I am in dire need of a place to rent or stay until I can get a place. My 11 yr old son & I have been sleeping in a Uhaul for a few nights I am so tired & so sick of crying but I dont let my son see me cry. I pray no stop but I am almost out of faith. I was in a serious situtation in Texas so a lady my son knew from his school helped us get a Uhaul to get out of that state I was promised a place to stay when we got here to Missouri only to be fooled & now we are not doing so good & I dont want to lose our clothes & the only things my son has in this Uhaul I just want to have a roof & I will be able to pay rent come the 1st or so but right now a motel room would be great just to lay down. God knows how the economy is now & everyone is having problems I dont wish anything for me mainly my son who doesnt deserve this by any means. I will keep my head up when I can but I am running on fumes :(

Wishing I had more hope than I did a few weeks ago my son & I donated some food to a local family & he felt good about it but I can still see the looks on his face I just keep praying for miracle or an angel this year!

Today my son said "Mom I know its tough for everyone this year don't worry about me let's try & help others with food & a hand up, we wil be ok I know it." When he said that I couldn't help but cry knowing my son is a good kid & after reading so many stories he is right I know he needs clothes & wants a Christmas just like I do for him but he has a want to help others. So even though I don't have money I know I can help with food & talking to some people I am going to donate food items & my clothes that don't fit & arent in bad shape. I am sorry everyone is going through this at this time of year I will pray for all of you God Bless!

 in response to aodtwo...   Im so sorry you have been through everything but your SSI cant be cut because you have no address, if that is what they have told you then they are wrong my sister went through the same thing, go to your local SS office if you are entitled to SSI/disability. Don't say stuff on here or cuss others out because they are asking for help with their children or their families & overweight is from eating all the time? Is that what u think? Son you need to go to church & pray! You have to want this as much as you say you do don't leave comments like you are leaving that shows us how angry you are nothing more.

Still nothing for christmas for my son or a place to call home it is cold here we receantly found shelter for a little while Im just so sad about all of this. I really wish there was a Santa for everyone out there. I hope you all have a good holiday I know it is rough this year.

I am a single mom of an 11 yr old boy, we were just recently evicted & had moved from one state to Texas which I am new to, I do not know anyone & we stay with the only person I do know here in an apartment. I have been looking for work walking all around the area since I don't have a car to find work. My son don't ask for much he don't complain when he walks to school 4 miles a day since we are .2 miles from a school bus route they do not go this far. He has outgrown all of his clothes to the point he has 2 pairs of shorts, 2 tshirts, 2 school uniform shirts & 1 pair of school uniform pants. I am very proud of him he has been through alot in his short life his father has never been in his life & remains out of the picture no matter how many times I try to write him but have no phone # for him. All I want for Marshall (my son) is a good Christmas something he can wake up to & not be sad or wonder if he has been bad. We have no family near & my dad has nothing to even do with us anymore since I am an odd ball, not because of problems other than he doesn't believe in the fact my son was born out of marriage. I have never been in trouble, not an alcoholic or drug user I watched my sisters destroy themselves doing that. My little boy is a great kid as are all kids. I wish I could help families this year but I can't & we all need help. If you can help with clothes or any kind of help pls contact me sljohnson_2011@yahoo.com I live in irving Texas.

I had ask for Christmas help in my previous post but in a days time my roommate that has let us stay here has become abusive to my 11 yr old son he is a 58 yr old man that has kicked us out on the streets with no money, no friends or family & nowhere to turn. I have no job because I have not been able to locate one in the months we have been here now I dont know where to turn for a home let alone a Christmas or any holiday for myself or my children. Im in desperate need of some help please contact me if you know of anything or if you can help. Thank you God Bless!
