can' find work need help with  house hold items

I am in desperate need of help paying my $244.85 electric bill. I wouldnt be asking if it wasnt for a desperate need. I had to fix my transmission on my truck and that required purchasing a used transmission and having it installed. I couldnt afford a new one because they were so expensive. I was lucky to find one at a junk yard that worked well and was able to get my boyfriend to put it in. Right after that someone vandalized the windshield in my vehicle and dented in the passenger side door. I wouldnt have gotten my vehicle fixed if it wasnt for all the dr appointments we have for the kids and my poor health issues I am having now.
The problem is, after I made my rent this month, I do not have any money leftover to pay the light bill. I desperately need help in getting this bill paid. I have 4 small children who need electricity. I have asked for an extension for two weeks to come up with the money. I am unfortunately not going to have what I need to pay the bill because of the repair. Can anyone help me pay for this bill? The electric company is Progress Energy and I can send you the account number if you want to pay it online or over the phone. I believe online it is a 5.95 convenience fee or you can pay at Amscot / other bill place that accepts those payments. Thank you so much!!

Our family will pray that you receive the help you require. I apologize that this all we can give.

I am a 31 year old woman who is in desperate need of weight loss that works. I have a beautiful 2 year old baby boy whom I gained 60 pounds during and after my pregnancy with. I have tried every diet out there and have been unsuccessful. I work 3rd shift so its hard to stay focused. I have developed high blood pressure due to this weight gain. Anyone have a plan or diet that worked well and can share it with me?

My Mom has stage iv cancer. It is very aggressive and we just found out that it has grown in size and spread to more areas of her liver. She is also having trouble eating because of the cancer in the esophagus. She has much more pain, more dental issues, and chemo can't be started either until the dental work is done. I thought we had this taken care of, but the dentist that offered to do it at cost now says we still have to pay for the anesthesia and it is almost $3000.

I have raised a lot so far but we are still far short of the mark and we're running out of time. We still need $1287.50. This chemo is the only chance she has of living longer. I am requesting any amount donation you can afford to give to help hurry this process up so we can at least have a chance of it going in remission. An operation is not an option. I have contacted her church where she was the secretary for years. They are telling all the members about this website and this posting. Anything you can afford, even just $1 would be appreciated. Please, I know this is a tall order, but my father died when I was 3 and I and my kids are all she has. I want to save my mom's life. Thank you in advance for your consideration. God Bless.

Dear lashandared.

I'm sorry to read about your unfortune.
Right of...I am unable to help you with funds, and even though this might be totally out of the question for the time being, have you concidered moving?

In most countries in Europe you would have free medical, and in some countries also free dental.
Maternaty-leave is paid in full for up to one year, and if your illness requires warmer climate than what's in your country, the government will send you to e.g. Spain, Mediterranien, Malta, Turkie or likes for only a small fee.
In most countries in Europe work is available, education is good and lots of americans have already discovered this fact, and is now living in most major cities.

Even though this might be impossible for the time being, it most certainly could be well worth conciderating.

All the best to you and your child.

Hello this is a first time thing for me, and i need serious help. I am a 24 yr old single mother. I am a full time college student, trying to get a degree to help me financially. I have had serious stomach problems since the age 13. Going to numbers of docters and having outragous emergancy visit, no one has been able to tell me whats is wrong with me up until August of 2007. I have been diagnosed with Chrons disease.I have been trying to pay off some of these outragous bills and when i pay one, ten more follow there after. I have been turned down for loans, do to my credit report, and the funny thing is, the only thing on my report is over $10,000 in medical bills. Not credit card bills or anything else like that. just medical. If there is anyone out there who can and is willing to help me, please. I really am trying to make a better future for my child as well as myself.I will greatly appericate any kind of help. Thank You
