i know i have to be strong....,

hi glad you can come to us assometimes we can at least give you a shuolder to cry on and maybe even some ideas to help. Do not b e too proud right now. ask for any help you can get. I do not know where yuu are and I am in the US but here we can sometimes go to our own church for help; sometimes churches take up collecions ol help a deserving family in time of need. also fo not forget your own family, can you ask some relatives to help you with the hospital finances and how about any insurance your father has?I know how all this is so stressful but in order to help your father you must all take good care of yourselves. Ways to make money bake sales, garage sales, even putting out a plea on the net for help, also how about televisons stations in your area? here in the US we have some who have helped ufortunate families out in real crisis.You sound strong but still you cou ld use some help even to put a plea for help in your local newspaper. this is not the time to be too proud,.check for any foundations that might be able to offer help. keep us posted let us know what goes on. good luck and God bless you.

Hi there! Its okay, problems are part of our life but we must be strong. I'm also facing problems right and I don't know what to do. Its okay to cry if we really can't help it but we have to be strong and do what's best to overcome the problem whether its financial, emotional and any thing. Life is not just "downs" just have faith, and don't lose hope. Everything happens for a reason. Look at those problems as blessings in disguise or make those trials as your stepping stones to be more stronger. Many people have also problems like you, and like me I have a big problem too and sometimes I really can't help but cry but I know I must be strong so you too. You can do it. :) Have faith. Everything will be back to normal. :)

Sorry to hear about the situation with your Father, and hope somehow you can come up with the money or a solution to your problem to where he is able to get the type of help he needs. I know with Medical problems and issues having high bills to pay off is no Fun for sure. We have been there with Medical issues of my own. My thoughts and Prayers are with you and your Dad and family, and hope he is feeling better soon.

It seems that all bad things comes at once. You never get all the bad things happen when you have all the money for pay for things. And I cannot say that it will get better. You have to ask for help. I can just pray that things will get better. Is there a way that the hospital can give you a plan to pay it back monthly instead of telling you they want the money now?

Hi. djmarion. I am very sorry that you are going through a very hard time. I hope that you will come out of this situation without any stress. If you believe in God, he will help you get through your situation. He will not leave you astray. He loves you even when you sometimes feel as if you don't love yourself at times. I hope that you and your sisters will come up with the money. God will bless you, he will never leave you nor forsake you. Ask and pray, God will grant you anything and everything that you will need to get through this difficult time in your life. I will be praying for you and your sisters. I will also pray for your father's speedy recovery too. Take care and be blessed.

Hiya djm, You know you have to be strong but when you need to cry you have to no matter what. Because it releases all the pent up tension. Later after a good cry sometimes is when we can see more clearly our way ahead and how to handle the situation. I feel for you and your Family talk to us all often like Hatley says and see if anyone can give you any ideas too as how to make more money. I hope the situation gets sorted out soon. It is not easy to stay positive either so you might well have Days when you don´t want to even think about problems as they are. Just do the best you can when you can for the moment.

In times like this or on your situation, the only thing we can do is cling on Him and His guidance. I believe He will not forget or snob you because He knew you can overcome it. Remain strong and keep that wisdom in you.

I also have experienced, you are experiencing now. I am very sad and frustrated. However, by continually saddened and frustrated, will not make things better. I tried to strong, though very difficult. I'm sorry, with the state of your father. I really hope your dad to get well soon. You must be strong, and confident. You definitely get through it all.

Hi. Your myLot community have given great pieces of advice. There is nothing I can add that hasn't been said already. But count me in also as one who's hoping and praying that you'll overcome this crisis. I was raised Catholic, and I strongly believe that whatever you're going through right now, God has some special plans for you.

I know someone who also has a problem. He's actually a father of two. One of his child has asthma and they had to take care of him from time to time. He also tries hard to earn money. The only difference between you and him is he's an @sshole and you aren't. Whatever you do, don't step on other people to prevent yourself from experiencing bad karma. That's the last thing you want to happen if you're in a tight situation like this.

Like it or not each of us has encountered many difficulties in our life. What we can do is do not be afraid.To be brave in the face of difficulties, and actively try to do our best customer service difficulties.

I have been in a similar situation before. It was my mother who was really sick and confined in the hospital. Crises do happen in our lives, but as they say nothing is permanent. 'This too shall pass' is my favorite quote whenever I'm faced with troubles. If you feel like crying, then just let your tears flow. Crying is therapeutic and it helps you release your pent-up emotions. I really hope that you survive the crisis you're having right now.

hi, i hope your father will be good again. That's really difficult condition but you and your family's member must strong. Goog luck

I've been right there with you. Almost the same situation. You feel lost. I found the best way to handle it, is just to have a really good cry then try to pull yourself together and figure out a plan. Stressing yourself out is only going to make you sick. ( I know easier said than done)but if everyone puts their heads together you might be able to come up with some type of plan. Have you tried any government assistance? Discussing payment options with the hospital? I hope everything turns out well. You will be in my thoughts and prayers!

djmarion Hang on there, I know how you feel. I just lost my grandmother recently to an illness and during that period that she was struggling for her life, those was tough times for me and my family as well. I thought I could be strong, I really thought I could, but in the quiet space, I really let go.

Hi dear, A sick person at home is always a pain to everyone at home. Someone needs to be always attentive and be alert. Feel sorry about you, but it is our duty to be strong enough whenever such situations comes up. Regular illness and frequent hospitalization make us weak and now-a-days, hospitals and medicines become highly expensive and normal people cannot afford the peak expenses. Hope you are managing and request you to be bold enough when situations comes up like this. All other problems we can resolve with the help of others, but when it comes to money matter, we have to bare all. I think you all need to cooperate in this matter and wish your father good health and peace to you all. Thank-s

Such problems seem to be so bad. This is surely an another trial given by God. Did you did something God does not want you to?(Just asking) Maybe this is a kind of somewhat a punishment? Do not worry at all. Just lay yourself in God's hands. He will help you resolving this problem. God forgives everyone. Just trust Him as it is the reason why He gave these problems to you. Maybe you've been not attending masses? (Just an Example, no offense) Just cheer up, crying cannot help you overcome this problem but it can help you motivate yourself.

Dear djmarion, God bless you dear.You should be strong at this moment. Because this are the moments which are called "TEST MOMENTS" of our life. So be strong try to find our various sources to fullfill your financial problems. Thanks

hi there , just always think that GOD is always with us no matter what happen ...you have to be strong for your family...

Crying is a great release. If you've gotta do it, do it. But once your done, my best advice is to stay positive. The more you focus on what's bad, the more it will come true. It may sound silly, but even saying little things like "I have plenty of money" or "my family is healthy" will make a huge difference. You just have to feel it and believe it's possible, and that positivity will flow through your life, guaranteed.
