in response to shorty3030...Depending on your source of income, you may qualify for government subsidized housing. Are you currently receiving any government assistance now? Is the father of your children involved? I helped a lady in a similar situation find a government subsidized apartment years ago. The waiting list was long but she finally got in. Take care and God Bless!

in response to jkern2c...Your story is heartbreaking and I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how I would react if something were to happen to my son.
When I was 11 my youngest brother passed away after a fight with leukemia something like that can destroy a family. Talking with my parents many years later, they both said that the only way they got through it was because they had to immediately turn their attention to their other two children.
It's been almost 30 years since his passing, my mother doesn't mention his name as I believe she still struggles with it. My father on the other hand has no problem talking about it.
I live in the Allentown area which I don't believe is to far from you. I'm heading out of town tomorrow for a week but if you want to bend an ear over a cup of coffee or meal, when I return, i will be there.
in response to getfreedental...i tried the webpages but got lost ive been on the computer for days. i cant sleep worth a shit. i think i will try them again after i get some sleep. i think i was getting frustrated on what to do. anyway they did investagate i think some people got in trouble and they all kind of stuck up for eachother its a small town. anyway im just gonna take it a day at a time and hope for the best and keep praying. The hardest part of this whole thing is that i cannot visit my sons grave. i havent been there since the funeral. its part of the post tromatic stress disorder. i cant explain why but i just cant go there. I have trouble sleeping all the time i know i have nightmares when i sleep i just cant remember them. i think its a subconsiece thing and i worry if i sleep i may remember one and i cant relive that moment again. I hope noone has to go through losing there child like i did. im hoping ron paul wins the election and we can get some sort of real reform in this country where we need it most and not over seas. thanks for listening ill post a picture of my sons last day on earth too. this was about 2 hours before he died riding a horse at cub scouts>

in response to bookworm2011...Little bit of this and a little bit of that. Haha No nothing new. Sounds like you have your hands full. Tell the one who's going to Mexico to be careful. It's deffaniately not like America in most of the country, to much corruption. Just have him keep his eyes open and when someone says duck they aren't talking foul.The one being potty trained, I'm not touchig that with a ten foot pole.You are probably right about the girls, when any kid and I mean any is quit for any length of time count on trouble of some sort.
in response to Schmidty...I've been around..doing a little of this, a little of that lol
working mostly and forever busy with my kids..one is about to go to Mexico to build an orphanage so running around trying to get his passport in time..the other is potty training..vast differences! Both extremely important nontheless..and my girls have both been pretty quiet this week, which spells trouble in some form or the other..thats about it, how about you? Anything new?
in response to kk8585...Welcome to college life:) I have a handful of friends with crazy - get by on whatever - college stories. It's tough to work and attend college, and I commend you for the effort. Financial aid is good for tuition and perhaps a few books, but that is it. I wish you the best. Take care and God Bless!
in response to jkern2c...Hi Joe - wow, you have my thoughts and prayers. I am surprised that scout leaders did not know basic CPR even after a few drinks. This is definitely a cause for investigation with the ultimate goal to prevent future tragedies. Your son will live on with your family and rest in heaven. I see someone suggested church as an option, and I would suggest the same. Churches may not only help financially but more important, spiritually. Please do not feel as if you are burden on them or anyone for that matter. I typically help people restructure debt to get back on their feet. Unfortunately, I feel lost on how to help but have handful of resources that might be of help. Have you applied for any government assistance? May God Bless.
in response to CXE...Yes I do go to church. They have helped me. I don't want to burden them to much. We go to food banks but we get food stamps its not food its electricity to keep food and health. Thanks though
in response to Inspiration...Thank you ill definitely check out the sites. As far as the boyscouts go they did help me out a lot. They helped pay for funeral expenses and such. I was supposed to get a 10,000 dollar insurance policy from them because he died while scouting. Im not sure if I qualify for it though. Also there was some tention between a lot of people and den leaders because some den leaders where drinking alcohol and no one new proper cpr or had any equipment. So while I was overwealmed with the loss of my son during the first few weeks. My mother took it upon herself to get an attorney involved. They naturally investagated with there own attorneys. I don't know if there is some hatred toward me but I don't think they will help me anymore. Thanks for the help.
Joe
Your story is heartbreaking and caught my attention because both of my boys are in the Boys Scouts.I have been reading a book that has information on lots of helpful resources and found a few websites that might help you.
This website offers help for free drug or mental health treatment, anxiety, depression, bipolar, and schizophrenia.This site is not only free but confidential.
This website allows you to print out a prescription discount card to save up to 75% on prescription drugs.I currently take a prescription that is not covered by insurance and the discount from the card cut my bill in half.
Another suggestion I would make is to share your story the Leaders of The Boys Scouts of America.Since your son was in the scouts, perhaps they would be willing to do a fund raiser in your son's honor and raise money for your medical bills and household expenses.My husband is an assistant Scout Leader.I will also ask him if he has any suggestions.Please keep us posted.
I'm here because I have nowhere else to go, I'm a family man that doesn't feel much of a man, I'm in a profession that goes thru to many ups and downs, anyway my mortgage and bills are due and don't have any money to pay for any of it, its not much but don't have it to pay, please anything would help, thanks
in response to jkern2c...I know you Dont wanna here this. But I will pray for your family. It touched my heart. I dont know if you belong to a church or not. But ANY church would help you. Pick up the phone book and call! Explain your story. Wish I could help you. I'm struggling to, I wish you the Best and I Will continue to pray for your Family. CALL A CHURCH, they have food pantrys and funds to help your situation. Good luck.

At the top of the page you can search for a Chapter near you. There is also a lot of information on this website that may be able to help you. I will be praying for you and your son.

Greetings everyone. I want to share a problem I have. For five years I have been trying to resolve a traffic violation that was given to me due to lack of funds. I use to be a U.S. soldier in the active duty Army. When I no longer was in the Army, I decide to enroll in college. Well one particular day over five years ago, I was trying to film a school project from my vehicle. Honestly I did not have any money compared to the amount of money that was being paid to me from the military. Times was hard and I had no insurance on my vehicle, to include expired license plates, and expired registration when I was attempting to film a project. The police assumed that I could be part of some terrorist organization because I was trying to film planes at a small regional airport. The vehicle was towed by the police for lack of all the traffic violations. Every since those fines, I have not been able to obtain a good job without drivers license since my license was revoked due to the traffic violations. The fine is $1,405.00 all together since it was three different violations. I have not been able to save nor raise that kind of money, because over the last five years I spent 3 and a half of those years a full time college student. I really need to find a way or some help to remove this from my record so I can possess license and obtain a decent or excellent career or job. I have had a few small jobs, but they only assisted me in helping pay rent, food, public transportation, and utilities. I really would like to do better for myself, and help others in the process. If only I could resolve this problem, then I will be able to return the favor to someone who needs the help one day. Does any person out there know a logical solution, or can anyone lend a helping hand? Thanks for reading this.
