FOFCer Go Fund Me
Hey guys, Apathetic Lurker has had some serious health problems the last couple years. He hasn't been around here since July of last year, because of them. I think he's been in the hospital more than not since then.

Thanks for posting this at the top. He's just over 10% of the way to his goal of 15k.

Well, I know I have rubbed people the wrong way over the years, and I am sorry. I have a big mouth, but a bigger heart. I am in dire straights. I have another 2 months. I dont even have a car and live 30 miles from anywhere. I will just post here just what my situation is (copied ffrom sending to another friend):
I make 650 a month on disability. My rent is 800, not incuding utilities and food. If I had a beat up car $600-700 to get me to town to work 2 or 3 times a week, which would pay my basics even with gas it would be a boon. I am out of luck because this person who helped more is now all about another person shes been with a short time and Im on my own as of 2 or 3 months. I dont know what to do and with my mental illness, it is making things so much worse. I see a person maybe once a week. It is lonely torture. My half of the financial part of the marriage might take up to two months to get to me. In the meantime, I really dont want to go homeless. Thanks to all of you for always being my friends. If anyone could do the gofundme thing, I would appreciate it so much. I don't want a good car, just junk to get to work, leave the house and enjoy life for the last bit I have here in California. This is making me ashamed, but I am alone and dont know who to ask for. Love you guys!

I don't understand what is happening here. You're asking for a beater car?

I can't offer even the slightest insight to how the gofundme stuff works, but I do want to say that I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time and finding no support, Schmidty. Big hug from me.

Yes, basically, just untill I get my settlement money and can buy a better one and live in an actual house. In the meantime, I could work. I am sick of being idle.

Schmidty, if you can figure out how to set up a gofundme acct, Ant and I will be glad to help. We don't have much, but we can help, if even a little.
Hugs, Schmidty <3

Have you checked with any county level charities? When my mother needed help in rural Ohio there was a charity there to help with accessibility issues. Is there a mental health or disabled adults charity that could help?

I looked into some things, but can't find anything yet. Hey, Lorena, I think I will swallow my pride, take your advice and put a gofundme thing up tomorrow. I just need a beater car that can run for 2-3 months, so I can work. I've was already given some help sent straight to my paypal account. FOFC has a big heart. I wish I hadn't avoided it so long. Thanks everyone.

Ok, so I did it. I set up my gofundme. www.gofundme.com/help-jason-get-back-to-work An awesome FOFCer, already donated to my paypal yesterday, so that took a chunk off. I am basically looking for a $1000 junker to get to work for 2 momths until I get my settlement money, but now I only need $750 or so. I hate feeling like a begger, but I don't know what else to do or where else to turn.

Last dola.
A friend just told me that some don't like gofundme, so just using paypal is better for some. I think all you need is my email: [email protected] . Thanks again. I have been up here on this mountain by myself for almost a year with no way to get anywhere. I don't think I can take another week of this, let alone another few months. I know I am grasping at straws, but I really need help.

Hey Schmidty I hope that you're able to find the assistance that you're looking for. Mental health is such a serious often overlooked and ridiculed thing. Only hope for the best for you.
