Uni student in need of rent
My name is Georgie. I am a third year student at a university in England. I receive the minimum student loan which is not enough to cover my rent let alone living expenses. As well as studying for my BA(Hons) degree I work part time, which again is not enough to fund myself through uni. So inevitably I've ended up in my overdraft by some £800. Applying for extra loan has failed me since according to the government my mum and dad's income exceeds their limit been though they themselves have a house to run and other children to feed and clothe. This situation I feel is ridiculous, given I am independent of my parents with my own rented home in a city away from them.
Any help will be gratefully received and put to good use towards paying off my overdraft. Away from uni for the summer I am currently working but there aren't enough hours for me to pick up for me to make a dent in my financial situation.
Thankyou

My grandson Jaden
Operation Nana to the rescue, Toledo Ohio
I had to have my daughter committed for schizophrenic treatment a year and a half ago. She started getting voices 2 years ago this month. It has been difficult, but she is dealing with it now. She is now at home and medicated. Sometimes the voices come through the medications and torment her.
I think we have been through all of the stages of grief. It helped that I had a strong support system. A few people couldn't handle it at all. And, I don't see them anymore. At this point, I don't want to.
She is having voices this week. She calls me and wants me to tell the voices off and make them go away. They do for me. I don't know why. It seems that there is something psychiatric with these voices and not just the physical illness going on.
Anyway, to make a long story short. I took custody of my two year old grandson just recently. For the past month, I had to miss alot of work because my daughter was hospitalized. I work for a temporary agency and they have been vary supported. By letting me work part time even though my job is full time and that's the reason why I'm here on this site.
I never imagined in my entire life that I would be raising kids a second time around. But, I wouldn't have it any other way. Im just having some financial difficulties at the moment. In getting the things that he needs. So I'm just asking for a little help for him and just him. Because, I may have lost my daughters mind. I'll be damn I lose him. Thank you and God Bless

I recently had an unexpected vet visit where in I agreed to pay the bill over time. I was doing ok until I lost my job due to cutbacks. Now I owe 600 by next week or else interest will kick in. on top of that I owe 150 to ATT. I have been doing odd jobs here and there but it has not quite been enough to push me out of debt.
Anything would help. thank you
