Hi, I’m Shannon. I’ve never done anything like this before. I’ve been trying everything in my might to come up with a 2nd and 3rd income with no luck. But I need some extra money and I’m struggling so bad.
It’s been hard for a while, especially the last few years since my divorce. I was a stay-at-home mom for almost 20 years. I took care of our kids, the home, the pets, the husband, the lawn, and errands. It’s been 8 years, and I’ve been working my fingers to the bone, at times 75 hours a week, to pay rent and my bills. At my age, it’s hard to find a good-paying job after staying home for so many years.
While I stayed home, my health went neglected, and so did my dental care. And I now have a car that I’ve gone 2 winters with no heat and a busted windshield. I’ve got medical bills I can’t afford to pay, and my student loan is about to start. My husband promised me we would pay for that with our income tax year after year, but he never let me use it to pay it, and interest piled up. I had a medical emergency my 3rd semester and had to drop out but still owe the money. I know I owe that, and I’m not asking for anyone to help me pay that.
But if anyone is feeling generous, as I am so overwhelmed to the point of maybe leaving everything behind and living in my car… If anyone would like to help in any way so I can have warmth in my car by October or November 2025 or so I can get to the dentist because I have 3 back molars crumbling and owe $500 for a heart monitor, $250 on an ER visit. I was quoted $2,000-$3,000 for the heater core in my car but found a guy, if he’s still true to his word, can fix it for under $1,500.
Don’t feel pressured. I’m not begging. I’m embarrassed I even did this. I just thought I would give it a try since I’m really struggling. If nothing else, please keep me in your prayers. I know a lot of us are struggling, so don’t feel bad. I can’t donate to every cause. I try when I can. God bless and thank you for just reading this if you made it this far. Thank you so much!
