Hello, my name is Carlishia and I am a 33-year-old single mother raising 6 children alone. I know you might be thinking, here's another baby mama from the ghetto begging for money. Well, that's not who I am nor what I'm about. I'm actually hardworking and dedicated to my children and God; I'm just at odds with life right now.

My newborn son has a PFO in his heart, which is a leaky valve and may need to be repaired because it's causing other illnesses throughout his body. I also have an 8-year-old daughter with a pending diagnosis of leukemia. She's been to several hospitals that suggest she needs chemotherapy. She's had 2 blood transfusions and she's very ill all the time.

I also have a seizure disorder that's triggered by stress and anxiety, which is all triggered by the health of my children. I lost a son in 2012 to SIDS and I can't fathom losing another. Please help if you can with gas to get back and forth to Riley's Children's Hospital for both children, bills that can't be paid due to no work, overpriced formula, and activities for my daughter to do because she can't spend a lot of time outdoors with her other siblings and friends.
