no more posts from anyone that has negative things to say. I do not need any negative , hurtful things written. I am going through enough. If you dont have something decent to say, please dont say it at all.

I really wish I could answer that question for you..

[ginwoman]

could you ask your landlord for an eviction notice so you can present it to Social Services and get the ball rolling? How about going to the Social Security office in person on a day they are nearby and apply right then and there? When I did that with a family member of mine who was having (and still is) serious medical and financial issues it didn't take long before they were helping him out. Best of luck to you with everything.

He is still on a feeding tube but I stayed with him at the hospital and learned all I could in order to have him home with me and my other son. Unfortunately, Donny will never meet his Daddy because he passed away on Dec 18th 2008. Our problem is that I have cleaned my savings acct to continue to pay rent etc. I am wondering if anyone knows of any place or person that will help us. I have been to Catholic Charities, no funds. I have been to Social Services, must have an eviction notice. I have tried Salvation Army, several churches etc...I am the sole caretaker of my son. I have applied for benefits from his Dads passing and disability for him through Social Security but unfortunately, his interview is not until the end of this month. Honestly, I am having a hard enough time dealing with everything, I am trying to be strong. Now I am almost one month behind on rent and I cant get any help. I have always worked and paid taxes. I have took people in my home that needed help before, I will do anything for anyone. Why is there no help for people in bad situations that they honestly did not put themselves in?

What hospital is your son in??

Could you be a little more specific as to details, and exactly how far behind you are and how much you need?

I am the cynical one..

Can I get my appointment sooner with social security. They told me that was the earliest that they had. Thank you for responding. That means a lot

I'm living in the basement at my sisters house unemployed. Lost my house and my job. Had to sell my car to pay off some bills. Sleeping on a mattress on the floor. Got my two boxers.

Steadily looking for a job. Can you help a brotha out?

Point is, the economy is hitting everyone. Thanks Obama! Love ya Bro~!

Since when do you need an appointment for Social Services?
