I don't really know where or how to start. This is a bit hard for me. These paste few years have been quite harsh, on just about everyone. What I'm asking is not something I'd usually do, but these times are hard and my family and myself, have lost pretty much everything. In the last 7-8 years my father lost his job, when during the crisis his companies began losing business, more and more, to a point where they got into debt, to its suppliers and taxes.

My father had to let go of his employees, who went months and months without payment. In order to help them, my father assumed the companies debts to the suppliers and taxes as a personal debt, taking a mortgage on the family's house, to pay all the due salaries. this took quite a toll on the family's finances.

My father was unable to get a job (mostly due to his age - no one would hire him) and bills kept pilling and pilling. I helped my parents with what I could, I even took a loan in my name, to give them some money for food, rent, etc. It ended up on weighing on me also.

Considering, as we say here at home, “one evil is never alone”, almost 3 years ago my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Stage iV, spread all over - ovaries, uterus, peritoneum, endometrium… No salvation in sight. For that time, my mom fought as hell, always with hope… Until there was none, until the day came and she died in my arms while I said goodbye to her.

As one might guess, adding up to the financial difficulties, the cost of all the treatments, doctors, medication, took them up to edge.

They lost the family house, cars, everything.

And so, we come here. I come here, because my father never would. He just found a job. But way, way too far from where he lives.

As such, I’m asking for help, in order to ease the burden because I alone cannot help. My salary goes entirely for rent and food for the me, the wife and the 6-year-old kid, along with school.

I hope you can take my plea and help me in some way.

I thank you. I really do.
