Still struggling badly, need help if you can

I have to say this again. We are still struggling. The fact of the matter is my wife still has been unable to find work. Not for a lack of trying but she is 40 and many of these bars just will not hire her because she is not that young, hot waitress she used to be. Other places, it is just the waiting game to see if she gets a call back. That has been slowed due to the holiday.

Truth is, we do not even have enough to buy baby diapers right now and need them. We have around $5 to our name and $45 on the way from a good statfox friend. I really appreciate all you have done but I have to ask again for any help you can give. I am going to give you any way you need to contact me. If you want to send diapers/money/gift cards or anything my address is below. If you want to call, my email is below and you can ask me for my number or just send me an email to say hey. If you dislike the donations site, I am putting my paypal below also. We are here, we are struggling, we love you all for what you have done so far. Please be responsible with my address. I am only putting it here because times are dire. If anyone has any job leads in Houston we are all for that also.

I love you all and thank you for what you have done. My little girl, Paige, is almost 11 months old and wears a size 3 or 4 diaper. I really feel like **** posting this but things are really rough.

Golfpro, Ragtop I will gladly take your donations if you are still around. Had to humor myself there a little to keep sane.

Thank you so much DRB. I just cannot say that in enough places or enough ways for you to understand how much that helps us. If you ever need my opinion or me to do something for you just ask. I am forever in your debt my friend. If you need me, you know my email. WOW!

Question

Mike - what is the quickest way to get cash to you?

I am not sure how your Paypal is set up (I think you could possibly get it today depending on your account setup etc.), and I have no idea how long Go Fund Me takes.

Talk to you soon.

Paypal is the quickest. I have a debit card so it is almost instant. Gofundme takes 3-5 days.

I do want to say we got the diapers handled, so Paige never had to go without a clean butt. Thanks DD.

I was sending you an email but hey. I still have to be honest about those Bears. They have to get an O Line and they only reason I am hard on them is because as you probably know deep down inside they have been lucky and are overrated by the books. I do not hate the Bears, just trying to find a weakness for everyone to exploit.

I do think they have a good shot vs Minny this week. Just key on Peterson with P. Harvin out. I would still advise a play on Minn if the line was right.

I am already prepared to say some bad things about them in future weeks so sorry in advance and thank you again!

Good deal Mike

I was hoping you would have your Paypal set up that way.

You've got mail.

Proof

I know some may think I am a fraud or something. I uploaded a few pics if you want to see for yourself that what I said is true. I just do not want anyone to have any doubt about me. You all have been kind and I am so very thankful.

I don't need any proof my man. Other people that we (I) have helped in the past did not need to prove anything, so I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

BOL to you and your family.

Some Proof

Sorry, i do not have a scanner so I took the best Pictures I can.

Rent Lease On July 1st, 2012


Wife's Termination July 2nd, 2012


Umployment denied appeal July 25th


Food Stamp benefit we recieve


Copy of One of wives Hospital Bills


Proof I am on social security


I hope this helps anyone with doubts. I can find more if you need. I also hope this lets people who have given know it was to a good cause. I cannot find my wives other hospital bill, we may have thrown it away.

These papers basically show signed lease July 1st, Got laid off July 2nd, Denied Unemployment appeal July 25th, the food stamps we recieve and who is in our household, and a couple other things. I may add a few more. Maybe this is for my own sanity.

If you want to friend me on facebook as some have it is at

Thanks so much for the help.

Our borrowed car (JUNK, expired tags, leaks tons of oil, but runs!)


Our garage (notice the missing washer and tons of dirty clothes, we broke!)


I hope that is enough, just had to show the dire **** we are in. It sucks but we live on with help from you guys.

Tex

I did do some research on that. The waiting list is at least 6 months. The thing is, we just have to make it until the end of January and my wife just has to get hired somewhere. We are very close to being there. We so badly want to stay where we are. It is nothing special but it is somewhere to live. These times will pass, I just worry about being homeless if we do not pull December rent together. If we can manage that with help we will be fine I feel. I can buy time with the landlord in January but it will not help me one bit if I am being evicted.

Thanks for the thought though. I am glad she got help.

B,

I'm so sorry to hear you are struggling like this. Unfortunately, it's the world that we live in right now. Just know that it will get better.

There are many people struggling right now in southern NJ after the devastation from Hurricane Sandy.
You just have to take one day at a time and know that one day you will look back at this and understand how much stronger a person you have become.

Wish i could help you financially. I know it took alot to swallow your pride and post this.




Life can only be understood backwords. But it must be lived forward.

I gotta say this, mainly because I am crazy.

PLEASE do not use my info/pics to do harm (we cannot afford it). I know I took a big risk putting them on here but I trust the guys and gals of this forum more than anyone. Is that crazy? To trust a bunch of sports bettors with my life! I say NO. Some would say I am nuts, well officially they have.

You guys are what is keeping me going every day and there is no community I would trust more.

Thank you all for reading and letting me take a minute or ten of your time. I apologize if I offended anyone in anyway. I may be having a **** time in life right now but I am a very good handicapper. If anyone is struggling please just read some of my posts. All that you need to win at NFL and MLB is in them. I know that. I have always been a successful bettor. My career posting here speaks for itself. I do well at CBB and CFB but that is not as systemized like my NFL and MLB plays.

And just a reminder, I am not wagering on anything right now. I only post here to help others. I kinda wish I was because I am so deep into the NFL right now. BUT I vow on my children not to place even a $2 wager until my life is completely straightened out.

I love you all if you help or not. You have done more than my own parents to help us. Kinda says how ****ty my parents are and how amazing you are. Sorry for the rant, I am nuts ya know.

DD,

Thanks bro. My pride is lost but hey I do know there is tomorrow. I just wish America could get back on it's feet again and be the nation it once was. I, like everyone, wish we could have that feeling after 9/11 back again, without the casualties. That was the greatest time I have ever lived in. I see some of that here in the help my family has gotten. Great Americans and Canadians helping their fellow man. I will never discount how great people are I just wish for better days. I know when we get back on our feet we plan to help in our area. My daughter spent her thanksgiving at an old folks home visiting with people she did not know. I am so proud of her for that.

Washer

Each year my family adopts a family in our area to help for the Holidays. This year we have decided to send some help your way. Home Depot will be delivering a washing machine on December 3rd to the address you provided above. I know you need help financially, and I hope others will provide that for you. I hate to see anyone with kids, not have a washing machine. Please email me at herbie05@yahoo.com with your phone #. When they call me about the delivery, I will have them give you a call.

I really hope this helps. I will also send a wal mart gift card to help with laundry detergent or any other needs.

Herb

Herb, I sent you this email but added our phone numbers. I just think you deserve a public thanks. Your a saint on earth in my eyes. My wife is watching and added a few words.

I just saw this. You have my wife crying, happiness for sure. My heart is all over with emotions. I am just amazed by your kindness. You have officially blown us away. My wife has been carrying what we can afford to the laundrymat for months. This is huge. Thanks is too small a word. Man, I am stunned. You are my hero. What else can I say. Here are our numbers. I am always home expect when I am at the doctor.

I do officially love you and my wife wants to thank you also. Her words are "Thank you so much, I am so tired of going to the laundrymat, I cannot even figure out how I was going to pay to do all this laundry at the laundry mat. Thank you, thank you so very much."
