heart surgery and to be free of medical debt.
We cannot afford to fix my heart. I have Atrial Tachycardia and need an ablation. I owe thousands right now because of my heart, and even with insurance we cannot afford the surgery. I have lost jobs because of my heart, and I just want to be healthy. |

$652.13 for one payment on my student loans.
They were wrong when they said you can be what ever you want. . .I just want help paying one payment on my student loans. I know the picture is small, but there is my real-time statement of what is due in a few weeks. I have a BA, but because of other circumstances, I do not have a great job that will make these payments easily for me. Someone should have told me that you really can't do any job you want. |

$80 to bribe my husband to take out the trash
I am tired of fighting over the trash and having to do my husbands responsibility. I was thinking that if I bribed him with $20 a week, then I could have one month of not having to take out the trash. If he does not take it out, then I use the $20 a week for a manicure. |

A health club membership so I can load the patient by myself
An average patient weights 200+lbs and our gurney weighs 120lbs making my lift weight be 300+lbs. I just want to be able to lift the gurney without having to scare the patient or ask the boys I work with to do it for me. I am great at manuvering the empty gurney by myself, but I am not quite able to load a patient yet. I beleive that having a gym membership will help me build the muscles I need to properly load the gurney in our ambulance. |

Money to pay our Fire Department Dues
My husband and I each owe $55 to our Fire Station to pay our annual dues. This money is used to buy items that we and our fellow fire fighters use. I have not been able to pay these because I have been paying more important bills. Thank You reguardless of your vote! |

One night with no pagers with my husband
3 ambulance pagers+2 fire pages+2 cell phones+a direct dial from 911 dispatch=no quiet nights with my husband **UPDATE**. (I am working on joining another department to allow myself to go on more med calls meaning there will be 3 fire pagers. This department averages 6 a day and will be building a new station within a year!) I am asking for enough to cover his wages for one night plus a pizza and blockbuster movie. This will let me turn off every pager and cell phone to have just one night with him. In the past week he has had off 36 hours and I have spent about 10 with him (half of that me cuddling with is back as he is dead asleep, the other half was spent in an ambulance.) The video is of a pager going off (Not ours!) but it lets you know what I get to wake up to in the middle of the night. |

No more cheating
I'm tired of it. Sick of it. Exhausted of it. Please just be civil. Realize that some people out there need some stuff more than you. GROW UP! |

A nintento Wii

A battery for my Toshiba
I would like to be able to use my laptop in the ambulance during long transfers to and from Seattle. That's it. |
|
A set of dubbells
I need to build my muscles to help me lift and move patients and the gurney. I would just like a set that will not take up that much room and will grow with me. I'm tired of scaring the patients because they think I will drop them. Thanks! |

A cut and color before I start my new job!
I got the job, and now I would like to look nice. My hair has not been cut since before I got married, 6 months ago. Yeah! My new phone number is 911!!! |

An Espresso Machine
Ewwww, I have to be at 911 at 6AM! Help me get moving in the morning! I am so not a good morning person, but Mochas sure do the trick. Instead of spending $5 a day on a mocha, or stumbling to the phones, I would like to learn how to make my own! |

A Nano so I can have a radio while driving!
Well now that I have started full time at 911 I have an hour drive to fill with tunes and such. My husband has started to use his ipod durring his 3 hour drive time leaving me with a car with no radio. I know that I do not need a nano. Its just now that i need some more ME time and I know how much this will help me with that. Love yall! |

Firefighting gear that fits
I am a small firefighter who needs a new mask. Mediums fit all of the boys in my department, but they don't fit me so I need a small. This means that when we arrive at a fire I cannot go into it or go near certain areas because of my lack of PPE. If I bought my own mask, then I could use it on scene and be able to do more. I would donate it to my department, making it apart of my community. This would greatly increase my safety and my satisfaction when working with my fire department. I know I am asking for more than would be given, but my hopes are that my department could meet me part of the way with the money right now. |
