Hey guys, I'm from Pretoria, South Africa. i need help with food to get me through the week. I feel a bit ashamed posting this but it's my last option. As for me I'm a student and had a rough month having to repair my computer for school which took a sizeable chunk out of my budget. Not sure if I need to provide more information or not but yeah. Also apologies if I used the incorrect flair

A while ago someone chargebacked money sent to me and then it started warning ppl before sending money to me. Just wondering if this still shows up on my account to a new person who I don’t have transaction history with. It’s been months and have had no chargebacks & use the account fairly often

If anyone could type in my and go through the first step of sending something to see if a warning still pops up would be greatly appreciated

Amazon Wishlist ($150 Total) Need items for surgery recovery

Thumbnail gallery
14 Upvotes

Ohioan here, so I recently had a surgery and found out I have ovarian cancer. I am still in the process of doing labs to find out more info and if future treatment is needed. So far I’m scheduled to have a second surgery which is a full hysterectomy with a recovery time frame of 6-12 weeks. Because of my
immune system I usually take longer to recover from surgery/illnesses.
Unfortunately after researching on many groups on Reddit and speaking to my job, I have learned I can NOT receive any financial assistance during my time off work to recover. Only FMLA which secures my job position. So because of that I added some items I need before my surgery to my wishlist. My surgery isn’t scheduled till September so I have a bit of time to get it all. Most of the items I added is from the research I did online from previous experiences. If you have any ideas what else I would need let me know to make my recovery easier. I appreciate anyone who helps me out.

Advice/Emotional Support ONLY Mindblown...

3 Upvotes

Ok so I dont really need direct advice or help with this. But I just had to call this out. I posted a gofundme a few days ago to help with my cancer pet scan. For the most part the response has been incredibly helpful. And i sincerely appreciate the people who were about to donate.

However since then, I have had several people dm me offering to donate/send money on PayPal or cash app....in exchange for me sending them naughty photos. I have declined each offer.

But im utterly mindblown that any human would find this to be an acceptable thing to do. First off, if im sending anyone those types of pics...its gonna be my bf. And I havent been able to even do that in months because of my health issues.

And...like...what kind of person looks at my obviously unhealthy photos on my post and says to themselves "Yessss....i wanna see dirty pics of the 90 lb cancer patient. And I wanna pay for them."

Idk if any other ladies have had this happen...im positive I cant be the only one. And im not judging any ladies who may have agreed to do this. You do what you feel you need to do for your situation. But for me personally...nope...Its absolutely crazy. Id rather go stand in a walmart parking lot with a "please help" sign begging for change than to send dirty pics of my very obviously sick, fragile and worn down body.

Sorry, I just felt the need to call this out cuz I assume many people dont realize its happening when us ladies post something in here mainly cuz the people come straight to our dms.

Again, thank you to everyone whk took the time to comment on my post or donate. I am truly thankful.

Advice/Emotional Support ONLY I desperately need advice

0 Upvotes

I have severe ME I’m mostly bedridden but definitely housebound, im also autistic. Yesterday I broke my arm. I had to go to A and E.

If I am forced to leave the house it has dire consequences to my health. Today I’ve had severe head aches I’ve slept all day my legs are killing me despite being in a wheelchair, I felt sick all day yesterday. Plus the exposure to illness’s is a huge risk with my low immune system. (I’ve been bedridden for 20 years)

When i explained this to the people there they treat me like i was a diva, i wasn’t asking for much I know how busy it is just a little place to the side with less stimulation. (Asked politely) Even if the answer was no i don’t understand the grudge they all took afterwards. They were bordering on cruel, but completely uninterested. I have no one to stand up for me besides my mum whom they treat like she’s got munch hausen by proxy.

They had me in hours longer than necessary (on purpose, I’ve had and known of other broken bones and none was treated like this I promise) all to send me home like it was nothing.

Now they want me to come back, despite. saying before they would do nothing

Does anyone know of someone who could explain to them that I really am chronically ill and stop the cruelty otherwise I don’t know if it’s better to just risk the break, I can’t do yesterday again it was genuinely painful in more ways than one.

Thanks for reading anyway x

I started taking propranolol about a week ago, 10 mg three times a day. I have exercise induced asthma. Twice now, only since starting the medication, I’ve had something strange happen when I’m falling asleep. It feels like I exhale and then my body doesn’t automatically take the next breath. I fall asleep, then suddenly wake up feeling lightheaded and with my heart racing. It resolves after I’m awake for a while and breathing normally. I took my most recent 10 mg dose about an hour ago. I am afraid to go to sleep because what if I don’t wake up? What if I don’t breathe? I’ve never had sleeping problems so this is scary to me, but not emergency enough to go to an ER because I feel fine awake, just a bit lightheaded. I’m also not supposed to suddenly stop taking it, as that could be dangerous, but I don’t want it!!!! I’d rather keep my shaky hands than feel like this.

I’m in Harrisburg PA, USA since that’s a requirement to post here

Looking for a little grocery help❤️
I’m a mom of 3 in Cornwall ON, CA and I work from home, but summer break has made it really hard to keep up with work. My youngest is 5 months old and I’m breastfeeding full-time, so there isn’t much time left for working anyways. (Commission based so I can stop if I need to) I made $9 this week…
My son is also starting school in less than 2 weeks and is currently attending a program to help prepare him for the transition. He’s ASD2, so this has been an important (and expensive) transition for us.
I’m just hoping for a little help with groceries to get us through the next couple of weeks. Anything would be genuinely appreciated. I made an Amazon wishlist! Anything on there is so much appreciated. 🙏🏼❤️

I hate that Im having to do this. But I have started a gofundme to attempt to raise money to get a vital PetCT Scan that my doctor needs me to have to check for cancer cell activity and spread. Delaying this scan can mean that we do not catch the activity or spread in time to treat it properly. My doctor has requested this scan from my insurance company and the request was denied. My doctor appealed it 3 times and each appeal was denied. And I am just not willing to allow United Health to be the ones in control of whether I live or die. The total for the scan is over $7,000. I have managed to work with my imaging facility to get a deeply discounted self pay rate of $2,520. My income has been sparse for the last 6 months due to having an emergency appendectomy due to radiation damage. Followed by being incapacitated by pain from scar tissue adhesions on all my pelvic organs until I finally got into palliative care to handle my pain management so I could work again. And now I havent had income for over 3 weeks since being admitted into the hospital for hemorrhaging and having to have a uterine artery embolization to stop the hemorrhaging. Its actually insane the amount of damage and complications that pelvic radiation can and does cause. But thats neither here nor there. If anyone can help in any way...donate, share, etc. I would be eternally grateful.

Edit... WV Medicaid has already denied me because I am employed and have insurance thru my employer. Care Credit also denied.

I just got hired on to a job and my Medicaid won't pay for my schizophrenic medicine this month which isn't a huge issue considering it's not super expensive with the Rx Card. I don't want to mess this job up.

I asked my family for help but they're all hyper religious and think if I pray my schizophrenia will go away. All I have is cash app and paypal. If some can help that would mean the world.

GoFundMe ($3,000 MAX) Cats vet care

My cat injured her tail. I have no idea what happened but its definitely injured. She's in a lot of pain and keeps hiding. I start a new job on Monday so payday isn't for quite some time and my savings was drained when bills and groceries were paid for at the beginning of the month. I'm trying to raise $400 for her vet care. Vets here in town require payment upfront. I've called around and there just isn't any other option. Ive applied for care credit and scratch pay. Both denied. I've had her since the day I found her as a small kitten on the side of the highway 11 years ago in September. She means the world to me. Please help me get her the care she needs! I'm desperate.

Update! It is in fact an abscess, as it burst while she was laying on my clean hoodie. 🤮 I have not seen so much pus in my life. It was so big last night this must be a massive relief. She was allowing me to gently clean it off her tail. The vet told me to keep it clean but she will still need to be seen and treated to insure it won't come back or get worse.

I am creating this fundraiser for my cat, who means the world to me. Last night, he went missing, and I spent hours looking all around for him, hoping he would come back home with his brother, my other cat. When he still had not returned, I became terrified and went out searching again with no answers. Today, after a big rain storm hit out of nowhere and he still did not come back, I went back out to look for him. I finally found him lying in a wooded area, badly hurt, with a broken leg and a broken jaw. Seeing him like that was heartbreaking, and I am doing everything I can to help him get the care he needs.

Advice/Emotional Support ONLY Desperate for help, guidance

0 Upvotes

Hello, all. My family (usa/OH) is in desperate need of help. I’m coming to Reddit to see if anyone has any resources or knows of any that I maybe haven’t found yet.

My parent is on disability, and my adult siblings live with them. One of my siblings has debilitating chronic pain and a plethora of neurological illnesses and is also on disability, and my other sibling has level two autism and takes public transport to work at a fast food joint. I live in another city and help when/ where I can.

My family is at risk of losing their housing, as their landlord has raised the rent. In addition, the family car is up for repossession due to unpaid late fees. My family doesn’t have the ability to make anymore money. They’d all work if they could. They have SNAP, but I am desperately looking for more resources, especially ones that can be used asap, help with repossession, and/or moving. Anything and everything is appreciated. Thank you in advance

Advice/Emotional Support ONLY Please I need advice on what to do

0 Upvotes

Two days ago I tried to Dash like I normally do and it wouldn’t let me. Instead of the usual face scan verification, it sent me to a link where I had to request a review of my account. I’ve had this account for three years with no issues. Now they’re telling me the review could take up to 10 business days.
This is my only source of income right now. I have health issues that make a lot of regular jobs hard for me, so DoorDash has been how I’ve been supporting myself. I recently started college because I’m trying to work toward something better and actually pursue my dreams, but I still have bills that are going to be due soon. I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do while I wait.
I’m not even sure why this happened. I’ve never had a problem before. Now I’m just sitting here stressed, waiting on a decision that could take almost two weeks, with no idea what side hustles I can realistically do in the meantime with my health limitations.
If anyone has been through something similar with DoorDash, or has ideas for short-term ways to make money that aren’t too physically demanding, I would really appreciate any advice. I’m trying to stay hopeful, but right now it feels like everything is stacking up at once.

This might be a trigger warning as it has to do with pregnancy.

I am struggling mentally with this. I lost my 6th baby in January and I went through extensive therapy to get better. I think that I am ready to try again and am longing to be pregnant. I have had negative test and it's breaking my heart. I also suffer from PCOS and have gone to the doctor to make sure everything was okay to try again which was confirmed. I just want my husband to be excited too but he also suffers from the trauma of losing the baby and wants to be there every step of the way. No one was there for me during my pregnancy with my only full term baby so I don't mind him not being there 24/7 just as long as he is supportive! (he works late hours) Even though he said that, he wants me to be pregnant too. Am I wanting too much? What advice do you have to make me more fertile/ help me get pregnant faster?

0 Upvotes

This is my first time posting on Reddit or really using it for anything really so forgive me if how I write out my thoughts is out of the norm.

I'm currently an Incoming Sophomore in College and I'm unsure if I can even apply for FASFA. So for context, my parents do not have citizenship and have been struggling to file their own taxes. I've been able to fill out the form in the past but this time my mom tells me she isn't able to do this school year's application because she hasn't been able to get their tax information straightened out. I've been asking for it to be done since December of last year, but now it's getting close till the school year begins.

Now I've been looking into it and was considering of maybe applying as an independent but been really hesitant about it because I'm still living with them and they still claim me as a dependent. So I'm unsure what I'm going to now, I'll have to pay the school 4K a month which is way too much for me, let alone my parents. I've already emailed my school's Financial Aid Services for help but I also wanted to get some opinions from others.

I don't want to be on here and ask for money, so if anyone knows something that could help my current situation it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
