I'm not the kind of person who asks for much, and especially not money. I'm usually the one fundraising to help out others. But now I find myself in a real dilemma. If you know anything about the state of Michigan, we've been in a one state recession for over a year now. In April of 2006 I lost my job. My husband has not worked since 2004 and is legally disabled. While he gets disability, it's not much. His medications alone cost almost $200.00 a month. And last September he was hospitalized for 11 days. We have over $20,000 in debts I am trying to pay. I finally found a part time job, but it doesn't even cover my housing & utilities. More often than not, we have to scrounge bottles & cans in order to be able to buy food. I live in a single wide, 30-year old mobile home. I was fortunate enough to get the county where I live to provide new doors for me last year but now there's a huge split in my kitchen floor. Of course there's no insurance on the home or my truck. I pray every time I drive back & forth to work that nothing happens. If anyone can find it in their heart to make a contribution, I would be forever grateful. And just as soon as I am back on my feet, I will pay it forward and monitor this site to see who I can help. I do have a paypal account and you can email me at quiltbugg8972@yahoo.com. Thank you for listening and for your kindness. God Bless!
