My 5th try !!! Please ~ YOUR HELP is NEEDED -more- than you know; I have no where else to turn; Please, PLEASE - I'm drowning; need your votes !!!

My companion cat, Bandit, has been diabetic for over two years. I learned, should he get sick, it can be serious. On March 8th, he began throwing up and couldn't keep anything down - so I rushed him to the Pet Emergency Hospital. They did tests; an IV; meds; etc. I brought him home the next afternoon. Later it started again; then he quit eating & drinking; continued to throw up until it was just foam ! Per my Vet, again, rushed him back to the Hosp.

During the first trip, I had called the local Pet Assistance, and got a $75 donation from United Animal Nations to the Hosp.; & a website to contact. I also told the Pet Hosp. I was on Disability, & didn't know how I would pay the bill. [They, in addition to my Vet, kept telling me to apply for CareCredit - this too - a long story, 'but', the -ultimate mess- I am in; with HORRENDOUS interest & payments !!!]

In my state of panic and frenzy & painful panic attacks - I later, stupidly, applied for Care Credit, AFTER, having written numerous detailed emails to a Pet Fnd., the addy I got through Pet Assistance.

Here is the breakdown of the bill -after- the $75 donation: $3,346 [less a one time only grant of $500 from AAHA Helping Pets Fund; less $18, rtn'd 6 cans of Rx cat food; less $10 from donation of 1st time for this wish] & $5 from chng.= $2,813.00.

"I" even ended up in the E.R. for 18 hrs. during all of this !!!

Please help me !!! I'm on SSI, and ALL the OTHER pet foundations I have contacted DO NOT DONATE "after the fact" -or- "once treatment has begun" !!! [I don't know how they expect you to know about them, let alone go through all the processes -before- your pet gets -any- treatment, when they are on the brink of death !!!]

Bandit is ALL I have left; and he is such a SWEET BOY !!! He helps with my B.P.; the depression times from my severe pain & illnesses. We play; he comes when I whistle; he knows when I'm extra sick; he keeps me on my toes; & is great company !!! Please...Help me with this enormous bill !!!

Donations would be very appreciated too !!!
Thank you ALL so very very much, and God bless !! (more)

Peace & Justice For The Family of Deanna Cremin

In 1995, something horrible happened in my hometown. From Kathy Cremin's Blog on MySpace: I don't quite know how to start what I want to be said here. But I am going to try. Over 12 years ago, I had a happy little family. I had a good job. My children by all aspects were happy, well adjusted kids growing up where their parents grew up, in Somerville, Massachusetts. Although I had the regular concerns any parent of active teenagers does, murder was not remotely in my thoughts. My concerns lied in their personal and emotional health. Their education, and their drug awareness. Their social activities and personal friendships did not raise any red flags for what happened. March 30, 1995 is a day that I dread to remember. But I can relive it several times a day second for second. My beautiful daughter had been strangled to death and I did not know what to do. I had no idea how to handle this and live at the same time. There is no relief to this grief. I live with it. Her dad lives with it. My daughter and my two sons live with it. I think it is our love for one another that helps us to move on in our lives. When I look at my children and I appreciate so very much, how very proud I am of them. How very much I love each one of them. How I wish I could do away with all the evil in this world so it won't come near them ever again, it is a very scary and strange feeling. Because no matter what,I am always afraid something bad will happen. When things are at their best,that fear is always ever looming over. Yet, I can't let it defeat my, or anyone in my family's dreams, endeavors, and pursuits for success and happiness... I almost lost everything with meaning after Deanna was murdered. And I would have if I had continued to let grief control my life. I chose to let the love inside and surrounding me be my guide. I am so grateful to have what I have. But I will not just slide back and let Deanna's murderer not be pursued. I think we can all help this quest for justice. And I am truly grateful to everyone who has put any time into helping get "Justice for Deanna." Thanks for listening, Sincerely, Katherine Cremin [ link ] If you know anything about Deanna's murder, Please contact Kathy. (more)

To see my Daddy for his 50th birthday!!! 2ND TRY!!!!

First of all, I'm putting this under the nice catagory because while it is for me to rent a car, it's actually a birthday present to my Daddy. He keeps telling me that all he wants for his birthday is for me to come home. Well, I can't move back, so I figured I'd surprise him with a visit!! I've spoken with his girlfriend, and she is willing to give me 100.00 for gas, so that will cover my gas costs. But my main concern is the car rental. I have to rent a car because my husband and I share a car, and I can't leave him for 4 days with no way to get to and from work.
My Daddy is a wonderful man, who put his life on hold to raise me while my Mother was "Growing up". He was known at my school as "Mr. Mom". All of my teachers loved him and just thought the world of him because here he was, a single dad, working full time, and I was at school everyday, clothed, well fed and well groomed. He took me to cheerleading practice, sewed patched onto my uniform, etc. He learned how to braid, just so he could braid my hair for me. He's the best daddy a girl could ever ask for.
So if you can find it in your heart to help, please send a 5 my way, and help me make my dad's bday wish come true!
I've included a link to the page of rentals I found. I'm going to go with the econo. or compact size, in order to save gas. So the price is right around 72.00 USD(plus tax). The extra funds would go to filling the tank back up upon returning it to the rental place. (Link- [ link ] ) Please help me make my father's wish come true. He's going to be 50 this year, I'm his only child, and I'd love to be there for him to celebrate his day! Of course, all donations are welcome and will go directly to the cost of the rental. Any leftover amount will go towards refilling the tank upon return. If there is any left after that, I plan on getting him a gift.
Please tell your friends about this wish, and help me get home to see my Daddy who I have not seen in going on 8 months!! (The pic is of him and I on my wedding day @ our dance. He was bawling his eyes out!! Sooo sweet!!! The video is the song we danced to.) (more)
