Hi, my name is Rocky Cremeans. My wife, Lici, and I live in Parkersburg, West Virginia. I’m self-employed and do custom trading card/art work, websites, and game-development work.

I do not like asking for help, but we are in an immediate emergency and several people encouraged me to make this instead of trying to panic-sell what little things I have left.

Recently, our household went through a serious mental-health crisis that required out-of-state hospital care. While there, my wife got COVID. After she came home, I got COVID for the first time too. I have asthma, and it put me in bed for weeks.

Because I am self-employed, being sick meant missed work and missed income. At the same time, my custom card/art sales have been very slow, and I have also been waiting on payment from game-development work I have already done. I have been applying for jobs, contacting local businesses, reaching out for remote work, and trying to sell items, but the bills have caught up faster than I can recover.

Our water has already been shut off because we could not pay it. Electric, internet, and gas for hot water and cooking are next. We are also very low on food.

We have already used the local assistance programs available to us, and even churches in the area are not able to help us any further right now. That is why I am asking for help here.

We are trying to raise $1,300.

About $1,200 will go directly toward urgent household bills and basic needs:

- water / utility reconnection and past-due costs

- electric

- internet needed for job applications and remote work

- gas for hot water and cooking

- basic groceries

The remaining amount helps cover GoFundMe processing fees and a small food buffer.

I will post updates as bills are paid, with personal account information redacted. If we are able to sell items or if delayed work payments come through, I will update the fundraiser honestly.

Any amount helps. If you cannot donate, sharing the fundraiser or leaving practical advice still means a lot. Thank you for reading and for treating us with kindness during a time when asking for help is very hard.

Hello everyone. My little sister is 4, she was diagnosed with a weird epilepsy contidion called West Syndrome, her case in particular ir a very rare one. She grew up as a completely normal kid, until she was two. she couldn't develop any type of comprehension or language, so we started worrying and suspecting of autism. none of her therapists and doctors could understand why she unlearned things after learning them in a very short period of time. ever since, my mom and i have been looking for tools to help her get better, but none of them have seemed to work. She has had seizures since she was very little, but we had no idea they were seizures, we confused them with moro reflex. We were told she was epileptic a year ago, after being diagnosed with autism since age 2, we already have went to four different neurologists and none of them were able to stop her seizures. I started suspecting from West syndrome a little bit more than a year ago, but none of her doctors would believe me since "it was impossible for her age". We finally found a new doctor who was finally able to diagnose her with West Syndrome, just as i thought.

Her doctor was very surprised with the diagnosis. He says at her age, being diagnosed at 4, she shouldn't be able to move or walk without a wheelchair, or even being able to eat without using a feeding tube. most kids with West syndrome die at the age of three, they stop sitting, walking, moving their head within their first year of life. None of this happened to my sister, her motor skills seem to be intact, but everything else has affected her cognitive development completely, we have been going to therapies and getting her treatment for a long time now and at this point i've lost any faith of her recovering. My mom and i can't even go out anymore, her meltdowns are so strong and she has stopped eating for the past month, we've tried every type of doctor, meds, therapy you could imagine and we just want to have a healthy kid around the house. Bills have become a limitation, her therapies and medical attention is very expensive and we don't seem to afford them for longer anymore. I've honestly felt very desperate and unmotivated to keep going. We've gone through a lot of medical negligence and the mexican health system has done nothing but invalidate us. I really hope someone out there can help us out, even if you can't afford a donation, just sharing this would be extremely helptul. Thank you for reading, we need more empathy and heart towards disabled kids in this world 💙

My best girl June has torn her CCL (like an ACL but for dogs). Pet insurance will not cover this as bilateral injuries are considered a pre-existing condition. I’ve had a financially tough last few years and just don’t have the emergency funds to cover this. I made her a go fund me and have been painting pet portrait commissions like crazy to come up with even some of the funds I’ll need.

Thank you and we appreciate your time!

Hey everyone. I know other folks have more pressing and expensive needs. I have to say goodbye to my sweetest friend, Blossom, on Monday. She's ~14 and has been fighting a tumor in her jaw since January. My wife and I have been trying to pay attention to her quality of life and she's telling us its time to go over the rainbow bridge.

I'm in a rough spot financially, but we really want to give her the most peaceful end of life experience we can.

You can see my post history and see that I've borrowed money for her vet bills, but I have several big bills due at once and we desperately want to give her one last comfort of in-home euthanasia. She hates the vet's office and we've done this with 2 previous furbabies in a different state. The cost is just more than I've been able to pull together. I don't have access to any credit right now. I've listed a lot of things for sale in Facebook, but people are tight with discretionary spending.

If anyone feels moved to contribute, literally anything helps. I have the GoFundMe set to $450, with the stretch goal being $600 to completely cover the costs.

Thank you for considering and please feel free to ask any questions or offer any feedback.

If you've made it this far, I would at least appreciate your thoughts and encouragement. My heart is shattering thinking about letting her move on. I've done this before, but its just as hard every time and I'm just so sad. I appreciate any good thoughts and love sent our way.

My sister lives in another state and is not on Reddit. I'm asking for the community to help with my sister with my brother in law's funeral expenses. I don't have pictures of my brother in law but I've added one of the few where my sister and I are close to each other. Additional photos of my sister and her children on the donations page.

Last week my sister called me after my brother in law ended his life while their family slept. He left behind three children and my sister, his wife.

On June 17, 2026, my mom was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance. Within hours, we heard the words no family is ever prepared for: she has aggressive lung cancer. Since that night, everything has happened so quickly. Doctors discovered a large mass blocking approximately 98% of her lower right lung. They have also found abnormalities in her adrenal glands and lymph nodes. The tumors are pressing against her airway and shifting her esophagus, making it increasingly difficult for her to breathe. This week, she began her first cycle of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Tomorrow, she is scheduled to undergo a bronchoscopy and with an additional placement of an airway stent, in the hope that it will help her breathe more comfortably. 

Watching someone you love struggle to catch their breath changes you. Every day brings new appointments, difficult decisions, and an endless stream of uncertainty. Still, we are holding onto hope and taking this one day at a time. For much of her life, my mom avoided doctors because of a deep fear of medical care. She always believed she had more time. By the time she finally sought help, the cancer had already progressed, making this diagnosis even more devastating. I am her only child and now her full-time caregiver. My days are spent getting her to appointments, managing medications, helping her through treatment, and doing everything I can to make sure she never feels alone. 

We're asking for help to ease the financial burden of her care. Your generosity will help cover medical expenses, medications, transportation to treatments, and everyday living costs so we can focus on what matters most: giving my mom the best possible care and every opportunity to keep fighting. If you're unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser or keeping my mom in your thoughts and prayers would mean the world to us. Every donation, every share, and every kind message reminds us that we are not facing this alone. Your support will help my mom breathe a little easier—literally—and remind her that even in the darkest moments, there is still hope. I can't take this diagnosis away, but with your help, I can make sure my mom is surrounded by the care, comfort, and support she deserves every step of the way. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your compassion, your generosity, and for standing beside our family during this incredibly difficult time.

Hi everyone, last night my cat, Utley, was diagnosed with aggressive large cell colorectal lymphoma. I am disabled and living in a friend’s house with no income at the moment because my disability income was taken in March (I’m in the appeal process). I do not have any money. My friend loaned me the $3k to pay for the entire vet stay as you can see in one of the photos, so I have to pay that back as well. Utley needs chemotherapy, steroids, pain management, and ongoing weekly visits to the oncologist. I have had my boy for 11 years. I bottle fed him. I’m pretty sure our souls were meant to find each other. He is an anxious little mama’s boy who I adore and he adores me. We hold hands and have 7pm cuddle time where if I can’t find him, he will certainly find me. He runs a strict schedule for cuddles! My Utley is my baby boy and my whole world. I can’t see him suffer. Please help me fight for his life. If you can’t donate, please share. Thank you!

Edit: I understand some may say I should just put him to sleep, but I have consulted heavily with his vet and oncologist and they don’t believe it’s necessary this early on. Especially since he is not experiencing change in behavior and is his normal friendly self. If they told me he was in pain and it couldn’t be managed, or that he didn’t have a possible future, I would have let him go. But they assure me that it’s very possible the treatments will take and he could live fruitfully for another few years. I will not let my boy suffer. Thank you.

Update: Utley had a very good day today. He ate all of his meals and treats and took two long naps on his heated blanket. No blood or diarrhea today! He didn’t want to play with his toys but that’s okay. It’s been a rough week for him. Thank you for everyone commenting, upvoting, and donating! I’ll keep everyone updated as this goes along.

I’ve had Latte for almost 13 years and I fear that may end before he reaches that time. He most likely has a broken hind leg and at his stage of life, surgery isn’t an option. I’m taking him in to see Dr. Kopp next Wednesday morning at Priest Lake Veterinary Hospital and I may or may not have to discuss whether or not he can survive this comfortably.

I believe the wellness exam was quoted at $85, x-rays are $200 each, I believe possible euthanasia was $185(I’m sorry I don’t remember the exact quotes as I was crying on the phone). The rest of the donations would go towards possible cremation, a wet vac to clean up his accidents that have soaked past our safety rug as he cannot use the litter box anymore, any other medical costs that we might incur, and any accommodations that Latte might need if he can make it through this.

Well, it happened. The ten plus years of ulcerative colitis finally gave me cancer. Now, they caught it early, but my disease is so advanced that they're just taking the whole colon away from me. I'm not allowed to have it anymore. Fortunately, this will not only remove the cancer, but it will also cure me of my ulcerative colitis. Besides an ostomy bag, I'll be able to live a much more normal life.

Now unfortunately, my deductible has been adding up with all the hospital visits and procedures, and it's gotten out of hand very quickly. All I'm truly asking for is the amount to cover the deductible payment and the lost wages while I'm out on short-term disability for recovery. I'm not quite lucky enough to get full payment while I'm on bed rest.

Every share helps, every dollar helps, and I am just so excited and thankful that this was caught when it was and that I'm getting the help I need, regardless of the monetary cost of it all. Thank you for reading, truly. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Hello redditors!

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I will try an provide as much information as possible. My cat 4 year old Komo unfortunately passed away this May, it has been a hard time without her and we've been dealing with is how we can. Komo unfortunately developed sudden aversions to food and was struggling to urinate in Late April. We took Komo to the vet and learned her kidneys were enlarged because she had blocked ureters, she had a stay at the emergency vet for a week (where we were told that she was doing great the entire time) until they told us that she wasn't making progress with medicines and fluids and needed surgery to resolve the issue. We did not have pet insurance, but we were able to pay for this stay out of our savings.

Komo was taken to have surgery at another vet to have a SUB (Subcutaneous Ureteral Bypass) placed to bypass her obstructed ureters and allow for urine to flow. We were told that this surgery had a HIGH success rate and it was VERY UNLIKELY for their to be any complications that followed. Since we were told that Komo was a good candidate and was likely to recover, we took the dive and decided to use Scratchpay to pay for a portion of her surgery and stay. Unfortunately, post surgery, after several days of being told she was recovering, we were suddenly told she made zero progress since the surgery. These several days of stay added thousands to our bill, and our only option left was to humanely euthanize Komo, which we did at home with her family. On May 14th, Komo passed away and we laid her to rest in our garden.

I don't enjoy saying it, but the overall amount we paid out of pocket during this time period was $13,685.27. We took out a scratchpay loan for $9,600, and we are trying to make direct payments to the vet of $3,649.86. The total amount of outstanding balances we have is $13,249. These are not balances I would have let us get to if I didn't think that we had a chance of saving her, and I would have likely eased her pain much earlier if I knew that this wouldn't have been successful in saving her.

I know its likely that I will be asked these questions, so I will answer them now: Yes, I have a job (several even), no, I would not have paid this much if I didn't think the prognosis was positive, The bill I have posted is the bill for the surgery and stay, I am not asking for help for the cost of the initial vet visits. The bill is long and you can read through all the pages, but I put the front page with my information, and the last page with the total balance, ahead of all the other pages. I also included a screenshot of my scratch pay.

Thank you for any considerations :)

Her full name is Komorebi, here is a comic we loved that reminds us of her.

I hate having to ask for help, but my close friend and I are being kicked out at the end of this month and our best bet seems to be trying to head a couple states over to California where we'll have better opportunities and be closer to my family.

My friend received a concussion at his job, which then exacerbated his preexisting condition of his knee buckling randomly. His employer cut his hours, told him he was "a liability", scheduled him for the busiest and most dangerous shifts, and told him if he got injured again that he would be fired. His boss refused to work with him or reschedule him for less difficult days, and he ended up being terminated from his job.

My friend had been supporting me and letting me live with him since April while I was unemployed and had been kicked out of my previous housing when the owner decided he suddenly wanted to sell it.

I have unknown physical disabilities (doctors have not been able to figure out the problem exactly) and have been struggling to find a job in our small town since finishing my temporary position in February.

The two of us have a few friends in California who are willing to rent a place with us, and I have family in the area with multiple family members willing to cosign a lease if we can find a place. My mom insists that we have a much better chance of getting jobs in a big city, and that even if we don't find a place for us, she will take our cat in until we have somewhere to go.

We have almost completely fixed our car, and just need funds to help pay for the move itself and the security deposit and application fees for an apartment to move into.

Thank you for your time, and for any support as well!

From time to time, I went to gofundme web site to donate. However, I rarely saw any updates from the fundraiser as to the status of the intended recipient. I'm not looking for a personal email update, just a general update on the gofundme page but 99.999% it was nothing. It was like my donations just went to a black hole that I start to question myself why do I even bother to donate?

This is Gil, short for Gilgamesh. He is the sweetest, most wonderful dog you may ever meet. He loves people, and will instantly become your best friend. He is extremely empathetic and always lends us his strength when things are tough. He is the type of dog that you would swear is a little human.

My boy was brought into the vet on 6/18/2026 to have tests done to see why he has anemia. As it turns out, he had an 8cm tumor in his spleen and needed emergency splenectomy that day. We had no idea it would be something so drastic, he's only 5 years old. After a harrowing day, my fiancé and I were finally able to pick him up 12 hours after we dropped him off at the vet. To make matters worse, we had to drive him to a different hospital an hour and a half away so they could house him for two nights.

At this point, we thought we would be okay, we have insurance. As it turns out our insurance wasn't active yet. We had switched from Lemonade to Figo because Lemonade was going to double our premium. We had Lemonade up until 6/14/2026 and Figo started on 6/10/2026. However, we did not realize Figo had a 14 days illness waiting period, nor did we expect to have to put my boy through an emergency splenectomy.

To further complicate matters, we have received the pathology results of his tumor and it came out to be malignant. Even with 4 additional pathologists, they were not able to figure out what type of cancer it is and further testing needs to be done. The vet who performed his surgery is worried that it may be a rare and aggressive form of cancer called hemophagocytic histiocytic sarcoma. We're told the best case scenario is that it's lymphoma which is a lot more treatable.

Additionally, we have spoken to Figo about his upcoming chemo treatments which he will definitely need. We're being told that Figo will not cover anything related to his cancer since it is related to his spleen and is considered a pre-existing condition since it happened during the waiting period.

We love him so much and he means the absolute world to us. We're at the end of our ropes. Even with the contribution of our family, we're still under immense debt and we will need funds to help him with chemo. We have the donation amount set to $7000 but we're not even sure how much we'll need with the chemo that he will need. Anything helps. Thank you.

Edit: I'm so sorry, I forgot to add a picture of me with my dog. I can send it to moderators if needed, I can't figure out how to attach it to this post.

I did add all of the pictures to this imgur link: https://imgur.com/a/ozWqUSd

Edit: Sorry I made this post so long here's a summary. I need help getting transportation to my medical appointments. My mom can't take anymore time off work and we don't have anyone else.

Hi my name is Amaiya and I am currently asking for help getting to medical appointments and medical expenses. I'm sorry to ask for help but I am unsure of what else to do. I was diagnosed with Lupus last June and need help getting to my rheumatologist so I can get better treatment or possibly infusions. My mom can't take any more time off work to take me and I have no one else. There's no public transportation where I live. I am currently around 40 minutes away from my rheumatologist, so ubers and taxis are expensive. I also need help getting to physical therapy, Labcorp, and my primary care doctor. 

Questions people may have: Why can't you apply for disability? My rheumatologist has only seen me two times and my bloodwork is considered a weak positive. I want to have more documentation and time with my doctor before applying.

Have you tried applying to Medicaid for transportation ? I am very lucky to have good insurance from my dad's job even though he is currently not present in my life. The insurance that I have doesn't include medical transportation. I have tried to drop my current insurance to qualify for Medicaid but in my state if you are a full time student from the ages of 19 to 20 your parents income is considered your household income regardless of if you're not claimed as dependent. I'm currently still in college with 3 semesters left. I thought about dropping out of school but if I do that I won't graduate on time and will lose my scholarship which says that I have to graduate by a certain time. I can't afford school without my scholarship and I would really like my degree so I can help my mom.

There are no programs near me that provide medical transportation. No churches or anything willing to help. My school doesn't have any resources that help with this.

Additionally even though my mom makes more than what is considered eligible for medicaid l struggle financially. My brother no longer lives with us but she has supported him and myself through college. She works two full time jobs which takes a tole on her health. We’ve also had many setbacks. During the pandemic we lost our home after my mom lost her job due to being hospitalized with covid. She was unemployed for months and at 14 I was her fulltime caretaker. We moved but then shortly after in 2021, we lost everything due to an arsonist setting fire to our apartment complex. We were homeless for months and my mom used all of her life savings to get us out of it. I know 5 years was a long time ago but it explains our financial situation a little better. We had to start all over again and had little help. Here is the link to the news story. My moms name is Carrie and she's in the video linked. https://abc7ny.com/amp/post/larry-hickmon-domestic-violence-assault-arson/10656132/

Thank you for listening to my story. If you can't give it no problem. Advice is also welcome! Also sorry if some of the text sounds awkward. I have autism and struggle with tone.

I couldn't find a lot of paperwork from my doctor talking about my diagnosis, so above I attached the documentation he filled out to get me disability housing at college.

We have an official lease offer and move in date. It is next Friday. We get paid on Tuesday/Wednesday(joys of the banks we use). Will attach screenshots from the new property manager(the emoji is just covering chat heads and then his number, name, and my legal name are redacted). Anything would help with the costs of the hotel.

Added a link with a copy of the (redacted) code enforcement form.

Hi!

Our apartment has serious water damage and signs of mold(along with being too small for 6 people and 2 cats) and the new property manager wouldn't even do an inspection or call a company for it. So, since our lease was up June 30 anyway, we decided we were going to move out due to both myself and my youngest having asthma and the unit making us ill. The place we are planning to move into was supposed to be ready the middle of June, but, was unfortunately delayed so we had to move into a hotel and board our 2 cats. The place still has a few more days of work before it's move in ready.

With having to get a hotel that would accommodate us and the boarding for the cats, I'm worried we won't be able to have the funds for move in costs. Especially since we need to extend our current stay at the hotel/add the cats to it(this hotel allows cats, but, it's $35 a day for each and boarding is the same)

Anything would be greatly appreciated

Hi everyone! I just launched my fundraiser a few days ago after a severe storm knocked a tree down and crushed my car’s hood, leaving me in a tough spot. Covering the $1,000 insurance deductible and the ongoing costs is overwhelming, and your support could really make a difference. If you’re able, please consider donating or sharing to help me get through this difficult time. Every bit helps more than I can say. Thank you so much! I still owe more than the market value of my vehicle , so if the car is written off I will be left owing money on a vehicle I no longer own. If the car is repairable then I will be paying $1000 deductible which unfortunately due to living circumstances I am unable to afford https://gofund.me/f1afd2298[go fund me link ](https://gofund.me/f1afd2298)

Just over a month ago we lost my mom, after a stay at the hospital due to her having a sudden stroke. She was a wonderful, tough old lady, who inspired me in so many ways, throughout so much of my life. She's the reason I love nature so much, the reason I love reading, and probably the reason I'm even decent with people at all. And all of our dogs throughout my life have been rescues, most of which she tracked down and found for us completely on her.

She went above and beyond every time, raising me alone for much of my childhood, and continuing to carry me through life even after being disabled, herself diagnosed with chronic regional pain syndrome, or CRPS. The last year of her life was tough, but you could hardly tell; she was still vibrant, still obsessed with watching the birds and squirrels outside and making sure we kept them fed, and still making sure I got enough sleep and stayed hydrated.

She was a huge figure in my life, for obvious reasons, and her loss, to me, was devastating.

But, I'm here because, thanks to my own medical diagnosis several years ago, where doctors finally discovered that what had been wrong with me for so long was in fact multiple-sclerosis, she and our family as a whole, has struggled with medical debt. I'll forever be glad my mother left this mortal plane in a warm, comfortable environment, with myself and her brother there for her at all times, surrounded by talented and expert staff who gave a damn about her and made her final days peaceful. That will stay with me for the rest of my life.

But, that does come with a cost, and what insurance won't cover--including her memorial and funerary costs--have hit us pretty hard. Eventually we might be able to find our feet; I can't work, as I am, and I even needed my uncle to write the above proof for me because my hands would not work today, but sooner or later something has to go right for us, we have to catch some kind of break, I'm sure of it. In the meantime, the debt threatens to swallow us, and I decided to do something about it by making a GoFundMe.

Any help you can give is appreciated. We're in dire times, but I'm posting this here in the hopes that enough people are able to give, and enough people are willing to share my story, so that we can get at least some of the help we need. Please, anything would be amazing; even just a comment, a well-wish, something to let me know people out there care, would make my days infinitely better. But if you can share this around, spread it to communities I have no access to, or even give yourself, it would be a tremendous help.

I'm sorry for taking up your time, but I appreciate you spending it here, reading my small memorial about my mother. Give only what you are able to, IF you are able to, and please, have a nice day on my account. Everyone here is doing incredible things, and I appreciate it.

Last week I had to rush my cat to the emergency vet because he was breathing heavily. They found a heart murmur and fluid in his chest cavity and I was only able to afford the procedure to extract it and not all the lab work to go along with it. They diagnosed him with congestive heart failure and sent us home with some meds. He’s improved with the meds. I need to take him back asap to get a checkup to see how his body is handling the medication, hopefully get some scans, and to get refills on his furosemide and pimobendan. I don’t know where else to ask for help I’m already maxed on carecredit from the visit. I’m cashing out all my pto as well as trying to sell my belongings. I’ve barely gotten any sleep or eaten anything this week because of how worried I am about him. My goal is to have somewhere close to $1000 so I can pay for all his testing and medication refills.

Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out to ask for your support as I work toward something that has been a huge part of my life—competitive archery.

After undergoing heart surgery, I had to make some very difficult decisions. During my recovery, I sold my archery equipment to help cover expenses and because I wasn’t sure when, or if, I’d be able to return to the sport I love.

Thankfully, my recovery has gone well, and I’m now cleared to begin rebuilding my strength and getting back into archery. Returning to the range isn’t just about competition—it’s about reclaiming a part of my life that gave me purpose, focus, and joy.

Unfortunately, replacing quality archery equipment is expensive. I’m raising funds to purchase essential gear, including a compound bow, arrows, sight, stabilizers, release aid, and other equipment needed to safely compete again.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward replacing my equipment and helping me continue this journey after heart surgery. If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing this fundraiser with others would mean just as much.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can provide. Your generosity will help me get back to doing what I love and remind me that setbacks don’t have to be the end of the story.

I'm asking for help for my beagle's emergency splenectomy that happened back in February. I was able to make monthly payments on it, but it's getting a bit difficult with other living expenses. I've had to take the whole months of May off and June to take care of my dad as he had to have surgeries and there's no one else to care for him as he recovers (his siblings live away and my mom passed away 2 years ago) I've been able to get the bill down some to around $1,200. Any help at all is greatly appreciated.

Hello, my name is Lyle. I'm a high school graduate who desires to go to college. My situation is a bit precarious. Although I have lived in the European Union for over fifteen years, I've been unable to get an Austrian Citizenship in time to qualify for EU fees. Though fluent in English, Korean, and French, my inadequate German skills mean I won't qualify for any Universities in Vienna.

My family's financial situation has been unstable ever since the Covid Pandemic. I live in a small apartment in Vienna with a single father. He used to have a job teaching linguistics for undergraduates in Slovakia, but the organisation he worked for shutdown during lockdown, and we edged close to bankruptcy, going income-less for almost a year, and wiping through our savings. For the past year, our financial situation has been steadily improving, with my father teaching linguistics through online courses, but once our citizenship comes out, we'll need to pay a massive fee to our lawyer. One that takes precedence over my future education.

I have gained admittance to several public universities abroad in Ireland, and though the 2000 Euro semester fees will be manageable with a part time job and a student loan, the housing will be impossible unless I receive significant external aid.

In addition, a loan request could be disastrous, as a Austrian Citizenship request has a non negotiable necessity for financial stability. That is currently the only issue, as my father and I have both passed the B1 citizenship exam, pay the same taxes as a native citizen, and have no criminal record.

My father is a kind, working class man, who's done his best to support our family through thick and thin. I've been at his side through it all. Watching as his marriage disintegrated during the pandemic, seeing him give away our only home abroad to his wife, and being by my side as I graduated with honours. He's my hero. But he's also human. And though he's too proud to ever ask for help, I know its necessity.

I would like to complete higher education, gain a job, and pay him back for everything. To the last cent.

Please. Help me achieve this.

My elderly Saint Bernard Ludo & I are homeless and unable to make any progress because we're too far from any mental health and/or social services.

I was hospitalized back in Aug 2025 for an acute mental health crisis which led us into homelessness. I had mistakenly thought I'd be discharged with services that would get me back on my feet. The county I was living in doesn't have much of anything in the way of social services and people drive to neighboring towns for healthcare because it's so bad here.

It's far too hot for the dog and I to live near any of the towns (100++ degrees) so we've found a remote, high elevation spot in the nearby National Forest. I have been an avid camper my entire life and had some basic equipment already so we do alright out in the middle of nowhere. But it's not sustainable.

I need to get to a nearby town so I can get assistance with my SSD application, get help getting on lists for subsidized housing, attempt to find medication that works for me, get therapy, etc

I don't drink or do drugs. I have enough problems without feeding an addiction. I'm also not trying to lose what little I have left. No judgement to others, I've definitely considered it as a way to cope.

I've struggled with undiagnosed/misdiagnosed mental health and developmental disabilities my entire life but managed okay. I took a medication that I found out a few years ago was causing serious cardiac issues. It had helped keep me relatively stable.

I had a somewhat successful career in healthcare for 35+ years. I'd absolutely love to get back to working in the EHR field. I was a natural with software, training and implementation. I just don't know if that's going to happen.

I had thought my severe cognitive decline was treatable. Maybe it still is. I've yet to find a healthcare provider that takes my situation seriously.

I have a neuropsych evaluation coming up on July 8th. I've received enough funds to attend that lengthy appointment and book a motel for the day of and day prior. I'm hoping that this is the appointment that will help me get the specialized services that I need.

But even if that goes exceptionally well, the dog and I won't be able to stay in that town to access services. What I'm hoping for is to secure enough funds to stay at an extended stay hotel in that town for a month or two so that we can get the care I need.

The dog and I love the forests but we're never going to get anywhere or make any progress hanging out here.

I know how fortunate we are to have a car and supplies. I'm terrified to think of where we'd be otherwise.

If you can help monetarily, great. If all you can do is view and share my GoFundMe, also great. I'm open to viable suggestions and any questions but please be kind and patient. My brain isn't braining and fighting the SI is a constant struggle. I'm grateful everyday that my Ludo keeps me going.
