I'm not the kind of person who asks for much, and especially not money.  I'm usually the one fundraising to help out others.  But now I find myself in a real dilemma.  If you know anything about the state of Michigan, we've been in a one state recession for over a year now.  In April of 2006 I lost my job.  My husband has not worked since 2004 and is legally disabled.  While he gets disability, it's not much.  His medications alone cost almost $200.00 a month.  And last September he was hospitalized for 11 days.  We have over $20,000 in debts I am trying to pay.  I finally found a part time job, but it doesn't even cover my housing & utilities. More often than not, we have to scrounge bottles & cans in order to be able to buy food.  I live in a single wide, 30-year old mobile home.  I was fortunate enough to get the county where I live to provide new doors for me last year but now there's a huge split in my kitchen floor.  Of course there's no insurance on the home or my truck.  I pray every time I drive back & forth to work that nothing happens.  If anyone can find it in their heart to make a contribution, I would be forever grateful.  And just as soon as I am back on my feet, I will pay it forward and monitor this site to see who I can help.  I do have a paypal account and you can email me at quiltbugg8972@yahoo.com. Thank you for listening and for your kindness.  God Bless!
