Im New Here! Could Anyone Offer Advice Or Help?

[Guest macke]

Im new here! I am a 33 year old m2f. I was taking hormones for about six months and had to stop. I had to come up with the money to get custody of my daughter. Right now i have custody of her but the sad part is im going to lose her again due to my utilities being cut off. The judge told me to keep a stable place and a stable job and keep it fit to live which includes utilities. I just can t believe im going to lose her over a 300 dollar utility bill. especially after paying out 3 grand to get custody of her. I have problems at work so i cant get ahead. I got demoted cause they said my position is no longer needed! Yeah right they are holding it against me for being t/s. So they cut back my hours and dollars per hour. Which i got worked out and i will make more money in a week or so when i start a new position. But it wont be in time to get the utilities paid. I am so sad and extremely depressed right now! If i lose her again it will be the well lets just say its not going to be a happy life. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated My babys name is Hannah and she is 5. Shell be 6 in January! Ive pretty much exhausted every option i could think of. Ive even gace blood and tried asking the state for help but they say i mkae to much! Yeah right! Most the people including my family dont talk to me anymore since i came out. Id love to go get another job if i could get a babysitter in the pm hours. Ive found a few but they want so much for watching her. I just couldnt afford it and it would be worth the second job. Id be paying it all to gas and babysitting! Ill be fine in a few weeks i just need to figure a way to get the utilities paid so i dont lose her and have to goto court again and them making me feel like i am a low life father trying to be something i am not. It was pure hell in there. This isnt a scam or a lie. I could show you proof of all of this. I would do anything to save her feom leaving me again!!! Please any suggestion??Please

Thank you Macke

Hello Macke,

Do you have any friends you could borrow the money from? Have you tried getting a short term personal loan from a bank or lending company?

Ive tried it it. I have no credit to get a bank loan. I have no colateral for any other loan>my car is to old for a title loan. I tried to sell it but i got no offers. It is a 1984 cavalier with 200000 miles on it. With rust all over it! I do wok but it dont make much. If it wasnt for court and fees id be fine. I dont want anyone here thinking im a scam artist or a liar. I will show anyone proof who doesnt believe me! Ive stopped buying hormones ive been out for a few weeks. I feel horible. Any other suggestions?Thank you!

Hello Macke,

The only other options I can think of would be to go to the Salvation Army or the church you attend. Most churches have funds set up to help the needy. I doubt that either would give you cash in hand but they might be willing to pay some of your utility bills directly. I would think that you would have to have proof that you are indeed in need of help before they would, though. You have my sympathy. I hope all works out for you.

Have you tried calling the Utility company(s)? They might be able to set something up for you.

I know its been a while since this topic has been commented on, but does anyone know what happened to her and her daughter in the end?

Macke last signed in on the 18th of January 2008 and has not been seen since. Although I hope I'm wrong, I suspect that this might have been a scam.
