after that, scrimping and trying to save and begging our friends for money. Last month, we got a break. A windfall, just enough to let us rent a trailer and move across country.
You guys, it was almost heaven here. There was just one little problem: the phone lines going to the house are bad. I work online. I haven't been able to work since we got here because we barely have enough money to get into town. We've been scraping by for two weeks with a car that needs repairs. Even when I do get to a library or, like right now, a McDonalds, my computer doesn't work anymore. The hard drive won't connect or something, so I can only get online at all by using an Ubuntu live USB.
I'm stranded at this McDonalds right now. I don't have enough money to get home, and I won't until I get paid on Thursday. Kate is home, and she has food there, but I have nothing. Once they kick me out of here, I'm going to be sleeping in my car. I had a hamburger today, and I've got enough for another one tomorrow, and then I'll be going hungry. And even on Thursday, I'm going to have to spend almost my entire paycheck on Kate's medication because she's been out for two weeks. My landlord gave me a brief respite on getting the rent in, but only a brief one.
I don't know what I'm going to do. Please, I'm begging you guys. Help me.

MNAt 26, my life changed in the worst way I could imagine. I woke up to the phone call that my husband had passed away. Disbelief, fear, the feeling of your heart shattering into a million pieces which can be felt throughout every single part of you. My first thoughts was how would I tell my children? My son was 6, & my daughter was 4. Who will walk her down the isle? Who will take him fishing? Who will keep us safe in this crazy world? My second thought was that I am a believer in all things good...Instantly the Bible verse came to my head "For where two or three come together in my name, I am there with them." So I called a friend & I prayed. I prayed fiercely, I prayed hard, as a person who believes anything is possible with God, I thought surely this would bring my husband back. Unfortunately it didn’t. The day after we buried him & I had to hold my kicking, screaming 4 year old from trying to go with the casket, I felt very nauseous upon waking that morning. Not any kind of nauseous, the nauseous a woman feels when she knows her body isn’t the same. I was pregnant. The emotions were almost overwhelming. Joy, excitement, fear, nervous, & sad that this sweet angel would never meet his/her Dad.
A few weeks later I was bleeding, & rushed to the doctor only to find out that this baby had gone to be with their dad in heaven. Just as I didn’t know how I would make it through 1 devastating loss, the enemy now put another grueling loss on my shoulders. The past year has been a struggle to keep going, but my 2 sweet babies give me the strength to get out of bed each day.
My job gave me 7 paid days off when my husband passed. I went back for a few weeks until the loss of my child I was pregnant with. At that point I had no more time off to take, but I knew I needed to be at home helping my children get through the struggles they were facing each day as they longed for their Dad. My son begged to be home school as he unfairly fought depression & anxiety at just 6 years old. I was off a total of 4 months before I started working again. During those 4 months I tried refinancing my home through my mortgage company Chase, N.A Bank. As most of y’all know, during the Home modification process you don’t make any payments until the process is complete. At which time if approved, they often add the amount you have missed to the principal & start your lower monthly payments once the process is complete. I was sure I would be approved due to my hardship in losing the primary Bread winner of the household. Chase sent me a denial letter 2 months ago in which they did not give me a reason other than saying I didn’t meet the qualifications. I make enough in my current 2 jobs to pay my monthly mortgage until I can get it lowered, but Chase has recently put my home into foreclosure unless I pay the 4 months payments I missed in a one time reinstatement fee due within 30 days, as I must pay before the auction sale of my home. I’m embarrassed that I would ever end up in a situation where I wasn’t sure that I would even be able to keep the roof over my kids head. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Grief is such an overwhelming feeling that demands to be felt, & I pray for anyone else who has lost someone far before their time to go. God bless.

Help me pay off debt while I get healthy |

Hello anyone and everyone out there!
I have recently had to shut down my own business in order to give myself more time to become, well, less mentally ill. You see, I have PTSD from multiple factors in my past, long drawn out abuse from bullies along with sexual violence when I was even younger than that. Not to mention this year has been very unsettling. At the start of the year, I lost my job due to a strict tardiness policy compounded with several family emergencies in a row. Then, my marriage deteriorated and we finally divorced this September, and while our divorce was finalizing, one of my dogs died with out explanation and the other was hit by a car 2 months after that. So, without any direct family in my life, I fell to pieces, and haven't been able to pick them up. I have trouble just being able go outside. I can't seem to hold down a job now because every time I even attempt to go, I either have a panic attack or puke all over the place, neither of which a useful situation to be in, especially while driving.
I really need $875 by the end of the month and I don't know what else to do. I have a ton of medical debt as well as a couple of loans I still need to pay. All of which amounts to about $10,000 and I can't even.
I really need to get healthy, and I need time to do that, if you help me, you'll be enabling me to fix myself.
Please help and even if you don't, thanks for at least reading this,
Justin
