my name is christy. i am a 32 yr old single mom living in columbus ohio. i live with my beautiful children who are straight A students....good athletes....and respectable children. they are my pride and joy and i live and would die for them. i work hard everyday...working 50-60 hours a week to make ends meet. leaving me little time to enjoy the activities related to raising children...football games...cheerleading competitions...confrences...and being without my children is ruining my self esteem and eventually will ruin theirs...i am worried about that... i am writing today asking you...on the brink on begging you to help me. i know this may or may not be the right place but i have run out of options. recently i was forced to move from my home. violence had struck the neighborhood and when i wake up to bullet holes in my front door and in my car...i figure it is time to leave...i worked night and day to get us moved and succeeded on my own in doing so. borrowing enough to cover deposit and first months rent...and also leaving me well behind and unable to pay this month. now i know you want to delete me....i know you may be angry that i am even writing...but i will do anything for them and right now i am in a crisis....i need your help. i will do whatever is asked of me if you can help. i am desperate and just need the compassion of one person to help with this.. im not a drug addict, a alcoholic, or a smoker. i dont prostitue, escort or sell my body.... i am just asking for a little help...help agencies turn their back to or prolong the inevitable.. i dont want to be homeless again . again i thank you for taking the time to read. i hope you could find the compassion.....and help a family who is down on our luck....just please consider.... i look forward to hearing from you soon christy cah0826@aol.com
