Help Us Save Our Home and Provide Health Care

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Supporters, my wife and I are in shock to be in this position. I realize that there are many people in need of help. We are those who give back to our community every month and have been doing so for years. Hi, my name is Wynton, and I am seeking help to save our home and property. I am a father in my mid-sixties who has worked hard to raise a family of seven for 27 years. My wife has homeschooled all of our children successfully and is establishing her profession. However, she does not generate enough income to help us sustain. She has a compassionate heart to help support children and families with the knowledge she has acquired over the years. Our son Simeon developed Crohn's at the age of 13. Little did we know it would be a lifelong battle of surgeries, difficulty, and expenses to keep him healthy and happy.

Recently, I lost my job attempting to take on too many responsibilities, which caused professional exhaustion. Since then, I have been actively searching for a new job, but when you get in your sixties, there aren’t many companies wanting to hire you. You begin to experience ageism while looking for another job opportunity.

We have suffered another family crisis. Our son Simeon has had to endure five major life-changing surgeries due to an extremely volatile case of Crohn's disease. He has persevered to help make a life for himself by completing his college degree online and 3 certifications, one to help others in the field of EMT. Simeon has had no choice but to suffer the complete loss of his large intestines. He is going through a lot with this change with limited mental support. Last month. Simeon was admitted into the ICU due to another condition called Gieualfoy Lesion’s disease. This condition impacts the Crohn's and makes it more aggressive. The condition is deadly, and he was told he has approximately 10-15 years before it may become fatal. The added stress has made looking for work all the more difficult for both of us.

During this time, I was able to use our savings to pay necessary bills only. We were hoping I could make it back to work, but sadly this is not the case as of yet. It would be difficult for any of us to leave our home, but it could be especially devastating for Simeon to have to make this change at this time in his life. A year ago, I knew I needed to do something to help our family permanently come out of our financial distress. After seeing cryptocurrency platforms on television, I decided to try and make some investment moves to offset costs and/or make enough to pay off all debt and retire. I decided to invest in cryptocurrency. I used all of our savings and retirement to aid this investment. This move appeared to be a winner until it came time to withdraw my profitable funds. This exchange kept asking for fees and more fees and taxes until I couldn't deposit any more funds. When I inquired about my profits, the trade platform closed my account, shut down their server, and locked and stole all of my funds, bankrupting me. I discovered that I had been robbed. Now faced with no income and no way to borrow money after 17 years here, we are about to lose everything. We have worked very hard to buy this home. This home is what I had intended to leave to my children and my wife who loves this home.

We are seeking help of $8,000 or more. These funds will help us to bring the mortgage current, pay up our bills, and allow us to sustain until I can find sufficient income. We intend to help Simeon in any way we can during this crisis.

A note to you: Please research well your investments into cryptocurrency before you invest. There are horrible, selfish people out there, scamming folks out of their hard-earned money.
