Help getting my teeth fixed!

Hi everyone.
I am at 24 year old work at home mom. I have three kids. I am in the process of finish college among many other things. I have low self esteem because my teeth. They are bad. I have had bad teeth since I was a kid. My mom never got my teeth fixed as a child. And as an young adult I never had health insurance. When I started working at my last job I had insurance but never had enough to pay for my dental procedures. Now as I am self employed I do not have insurance and I am suffering from tooth aches all the time. I have crooked teeth, I was told when I was younger that my mouth was too small and they needed to pull some teeth to make room for the ones I have. But that was never done.
If anyone knows of how i can get low cost or free dental help from someone in the Houston area PLEASE let me know ! Thank you so much!
God Bless!

About elizabethinhouston

Hello, My name is Elizabeth and live in Houston, Texas with my husband and four children. In May, my husband got laid off of work unexpectantly, which was a huge blow to us. A month later, my husband got another job and was promised a certain amount of money and we felt that it was going to be a good job for our family. Well, my husband never got paid what he was promised. That, again, has hit us hard financially. So, we are late on our rent, car payment, and every other bill. We have no family to turn to and I feel like I'm gonna go out of my mind. We need help. My husband found another job, but will not pay well till he's done with training. We need a loan. We are desperate. Our credit has gone down the hill for the past 2 months. We just need a good place to go to for help. Please help.

About ScottD

This is my desperate cry for help. I'm a 25 year old male fulltime-student from Houston who recently recieved a medical disharge from the Air Foce. I lost my 18 year old brother due to a car accident and my parents was laid off their jobs. We have up to this point been leaving off my severance pay but now are in financial ruin. My parents put their life savings into remoldeling our house to make it accesible for my brother when he got out of the hospital...he was supposed to make a full recovery. I feel really selfish in asking this but I have no other choice. I am in great need of seeing a dentist so that I may recieive treatment for periodontitist (Gum disease). I am so afraid of loosing my teeth. If anyone can help with geeting me in contact with a pro bono dentist or someone who can help finance this it would mean the world to me. I hate my smile as it is I need alignments but I don't no what I will do if I loose my teeth. I never smile and feel really ashamed. This has added to my depression.

I have a room I can offer a female. I have a 16 year old daughter and you will have to share a bathroom so it must be female. Originally I was trying to rent the room but if the right person comes along I would be glad to forego rent. If you are a young single mother or if you know of a young woman who could use the room and maybe some other assistence let me know. I am in Houston Texas. However I am not looking to just carry someone else on my back you must be willing and able to work. This isnt a permanent thing just a chance for someone to get on thier feet. Please contact me  if you are serious. No pets and no guys in the house. No drug addicts. I am reasonable and kindhearted but will not be used. I am doing this to maybe change 1 persons story and because I can right now.

About TheMillerTwo

We are a young married couple that is having a rather tough time staying afloat financially. We've both had our share of hardships before and during our relationships. Both were required to assume the parenting role with younger siblings as teenagers. A job that has carried over into adulthood. We've both had to drop our college pursuits for the moment due to this. Through all of this and many more trials and tribulations, we've never given up. Around the first of March of 2009, we moved in with my grandmother to save money and assist her also. On March 8th, we were awoken by my aunt beating on the door telling us the house was on fire. The fire was started by my uncle out of pure evilness. We were under the impression that my five year old cousin had gone to church with my grandmother. As soon as we were able to get out, we heard her calling for help. My wife was burned as she darted back to the second floor to attempt to save her. We were both out of work for a while and I still am. We are falling further and further behind on bills and would greatly appreciate any assistance anyone could offer. The story made the news on every station in Houston and the paper if there are any doubters. You can google a combination of my name, Anthony Miller, my cousins, Brastaya Peace-Davis, and my former uncles, Tracy Bush to see the story. Please help us before we're homeless. My email address is tonyfayte@hotmail.com. Thank you great nation.

Hello everyone!  I thought I would give this a try, because I feel like my options are very limited at this point.  I am originally from Louisiana, but have been living in Houston since Hurricane Katrina. I am a 28 year old single mom of two boys, 9 and 4.  I am also unemployed, without a vehicle, and am getting evicted from my apartment.  I have fought this eviction to the county court but everything I had to present for my defense was inadmissable because the community director who basically screwed over me is no longer employed (fired) and the apartment's attorney and the judge considered all of it hearsay since I did not find her and bring her in to testify.  I am so scared right now for my family.  I pray every single day and try to do right by others, not because I am expecting anything but because it is what is inside of me.  Now I just feel all alone.  I am thankful that we are healthy, and that I am blessed with two children.  I just want to have a roof over our heads and food on the table, everything else is nonessential.  If anyone knows of any employment openings in my area (West Houston, Hwy 6 & Richmond Ave.) I would appreciate that information.  I do not have a car so I would be using public transportation until I can afford to buy another one.  If anyone has any information on places for me and my kids to live, I would appreciate that also.  I will have to move out by house next week.  Thank you for taking the time to read this.  I know it is kinda long, but I think I honestly needed to vent.  It's hard to put on a brave face in front of the kids all the time.  Thank you again.

Please help. Last resort

I am in desperate need of money to pay my electric bill. With the summer months upon us, the heat is unbearable and my bill which is normally around $150 is now $375, more than double. I am sick with worry. It is already past due. I work two jobs now, 1 full time and 1 part time, and I attend scool part time. I have a little 4 year old daughter. I work very hard to make ends meet. I would have been ok to pay this bill but two weeks ago I had my car break down and with tow fees and repair costs it was right at $300. I paid that, but now I am behind on my electric. I am just sick with worry. If you can give anything... even a dollar or two I would appreciate it so much. I am a decent person just trying to make it n the world. I can't offer much in the way of paying you back, but I can do something to show my appreciation. Thank you for taking the time to read this. God bless.

Hello,

I was born with mild cerebral palsy and now have become fully disabled. I have applied for SSI and SSDI, but am now waiting for the results. Im current on rent but need assistance with my electric and phone bills. I've done the best I can with what little resources I've had. Anyone who can help provide some assistance would be great. I need help with trying to find disability grants or any grants that can help me until Im approved. Also anyone who would be willing to provide me with some transportation in the houston area, or any sort of help. I appreciate the kindness.

Thank you and God Bless,

Russell
