Hi everyone. I absolutely hate asking for help, but things are pretty dire right now. I’ve been out of work since October due to my hip injury & surgery. My surgeon says I can’t go back to work until July. If I go back now, I will be permanently disabled with my hip. My fiancé Brian, resigned from his job in December to take care of me & David as I was unable to do anything for a long time. Brian has applied to 56 jobs on Indeed with no luck yet. He does remote phone sales & customer service, so if anyone knows of anyone hiring for that, please let me know.

My short term disability has now ended and I cannot get long term disability through Walmart because I was
not a full time employee. I do receive SSDI, but it’s not enough to support a family of 3. I’m not worried about myself, I am worried about my son. Additionally, his biological father does not pay child support.

Our electric is about to be shut off & I need to provide for my son. My birthday is on Sunday; I was supposed to go see Shane Gillis on Friday for my birthday. However, I had to sell those tickets to pay my car payment. We are making appointments this week to sell our blood & plasma. We are doing everything we can. I did find a job that will hopefully start next month. I’m meeting with my new employer tomorrow.

I have maxed out all of my credit cards & took numerous loans from Afterpay for food & household essentials that I can’t pay back right now. I can’t take out anymore loans since I no longer have the ability to pay them back. I am looking around my house for things to sell. I sold almost all of my life time collections years ago for baby formula & diapers.

If you don’t want to donate money, I can make a list of things that my son needs on Walmart or Amazon. I’m desperate & I don’t know what else to do. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

(I applied for & will receive $328 on 5/9 of SNAP benefits for the month. That will only help for 2 weeks as grocery prices are still rising. I’ve already utilized the local Baptist church food pantry).

If you’d like to contact me personally, please feel free to message me on Facebook. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
