Letter of Appeal

Hi Everyone (from Marianne Moyer),

Some of you on the message boards know me and some don't. I am
homeschooling my two children Katrina and Sabrina, age 4 and 10. My
husband left me about a year and a half ago. He didn't give me any
support since last December 2001. Basically he left us with nothing
and gave us nothing, and I've been in and out of court. I couldn't
work because I've been extremely and chronically ill. I finally had
to go on public assistance and could barely pay any of my bills. My
family has helped me some but they no longer can help.
Consequently, I'm now in the situation that I'm in, and I have some
sad news. My landlord gave me an eviction letter on Oct. 24th, 2002.
He's giving me 30 days to vacate and at that time they're moving our
house off the lot in our mobile home park. I have gotten into arrears
in the amount of $2500 not having the money to pay for the rent on
the land for the last 6 months.
I've been a homemaker for years and don't really have any marketable
skills even if I could work. The children and I are left with pain
and fear, and I have many chronic health problems including visual
problems, chronic fatigue syndrome, breathing difficulties, etc.
I'm under the care of different doctors and have not been able to be
definitively diagnosed for over 10 years. The mystery of the unknown
is scary and I just want to be alive for my children to see them
grow.
Right now I'm appealing to anyone who can help us from being on the
street and saving our home. I will be in the hospital in a few weeks,
and cannot rest until I know that the children and I have our home to
stay in and won't be put out on the cold streets. My older daughter
and her 1 year old baby also live with us. What sadness and ills have
befallen us today.
A loan, a gift, whatever you can spare would be gratefully
appreciated. My prayers go out to you for this support, as the
holidays are close and winter is falling upon us, an angel looks over
all the good in this time of need...and so you shall be blessed many
times over for your support in saving us from being homeless and the
loss of so much, as all our prayers are answered... I plead for my
children for they are my breath of my life... To see smiles wash away
the tears... I thank you for such kindness...
If you could just help us this one time, I think I can manage in the
future. I was just awarded some child support but not enough and not
in time, I'm appealing disability and hoping to collect in the
future, I'll be going for spousal support in February and I may have
an insurance settlement in a few months. My older daughter is working
on employment as well.

PS This is from Marianne's friend Barbara Auerbach. My idea
is that 50 people donating $50, 100 people donating $25, $250 people
donating $10 would do it for Marianne. I'll put in the first $50. I'm
hoping that everyone who sees this will help put in the rest. This
act of kindness will come back to you.
