Full story
I've spent over 30 years working as a waitress, serving others, working long hours, and doing my best to take care of my family. I've never been someone who finds it easy to ask for help, but right now I could really use a little kindness. Recently, my son was hit by a car while walking, and the driver never stopped. He suffered a broken leg, has no health insurance, and is unable to work while he recovers. I've stepped in to help him financially, spending approximately $1,500 during this unexpected emergency. Like so many hardworking people, I live paycheck to paycheck. I'm still current on my mortgage, car payment, and insurance, but helping my son has left me struggling to keep everything together. I'm asking for $5,000 to help recover from the unexpected expenses and give me a little breathing room with my upcoming bills and my son's recovery I'm not looking for someone to change my entire life or solve all my problems. I just want to get through this difficult time without falling behind on the things I've worked so hard to maintain. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I truly believe a little kindness can make a huge difference in someone's life.
