Help I am technically a single father. With 8 kids and two extremely handicapped boys. I raised 7 of the 8. Most are grown and 2 currently live with me. I do have a live in Gf but my kids are ultimately my responsibility. I have been disabled for about 4yrs. My gf did help me support my son when we first got together but I was also getting cs. Then he moved out and my last ex wife asked me to take my two daughters. One is my bio age 9 and the other is my step but only knows me as her father age 11. So I said yes. We took them November of 2016. We have slowly been sinking. Credit card after credit card. Maxing then all out. My gf then got sick with pneumonia at end of 2017 and Jan of 2018, having pneumonia 3 total times. She has been out of work since. She is unable to help. So we are out of funds. We r struggling bad. This month we have maybe $40 to last the rest of the month. I went to visit my two handicapped boys yesterday and had to get gas money off my daughter. My kids are so sweet, my one daughter said she would by her friend a bday gift with her own money. She is 9. This makes me feel so bad. We live in subsidized housing and we have no car payments. I just changed feel providers to save money per month and I cancelled cable. We goto food banks and we r trying to survive. My young kids don’t understand. We r hoping my gf gets ssd. Her case goes in front of the judge in December we r told. If we get this money from all of u. It won’t fix us but it will help us this month and beginning of next month. We don’t drink, smoke or drug at all. So no money is wasted. If u have any questions plz feel free to ask. I am an open book and have no problem sharing my story. I am also a recovering addict with over 6yrs 100% clean and sober and I am extremely proud of that and so are my kids and gf. Thankyou in advance. ❤️.
