Lets Help Shelley - Page 5

For all those that ask... and have the right to know. YEP you do!

Who am I? Just a lady who was in Shelley's position six years ago. I have been there, done that. Exactly where she is now and more.  Had it not been for the kindness of my friends, family and many, many  total strangers who helped me when I needed it I would not be here today.

Why am I doing this for Shelley? Because enough folks out there gave their two cents for a total stranger, namely me, for the last six years that I have a place to live, a job, a good life, and a good outlook on the future. Hell has no place in my life anymore. No one deserves that I don't care who they are. I'm doing it because someone did it for me.

She needs the same things I needed. Help and hope. I don't have any money, but what little I have had, is hers. I can't offer her a place to stay with the dogs, other than a futon and I'd figure something out to make room for her dogs on top of the four I have here now. But she and her crew are welcome to come for as long as she needs to stay.

I've been a member here since 2004. I've kept quiet on this board to hide from my own past hell.
Anyone who wishes to know my real name and address can PM or email me for that info.
I can provide plenty of independant verification including law enforcement of who I am and that I'm sincere.

I'm helping Shelly with everything I have to help - hopefully that counts, no extra money but she also needs support from friends.

Oh yes, it counts. In a huge way.
From one little nobody in this world, let me say Thank You!

Avhay   where are you???? You have to bring your wife and come on down and be the chief gate keeper and barbque...man...

I just might take you up on that offer, I have a feeling I'm going to need a hide-out for a while.  Are you sure you still want to know me?

I will send assistance to Shelley as soon as I possibly can, as well.  Right at this moment, I can't, but I hopefully can by the end of the week.  Is there a way that I can send money to you, Shelley, that doesn't involve paying someone a fee?  If I can skip the fee, more of the money can go to you.  I'll PM you.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has/is helping my dogs and I in any way. I promise I will repay every cent and hopefully be in a position to return any/every favor in some special way, even "pay it forward" some, in the not too distant future. It may take a couple of years, but I don't plan to be down like this forever. I just wish I had done this 3-4 years ago, when I was a lot better off!
To any woman in a similar position as I was a few weeks ago, I would advise "Don't try to wait till you have all the bases covered, have a nest egg saved up, get "the right" opportunity" etc.  You probably won't ever... That's the nature of the game. You find yourself deeper and deeper in the hole, less resources every year, less opportunities and less energy, less confidence, less resilience, and most important--- WAY LESS SELF-ESTEEM.

In my case it was either take a chance, A) Run blindly out into the world without so much as a plan, let alone funds, or B) Lay down and die.  My whole life had turned into a constant rotation between anger, fear, and despair.
If it weren't for my dogs, 100% dependent on ME, there is a very good chance I would have chosen Plan B.

For those people who would advise "Why don't you just get rid of the dogs so you can get an apartment somewhere and a job and go on with it?" Please re-read the paragraph above.
For those who may happen to be a licensed MD, please just call in a presecription for Prozac, 40 mg day, to 1st National Pharmacy in Lehighton. I'll have it picked up and mailed. :-) The last free clinic I can remember that treated working-age patients for nothing was in the Haight-Ashbury in the 60's. I heard they mostly just dealt in penicillin and thorazine.

Thanks again,
SS

Shelley, I just live a few miles south of Atlanta Georgia, If you are close, your more then welcome to stay awhile. Just let me know.

Its a huge country! I wish I could visit every one of the people who have invited me to their homes. I picked a bad time of year to do this. So hot. Hard on the dogs to be constantly in transition. Hard on me too.
I look forward to our being in our "forever home". Turns out Shelley isn't much into constant change. Getting old I guess.
Still, there may be snow on the roof, but there's still a little fire in the stove. Ha ha ha.
