Please help us. Have cancer and young children
I am broken and begging you from the bottom of my heart to please help me and my children. My children are 10, 8, and 3. My 8 year old is non-verbal autistic, and I am in the process of getting social security benefits for her. That will help so much, but we don't have it yet. I am undergoing chemotherapy for my third recurrence of breast cancer. Private disability has run out, and we are going to be homeless next month without help. I can't believe I am actually writing this, begging from strangers. With my head hung, please, please, please help me. We will need $3000.00 to keep my children together and with me, in small but clean, suitable housing with electricity, water, and food. They are already dealing with so much, and I am so desperate. The three thousand dollars will be enough to keep us together until the end of this round of treatment and hopefully to when social security starts for my daughter. Please know I am so grateful for the fact you are reading this and considering helping me and my babies. The despair in my heart is so crushing.
Kidney transplant help
Hello I am 35 years old and this is my situation.
In 2008 I started a new job as a plumbing and heating engineer working in my local Zoo, It was a good job I enjoyed it very much. In the October of 2008 I began to experience very bad leg cramps that would wake me from my sleep and I was unable to stop them for several hours, I put in down to the amount of walking I walked everyday during my days work . As the weeks went on I began to dislike the taste of food then sweets(cakes, chocolate etc.) all I was able to stomach was milk and bread. In December 2008 on the 18th I began to feel very sick my cramps were bad I had terrible itching, all food was horrible to me I carried on working as this week was my shift to cover the Christmas period, on the 23rd of December I began to throw up after every time I urinated. apart from the Cramps, itching, dislike of food and throwing up I felt ok just weak. On the 25th I was unable to eat anything and was told I look dead, I should go to hospital to which I said I will be fine, on the 26th I had no choice I had to go to hospital. I arrived to hospital and told them how I felt and that I had lost 10Kgs in a week, within 20 mins I was on a drip, blood taken and taken to a ward. The next day the doctor came and told me I have kidney failure, for the next 2 years I was on dialysis to which my body did not take very well I would become unconscious almost every session of 3 times a week. I spend several stays in hospital with blood infections and a low blood count(haemoglobin). After two years I was able to have a transplant from my brother. I began to recover after 3 months I asked the doctors if I would be able to find a job and work again to which he replied yes. I began to apply for all jobs I could find I had several interviews that went great until they asked two questions, first what is that on my arm which is a fistula for dialysis, second why have I not worked for over two years and when I explained about dialysis, but I have had a transplant and am fit for work that was the last I heard from them. After 6 months of trying I decide to take and AAT accountancy course for a year, which I passed. I then started to apply for plumbing jobs and accountancy jobs with the same luck no job. Its been 3 and a half years since my transplant and my savings are gone I had to leave my house and am still unable to get employed because of my illness. I have came here as I have no where else to turn, I am looking at my future as this no one will employ me and my only choice is to start my own business. I am looking for funds to buy a van, tools, materials and to advertise my company for a period of 3 months for plumbing and bathroom installations.
If you think you are able to help me get my life back on track I would be very grateful.
I am able to provide my medical records if any potential donators require
Many thanks for any help you can offer

help needed to avoid eviction and clear debt
Michael ferguson, West london, UK, England
To whom ever it may concern, hello my name is Michael Ferguson I am 23 years old and i look to you in this moment of need. I was previously working in the retail sector in London, England in a department store known as Selfridges. Unfortunately after leaving university in 2012 i have left my self in some debt and also have over run my overdraft of -£2000. I just moved into my step dads house last august with my brother and even though we pay the rent every month since i moved in, there were errors in his rent before i moved there. now they are giving him an eviction notice to move out which will change all our living circumstances. If he doesn't pay £1600 within a few days all of us will have no where to stay. I currently lost my job at selfridges for walking off the shop floor in an emergency when at work because my grandad had an emergency operation for his cancer. This has left me with no way to help him pay the debt or the upcoming rent which will only make things worse. ive tried to get loans but i have really bad credit after occurring a ccj for a mobile phone that i did not take out when i was younger. I have recently been selling all my shoes and trainers which i had received whilst working at selfridges to get money for food, internet and phone bills, electric and gas bills, and my motor finance bill. In june of last year i took out a car on motor finance for £10,000 and have to make payments of £159 every month. by the end of this month i will not be able to afford any more payments and will most likely get the car taken from me and only make my credit worse. my insurance for the car is £121 a month which i wont be able to pay as of next month as food and rent will be priorities. I am now down to 3 pairs of shoes which i am can sell which i have posted on ebay to help. not long ago i bought a female kitten which i am now finding it hard to feed because of funds and i cant find anyone that is willing to take her off me. Because of all of these new housing laws and the price of housing in london it will be near enough impossible to get a 1 bedroom place if we lose this one.I have been desperately looking for a new job but unfortunately i have had no success. I never like to ask for help and at most only go to my parents for help, but when my parents can't help it comes a time when pride is not worth the loss of a home and all the other things close to me. My mom suffers from high blood pressure and lung problems and has been off sick at work for the last 2 months. Me my brother and my step dad have agreed to keep this away from her as it could do her worse damage which we dont want. All of this hasn't helped the situation and is stressing us all out. I am just asking for a fresh start and hope of being able to start clean. i have never asked to be rich but only to be able pay my way. Just want to know that my bills can be paid on time. I can provide any proof needed to prove my situation is real. I do not wish to inconvenience any one by asking for money but just a small portion of how much anyone may have will be a huge help.
Thank You for Your time
Yours Thankfully,
Michael Ferguson
