About Susie q

Hello everyone.  I wa sbrowsing through the internet trying to find something. My family has been hit hard . My fiance was layed off  June of last year. He was working shutdowns. Thats where you travel to different plants in different states ; cities. Anyways with all of our bills and rent we were not able to keep our rent house so we (myself, fiance, son 8, daughter 12) moved into our travel trailer. We are from a small town. So its hard to find jobs. So I started cleaning houses. Well thats ok But still not enough. My fiance has since had part time jobs but nothing fulltime. He was working cows and his horse slipped and my fiances foot went under and broke his ankle 4 times and one of the big bomes in his leg. So he is not able to work until well the doctor thinks Feb. Of next year. So here I am trying to support my family on a very low budget. School is starting and I'm not sure how I will buy there uniforms. We have cut out all the extra stuff like the cable. But it's still not enough. We have to drive an hour and a half every 2 weeks to the doctor for my fiance. It has been hard on us all. My daughter 12 is affected alot by us living in the travel trailer. She can't invite her friends over. Or much less have privacy. Well none of us have that. If anyone can help in any kind of way it would be appreciated. Even a prayer from you would be nice. God Bless

just a little hand

Hi.  My name is Theresa.  Last spring I lost my full time job.  I was in despair, but soon after my niece had her terminally ill son taken from her by Children's Services.  I was always taught that everything hsppens for a reason and figured the reason that I lost my job was so that I would be available to take custody of my great-nephew, even though I am already a widowed mother of two girls.  Things were going fine and we were managing to scrape by on a shoestring budget and lots of love.  Skyler (my sick nephew) required round the clock medical attention and lots of hospital stays, so working at the time wasn't really an option.  Some how by the grace of God and support from family and friends we managed.  Unfortunately, my land lord decided to sell our home and we were left with no place to go.  My parents, being the angels that they are, moved from their home into my sister's and allowed the three children and me to move into their house.  I have since aquired home nursing care for my nephew so that I could go back to work, but I had to take a job that pays much less than my previous job.  I am trying to go back to school to become a respiratory therapist, but right now finances just don't allow that.  Any help anyone would be willing to give would be greatly appreciated.  Sometimes I feel like I screwed up all of our lives just by trying to do the right thing.

I am just trying to raise two of my own daughters and help out my terminally ill great-nephew and my niece at the same time.  I took custody of Skyler last year when he was taken from my niece by the local CYS.  Skyler suffers from SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy) Type 1.  He truely is one of God's sweetest angels.  We are so grateful for every day that we have with him.  He just celebrated his second birthday in June, which is a small miracle in itself since most SMA babies don't live to be one.  My niece has worked so hard to get her life back on track and be a good mother for Skyler, but needed a little more help, so I also moved her in with me.  I do work full time and would love to go back to school to become a respiratory therapist which would benefit Skyler as well as myself and my daughters.  Just trying to find the funds is very difficult.  I iwould like to cut back to part time work so that I could go back to school and have time to spend with the kids (because they are my life), but there is no way we could get by on a part time income.  I guess I'm just looking for a litle advice and a lot of prayers.
