Hi my name is JoLene i am a recently divorced single mother an survivor of domestic abuse, however i am disabled; for now, im fighting back with a team of dr's working on my spine to get me back on my feet asap! im am in a very precarious situation since my divorce after 2yrs of living with an abusive husband my sons father decided to kidnapp him an take me to court for sole custody, an he fights dirty! he has tried to get all my resources taken away with lies so that he can prove me unfit, he is trying to make it imossible for me to care for my 4 children by getting our financial aid/food/medical taken away, an my housing assistance an last he has contacted my landlord to have him refuse to let me stay past jan 31st.since my lease became month to month, now i have an amazing attorney who is fighting on my behalf against everything including every wrench my ex throws into this custody battle. i had to take my 3yr old son to the E.R. last week with bruises he said his dad gave him the owies, but this man works with the police department an prides himself on how well he plays politics so it is going nowhere, in the meantime i have found a different house but the leasing agent/landlord requires the security deposit by feb 1 to hold the house till my housing authority can get me transferred an inspect an approved for them to make the payments to the landlord on my behave so i have no worries about affording the house after i scure it. if their are any angels out there that can help in anyway so we dont end up on the street in a week plz contact me via email just31mine@gmail.com i can provide proof of everything the agency that handles leasing/maintenance/management for the landlords can be reached directly by googling deltarep.com an has a pay direct online option i wld have to give the address but not on here for safety sake, like i said anything will help i just cant afford to loose this house or i will lose my son/kids an that is not an option they are my life! thanks for reading an God Bless!

Hi! I am a stay at home mom of three kids and my husband is the primary breadwinner. He just lost his job, he has had for over 18 years! We have no money saved and he's trying to get unemployment but the company he was working for is preventing this from happening, so he will have to appeal their decision, so we have no idea when or if we will have money to pay bills. I know right now that we will not be able to buy our kids anything. Please somebody help give these kids a Christmas, I've never asked for anything before and have lived off very little but I can't think of my kids ages 11, 13, and 14 without 1 present on the holidays. We have no family to help, I don't know what else to do.
Please email me at gladshawn@mail.com if you or someone you know can help us!
I've contacted the Salvation Army and they are no longer accepting applications for adopt a family for Christmas!

Cheruan6@gmail.com
in response to MOM MOM...Thank You.....Yes, I too believe that it was god that made this fall happen so that way we know of this tumor that is growing...I believe in everything happens for a reason..some of those reasons I'm still trying to figure out such as why god took there father away from them at an early age...things like that make me wonder..and so far I still haven't gotten a reason why..my daughter that has the tumor she has a lot of anxiety and is always telling me what if he is out there somewhere mom and we don't know...it just gets hard..It hurts me to see her hurting at this point she has being going through depression..I am looking for a good psychologist to work with her because she really needs help...I know I am a strong woman and I need to stay strong for my children during these ruff times...Today I didn't go to church I couldn't get me and my kids to walk in the cold weather..but good news I have a lady coming over today to look at my dining room table that I am selling...I never wanted to sell it but there comes a time like this when you have no choice...So I am hoping and keeping my fingers crossed she will buy my Dining table it is worth $2200 and I am selling for $700 and I am selling my king size bed which is worth $3800 with double pillow top mattress for only $1200 My kids are telling me mom don't sell your bed or our dining table but I tell them I have no choice right now..It kills me but I have to do what I have to do..I just want to say thanks for taking the time to reply to my post and I will definitely look into these programs...Thank You & god Bless you
The way I see it the lord is the one responcible for the fall that uncovered the tumor. The Devil is trying to seperate you from your faith in GOD. In four years I lost my daughter, my husband ,my father and my mother. I am raising my daughters child and I am in a wheelchair. Most days I get 1 can of Beeferoni to eat so she gets enough balanced meals. GOD doesn't promise us an easy road but he is there with us all the way and CHRIST opened the gates of heaven. When your child is in the hospital contact the local Ronald Mc Donald House. Speak with the house director tell them everything. Talk to your daughters school nurse and ask if she can direct you to help. And I hate to use theses words , but contact your local American Cancer for help getting to Dr's appointments, they even have programs that help with the cost of things you need. If your state has a Catastrophic illness in children fund they can help in many ways. Call the Governers office to check into all of this. Be humble, be strong, be persistant and know that GOD is by your side always.Also with the serious illness that your child has perhaps they could stay the forclosure. I was in forclosure and did not make enough from disability to qualify fro the programs. I investigated the owner (CEO) of the mortgage company. I found out who his Rabbi is and called the Rabbi who interceded on my behalf. I eat that 1 can a day so my payment is not one day late. Be inventive. God Bless you and your family.
Sorry I'm guessing I was posting in the wrong area.
If anyone decides to help my family out...I forgot to say that I have a pay pal account edelgado@yahoo.com in my last post..I have faith in my heavenly father and if these are trails that have been sent to me....I just ask why so much at once??? I am an active church member and I have faith...but it never seems as if something tries to keep me away from church..I was given a recommend from my Bishop to go to classes so I can prepare to go to the church Temple and for some reason I was going to all my classes and strike something happens..I no longer could attend those classes...Then now that I am active again and going strong all these things start to happen...1st my daughter falls and hurts her knees and during the xrays they find a tumor growing in her femur and doctor want to so surgery during Thanksgiving Break..We have faith that this will not be a bad tumor...2nd Me and my husband are not able to find a job so there for we are not going to be able to afford Christmas...but as long as we are together we are happy...3rd Just last night things couldn't have gotten any worse...my car got repossessed ..all I could do was cry then I told my self what is crying going to do...So I brushed my self off this morning and told my self okay my faith in my heavenly father is going to help me get through this hard time I know these are trials and I think why so much..but I know this is going to make my family stronger...I just can't let go of my faith!!!!
God bless all
Sincerely
Keeping faith in Las Vegas

I am a disabled single mother of two boys ages are 13 and 7. I live off disability and child support it doesn't even cover my food and bills. My car is on its last leg it needs lots of work and tires... Long story short my boys are going to go with out this year for Christmas. I am so sad because they work so hard to help me due to my disability... I have never had to ask for help. My boys mean the world to me and hate that we are in this position. If u would like to adopt my family I would appreciate it!!! I wish I could pay back anyone willing to help... I could only payback with my greatfulness and building a possible friendship :))...

I guess I would fall in the catagory of Single Parent for the first time in my life after a 28yr. marriage.
I have a beautiful young daughter of 16, about to graduate from High School. I also have went back to finish my GED, Math is the last subject to complete. I want to pursue a carrier in the medical field and become a Licensed Vocational Nurse. Both Christina and I volunteer in the community.
Christina goes to Tijuana, Mex. once a month with a group from our church "Team Mexico" and I volunteer at a State Prison with "Life Term Prisoners" on Sundays mornings. I really love it and I know that Christina enjoys doing missonary work herself.
This year will be our first Christmas together by ourselves, but know that God is with us and He will never leave us alone nor forsake us, and so we ask you to please consider taking us in as your part of your blessing and adopt us for Christmastime.
Love,
Grace and Chris Rueda
I am hoping to get my family adopted for Christmas It's been a really rough year I have three children ages 2,5,8.I barley get a enough money to pay my rent and bills and sometimes I can't even afford my bills can't even afford furniture to sit on let alone Christmas My husband works but it seems like its just enough to keep the car going .I just completed school to open a daycare business and can't even scrape enough money to get that going .I'm just asking if someone would please adopt my family it would be a great blessing
I am a single mom in need of christmas help household supplies and furniture and food moved from georgia due to a family medical could not bring clothes or other things with me due to that family has nothing. only have ssi to support us and pay rent. kids have limited school clothes very cold. please help our family!
I am a 30 yr old single mom and I lost my job dealing with my 6 yr old daughter's situation. Last August 2009 she was sexually assualted by her brother which cost a rift between her dads family and myself I spent time trying to find resources to help her and continue to go to work. Ive had to take off work due to her withdrawing from school or disruptive behavior and when I asked her dad for help to get her counseling he told me I was on my own. Her dad and I have been divorced for 3 years now and he has stopped working so I no longer have child support coming in. I just got another job and from the time I lost my job I until now Ive work for a medical staffing company to keep sum money coming in to pay rent but they have been canceling my shifts which leaves me with no money. Today I went to a Nursing facility and was hired on the spot but they only get paid by monthly which means I wont get a pay check until 12/1/2010 I am desprately seeking help because I only have 2 weeks to come up with 800.00 and 11/1/10 it will be higher . I have even left my car broke down just to pay my leasing office and catch the bus to work and its hard but Im trying. I have no where and absolutely no where to go with my daughter and maintain this new job which is only a 30 min bus ride from where I live currently. If there is any help at all you can give me words will never express my gratitude even if its a contact for some to help me so I can get things under control and get my daughter the help she needs. One postive thing about me being off is I was able to go to her school be with her and be home to comfort her when she needs it and that has smooth things out a little but I still need to go to work so I can keep a home because no one would want to be on the streets with their children. I pray you can help and if your not God bless you anyway for just having the heart to want to help someone but I do understand you are only human and can do so much. I will however continue to pray for your organization and the people needing help. I pray the God opens doors for you to be able to do more as well as bless you abundantly in your personal lives...Thank You

in response to greeneyez...If you go to you local doctor and explain the issue that you need help with your electric bill he will call the public service company and indicate that it would be deatramintal to you and child health or give you a vouchure that you take to the eletrict company that will give you some time to pay your bill or try goverment asst like low income asst for electric bill caled leap
Thank you for you response. I definetly have been praying and after reading some of the posts I see the hope shining through everyone's pain. The love for each other.
I learned how to meditate and that helps when I feel I am slipping into darkness. I have developed the ability to see the light around people and that is uplifting.
Its always good to express yourself. This helps with some of the frustration. Through all you go through, don't give up. I am working and still unable to pay my rent and make ends meet which is why I have received an eviction notice also. I was upset by pray helps me get through. I have also depleted my resources, but I continues to go on. Just keep praying.
do you have a goverment program in your state called leap low income assistant program if not check your goverment pages they general help people with children or you could get get a doctor note indicating that it would be detralmental to the child heath if eletrict was to be shut off all so the hospital has a social worker who might be able to help get you into a program that would help pay for it check this out and let me know if it helps
Hi, I agree with mandrwilson to try local churches. I have also been seeing alot of posts of calling 211. There may also be information for you on Starshine blog. A local trustee will be able to help in what your options would be considering you are working. 4 years ago I had no choice but to take that route. Wish you the best.
