When the going gets tough, the tough get going?? Sometimes we need help beyond what we are able to do ourselves. I have found myself at this cross roads in life.

My son and I need to relocate to Michigan as soon as possible but need financial help to do so. My resources are limited so I really need help to make this happen for him. I am actively saving, saving, saving but on a fixed income that makes it a long process but I'm sticking to the "plan".

My ex husband is currently in the hospital with a large tumor *3 tumors in left lung and cancer throughout his body* He also has a pulmonary embolism which is compressed by one of the tumors and the embolism could rupture at any time. He has lung cancer and is terminal in the final stage and only expected to live for one month or less. The doctor wants him to go into the hospitals hospice for care in his final days due to the seriousness of his situation. He is going to die at anytime, it is just a matter of time and heartbreak for my child. I can provide information if necessary to confirm the situation.

Where we live we have no family or emotional support. My twelve year old son wants to go back to Michigan where we do have the emotional support we need and the love family and friends can provide for him. I am here for him 24/7 but it is still very difficult just being the two of us.

It would be such a blessing if maybe someone could help financially so that we can move and make this happen! Any little bit would be a blessing and appreciated beyond belief. I am currently collecting money orders and putting them away to save the money up that is needed to move. The UHaul is $989. for a 10 foot truck, $129.00 for the truck insurance plan and gas, food and hotels while traveling. I am only taking what we absolutley must have which does not include large furniture only the things we cannot part with. Well enough of my moving woes and rambling. Just hoping for help I guess is the entire point. :)

I am saving all the money I can but it just isn't enough to move from the Seattle area to the upper peninsula of Michigan. Please understand our situation and prayers would also be appreciated.

Never in a million years should anyone's child go through what my son is enduring and all I want is for him to be happy and emotionally stable with support of loved ones.

From my heart to yours, Thank you for any help offered.

Please Help!!!! I miss my baby.

I first came to this site in seek of some kind of direction. I was a sigle parent who worked full time and wanted to make the best life I possibly could for my little girl and myself.  I had finally rented us a guest house where I could finally be the mom and we could have our own space.

Then on Dec. 12 the worst thing that could possibly happen. It was the day that the moving truck was going to come and move us into our new house. I felt like I was on top of the world. I had anything and everything I could have possibly wanted at the time.

I had woke up to my daughter dead in my arms. She just died in her sleep. There so far is no cause of death and her death is still unknown t why God would have choosen my life to rip out from underneath me. I dont have any other children and cant. I need help with the funeral and buriel. I dont know what to do. Or where to look for financal help.  We all need a helping hand from time to time, and that’s the position I am in right now. If anyone would like to make a donation to help this family, even if it’s only a $1.00, please go to https://www.paypal.com/.You will need to sign up for a PayPal account if you don’t already have one in order to make a donation and enter her email address katnbella29@gmail.com after you select the “send money” button Thank you all for your support. Inspiration.

God Bless 

Please enjoy every minute of every day because you dont know what future has in store for you :)

Hello Everyone..I'm never one to ask for help, but i'm a single mom of 2 little boys and a few hours ago i had a call that my mom has died suddenly. She lives abroad..I have'nt got the 1st penny to go to the funeral or visit them. I have'nt seen her in over 10 years mainly because of financial difficulties. I need approximately £3000 including return flights. I've asked my friends on facebook for donations but mot of them has'nt got it. Any help from you guys would be great, as i need to go there within the next 2 weeks..I pray God gives me and my amily strength. This is my Facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/j.jay.flynn . Please add me and also my email and paypal is jaysons2@ymail.com . My mobile number is 0044-7746951613. May God bless you all. Thank you.

Thank you everyone who has been so supportive. Thank you Inspiration for updateing everyone on aidpage. Please forgive my absense from aidpage, but i am also a member of FCC and in order to stay active to get help getting a car i need to log in and pay it forward so sense my internet access is limited i have been using my time on FCC.
I wanted to update everyone breifly and let yinz know i DID NOT forget you, I will be back soon...how soon,Im not sure, but I promise I will be back.
As Sherry informed everyone LaKota passed away, the doctors did everything, we all prayed and God heared our prayers...yes Im going thru so many emotions, but God heared my prayer and ended the pain. LaKota was called home so God could take care of him. He was too small and not strong enough, and was in so much pain to live here with me, but God had other plans and gave him the strength to watch over me & his Big Sister, and gave him wings!
Thank you so much everyone who has said a prayer for us, Thank you for careing and for becomming part of my extended online family.
I chose to go to a shelter where they have greivance councilers that help moms and families that have lost a child. At the shelter i have no net so I go to McDonalds Cafe to use the computers for a little bit when I can. I guess God directed me to this place for another purpose than learning to cope with the passing of my son. The one pastor runs a private Halfway/Transitional houseing (his church owns a few houses and apartments), well after meeting with him durring my counciling sessions a few times, he added me to their houseing list (normally they only offer to members or family of members of their church, I am neither) Today he walked in and asked me how soon I felt ready and capible living independant, and I told him "As soon as I get a call saying I have a home to move to." Pastor then replied with."We have had problems with people moveing in then violating the terms to the lease so I recommended offering an apartment to you, we voted and....would you be interested in haveing a safe place to call your home?" Well to shorten our very long emotional coversation, He will be going to have OCY come inspect the apartment, so I can get my daughter back from her father, and I will have a place to live :) This is ONLY short term...VERY short, my lease is for 3-6months,so hopefully I get a call from Houseing Assistance soon, but this temporary place will help. I think haveing my daughter back will help MAJORLY with my greiving. I will keep yinz updated when I can!

I am looking for donations for our 9 year old girl that we are legal Guardians of. Her Daddy passed away in October 2010 and we are having a very hard time paying for the Burial cost. He was self employed, but not very sucessful at his trade. As many young adults today, he was addicted to drugs and it finally caught up to him. The sad part of this is he left behind the sweetest little girl, and we are struggling to make ends meet since I am unemployed since August 2010. We are doing our best to get thru this trying time, and She puts on such a strong front. We have a Benefit planned to help with this and are asking for donations from companys in the area. Any Help we can get will be very much appreciated.

a friend of mine told me about this place, i dont want to try and tell some story to out do another person to get what i need. i just want to look around and see how people get help. do people really get help here or is it a place to get advice or send you to places that might help you. im just wondering im not speaking bad and please do not think that, ive seeked help for a year now and always just get blowen away like a leaf in the wind. its like help all other countries but the heck with ours. i have colon cancer, i waited to long to find out why i was hurting and bleeding. im a guy we'e stupid, always thinking the problem will go away. this is it for me. im in operable because i waited to long, they've given me 6 months to live. you know how that goes they really mean anyday. i dont know why i never got checked, i just feel like things will just go away. heres something for you believe it or not. im the type of person who has to see it to believe it. in all my life i have never dreamt about god or anything about the bible. and ive asked other people if they ever had any of anything to do with bible and i get the the same answer which is no. i find it odd because some times you dream of things that happens during a day, or a movie you watch you see my meaning right, or not. well last night i dreamed about jesus. i did not see him, i did not talk to him, i just knew he was there, the presence was so strong i just knew. i was feeling this heat radiating on my body like when you open a oven and the heat hits your skin. i believe he was telling me hell really exsist. i got up got on my knees and prayed my heart out with more fear praying to god like nothing before. i do not want to burn for eternity. hell is real friends believe me its real. im a devoted roman catholic, i disrepect no churches we're all striving to go to the same place the same god the same jesus. long as you believe you'll have eternal life. but truly i tell you there is a hell. what i seek before i die is only one thing and i want it burried with me. i wish for a rosery made very special. i cant afford it and i know this is an odd request, but from the bottom of my heart i would thank you through all eternity for getting it. i would like the rosary made of real silver, the beads rubies, and the crucifix of jesus white gold. this may not mean nothing to anyone of you but to me it means so much, as my days slowly start taking me i want that rosary in my hands to pray until its over. its my wish, if anyone could get one may jesus make you prosper to you and your families. i need to add, i have no family, i have so much stuff that i cant take with me so if someone is in need of thing s i may be able to help you. i have brand new living room furnicure, t.v.'s, stereos, any kind of household things you need it will be yours, just ask and ill tell you if i have it, if no one wants ill give it to goodwill. but goodwill will make you pay for it, from me its free. well i guess thats about it, please help me before i go, put a glitter of happiness in my heart one more time. thanks

There are many of us who have lost love ones this year. This will be my first Christmas without my mom, and my girlfriend. I spent some time today going through some of the cards and letters my mom left for me and I ran across the following poem. I do not know who wrote it, but was blessed to find it today. I hope sharing it will help some of you who have lost loved ones. I especially want to dedicate this to all those of you who were friends with my mom.

"Merry Christmas From Heaven"

I'll still hear the songs ...... I'll still see the lights,
I'll still feel your love....... on cold windy nights.

I'll still share your hopes.....and all of your cares,
I'll even remind you..... to say your prayers.

I just want to tell you......you still make me proud,
You stand head and shoulders.......above all the crowd.

Keep trying each moment....to stay in His grace,
I came here before you......to help set your place.

You don't have to be......perfect all the time,
He forgives you the slip......if you continue to climb.

To my family and friends......please be thankful today,
I'm still close beside you.....in a new special way.

I love you all dearly .....now don't shed a tear,
Cause I'm spending my Christmas with Jesus this year.

I'm looking for organizations that assist in burial and funeral expenses. Can you send me information. Houston, TX

This is not for me, it is for a family that has lost 2 children in the past 6 months to a disease HISTIOCYTOSIS HLH, they are so far in debt from all the medical bills plus the funeral costs, now they find out their 3rd child also has this disease, and the treatments are going to run 96000.00, they just can't afford it. Is there any website I can refer them to for help with the piling medical bills? It is so sad that they have to deal with the lost of 2 sons and worry about their third child on top of all the medical bills.

Today was a very sad and hard day. We live out of state and far from them so had no way to attend. We lifted them up in prayer though all day and I know in my heart that darling little Conner Jones is in heaven right now. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=309489892984 prayers please for this family who just lost their 7 yr old son to CF.
Services for him, a Celebration of Conner's life was today. I have posted where people can send a card and prayers for the family by sending them to thier church. If anyone would like to do that I know they'd be grateful.

This was a very hard day for us due to Nathan having cystic fibrosis and being so close in age to Conner. This was his little buddy that we've been praying about for months. I am thankful and also sad. Knowing them is a gift...I hate that they are having such horrible pain though and know there's so many here who've lost a child too. God bless them, and you as well.

  Hello. The following is a note my mom wrote before she went to Heaven. She insisted that I post it when the time was right. I hope you are blessed by her final post.

                                                         Susie's Son

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  My dear Aidpage friends if you are reading this post at this time I have already departed my earthly body, and now share a place in Heaven with my Father who created me.

  I have received my healing and no longer suffer with the pain I endured in this world. I am now rejoicing in the presence of God and have reunited with those who have passed on before me. My work on earth is complete and the Lord has called me home.

  When I found out I was going to die my priorities changed. There was no time for anger, depression, or self-pity. I had to focus on my upcoming journey and I made it a point to share God's love with anyone who would listen.

   When I found this site my heart broke for the many needs shared by all of you. I was also blessed by those of you I saw reach out to others in spite of your own problems. The key to encouraging ourselves is achieved when we help others. People helping people is what this site is all about, and I have been so blessed to be a part of it. I never dreamed I would find such wonderful people through the computer.

  My message to you at this time is to put the Lord first in your life. Spend time with Him and take the time to listen to the direction He is leading you. I assure you that if God becomes number one in your heart all your needs will be met and the peace that passes all understanding will become your companion. God will never force His way into your heart, but He will be waiting for you with open arms. I served the Lord for 37 years and do not regret one day of the wonderful relationship I had with God. We have a life manual called the Bible and this wonderful book is the remedy for anything that happens in our lives. In this life there will be pain, there will be problems, and there will be sorrow, but its a lot easier to go through them if you have the Lord carrying you.

  I am leaving a wonderful son behind and he is going to need your prayers. He is only 21 and the only family he has are his brothers and sisters in the Lord. I know he is going to be alright because he is in the will of God, and the Lord takes care of his children. Please, pray that the Lord will provide him with a wonderful job and that the financial situation will not overwhelm him, and pray that God will watch over him and protect him. The greatest blessing I have ever received on this earth is to have a child that loves the Lord, and I have the assurance that I will see in again in Heaven.

  I have one request to each of you and that is that you live each day as if it were your last, because none of us know when our time is over. The request is that you take the time to let those in your life know you love them. Never close your eyes at night with unresolved issues with a love one, and try to help someone every day. Remember to spend time with the Lord and be the best parent, spouse, neighbor, or friend that you can be. Our lives are all examples, good or bad, we influence those around us. Try to be remembered for the good you have left behind.

  My final prayer for you is as followed--- Father God, please, bless each any everyone who visits this site. Father use this site for encouragement, and meet the needs of those who visit. Bless my friends physically, financially, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Renew the faith of all those who visit this site, and perform miracles where needed. Father you are the God of yesterday, today, and tomorrow and I thank you that you do not change. Your love is constant and unconditional and is available to all those who seek you. Please, make yourself real to those with unbelief, and strengthen those who serve you. I pray for a special blessing on those of you who have became my friends and shared a place in my heart, that the Lord will bless you with the happiness and support you have given my son and me. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen

                                        I Love You All,

                                    See you in Heaven,

                                            Susie6      

 I joined Aidpage a few days ago. I was directed to this site for encouragement and  to seek receive financial help.I have not received any financial help so far and thats ok because I do not want anyones help unless they are lead by God to do so. I have had many of you offer encouragement and prayers. Your support means more than you will ever know.   I have been offered advise and helpful sites to go to. Those of you whose heart are really in this site shines through.

 I would like to take this opportunity to once again make clear that I do nothing without the leadership of God. This is not my first time dealing with cancer. I lost my husband to a brain tumor 3 years ago. I did deal with Hospice then and I am now. Hospice is great and they do help prepare the family for the journey ahead. I know there are organizations that help with the medical cost, but it does become a little overwhelming dealing with the cost of daily living.  I did have to quit a job I loved doing, and I have sold everything of value in order to pay the household bills.

  I do want to make clear  that even though there are times I become discouraged and worried I am still a child of God. I know that Jesus has felt the same feelings I have had, and God Himself must of cried the day they crucified His Son. I know that God wants the best for us, and I also know He understands when we become weak. It is at those times He picks us up and carries us, even if it is through the help of other people.

  Like I said earlier I do appreciate the encouragement many of you have shown, and I am trying to visit this site a much as possible in hopes of being an encouragement to others. But I do request that if you cannot be an encouragement, then please, do not respond to my blog. You may not realize how hurtful your words could be to others.

 I feel we should be here to help build each other up, and not to tear each other down. I am sure we have all heard our mothers say " If you cannot say anything nice, then do not say anything at all". God Bless Yoyu All.
