Death in Family
SHE LOST EVERYTHING. NOW HEART ISSUES. PLEASE HELP CHRISTINA.
Good Samaritan
UPDATE ON CHRISTINA: Please take just a moment to read this. As I posted previously, Christina has had some difficulty in breathing, chest pain, tightness and extreme fatigue. She is in need of medical tests. She has no medical insurance and no money. Anything you can do to help is urgently needed and will be tremendously appreciated. For documented proof of her case, please visit: http://christinasrecovery.weebly.com/links-to-documentation.html.(Please Note: All donations to her website will reach her immediately). I cannot say enough what this woman has been through. She had a life, just like you and I. She had a very modest home, a husband of nearly 16 years that she loved, an automobile, things just like you and I. She and Joseph rescued animals, nursed them back to health and cared for them. She lost all of that in a millisecond. Her life as she knew it is gone. She has struggled so hard since just to keep living. He left absolutely nothing. They had just lost their home to foreclosure. 3 days later, he committed suicide. She was left with nothing other than grief the likes of which I cannot even begin to comprehend. They were already in trouble as was apparent by the loss of their home to foreclosure. Then, his income ceased immediately upon his death. All of their belongings were in a storage building, all of which Christina lost after Joseph's death due to lack of money. Then, she lost their rescue pets, as she had no way to take care of them, no home and no money. They are safe in someone else's home. Christina is not. And, she loved them so much. I am 2000 miles away from her and can't leave as I am caring for my elderly parents in my home. I lost my business last year, so my income is very and uncomfortably fixed. However, I want nothing for myself. Nothing will go to me. I can take care of Mom and Dad for the time being. But, Christina can't get her head above water. It is tragic to me that a human life surviving or not surviving comes down to money. A few dollars. Due to a decision she did not make and had no control over. Please help Christina! I am concerned a second life is going to be lost in this. She has been fully verified on Microgiving. Please. She has been through so much. Any amount is helpful. Thank you and bless you in advance. Her story is below. You can also read it in her own words and in more detail at www.christinaswish.wordpress.com.This past April, my friend lost everything. Her husband to suicide three days following the loss of their home to foreclosure, as well as all of their belongings. She has been left not only with a broken heart, but with absolutely nothing from her life, no home and an enormous amount of debt. Will you please help?Christina and Joseph were together for eighteen years and married for sixteen. They started out like any other couple. In love and with dreams. They lived modestly through the course of their marriage in the same small two bedroom home they had picked out together while engaged. They had a beautiful white, outdoor wedding. They were animal lovers and advocates who took in unwanted, abandoned, or hurt animals, nursed them back to health, adopted them, and cared for them. You'll see their beloved rescue animals in Christina's video. And, like every couple, they had their ups and downs. But, in the late 2000s, things began to change for the worst. Due to the economic climate change, Joseph, as many others, was laid off from his job. The pattern repeated three times over the following few years. In an attempt to recover, the couple filed bankruptcy. But, to no avail. Then, the unthinkable happened.In April, 2011, their home was taken from them during foreclosure proceedings. Just days later, on April 15, 2011, Joseph took his life. Imagine starting over with nothing after spending nearly twenty years building a life that was abruptly, and without warning, taken from you. I have watched my friend lose everything and I have watched her crumble. It is absolutely heartbreaking. In addition to the grief of losing her husband, Christina is in financial crisis. Joseph had been collecting unemployment benefits after his last layoff. Those benefits ceased immediately upon his death. Upon losing their home, all of their belongings including furniture, clothing, and all personal items, everything that had been in their home for sixteen years, were packed and placed in a storage building. All of it was lost as Christina was unable to pay the storage cost. Joseph's car was also lost. Even their cherished pets had to be given away, as Christina was no longer in a position to care for them after losing her home, her husband, income, and all belongings. Joseph's medical bills alone for the hours following, as well as paramedics costs, amount to over $100,000 in unpaid debt. She hasn't enough even to survive day to day. My goal is to enlist the assistance of others in helping Christina have a home and rebuild her life. I live over 2,000 miles away and am on a fixed income. I cannot do this alone. All donations are terribly and urgently needed.Regardless of your personal or spiritual feelings regarding suicide, Christina did nothing wrong. She had no knowledge of or control over the circumstances or the outcome. This should never happen to another human being. She has been left alone with no one and nothing. The love of her life is gone, she has no home, no belongings. Life can change on a dime. It can happen to any one of us. Please extend your heart and your help to Christina. Your donation will go directly to Christina. Nearly twenty years of her life vanished, as well as any semblance of what she knew and who she loved. Everything she had and worked for is gone. Please help her. Joseph's life has been lost. Let's save hers. Please. Together, we can.Thank you. You have made a difference today.To read Christina's story in her own words:www.christinaswish.wordpress.comThank you.
