Please, I urgently need your help. My children and I are struggling and truly need support right now.

Hello everyone, it has been a couple of days without posting for help. I really had to find the strength within me to again express my condition.

I’ve been receiving more of my test results gradually through the portal while waiting for my next hematology appointment. Some results are okay, some are still abnormal and it’s honestly been very stressful and overwhelming.

My mental health has also really been affected by everything happening right now. Sometimes it feels like everything in my life is moving in a different direction all at once but I’m still trying my best to seek help physically and mentally because I truly want to be okay. I keep telling myself that if my health improves then eventually everything else will also fall into place.

Right now I’m still struggling with low neutrophils and platelets, medication costs, i really need to pay a monthly bus pass for transportation, food and basic needs while trying to survive as a newcomer without stable income yet. I really don’t have any other means of receiving support apart from PayPal.

I’m trying to raise around $400 CAD to help me stay stable during this period.

But I’m going to be alright. I’m still holding on and trying my best.

If anyone is able to support or share, I would truly appreciate it very much.

PayPal: Sahilqudra@gmail.com

Thank you so much.

I got my rent for the week! Thank y'all so much for helping me out, I really appreciate it.

I'm working two night shifts this week, so I get off after the bus stops running. Unfortunately these are the only hours I have available, so I can't really complain about it. My last paycheck was $30, and they don't give us paystubs at this job so I don't know why. I know I worked more than $30 worth of hours. I also know I got sued a few years ago for credit card debt, so they might be garnishing my wages now. Not sure though.

I'm hoping I can get a compatible phone and switch out the SIM card, because I had service that like, kept getting renewed month to month without me having to pay. I think it's an ObamaPhone or something? Idk, anyways...

I can get that for under $60.

Then, I really need to get an Xfinity WiFi pass. It's $10 for a 30 day pass.

And then, probably should have listed this first since it's the most important: a couple days ago someone stole my sleeping bag. I don't know how much this will cost; although it's summertime now and thus (relatively) not as cold at night, I still need a cozy plush sleeping bag because of my bony old man body.

I can only accept funds through my friend's PayPal. They're going to convert whatever funds they receive into a Visa/MasterCard gift card so I can make all these purchases. Their PayPal is @lizo9, please include a message like "4 your friend on Hexbear."

I hope you will try to help me and my family, and share this with anyone who can help. This is the GoFundMe link. https://gofund.me/5156f6e9 I have some observations. There are several donations that have been received through GoFundMe, but the money hasn't reached the beneficiary bank account. My question is, has anyone donated and then received a refund? . Thank you my friends

In Gaza, we are no longer searching for comfort — only trying to survive one more day with dignity. Your support could ease the weight of war on a family that has already endured too much. 🤍

Well, I got my paycheck for this week, it was fucking $30. They've been cutting my hours really hard but I didn't realize just how bad they had cut my hours. Fortunately I've gotten some help, but I'm still $100 short on what I need to send tomorrow.

Hi everyone, I wanted to give another update after my appointment at the hematology and red blood cell department. Also I’m really so sorry that my posts are over appearing but I just don’t have anywhere to run to apart from you.

I am from seeing the doctor today and she told me she’s really worried about my blood results. I had more tests done today and from what I can remember, she said my CRP is high, my neutrophils are very low and my platelets are also still low. She explained a lot more to me but honestly I’ve been overwhelmed and struggling to process everything. I’m just tired of going to the hospital again and again but also happy that at least I can be able to access medication because it’s not the same as it was in South Sudan. I’m really grateful for Canada.

This is where things become really difficult for me because after all these tests, I’m supposed to start medication and not all of it is covered. Some medications are covered, some I still have to pay for myself and right now I truly don’t have the means.

I’m really trying to stay strong through all of this though I honestly still need support right now. Any help, support or sharing means more than I can explain.

Please consider supporting me through,

PayPay: Sahilqudra@gmail.com

Thank you so much for the kindness and support you’ve shown me already. I really appreciate

Copy and pasting my last post, if you read it the first time there's no need to read it again

Hey y'all! First off, I want to say thank you all for the help, both now and in the past. I am schizophrenic among other mental disabilities and physically disabled (I have dislocated my knee twice this year) so the help I get here has really helped keep me stable over the past few years. And to those who haven't been able to help financially, thank you for your kind words and company. I feel like the people on this site are the only people I can just talk to without having to over explain myself. Here, I am taken at face value and treated with kindness and compassion. I have made some of my best friends on this site for this reason.

So, "programming fees" (the non-profit friendly term for rent) for sober living come every week, $125 a week. I do have a job, however it is a shitty fast food job. I get paid minimum wage, part time hours, and they schedule me outside hours the bus line is running so I also have to pay for Ubers home from a party area of the city, which gets quite expensive. Then they keep cutting my hours even further.

Then there's the actual sober living experience that also drains me of money, especially with recent events. I'm gonna vent about some of the recent events in the spoiler, but I'll explain the expenses. Toilet paper for a house of 8 people. Then there's the fucking chores. We're expected to wipe down everything every day, we're expected to pay for the cleaner, we're expected to pay for paper towels for the glass (we get yelled at for not buying paper towels), laundry detergent for clothing donations that go in the non-profit's clothing pantry in our garage, we're expected to go to 3 NA/AA meetings a week and ZOOM meetings don't count so gotta pay for transportation to meetings, then a meeting with the president of the non-profit with a few of the other houses where we just get yelled at for being behind on rent or not following the bullshit rules closely enough that I also have to pay for transportation for. I am one of two people in the house with a job.

Although the weekly rent is $125, I am quite behind on rent and am expected to pay something down on my back rent, so I'm asking for an extra $25 so that I'm technically paying on my back rent.

Vent CW: Suicide, legal issues, car accident, drug use

These past couple weeks have been fucking terrible. Easily some of the worst weeks I've had in a long time.

So this clusterfuck starts with some context. One of my housemates has a Tesla. He didn't pick this car out, he got it in a weird situation with one of his friends, I don't fully understand it, but he's not a Nazi. Well, someone on the road thought he was, and threw a rock through his windshield. He responds to this by chasing them down to their house. Running red lights, driving off road, just some unhinged shit. Well, the cops got involved and arrested him with some wild accusations of shit that didn't happen. Fortunately, he was driving a Tesla, so there are cameras all over it and he won't be found guilty of the shit the cops accused him of. Some of the charges have already been dropped.

Well the scary thing about this was he had warrants all over the state, nothing major, mostly traffic violations, but still warrants. When he went in, we expected him to get tossed around the state by the cops for a very long time. Fortunately, he had a medical emergency when in jail and got sent to the hospital and he got out of the legal shuffle. Unfortunately, this didn't happen soon enough. His boyfriend lives with us, he's a good friend of mine and the only other person with a job in the house. He tried to kill himself after seeing his boyfriend get arrested for some heavy ass charges. He survived and is on anti-depressants and back in the house now, but it was a lot to deal with.

The guy who got arrested was also a fucking nightmare when he came back from the hospital. I don't know what the fuck happened, but the doctors shot him up with fentanyl and morphine, and being around that was fucking awful. I was so jealous. I don't think I'd ever use opiates again because of the risk of getting laced shit, but in the moment with everything going on, I wanted to be nodded out and forgetting everything around me like him. He didn't do anything wrong, he got meds from a doctor and didn't get a prescription to bring them home so there was no risk to anybody else in the house, but it was difficult to be around.

Thank y'all for letting me vent

Today, I’m writing because the exhaustion has become heavier than I can carry alone. For us, the war never truly ended — its aftermath still steals the simplest parts of my children’s lives every single day. We keep trying to survive with what little we have left, but the needs are becoming far beyond our ability, from food and medicine to the most basic necessities of life.

Please be a reason for helping us. 🙏🤍

Update to this post.

I have not been able to find a solicitor in time for the appeal's reading, so I have to appear myself. I've been told what to do, I just have to do it without throwing up or passing out. There's a good chance that because I haven't secured representation yet that the order to remove my son from the country will be stayed or at least delayed until I can be allowed to make an argument properly.

Wish me luck.

Even if they don't, even if the worst comes to pass, I am still fighting this like my son's life depends on it - because it really does.

I need about €50 ASAP to cover travel expenses and fees related to filing documents for the appeal.

The quotes I got for up-front legal expenses vary wildly, but I need at least €1,500 to start. Please help us in any way you can. We greatly appreciate it.

And if anyone can recommend an Irish solicitor, that would also be great.

Hello everyone, I honestly didn’t expect to come back with another update so soon but things have become more serious with my health.

I recently went back to the doctor and had more tests done. The results showed that my platelets and white blood cells are extremely low and both I and the doctor are very worried. I’ve now been referred to the hematology department in Toronto for urgent follow up care.

The doctor instructed me to avoid contact with people as much as possible and to be very careful not to get any cuts or injuries because of the risk of bleeding. Hearing that honestly scared me a lot.

I really thought things would finally get better after being resettled in Canada. I never imagined I would find myself asking for help again but honestly you have become the only support system I have right now. This no longer feels like simply reaching out, it feels like I’m running toward help because I’m overwhelmed. I’m really, really tired

I’m still a newcomer trying to adjust to life here. I don’t have a job yet and that hurts me too but I’m trying my best to apply, volunteer and get the certificates needed to work in Canada because one day I truly want to give back to the community. That’s one of my dreams ever since I stepped here.

Right now I’m struggling with medication, transportation for appointments, food, my sisters back in the horrible South Sudan and my mental health. I’m also constantly worried about my sisters back in South Sudan who still depend on me emotionally.

If anyone is able to help in any way, I would deeply appreciate it.

Update to this post.

Thanks to some very quick help, I succeeded in filing the notice of appeal on time. It was something of a miracle that I managed to pull it off. The money I generously received was just enough to take care of everything. Thank you very much, you all know who. Now that that part is taken care of I can focus on getting a new solicitor.

I have no idea how much it will cost (or how much I will need up front) but the research I've done so far says that family law cases in Ireland can run up to €25,000. When I get a more accurate figure, I'll update the post. For now, that's the goal. Same for when I find out how much I need up front.

Please help us in any way you can. Please share this post with anyone you think can help out. We both appreciate it very much.

If you want more information about what is happening, I'll share what I can. If you have any question or can offer help in another way, please DM me. Thank's everyone. It still feels dire, but we're making progress thanks to you. :)

EDIT: Thank you to the kind person who sent extra 💜

So don't know how this happened but my brand new bank account got targeted by fraud. Unfortunately since it's a smaller local credit union they don't refund you until the claim goes through and they'll still hit me with an overdraft tomorrow (gets refund later but still would suck).

Shitty timing considering it took my food money for the week but luckily I can get to a good bank to get by for now.

Thank you in advance for reading. Anything helps 💜

     Comrades, I’m reaching out because I am in a terrifying medical emergency and urgently need the community's solidarity. I have developed a severe tooth abscess, and I need emergency oral surgery to have it treated.The situation is critical. A tooth abscess isn't just extreme pain—it is an active, spreading infection.             
   If  I do not get a surgery immediately, the infection can spread to my jaw, my bloodstream (causing sepsis), or my brain, which is fatal. My life is quite literally on the line, but because dental care is treated as a luxury under capitalism rather than a basic human right, I am being paywalled out of the medical intervention that will save me.The total cost for the emergency extraction, anesthesia, and surgical treatment of the infection is $3,000. I do not have the funds to cover this, and time is entirely working against me.If you have anything to spare, it would mean the world to me and could genuinely save my life. If you can't contribute financially right now, sharing this post, commenting to boost visibility, or just sending solidarity my way is deeply, deeply appreciated.Donation links:CashApp: $BaileyteeDeePayPal: @KeralaDee95Thank you for reading, and thank you for always keeping us safe when the system abandons us.

Life is no longer bearable… Every day is a struggle for the most basic things: food, safety, and a sense of peace.

We hide our exhaustion, but the reality is harsher than words can express. We keep going… because we have no other choice.
