<div>Hi, my name is Chuck and I am 65 years young ! I died about 12 months ago without any warning my heart started going crazy. I thought maybe it was gas ( been embarrassed before from that ) so I tried bouncing around on the lawn mower to work it loose .( nope) so I then tried pickle juice to help , (nope). Then that nasty taste from baking soda ( thanks Google that one sucked the worst ) (also nope).
</div>
<div>I told my wife I was going to lay down for a little while and if it didn't get better I would go to the ER. She didn't buy that and fussed until I went to the hospital. Once there they took my vitals and then it went crazy from there ! I was told I was having a heart attack known as a widow maker ! ( DID I MENTION IT WAS FRIDAY THE 13TH?) THE DR. FETURA told me that I owe my wife my life , had I laid down I wouldn't be writing this. I will forever be grateful to Both of them !
</div>
<div>Less than 2 weeks later DISASTER STRUCK ! Hurricane Helen wiped out my shop,my doublewide,my wife's car and my new zero turn lawnmower. (Saved for years to buy !) All I could do was look out the windows -I wasn't able to do any lifting or bending for about 3 months.
</div>
<div>All my years of collecting "stuff" ( wife calls junk lol!) was scattered across the field and all we had left to live in was an older Winnebago (that I thought we would finally get to travel in our old age.) WRONG!
</div>
<div>GOD won't put you thru something and leave you alone ! I believe that with all my heart ❤️.
</div>
<div>I accepted what has happened as my test for sparing my life and giving me another chance.
</div>
<div>&gt;&gt;&gt;To shorten my situation- building codes has condemned my shop,my damaged double wide (totaled) and now my RV. ( can't live in a camper in Spartanburg city or county ! Even if you OWN the land ! (Money hungry city !) I am on fixed income and my wife is going thru menopause and also disabled trying to get benefits and can't work either. She is her mother's caregiver who also lives with us ! (Her mother is challenged mentally and has the mind of a 13 year old )
</div>
<div>I had a small savings but it went quick after my triple bypass. Now we are hiding in our RV (with a big red notice on it saying we can't be in any of my property blds. After 5pm and not before 9am. But I can sleep in my car on my property &lt;&gt; stupid laws are causing me serious issues. I have No money to afford rent ,or even fix up my place to satisfy the county codes.
</div>
<div>Begging is very embarrassing and sometimes people hurt your feelings because they don't know what you are going thru.
</div>
<div>My Church has fed us and helps with our mental strain. We are in an area that was hit hard and the church has strained to help but so many others need it too !
</div>
<div>We can't find help to care for her mother because she receives such a small check . ( never worked and built up no benefits her whole life.) She will be mistreated if put in a home ! She has a lot of issues where that is not an option.
</div>
<div>I have a tiny home 12x40 bld. I am trying to fix up before the cold weather comes but I am not completely healed from my attack.
</div>
<div>I really tried to get by without this but Satan just keeps kicking me ,I have nowhere to turn. If you have an extra dime or two I will never be able to thank you enough for helping but I do know God will smile if you can!
</div>
<div>I don't deserve mercy but those I love and take care of really do ! I have a longer story i really don't want to re-live but will share with you if you need a good cry.
</div>
<div>There are people you know who need help so I really think you should help them first and if any is left ......
</div>
<div>Please pray for us even if you can't help ! I know your prayers will be heard !
</div>
<div>Thank you for reading this and anytime you feel down ,hit me up on Facebook . I will listen and pray for you too because we all need it one way or another.
</div>
<div>If you don't believe Jesus loves you , YOU ARE VERY WRONG ! I AM ALIVE TODAY BECAUSE HE LOVES ME AND HAS PLANS FOR THIS LIFE HE SPARED HERE ON THIS EARTH . AMEN
</div>
<div>I WISH IT WAS THE OTHER WAY AROUND AND I COULD BE ONE HELPING OTHERS.
</div>
<div>JUST REMEMBER THIS; JOHN 3:16
