God please send me an angel I'm trying so hard I know you work in mysterious ways I will not lose faith in you. Thank you for all you have blessed me an my family with.
I needed help long before Christmas Time started to roll around.I'm not too proud to ask for help but, since I lost my job ...I felt that help others and God will help you.So I spend my down time when not looking for work at the local food bank and shelter helping others.I have the usual problems a lot have with making my bills and health as well as depression.My problems are not as bad as others but I have to everyday pray for the strenghtn to keep busy finding a way to stay off the street and the poor house.I didn't think I'd find time to write this but the head of the food bank made me take a day off and gave me Aidpage URL address.I hope someone can find hope and help from what I do and say everyday whether or not anyone helps me..I know I've done all I could for them.I guess I'm asking for whatever you'd like to help me with.I know God will bless thoses who bless others so thats why I'm not pressing anyone for help...their been Times I had seems nothing at all and God made a way for me,So pray and believe I know he'll make a way for you too!
Hello, I am not sure where you live but I get diapers for my disabled son from J & B Supply Co. (1-800-737-0045). Some places use Airway Oxigen or Carelinc as well. All you have to do is call either your ins. co. to find out who supplies them or call around and sign up. As long as your child is over 3 yrs they qualify and get things delivered monthly. It really helps a lot I have 3 in diapers so it cuts down the expenses on that and they provide gloves, wipes and butt Crea for us. They have more available to you if needed. Hope this helps. Merry Christmas!
hi i have two children and am a single mom just got out of an abuseof relationship and just got us on are feet im in need of some help for christmas plz and god bless
This time of year doesn't stop your regular needs it just seems to make them stand out more. (Somedays more than others) I know I am not the only one in need and I am hoping maybe I can help someone too. My 6 yr old( well birthday is Jan 6) has hardly any clothes and my daughter is in boys or neutral clothes( handed down). I was thinking maybe someone else in need. Would like to trade? For my boy anything size 6/7 I will take. For baby girl I will take anything 9 months and up...they grow fast so I'll take larger sizes. Let me know if you could use boy sizes 2t and under or 5t and we'll talk.
Hello I am a stay at home mom do to having 2 disabled children. I do have 3 kids altogether. My oldest is 6 (boy) he was born with afew issues and has had 3 surgeries so far. Despite that he is very energetic and creative. He changed my life for the better. Next I have a rambunctious 3 yr old boy who never stops. Last but not least I have my 9 month old girl. We just found out that she will be going in for surgery due to her soft spots closing. Basically I want us to be together for Christmas but ofcourse the kids want Santa. I don't have the heart to tell them we are broke, cannot afford bills or even going back and forth to the hospital. I don't think they would understand anyways. If someone can help it would be appreciated and if not understood....lots of people are in need right now. Either way Happy Holidays to all.

Soy una madre d dos hijas mental y fisicamente incapacitadas. A consecuencia d sus condiciones no puedo trabajar. tengo que cumplir con sus citas y diferentes situaciones. Tengo problemas para lograr el trabajo apropiado el cual me brinde el tiempo q ellas requieren. El unico ingreso q tengo es el SSI d ella. Que no es mucho solo $704.00 al mes q eso se va d renta y los demas facturas estan en las nubes. Ahora mi renta esta atrasada por varios meses y estan por sacarme. La luz proximamente la apagaran por falta d pago. Es tiempo d navidad y no tengo ni siquiera para regalarles algo a ninguna d ellas solo deudas. Si en algo me puedan ayudar se los agradecere.
Hello all hope that you had a great holiday! I go by the name madlived because it is the combination of my three wonderful children names. My Thanksgiving Holiday was hard because my son is in the hospital and has been for a month. I am a hard worker but I am struggling financially and I was wondering if anybody could help me with info for Christmas help. I am willing do work for someone in exchange. Please contact me if you have any idea's.
Thanks and hope to hear back:)
in response to Sandav1...I havent been helped yet no. I messaged one other girl in here once an she was as lost as i was in the sight unsure of how to use it an how it worked if it worked she didnt know either. the only person who seems to know how it works or had suggestions for me as to look for help was schmidty..an i went where he said an still fumbled around an was unable to find help. I odnt know what i am doing..
dont see numbers to call or ??i am lost.
in response to Sandav1...Good Monring..Nope i havent figured out how to get help yet. You are only the second perosn who has contacted me or messaged me in tring to help in some way. I spoke to one other peson besideds you an schmidty..an she was only answering a message i sent to her. I ask her if she knew how to use this site ..she told me she didnt really know either an that was pretty much the conversation with her. every where i see is for out of state .
I live in erie,or loain county..in Ohio .
I would love to find a place i could afford in firelands school distric so my youngest could finish next yeat out in his same school. There are alot more services in lorain county then in the one the boys an I live right now (erie)county. erie everything is closed an i am on the edge of the county so i cant use lorain county serivrces..an to event try to get to anything erie might offer(food serivrces,clothing ect..)i would have to drive about a hour..an then look at that cost to me in dollars with Gas just to get there an back. eekk so I am stuck. I wish i could find a house to rent in lorain county but in south amherst,oblerin on the edge of so to stay ion firelands schools . We do qualify for a whole bunch of servieces though they have to be ..being offered an they arent . most of erie county things have been closed for years an when the opoen ..they post in newspaper. Why i dont know.If i could aford to have the news paper every day or on weekends i probely wouldnt need help with my other services. becauses then i would have extra money..ro blow right? So i cant aford news paper an they never know or tell you when if they might open the section 8 or public housing you havent a clue when this might happen so apparently onoly the people who can afford to receive newspaper deliverly arent eh ones who know of that servidce opeing na ruish down there an then the doors are closed an filled all spots again. This last two years has been really hard on me quite a struggle. I have probley aged 10 years in just the last two. my oldest son who has the special needs.. i try to help him..he takes alot to put up with him. he does take meds to help him thnk an moods an behaviores.an complusivenes. but the meds help but we go up an down on how we are doing from day to day. The struggles he goes through i go through the same for my younger son. i can feel everything that they do. thats how close i am to them emotionaly. my youngest son can make freinds an is able to socialy fix in most of the time. but my oldest son i wish i could find him a friend. i try to help him but in everything there is a double edged sword. Me being mom i look at both the good an the bad an see which is best for him..aan then thats what we do. I want him to be able to make freinds an have a buddy. he is a nice boy..though he wants a regualr freind . my son has slower proseccing but he can talk write ,read,tie his shoe,but hasnt ever really had such a simple things as a buddy or freind to hang with ..play xbox 360 games with ect. i had thought about big brother an sisiter sorta thing but i was always afraid of when he was younger an wasnt such a good speaker ..he would be mistreated by one of those people if ever with them out of my site. an i know once ONE thing happends you cant ever redo it or take it away . i think a moms responciblity top responciblity is to protect their children until they are grown an are able to do so for themselves. I still thinks moms after that take care of an stand up for an look out for the children oh yes. but when younger or not mature enough or responsible enough the mom should know that an stand up for them at every turn. I am protective yes. of both my boys..but they know what ever i can do for them I will try an i will always be there for them at every turn in their life as long as i am still breathing. and if possible event after that point. i have wanted childrne ever since i was a very young girl. I beleive God gave me them to love na protect..i plan on doing it . Some times when my boys are giving me moods ..an acting up..i shake my head an have to smile an look away..i think I know God gives you nothing more then you can handle some times i just think..Are you sure you gave me the right two?)lol I love them but i am not one who likes to argue or have people with raised voices around me unles we are at a football game watching my youngest .then i might be one right ion there yelling an cheering. I suppose i might need to come in this site a bit more an click on the other peoples pictures an read those . i didndt know until lastnight when schmidty said something about that in his message to me. thanks you . an if you or anyone elses has any other ideas or knows somerthing please share it with me. I am stil looking for a good friend ..for my son . He needs to have someone to run around with or visit with ..play games with,ride bikes what ever. nick has been studing to get his drivers lissens. though hasnt taken his temop test yet. alot of negative thinking people tell me he cant do it an he shouldnt be driving . i dont like being aorund people liek that. I have had that done to him since he was a baby. heck in preschool they didnt event think he should worry about learning to tie his shoe. they said there are velcro shoes now he doesnt need to tie. i said NO he will tie his shoe..velcro shoes are ugly an my son will not be wearing those. by end of that year he was tiing his shoe..no thinks to the school..this was a preschool with therapies ect..an they gave up an didnt want to try to teach him..sad isnt it .i wonder how many other moms listened to the doublt an negativeity an beleived in those people rather then the ablitiyes of their own children? scary to me it is. that same school did that with his writing to spelling of his name. preschool.. didnt want to teach him to write his name said he could now adays sign with a X or a check mark. i said NO he has to write his name. documents ect he has to beable to write his name. i hired another girl an her help me teach him..he still when to his preschool i jsut used them for social but teaching i didnt learn on them for much they wanted to do littel an only wanted to work with easier kids i guess? anythow by end of year he wrote his first middle an last name.he could ties his schoes an everyone esles. they have done this to him ALL his life when he was in public schools. this is why we have homeschooled him. he is taught. i did try a few times to do public schools for him..but it awalys turend out the same they were awful. its like they have an idea an thats it. i could tell soo much more an i could share the names of the schools.too i have no problems with that. they pat themselves on the back for being great schools but see..the test score show high for distric becasues all peicla kids they exempt from the tests so not to count. not resposible for showing progress . If parents of special kids got more involved an not just go to ieps meeting ...but read online info ..watch kids work.work with your kids,.talk to your kids ..give them your time..you will see ..schools most of them not so great. my oldest son is home scholed..i have a certified teacher come in everyday 5 days a week..for 4-5 hours each day One on one. if anyone can help me help him..please let me know..i wouild love to speak with you. Next year should be meds out hopefull to help altiemers,autisium,fragle-x,asburgers..(they all envolve behaviores,retreaving information fromthe brain,social skills,memories)..they will piggy back on eachother on research thats done. one gain in one of theses disablities will have a domino resoult..it will be wonferful an help soo many. in tries now should next year be out? think research right now is for fragel -x.

Hello two teen boys, by now I am sure someone has messaged you. You have checked out all the right places to start. I don't know where you live...but, you can look up section 8 housing on line and find the info for your State and County. Yes, most everyone on here, came here looking for help. Just like yourself. Many stayed to offer friendship and services they have found that might help others. Some of us check in from time to time and try to help in what ever way we can.
I know it is frustrating to feel so alone, but there are still resources available if you qualify. You have taken the first steps. You have shown interest in 31 pages so far and they are good pages! Good Luck and just be persistent & keep searching & asking. But let people know WHERE you live. Just the State and County.

Help! I need help on bills. I've been disabled for some time now (I had a stroke). I have a couple of bills that have gone into collections, and I was talking to a collector recently who mentioned these resources. If it's possible I would like to get these bills paid off. There are a couple that are $2000 and not being able to work to pay these off has become a problem. I don't make enough with disability to make payment arrangements in order to pay these off. I'm considered permanently disabled. I want to work, but because of the tremor I have in my left hand and very limited use of it, I'm not able.
I am a single mom I have two sons ,one typical developing an the other a special needs teenage son. We have been poor an struggling for years..but it seems to be getting tighter an tighter an harder on us. I use to think we were poor ..but everything is tighter now then ever has been. we dont have tv turned on..(no cable or direct tv no tv shows at all.

I lost my house and we have to be out by September the 18th 2011, We have been blessed with another home to move to, but after I pay first months house payment and lawyers fees, I will not be able to afford moving expenses. We receive Social Securtiys Survivor Benefits as I am widowed with 3 boys with special needs, FASD, Tourettes and Crystal Meth with FAE. I have tried to find a way, even trying to sell my personal possessions, to make the money we need for moving. I need help, or we will lose the rest of everything we have left. Ps I am a covering and modest dressing Christian woman.
I am also a diabetic with onset of Osteoporosis, so I cant lift a lot of heavy things. Our new home is 5 hours away in the UP of Michigan near Marquette, I have only two options, have someone rent us a truck and drive it for us, or have a self move company bring a trailer here and we can pack it ourselves and they will move it, either way we are talking $1500.00 with a Uhaul or Budget Rental (including gas) or $1780.00 with the Upak from UPS Freight. I have called everywhere, churches, salvation army, St. Vincent De Paul, DHS, I am at a dead end, Please , Please, Please, can someone help us! We just want to get out of here and into our new home.
I see it's been awhile since your profile page was created. I hope things are better for you, like your car, rent, your son's tempermant, etc. I, too am seeking solutions to my car, and better job issues.
That is so awful.. I'm so sorry.. That poor baby, I know a similar thing happened to my ex and his daughter when he left her with the mother and her newer boyfriend at the time.. I'll never understand people who hurt their babies, I'm a parent myself and lord knows it can be more than frustrating from time to time, but I think it takes a person with some serious hate inside to not be able to set the baby down somewhere safe and walk away.. I am so sorry that you and your son will have to live with this for the rest of your lives, lord knows everyone deserves a chance at a normal life and it truly hurts to know that someone tried to take that gift from a baby.. I wish I knew your general area, I have been able to find a few links here and there for some people I have come across and would love to try to do the same for you, I also had seen something about a site for charity cars on another members page, I'm actually going to try to find that link right now so I can add it to this comment before I post it..
http://do-you-need-a-free-car-this-is-no-joke-it-s-very-real.lcollver.aidpage.com/?cid=782979#comment782979
That will lead you to the thread people have been discussing on it, and also to the link to the actual page I do believe.. I live in a rural area myself and know that in order to get anywhere it takes a vehicle and with the price of gas it is exceptionally rough.. I'm lucky and blessed enough to have a hand me down truck that my parents gave me when my car broke down, but I'm still working on getting the money to get it insured.. I hope some of this helps, and if you have access to a computer often or even through a library like me, you can always try to look up some links and resources.. I also believe that your child will qualify for medicaid and SSI which may help as it would be money in hand and could possibly help with finding you transportation to and from a doctors office for his needs, and in some cases if you are able to find a ride, some plans may reimburse you for the mileage that it takes you to get him there.. Good luck and best wishes.
i been mad at the state of michigan child sappart they took my child sappart away because my boys father is geting disabilaty and my boy is geting disabilaty under his fathers disabilaty thats all hes geting from his father i dont think its right he sould pay more money out for his child
Nice to see more good inforation. Why not visit "how are you today" where most of the main traffic goes. I guess with as many times that you have visited Aidpage you will see all the postings, anyway.Just wanted to stop by and say Howdy Neighbor and Welcome.
I would stay with the job since you have one. But when you decide to go to school I have a post of scholarships that most don't know about. While you are there if you go to look there are other post that should be of help to you. Good Luck and God Bless
in response to shotcaller69...You aren't going to want to hear this but the truth of the matter is that there are few grant that are for personal uses.You have to get a non profit to help you .and that takes a long time both to write it up and to get it. Aidpage has a sister site that has two programs that help you if you still choose to try first one is foundations; www.grantgate.com and the other you can tell from the title: www.thefederalmoneyretriever.com. Both are free , it helps guide you and tells you what you need to know.
While you are working on your project visit my homepage . I have several pages of information that will be of help to you. then I would advise to visit some of the other Aidmates here on Aidpage and they will do their bst to help you also.
in response to Schmidty...yes i need to know where i can go for a grant for being a single mom...i am really down and out at this time and the bills just keep piling up. I do work however my previous bills are going to shut me down in the present please someone guide me!!
I'm not sure if you're one person or a foundation of some kind. I'm on your page now; however, it's not clear who I'm speaking with. The name: Nobody's Someone is remarkable. Whoever thought of this name is creative and talented in my opinion. Nobody's Someone has an emotional catch to it! Caused me to take a pause!

Reply to randallp:--My dear friend, my heart goes out to you as I too have a grandaugher that is autistic and is only 4 years of but functions on a 2 year old level and has a speech problem so bad that the only one that can understand her is her mom. You stated that you are having trouble with employment, does that mean you are working? Hve you applied for help from DSHS as they will not only provide daycre while you workd but your child will be taught by an autistic specialist and will be seen on a regualr basis by a Doc. They also provide a home worker that will come in to your home anywhere from 16 to 35 hours a week to work with your daughter. It sounds like your giggest problem is daycare for your daughter by someone who has expereince in autistic children. If you haven't already please either look up autisum in the dictionalry but the ideal information would come from the computer and all you have to do is just gooogle the word "autism" and you will get pages of information as well as phone numbers and address's. Your line of work is spicific to construction but where I live here in Washington Stae the economy is lifing and we are witnessing more and more houses being built. So do not give up, In the news last night the announcer was saying that the NOrthwest and east coast would be llikely to feel the effect of a stronger economy so I will be praying for you ..Actaully, would you be much better off it you could just find a caregiver and a school that fit your daughters needs., right? Be sure and let me know what you found in google...OK? I will be praying for your success...sincerely mamashe/sheshe
First, stop getting pregnant. You can't take care of someone else's life until you can your own. Secondly, you have been clean for less than a year; you can't expect change to happen so soon. One day at a time, one decision at a time, things will start to change but YOU have got to work at it everyday.
Try to find two jobs. Stay busy and save some money. Earn back the trust people have lost in you all those times you let them down and they will forget. LOVE YOURSELF. (Subscribe to a parenting magazine and call your local child services agency and ask about free parenting classes. The YWCA in your area might help as well.)
Today, my car died. Dad said the engine is blown and I have nothing in the bank and not even a real job. I just turned 33. I'm a single mom of an awesome little boy with adhd and autism. I am a long time sufferer of depression and enxiety and a domestic violence survivor. I stopped working almost 2 years ago when my son was expelled from daycare. We have so many appointments between the two of us that I couldn't hold down a full-time job. Then I couldn't hold down a job at all. I live with my parents who both work. But how we're going to get to our doctors and therapists now - I have no idea. I'm scared. Can anyone point us to some help?
You know I'm an awesome seamstress it's one thing I am great at...I only need to figure out financing and a committed group to make it work. The great thing is it could be done
