my dad was just taken by ambulance to the ER because his entire left side of his body went numb while he was taking a bath and no one in his house has a working car
so now my dad is probably going to be staying in the hospital for awhile again and responsibilities are going to default to me (which is FINE. i love my dad, i want to help.) but i’m super fucking broke and stretched fucking thin as it is, so having to pay for gas to drive 3 hours home and spend money while i’m there is making me fucking panic
this is what i mean when i say it’s impossible to save money when you’re poor. every day brings with it an increased potential for having your life turn upside down because you have no money.
please keep us in your thoughts, y’all.
and if you could reblog my donation post or send some help my way, i would be so grateful. and i promise i am 10000% more angry/disappointed/ashamed about having to ask than you are about having to see it, though i’m sure it doesn’t feel like it. 😦
Just got off the phone with my papa. He had a stroke and he’s in the ICU again.
I really can’t afford to go home right now. I was planning on going in a few weeks when my mom gives me money she owes me so that I could afford the gas, and two trips in such a short amount of time is impossible with the amount of money I (don’t) have.
It costs me about $50 to drive home and back, and I usually spend about $50 when I’m there because I’m responsible for buying my own groceries when I’m home, and I’m expected to help out my family with other things when I’m there like gas money, toiletries, etc.A free stay at home doesn’t exist in my family. Plus you just need to have money when you’re at a hospital because leaving to go home and cook and then come back is SO inconvenient. All of this is a mess.
If you’d like to help me, I would sincerely appreciate it, but I know most people are struggling right now.
