 I am disabled and do not make enough money to pay my monthly bills.I am about to loose my home that I built with my own two hands 27 years ago.I need help A.S.A.P. I will be homeless very soon if I can't get any help. I only make $1184.00 a month on Social Security Disability.My monthly bills come to almost $3000.00 a month. As you can see I need help!!!! fast. Thank you for any help you can give me.

My best to you

I am having a brain surgery that is going to take me away from work for aprox. eight months. My wife has a job but not enough to pay all of our bills. Any ideas how to get through this time?

 in response to karin@lbibeachlover.com...   My husband and I are also in that Large Boat. We have been trying to get into the Home Affordable program for over 2 years and are still in limbo land!!!!! I have contacted our state reps and even the white house!!!!! We are still waiting and that has been several months ago!!!! Do contact your state reps as that is what they are getting paid for!!!!! The Best thing for everyone to do is get down on your knees and ask GOD for help and for GOD to help those rendering the decisions!!!!! GOD sure has saved us many times and GOD is THE ANSWER!!!!! I Pray everyone gets the help they need as it is terrible to be going through this and fighting for our homes!!!! I compare my home to Elvis's Graceland as I know he had Great Love for his home!!! I call our home Heartland as We Love it with all our heart and are PROUD of our accomplishments with it!!!! Again I wish you all the bet and you will be in my prayers!!!! Thanks......Frogina

 in response to karin@lbibeachlover.com...   Wish I could help you all, cause it would help me too. I'm almost 50, disabled 12 years ago after an accident. I'm also a single dad of 2 daughters, which are increasing in cost as they age too, and being a father, I want to at least give them what they need. Which is more often not what they want though. I bought my home 20 years ago and with all the increases in insurance, taxes, utilities and just cost of living, I can no longer meet the monthly payments of 1200. Luckily, I only paid 40k for my home and did not over buy even though I was making good money and felt I was set in my career. Ive contacted everyone I could think of and there is no break for the disabled, not even with the city, state or fed gov. And of course my SSDI payment puts me $4 over the limit to get assistance like food stamps

It seems we all have a similar tale.  I'm 66 years old.  3 years ago I was a successful dentist with a great income and a great home.  Now after a stroke, I am unable to practice and have gone through all resources.  My SS disability barely covers just the bills and doesn't come close to mortgage payment.

I see all the posts, but no advice.  Any help anywhere?

Frisco- 

Wow - I am in the same boat as you !!I am entering Forclosre as my Disability as well does not even cover my Mtg. payment !  Have you received any advise or help regarding your situation?  I do not know where to even turn to.  There has to be someone/some program that helps the disabled. Kindly let me know if you have made any progress.

 

Warm Regards,

Karin
