Hello, Instead of a long lengthy letter I decided to bulletize the significant events of the past 12 years. To give you a feeling of the dark cloud that I can’t seem to shake no matter how hard I try, believe, and work.  Thank you, for reading my page.

  1. Inter-Cranial Bleed (Stroke) 6 days after birth of third child. Cause not known or found. (1997)
     a. Had to learn how to read, write, talk and see again. Left with cognitive problems.
  2. Cervical fusion #2, cause of problem? Not known (1998) Fused in neck.
  3. Best I can tell based on credit report I reviewed in 2005, husband having affair. My credit report had her address as one of my addresses.(2000)
  4. Daughter caught cutting and trying to hurt herself. (2002)
     a. Both she and I spent a lot of time in counseling dealing with and over coming this.
  5. Mini-stroke, still didn’t know husband was having affair but kids did. (2003)
  6. Found out had treatable STD, husband still in denial.  Didn’t think I could make it on my own with the kids. Stroke takes all your confidence away and doesn’t give it back easily. (2003)
  7. Another mini-stroke. No known cause. (2004)
  8. Feb 2005
     a. While on family vacation, Grandfather dies on Valentine’s Day. (Feb)
     b. Positively learn husband having affair. (Feb)
     c. Filed for Divorce. (Feb)
     d. Sold House. (May)
     e. Bought House. (May)
     f. Divorce final, Car died, and I bought new one. (Sep)
     g. Hit head on by pickup truck and broke my back.  (Dec 15 2005)
  9. 2006 two spinal surgeries to put titanium cages, rods, plates and screws in back to make it stable.
  10. 2006 sixteen year old pregnant with grandchild.
  11. 2009 4 in 1 surgery to correct internal problems.

I have had several failed attempts at home based business. I keep looking trying to find one that fits someone like me with my cognitive problems and situation but nothings worked yet. I continue to work full time and will until the day I die if I have too. Your contribution to my children and I can help pay off expenses created by this cloud.

I have set a lofty goal of 6 months to raise enough money to pay off my second mortgage and medical expenses $104,000 (this is only two loans not including primary mortgage, credit cards, and car payment).  I am swallowing my pride and asking for your help.  Any size donation to this very grateful humbled, and nice divorced mom of three with a grandson who’s had a stroke and four total spinal surgeries would be greatly appreciated. Please accept my sincere thanks.

PS:     Any size donation is appreciated. Thank you for your generosity and  caring. Please know the signs of stroke
