Grant Info

 in response to Whitney6...   

Under grant gate you look under locations such as the state you live in then you have to sort through those sites dealing with student grants then at the top of the screen you see inquiry. The inquiries will help you along some will ask questions which will design the paperwork for your grant its a bit time comsuming. But it will give you some choices and you can send a few letters to the places you find to which will award you a grant.

I created a second image on this site I also go under the name barry5. I am still a native american looking for a break I have never seen. I search for better ways and still haven't found them I try but not doing so well. I'm reaching the half century mark in July and hope that something might happen. But sometimes you have to go with the card you are dealt. It ain't great but it is what I have and need to deal with it.

How Does Aidpage Work

 in response to lovinmy2babies0607...   

First of all don't blame yourself for the situation it is what it is instead take the time you spend blaming your self and turn it into how can I improve myself. Then the 2 of you close your eyes together and find the place you want to be. Then be there for a time and then tell yourself this is it we need to be there and nothing can stop you. I should be doing that myself and often find myself there I will hopefully get there one day but your young I wish I did this sooner in life but it your chance to do it now. Use the youth that you have to get what need and want not for yourselves but for your children and there future.

How Does Aidpage Work

 in response to TMS...   

Well it seems that you should be able to get a small business grant from the government as well as a hardship loan. I can't tell from your letter what type business your son may have had but is the child mother close to you. I don't know if he had life insurance that might help but you really need to look into a grant I have been. I see a great many places offering grant on this website ask your attorney about getting involved if possible. I don't know if you will be able to adopt your granddaughter but if you do buy your son's business it will make it difficult to care for the business. But I am sure if you think it through you will make the right decision. Work on holding on to your grand daughter and getting the papers you need for the grant you are going to be between a rock and a hard place but you must succeed. I have tried myself with little luck hopefully you'll do much better then I have good and don't give up.

Reasons to Leave vs. Reasons to Stay

Well I think it time he cuts the cord between him and his mom we are all raised by are families that someday we can go out on are own to start are own families. I have always taking care of my mom but It was always understood that I may leave sometime down the road. Apparently you knew his relationship with his mom and somehow might of even known he would possibly go in this direction. If he insist on staying with his mom over you then he will have to make a choice you or his mother. It not a bad thing that he loves his mom but he married you and need to do the right thing for you. You might love him and he's a good father but he creating a bad influence for your duaghter. He showing that he can't give his all to the family he created he can't be there for you when you need him. He can still have his mom outside the home you can find another place for the 3 of you. For all that he is he still made a commitment to you and needs to start fullfilling his side of things. Sounds like his mom is killing the relationship by deciding the directions you both take that is not her decision it you and your husbands. I have a friend and ex love she recently began divorce precedings when she found her husband was cheating she has a 2 year old boy with him. She going through hell over this and it eats her up inside having the similar issues not so much with his mom as the feelings. But she getting through it barely I still love her and would try and help her any way I could. But you may have to make the decision between staying and being miserable or parting the way on good terms. If you chose to leave and he doesn't want to leave his mom for you then he hasn't grown up enough to be married to you. A suggestions is to have a separate account and if you decide to leave him put your money in another personel account. You might even think of a trust fund that he can't touch in your daughters name. If you have family in the area and account in one of your families name if you choose. Its not going to be a happy time in your life but when the smoke clears and you get past the pain you might find a better way. Your still young and have a long way to go take care of you and your daughter and let her be the force that drives you in the right direction.

Sad to hear your wife is ill hope you 2 have had a good marriage up to now. Don't know how I can help other to say no financial help in the world could help if it her time to meet god. I won't tell you to find god either because if he's not there now he won't be there. We all have him there from the day we are born till the day we die. The question is what direction we follow in the time in between. If you love your wife enough you can live in a card board box on the street and never be sad. That is what you need to do find the inner feelings that bind you and hold on to them till the end and beyond. It not a confirmed science but what is I happen to live with the knowledge I have been here before and will again. If you love your wife enough I believe you will find each other again. Death is not the end just and off ramp to another beginning we all have a long way to go till the idea that death is ever the end. Enjoy the moments together they are more important then that disease call money.

I have gone through alot of that spent a long time on drugs my youngeryears. When I was a child I had and accident chasing pigeons fell on my face broke my front tooth then came doing drugs in late teens early twenties. This went on till I was into my thirties. I had a boss in the middle of that was kind enough to pay for my dentistry which involved implants. Which is costly even back then I got lucky some employer that find you important part of business will do this but not all. I am going to be 50 soon and went for a long time after that with out of pocket expenses for dentistry I understand that hospitals provide programs. These programs are for the interns to learn dentistry and they often take in patients for free work. I had even found a dentist that would take payments for work. The hospital may also be able to give advice on other possibilties I have even seen insurance outside of most companies provide that for as little as 30 to 40 dollars provide coverage that most will not. I hope this info might help good luck

There are hospitals that provide dental assistance some give it free for the training of its interns. You may want to check into that possibility Some may allow a payment plan to take care of those with finacial problems. I had similar problem and managed to find a dentist that would take payments. I currently now made it into a Union local 3 electrician. but prior to that for more then 15 to 20 years I had no coverage and most insurers give little to none as far as dentistry

I need a great many things but know I won't get them I live my life the best way I can and try not to make waves. I try to help people when I can but I haven't had it easy either. The best I can do for people is to pass whatever wisdom I might have to give. But this is going to be the big half century mark come july so I have had my time out there and gained some knowledge and lost some. But in the grand scheme of things the poor get poorer and the rich get richer and I fall somewhere in the middle. Still don't have a pot to p... in but trying to make ends meet. I am a native american that my own people won't acknowledge me because both my parents were orphaned as children and never kept up with them. Just looking for a break where they don't seem to exist for me. But hopefully one day the world will wake up and see what they are doing to themselves and the world around them.

Aidpage group discussing "CAR"...

 in response to anciearies@msn.com...   

A thought for you check the local high schools and any vocational schools in your area that may have and automotive repair class. Alot of school don't get enough cars to work on and they have skilled teachers showing them how to repair cars. they may do it for you for nothing more then the cost of parts. you really can't go wrong if it works out and being you are disabled they might do it for free.

Government Grants

I have tried also for a government grant so many websites all asking for fees and provide little in the way of getting me any closer to a grant. I had and online business that I was paying for with credit cards and I needed to stay afloat cause let me tell you online business is extremely costly. I had to eventually claim bankruptcy since I lost my mom in June of 08 I became the sole income in the household. I have a regular job but if you live in NY and not making at least 75K it ain't easy. I also lost my car in a accident and had to buy a new one another expense I can't afford but also can't do with out. Just like to think that some way some how things get better.

Depending on how many months you are in debt to your landlord he would still have to take you to court and that would give you some time. I mean you would have to eventually pay the rent but a judge would have to evaluate the situation. There may also be funding that can be acquired if you check with the courts they may have a program for a person in your situation.

some past thoughts and experiances

I once some 30 years back went with a girl who owned 20 siamese cats that was some crazy time. But I never worried about staying warm in the winter they always shared the bed, couch, favorite chairs. Whenever you needed and warm little ball of fur to keep you company voluntarily or involuntarily they were there. We had to eventually give them away to families in need of a little fur ball to keep them company. We have been back and forth over the years after she gave away the cats she lost here immunity to pets with fur and could never have any furry animals around her anymore. But we did did manage to have 4 girls together alot more difficult then 20 or more siamese cats. Don't see the kids anymore but I still have my dog and family so it could be worst.

A native American that just trying to make ends meet in this ever changing world we do deserve a break. I've suffered the lost of my mom in June and I am the sole provider in the household supporting my older sister. I have also just lost my car in a accident and required a new one. I have also gone through a bankruptcy that has really taken a toll on me the car I recently purchased will be a killer to pay for but is needed. All I hope and wish for is half from some type of grant if possible that to bring down the stress and interest that it is costing me. If anyone can help it would be appreciated thanks for listening
