My husband has been out of work since Feb. 06 after hurting his back pretty bad. He is getting underpaid by Workers Comp and they have refused to pay for his physical therapy, MRI, and some meds he is on. I get SSI due to my own health problems and am awaiting another surgery. I am hoping to go back to school in January 07 to finish my degree.
We have a lawyer for the workers comp BUT things work SO slow. We thought that the underpayment for the last 9 months would have come through by now so that we could buy our girls (12, 8, and 3) Christmas and get ahead on the bills. It hasn't. We barely pay the bills monthly, always get shut off notices, hubby has had to stop PT because we can't afford it anymore, our savings were depleted from medical expenses that workers comp was supposed to pay but have yet to pay us for.
I would like to be able to get a few things for each of the girls for Christmas. I am trying to get help locally BUT we make too much ($600 too much a month but NO ONE adds in the costs of the medical we pay out of pocket! just rent & elec are counted as expenses).
So, I came across this site and am asking if there are any people out there wanting to adopt a family for Christmas my girls are such good kids. They really deserve a good Christmas this year. My oldest won't even ask for anything because she knows we are broke. Makes me sad! She just wants her sisters to get something. She even offered her birthday money to me to buy gifts for her sisters from Santa.
I understand if you can't help my family but thanks for reading of my situation.
God Bless
