Campaign Story
Hello and thank you everyone for taking the time to read my plea for help. My name is Marcus West. Today I am leaning on the kind and generous community to help me get back on my feet. I spent the last 6 months taking care of my ill father who recently passed away. I have zero regrets about providing a comfortable transition from this life into the next, he is my father and meant the world to me. However, taking care of him has left me a in a deep hole and I am struggling very hard to dig my way out. When my father fell ill he was being well taken care of at the hospital but after a 1 month long stay the insurance company had requested that we remove him and place him in a hospice. In the hospice is health rapidly declined ultimately leading to his passing.
My father was not only a role model to myself but to many around him. I was a proud son to take on his care and to provide him a comfortable final days as best as I could. The hospice charged over $6,000 a month. Due to high fees I was required to take out many personal loans which has begun to bury me. As I sit here and write this plea for help I am starving and cannot afford my next meal. I have since suffered other set backs such as my a/c, water heater, washer, and dryer have all kicked the bucket. I feel an incredible burden on my shoulders that only seems to get heavier and heavier each day. If you have every felt or been in a position such as I have please have pity on me and lend me a helping hand. What may feel like $1 to you will feel like $100 to me.
Please if you can spare a few dollars I would be forever grateful. If you cannot make a donation I kindly ask that you share my story with your friends and family within your social media circles. Hopefully someone you know is willing to spare a helping hand or to share my story further.
Thank you and God bless.
