Missed Work For Emergency Surgey: Need Electricity Help
My Story:
I am a single mother of three wonderful children. My 12-year-old son is very kind and loving and he has a passion for basketball and football. My daughter, who just turned 9, is very energetic and suffers from ADHD and she is a very bright girl who enjoys art, building things, and animals. My 5-year-old son follows in his big brother's footsteps, and shares his passion for sports. He also loves to help others. I am currently working as a fulltime administrative assistant, and attending school fulltime for my bachelor's degree.
On a typical on I am able to afford all of our basic needs, but my finances are always tight as we live paycheck to paycheck since. In May, I was called by my doctor and informed that I needed to have a hysterectomy, due to some medical issues I had been in treatment for. My surgery followed a couple of days later and because of such short notice I was unable to properly plan for the lost income. Having my surgery has not only created a financial bind, but it has had a huge impact on my family's life and mental health. My Family needs Modest Needs' help to pay our electricity bill.
Receiving this funding will help to bring our household current on our electric bill, and it will reduce the stress that we have endured since my surgery. This will be a positive step in our journey to regain financial stability. Your help would have an extreme impact on our family! When I am able, I try to help others who are in need and receiving your help will show my children that there are others out there like me that like to make a difference in others' lives.
