I'm 18 & I'm 7 months pregnant, I live w/ my mom, 2 brothers, & my sister...the only one working is my sis, working at McDonalds only getting like $400, $500 a month if we are lucky, & we unfortunatley live in a small/crappy town w/ no opprotunity & no help & are struggling. We have to pay outragious electric bills that are $300-$600 a month, which is so hard, especially when we don't have it...we have to scrape & scramble each month in fear that we will lose power, it's especially scary now, it being so hot...the thought of not having power, no way to escape this awful/deadly heat...it's especially hard on me, being pregnant...our ac is already out as it is, & I am sure I would have been dead by now if it wasn't for me having a fan to cool off a bit, which some days it doesn't do much, the heat is just so overwhelming. Yea, our ac is also out, every 2 weeks we always have bills to pay, food to buy n stuff...we never have any money left over to take care of these problems. Also, our truck, the only source of transportation is breaking down. If we lose our truck, the thought of it is just too scary/frightening to think about...how my sis would lose her job, we wouldn't be able to buy food or anything...we would surley die off. Also, my baby will be here in the next 2 months or so, & I barley have anything for him. It is really depressing for me that I wont be able to have anything for my child, the way things look...I wont be able to get a car seat so I can take my baby home! So as you can see, we are truly struggling, my dad left in September/October last year...& things have been down hill...awful ever since. We have went weeks w/out power b4 cuz we couldn't pay the bill(thank God it was cooler then & it wasn't as rough, now losing power is life threatening), we go most weeks pratically starving(still now even, & it scares me cuz of my baby...not being able to give my baby what it needs to grow, I so so don't want to lose him). So please, if anyone out there has a heart, compassion for a family who is indeed really strugling/needs help really bad...please, let me kno. Any kind of money you can spare, baby stuff you can spare...please...PLEASE, help us! You can send me a message at wicked_monkey_jester1722@yahoo.com God bless...
