Please help my family and I. I am a 17year old girl. We have been through the worst of times lately. My father had a heart attack and he had to have open heart surgery he flat lined twice on the operating table we were so close to losing him. He had 6 bypasses done and 2 stents.He continues to have severe fevers and respitory problems he cant even go with my mom and i to the store because he gets to hot and loses his breath. since the surgery he has had numerous faint heart attacks and had to  be rushed to the emergency room quite regularly. my family is falling apart depression has kicked in due to the lack of funds. every month something gets so close to being turned off . i cant participate in any school functions or even just go to the movies with my friends because i dont have any money. my mom cant work either she cant afford to take my dad to his much needed doctors appointments. Stress is making us crazy we have to go and see a family counselor whenever we can afford it . churches were helping us but they stopped and my other family members dont have enough money to help us. i couldnt even afford to buy a prom dress my school counselor bought my dress jewelry and paid my 100 dollar prom fees.my dad cant afford his copays on his medicines and mom cant afford to go pick them up. it seems as if every one has turned there backs on us. we really need help, so if you could find it in your hearts to help us in any way possible it would be greatly appreciated.

        Hi! My name is Garrence Kennedy 42 years old and I reside in Milwaukee, WI. I was diagnosed with a Hernia in November of 2006, and have been unable to have the surgery or to find a good paying job as they all have some physical work. I am currently earning $8.00 per hour and cannot raise my Ten year old on those kind of wages. The company I work for has not offered me any health insurance, any kind of aide. If any one knows how I might be able to come up with the money for the surgery, please let me know. I will accept any kind of help that is given. PLEASE HELP!
