Help Carlton's Family Overcome Epilepsy Challenges
Donation protected
Diagnosed Epilepsy since 2012,been working through it as waiter, TLC driver NYC & Children entertainer(Mr.Browntheclown) . In 2020 stopped driving because of covid didnt want to do taxi work and risk bringing that outbreak home to the family. At that time we had recently had birth 5th child in 2019 .When I started back driving 2021 my epilepsy had gotten worse and my lisence had gotten suspended because of car accidents. So for income i Borrowed PPP loan and did unemployment but that stopped in quickly 2022. So that's no unemployment, and loan was used for cost of living and bills and my 5 children at that time. Applied for many CITY JOBS but because of health condition and not having a lisence wasn't approved to work then. Also had birth of my youngest child 2022 baby number 6 ,after birth i took stay home dad position and childcare for that child while my wife works . Been also waiting on DISABILITY and since also . Been denied 3 times thus far ,the process takes some time before approval. Got tired of waiting and started late 2024 looking into a stay at home job.Also son now recieves child care at a center so im now able to go out to work . Now this happens right here top of the year 2025 .This technically make me more disable on top of having seizures . Maybe DISABILITY would approve now but I still have bills to pay( life insurance, car insurance,student loans ,PPP loan and providing for the home (children & wife ). This GOFUNDME donation is going towards that PPP & STUDENT loans . I'll have to use what I have from my savings to pay those regular monthly bills and expenses. You can also choose to send donation to cash app $carltonbanks24 . Prayes are always welcome either way donating or not . This took me getting burnt and now possibly losing of finger in upcoming surgery ill be having to put pride aside. I NEVER ASKED anyone but STUDENT loan and the GOVERNMENT loan for money .
