Is This For Real??

Apr 18, 2012
Last week I was all over the internet looking for some way to make extra money God knows we all need to survive, and what is truly in ones heart, knowing in mines that I have to much at this given time to deal with like any other. Well, needless to say it was one advertisement after another and after filing so many of those dag garn things out hoping to be a "WINNER" lol; somewhere on something I found myself falling asleep at the pc. As I awaken I hear myself praying "I really need and I really deserve' I recieve a phone call the next morning preying on my everyday living as a human being and boom there it is the next buisness day that I truly recieve 2 checks in my name for almost a thousand each "ARE YOU SERIOUSE "asking myself, Boy, I should have known the devil was going to try to walk his way in once I said , hoping, and a praying for a better way to live and as we all need bills paid whats better than having the money to do so? I was always told growing up that money was the root to all evil and I have always lived a life of "poor" some would call it. Today I am glad of that poor old life for if it were any richer I would completely forget what means the most to me and others.

Minnesotaangel64 needs Emergency Assistance

Jun 14, 2008

I hate asking people for help in any way. I am the one who is always there to help other people when they need it. I volunteer regularly and for many events I do fundraising.

Now the time has come for me to reach out to others and lower my pride and ask for help. I lived with roommates that moved out. I was left with huge utility bills.  I am on housing assistance (it took me 3 years to get on this program and I can loose it if I get totally shut off.  I am also on RSDI- because I am disabled.

Every program or agency I have turned to, has turned me away due to funding issues.They have already shut off the gas 3 weeks ago. I just had a minor surgery for a MRSA  Staph Infection. I will have major surgery for it the end of July.

I need to soak in the bathtub and it has been just awful with cold water, but I can handle that. What I am having trouble with is now the electric company is coming Monday to shut off the electric I have a breathing machine that needs the electric to run for my lung disease. I am scared and have no idea what to do now.

The gas bill is $469.00 (xcel energy)   The electric bill is  $375.00 (connexus) The water bill is $257.16(city of forest lake). I am willing to show the bills to anyone who is willing to assist me.

 I am hoping there is someone out there that can assist me with at least the electric bill. Someone suggested I go to Modest Needs.I did  and they cannot assist me. They don't accept faxes or papers mailed in, you have to scan documents to them and I cannot find access to  one.

Thank you.
