I am writing this wish in between tears.
As many of you know from my previous wishes I have 4 children and there father was forced to leave the US by voluntary departure almost 9 months ago now. Things just seem to keep getting worse for me and it is so hard but I must stay strong for my children. Here is a little more background on my situation.
When my husband left last July he had made sure our rent was paid where we were staying for the next 4 months. When time ran out I was forced to leave that apartment with my children and go stay with my parents. My sister also lives here with her 2 children so it has been a bit of a tight squeeze. I have been sleeping in there living room with all my children living out of boxes. My 5 month old is sleeping in a playpen and my other children are on the couch or loveseat while I sleep on the floor. Now don't get me wrong I am very grateful that they have a roof over there heads and food to eat. I cannot work right now since I would be working solely to pay daycare expenses. I receive $329 a month in food stamps unfortunaltely that doesn't cover pampers and such for the children. I fell into some online work from home scam where I had to pay 37.00 to start. According to the website I made some money but have yet to receive that check. My oldest daughter Selena and my son, Griffin are outgrowing all there clothing and I just don't have the funds to buy new clothes for them.
My father is a great man and works in construction but is just pulling in enough to cover the rent and bills for the house. He helps when he can. My mother who is also a great person is on disability from the state. Tonight, she decided she was leaving and is gone now. Her and my father had there differences and she just decided she couldn't stay around anymore.
Seeing how great that the people here are on RHF I decided to reach out for a desperate plea for help. I am usually the one who helps others and would rather see someone else happy than myself. I never before would dream to ask for any help but this time I must put my pride aside and do it for my children. With my mom gone I may not have somewhere to live in a month or so. Could you please find it in your hearts to help? (more)

We have a place here called Associated Charities where we can get free clothing and some household items each month. Like pots and pans, tablecloths, glasses, cups, etc., not paper type products. Is there a place like that near you? Maybe a Salvation Army for free clothing and such? Check to find out. My prayers are with you.
