Hi Starshine,

Thank you for all of your information, it is much appreciated. As for the free dental clinic there isn't any in my city and no other cities neaby cover my area. I 've tried to see if a dentist would help or take a discounted amount..but to no avail. Oh, and the Salvation Army doesn't have any diapers at all. They pretty much have run out of everything..

          I am now living with a friend, my boys' and I stayed at a homeless shelter for 3 months after we were evicted from out last place due my place of work closing down. We have a roof over our head, now our main concerns are diapers and food. I feel awful knowing that christmas is coming and I won't be able to get my boys anything, and they really do need some clothes and diapers.. But there's nowhere to go but up when you've hit rock bottom. I found a part-time job, after taxes it comes out to be 90 a week. Which is only enough for helping for the rent and gas to get to work. When the diapers run out next week, I don't know what I'll do. I'm still looking for a better job. It makes it all the worse that I don't have medical insurance, I need 3 fillings very badly and I can't find a free dental clinic for adults or even anyone willing to take payments at all. Tylenol and asprin can't do but so much..

          But I thank God I am alive, and my boys' are alive and healthy everyday. I'm hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel, right now it would be a miracle.

I too, as so many of you all are in a financial hardship. I live in Edenton,NC , the place I was working at closed down (they only gave me a 6 hour notice) and I do not qualify for unemployment because I did not make enough to qualify. I have a 2 month old and a 22 month old, 2 little boys. I am now working odd jobs until I can find a stable one. I have the money for utilities, but not for my rent. When I moved here I chose the cheapest place to make sure I could afford it just in case something did happen, but I didn't count on being layed off so abruptly and didn't predict the economy's downturn. My rent is $450. All charities have no funds, DSS was no help due to so many people applying and I have applied for section 8 but it will take atleast a year to get it. My rent was due May,1rst, and my eviction notice will be here in two days. If anyone can help, please email me. I will be forever greatfull.
