I've been chronically ill for the last six years and unable to work. I'm waiting to hopefully get on social security but it's been a very long wait. My husband is a full time construction worker trying to make ends meet on one income. We have two children and one more on the way. Currently the only car we have is a small Ford Probe that is barely running. Come October when the new baby comes we will not have room for all of us in our car. As of right now we have absolutely no way of paying for another car and have no idea what we're gonna do.

I am an artist living in the Southern Tier area of New York. I was diagnosed with cancer last July and I'm presently recovering from successful rounds of radiation and chemotherapy. My disability payments have run out and I am unable to work. I have no present income. Not eligable for Social Security Disability because it is not permanent. Government agencies are running me in circles. Going down fast financialy. My wife is also an artist and she too is partialy disabled. Looking to find a way to stay alive selling our art. I have received grants in the past, but nothing is happening fast enough to help us in the near future. Hooking up with a good commercial gallerey or dealer could be a solution, but slides, promotional materials, etc. cost money. Any help would be appreciated.

I NEED HELP

I work 32 years in a factory. In October,2005 I had a total knee
replacement.  I was unable to work and in 2006 I signed up for my Social
Security Disability benefits and was turn down. The Doctor said that I could work,
But I was still having pain. I had to use all my money that I had saved to live on. So I went to school to learn how to drive a truck.
          In 2007  I started a job driving, but was still having pain in my knee. I drove off and on with difference trucking Companies. In June of 2008 I went to a differ Doctor with shoulder Pain and let them look at my knee. My knee cap was mess up and had to be removed, that made the 4th surgery on my knee.

To Whom It May Concern:  I am a 57 year old caregiver who was injured while preventing a client from falling.  Workmans Comp does not pay for foot or back PAIN.  I have been unable to work for almost a year.  The farthest I can walk at a time is 1/2 block, and am unable to lift more than 10 pounds.  I am the sole provider for my family.  I need help !!!!  I have never asked anyone for anything before, but now I am pleading.  I am 15 days from foreclosure on my home, everything I worked for is being taken or sold to buy food etc.  I will make a effort to repay anyone who is willing to help me.  Thank you for your time.

I am not sure if this is the proper way for me to go, but I am in need of help.  After 50+ years of paying my way I find myself in dire need after two hear attacks, one stroke and an aeorta valve replacement. I am no longrer able to draw in sufficient inome to pay my hospital bills and mortgage.  My wife is frazzled and the stress is effecting our marriage.  Can anyone offer some guideance?  I am afraid we are about to lose our house.  While I understand there are people out there who are probably in worse shape than we are, I still need an angel to assist us.

Comment: I would also like to add that...

I would also like to add that since you are unable to work due to your health, were you injured at work? You could be receiving workers compensation.

Otherwise you may be able to apply for Social security disability (SSD), or supplemental security income (SSI).

Furthermore, you may also be eligible for Social services, including, food stamps, medicaid, utility assistance (HEAP).

Additionally, you can utilize food pantries as well.

 I would also get 2nd opinion on that car. $2000 seems like an awful lot of money to repair a car that broke down.

I am a married woman in my middle forties. I have 3 kids ages 24 (daughter), 22 (son), 14 (son). I also have 1 granddaughter who is 8 months. My daughter and granddaughter live with myself and my husband. I am unemployed at this time because of my health. My husband is the only one who works in the house. His income isn't enough to make the ends meet. I hope to get a job when my health improves.

Supplemental Income due to disability

I am a 35 year old woman diagnosed with progressive rheumatory arthritis, fibromyalgia and connective tissue disorder.  I have been rendered disabled by my physician and I have applied for SSDI as well as SSI , been denied and am now appealing.  I am unable to work, it aggravates my condition and am on State Aid, however, it is not enough for me to survive or to be well.  I am seeking additional assistance in order to live healthy and independently with this health condition and lack of work.
