in response to ivetty...We never did recieve help for Christmas, but thats ok..the kids and us just cooked cookies, brownies, and cakes and brought them to the nursing home for the elders..So instead of getting gifts, they gave gifts and were very happy. The meaning of Christmas isnt gifts, its love and giving as Christ gave his life for us. Thanks to everyone who wanted to help but couldnt.May your New Years be blessed with joy.

With so many others needing help, I feel unworthy of asking, but the welfare of my family prompts me to try. I am in need of help with our electric bill
I had surgery on my foot two weeks ago for an on the job injury. While I am receiving workers comp, it is not enough to cover everything. I am the sole supporter of my husband and my 90 year old mother who lives with us. My mother fell 3 weeks ago and has a wedge fracture of her L3 vertebrae. My husband is caring for both of us and he is just recovering from cancer. I make too much to qualify for public assistance and it is only for another month ot two. Our electricity will be shut off unless I can come up with $240 by the 28th. It is our only source of heat. Does anyone know where I can get help? Thank uou and Merru Christmas.
merry christmas to all. christmas is set off for my family this yr. money issues.my heart fills like its breakin for my kidos. i will make christmas up to then. i just continue my faith and try to be possitive,but its really hard knowing theres nothing for them to open on x-mas.lord give us strenght to make it threw this rough spot we r facing.hopefully by the gace of god something will happin and we can celebrate christmas on new years. that would be the best way to starting the new years. anyone have any suggestion on how i can make that happin??i prey for wk soon and i prey for recovery for my aunt battleing with breast cancer. we lost my dad last yr. and i pray my mom starts to heal from that. our house is a depressing home with the things we have faced this yr.lord shine the light back in our hm.i prey for help with christmas.
in response to Tristansmommy...thank you much :) .the web site is - imikimi.com. they have all kind of diff. styles and frames. its really fun. you will have to sighn up. merry christmas and happy new years.
Zblue sent something for your daughter's Christmas.
Most people here are in need of some type of help.
I am very sorry for the loss of your son & the things your family are going through. I truly am.
I understand you are under a mountain of stress.
But, is that a reason to curse at & call innocent strangers horrible names???
I understand what its like just to feel like screaming at the world.
I get it.
I know that you need to vent.
Is there any way that you can 'vent' without name calling & profanity?
It would be much appreciated.
there is nothing obligating anyone to help here. Everyone needs help, thats what the site was set up for-to give advice and information or just to let off steam. This isnt a organization that is supported by anyone except those that CHOOSE and are ABLE to help.
YOU should be ashamed that you come here expecting something that everyone else here expects and put those down that are here trying to offer some support. If you dont like what your reading, dont come back
in response to CHRISTISLIFE...Thank you so much for your prayers, thoughts and kind words. It truly helps to know that there are people out there that DO care! I will keep your family in my prayers as well. I am sure that Christmas will be fine, in spite of the gift situation. Like my kids said, Christmas should be about our love for each other and Jesus, not the presents. Such wise lil' souls! I am sure that it will be worse on me and my husband than on them. We just feel so guilty helpless and hopeless.
Things just seem to be going from bad to worse. We just got notice that we are being foreclosed on, my husbands wages are being garnished for my medical bills, my disabiliy claim has been denied, we are unable to receive any type of government assistance because my husband insists on working, case worker actually told me to tell him to quit and they could help, HA! Isn't that crazy? Our system at work, help those who won't help themselves, but screw the honest hard working citizen that can't make ends meet.
Okay, I'm done ranting. Thanks again for the note and God Bless, you and yours!

I WANTED YOU TO KNOW, THAT MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU & YOUR FAMILY. I TRULY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH. I AM A MOTHER OF 5 BOYS WITH HEALTH ISSUES, TRYING TO GET MY DISABILITY. I AM BEHIND ON OUR RENT, MY CAR IS BROKEN DOWN & I CAN NOT GET IT FIXED & I AM BEHIND ON THE CAR NOTE, EVEN MORE THAN THAT, I HAVE NOTHING AT ALL FOR MY 5 BOYS FOR CHRISTMAS AND THIS IS ACTUALLY 2 YEARS IN A ROW, THAT THEY HAVE HAD NOTHING. IT BREAKS MY HEART ESPECIALLY FOR MY 8 & 12 YEAR OLD SONS. MY 16-17 & 18 YEAR OLD SHOULD UNDERSTAND A LITTLE MORE. MAY GOD BLESS YOU NOW & FOREVER & I PRAY THAT CHRISTMAS WORKS OUT FOR YOU ALL.
We need a Christmas miracle! Two days before Christmas and we have no presents for our children. We have a 10 yr old son and an 8 yr old daughter. We have focused so hard on keeping our home from going into foreclosure, that we haven't been able to buy a single gift. And all for nothing because we were served with forclosure papers this week afterall. I've explained the situation to the children and they both say they understand and everything will be okay. They are such good kids, they deserve at least a little something for Christmas. If you are able to help I would be so thankful to you for brightening my babies holiday. Please contact me at cblack28@insightbb.com I am at my neighbors using Internet so will check messages often. God, please hear my prayers for a nice Christmas for my kids. In Jesus name I pray Amen. God bless you all!

Thank you zblue, your package arrived this am. Brought tears to my eyes. Out of all these people on here you were the ONLY one that cared, and that mean't a lot to me. i am 52 yrs old, and the only thing i know is to help those who cannot help themselves!! And i will continue to do that when i am mentallly up to par, right now i am grieving in a very bad way, again thank you so much, god bless you and yours, and when things return to normal i will be sending some money your way, because that is what i want to do. Before my son was killed, and my hubby was working, we made over 100,000 a yr. so i will be more then happy to return your favor. may you have a great holiday. and for the rest of you, i will let god handle you all. This is rose, the angel that you helped, and she said to tell you, she loves you.
I know it is short notice. but I just found out today that you can call 311 for a listing of toy giveaways and santa parties all over. also a listing of the churches that are giving toys for tots as well. oh yeah FAO shwartz is giving toys away too. ANYBODY WHO IS on Public Assistance, you can ask your worker for a listing. they are equipped with that information. I hope this information will be helpful to all of you who are looking to make a nice christmas for your babies which they all deserve. Remember God will always make a way out of NO WAY. : ) God Bless You.. and love yall. : ) Merry Christ mas.....
I'm sorry to take your time.I've always been been self sufficient and now it's hard to ask for help.My wife was in a bad car accident and now I'm laid off.I'm hoping for a miracle to pay our rent.I'm sorry I'm asking,better yet begging.Anyone that can help please,I pray help.Thank you.
