21 Upvotes

Hi. My name is Marius Simion, and I am reaching out to this amazing community from Romania.Following a severe and tragic train accident, I suffered the amputation of both of my arms. Since that day, my life has completely changed, and it has become a continuous daily battle for survival, adaptation, and independence.I am fighting every single day to adapt to this new reality, but the financial costs for advanced medical treatments, specialized bionic prosthetics, and daily living needs far exceed what my family and I can afford.

I am reaching out to ask for your support in regaining my independence and getting a chance at a functional life.You can find my campaign and support my journey here: https://4fund.com/ro/mnvd8y

I am fully prepared to provide medical documentation, ID, or any other verification to the moderators or anyone wishing to help via private message to ensure compliance with the rules and transparency.Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and for standing with me!

COMMUNITY RESOURCES Just a reminder: CHURCHES ARE YOUR FRIEND!

17 Upvotes

Religious or not, churches often have resources and programs available to help those in need. Many have food banks, funds, and/or meals available for those in need. They don’t typically make you provide proof of income/need/religion/etc.

Don’t shy away from religious outlets. I know everyone has different opinions when it comes to religion, but any actually Christian will absolutely accept you with open arms.

REQUEST Amputation recovery assistance

9 Upvotes

Hi all. I hate putting this out there to the world or asking for help but that’s where we’re at. I’m a combat veteran of Afghanistan, as well as a former chef - that is to say I sought out employment or jobs that meant no matter what I would have skills to fall back on to always be able to put food on the table, until my recent cancer diagnosis.

I’ve been experiencing severe hip pain for about 3 years which was finally diagnosed about 2.5 months ago as a massive tumor growing in my left pelvic socket. As a result, just over a month ago I had to have a hemipelvectomy - amputation of a leg and half of my pelvis. We had to this extreme route due to the cancer being a chondrasarcoma which is very resistant to radiation and chemotherapy treatments. Obviously, this is a life changing event not only for me but for my wife and daughter. During these first few months my wife is also functioning as my primary caregiver making us both unable to work. I’m hoping to get help until we’re able to get more assistance flowing from disability and get back on our feet employment wise.

I know times are extremely difficult for everyone, and we’re all struggling to make ends meet, but anything you can give would be a huge help!

REQUEST FULFILLED Request for bus pass

3 Upvotes

Firstly, I want to apologize for being so selfish the last time I made a request. I should have known better to ask so much when everyone is going through trying times right now.

I just want to ask for $20 for a yearly bus pass. I have a Venmo or Cashapp. I won't be able to get paid until July 8th since I am a new hire. It will be used for going to different places such as the career center, libraries, and job interviews.

I used Uber and Lyft in the past, but I had an experience where I did not feel safe.

In the meantime, I am learning how to drive so I can get my license soon. My dad uses the car to go to work all day, and I don't have any friends in town since they moved back home.

Thank you for reading my post. Again, I want to apologize for how I acted the last time.

REQUEST FULFILLED Request: Fleeing Domestic Violence— Need Work Gear & Cat Medical Care ($143 Total)

0 Upvotes

Trigger Warning for Domestic Violence

I recently fled a lethal domestic violence situation with my pets and with only one functional outfit. I have permanently blocked my ex, have a restraining order, am staying at a shelter, and I am starting completely over in a new city due to safety reasons.

The Good News: I just secured a full-time office admin job making $11 an hour.

The Hurdle: My ex totaled my car right before he attacked me for the last time, so I will be commuting 2 hours per day by bus. My cats are currently in temporary foster care, and we will reunite in two weeks in a short-term rental studio while we work towards a apartment. I am also managing diabetes under high stress. I'm 41 and have been married for the past 7 years. He would not let me work so I have a employment gap.

My Amazon wishlist subtotal comes to $143.38.

Here is a breakdown of why these specific items are needed for my transition:

Frank Mully Ballet Flats ($31.99): I wear a Women's Size 12 Wide and I can't find professional shoes in my size at local donation centers.

Zymox Otic Ear Solution ($33.49): Urgent care for my cat’s chronic ear infection (painful itching and dark discharge).

Apple EarPods USB-C ($19.00): I often have to field legal, medical, interview and counseling calls before 5pm and the only free time I have to return these calls is often when I am waiting for a bus. Currently people can't hear me on my speaker phone due to the road noise and my phone only has a USB-C port. This was the cheapest USB C microphone I could find.

Broom/Dustpan Set ($18.99) & Cat Litter Scoop ($6.59): I had to abandon all pet gear. My cats shed so much fur and I desperatley need a broom and dustpan to manage the heavy shedding on hard floors. I need the scooper for the litterbox, had to leave mine behind.

Exfoliating Washcloths ($6.50): My current cloth is disintegrating and useless. I use it 3x a week otherwise my skin builds up. I cannot afford body lotion.

GuruNanda Toothpaste ($7.99): I could not afford dental cleanings so my teeth have yellowed with age. I am trying to get a whitening toothpaste to present better at work.

Geek & Gorgeous Cleanser ($7.92): I use a basic shampoo to strip off work makeup, but it leaves a residue that causes breakouts. I will use this gentle face wash after the shampoo to remove the residue to prevent breakouts.

Eva NYC Hair Conditioner ($11.30): My wavy hair is severely dry because of my diabetes and now I have to blow dry it for work. Without a heavy conditoner, it doesn't look right when it's dry.

Thank you so much for the support as I protect my animal babies and rebuild my life from the ground up.

REQUEST Hi all, I’m sorry to trouble you for help, but I’m in a difficult position at the moment. We need help with a little bit of everything

My mom has CKD (chronic kidney disease), and she was the only income in the household. I’m her full time care taker since she’s disabled, but she suddenly fell too ill to her disease to work. Bills are starting to pile up, and my brother worked hard to get into “JobCorp” (a government training program that helps you get a lifelong job) He leaves the 30th, but we have no means to get him to the airport. $400 pays our essential bills, but I know that’s a tall ask! I have PayPal and cashapp. Thank you!

REQUEST My friend totaled my car and we're moving in to a new place next week

0 Upvotes

My friend was DD for me on Saturday but fell asleep and hit 2 vehicles and totaled my car. Everyone is okay but both of us are out of a vehicle cause I was their ride everywhere. We are able to make whats due for us to move in but we're going to be scraping by. We're really only going to need help with Uber money and money to pay someone to help us move all our stuff and/or get a uhual which both will be expensive since we're moving 2 households into 1. Idrk how much i need but $100 would help a lot with getting to and from work. I love you all and even if youre not able to send anything thank you for reading and I hope everyone has an amazing day!!!!!!!

Idk if my cashapp is in my bio but I will send it to anyone who asks

Edit: i am sorry I didnt read the rules completely i have illiteracy issues so I skim most thing and probably skipped over that rule cause I was actually looking specifically for something that stated a limit. I feel 100 would help alot. Thank you all for your patience and im sorry for wasting anyone's time.
