A big thank you to Ronna and Arthur.
Yes; guilty, I am just bumping the thread, sue me.

I appreciate and am grateful to those who have helped, as well as those who have offered advice. I also respect those who don't and have their reasons. I do understand.
I have a hard time exposing myself, it was easier to talk to strangers I have never met than go running to the people around me. When I came here, I was just looking to talk...when Chris made that donation of material, it was unexpected, but that gesture brought so much to me. Yes it's getting my side sealed, but it's more than that...it showed me someone can care. Neal has been beyond supportive openly and in private messages, so please don't be upset with his passion...he just wants to help, he means well and cares about you all here. I have no doubt he wouldn't do the same for anyone here.
Thanks to the people in this forum, I am trying to reach out more locally. I have contacted a friend I grew up with who is much more vocal than I am, and reached out to what resources that Tellebot helped me find...and it's slow, but I'm trying more than before, where I was just giving up. Maybe nothing will come of it, or maybe something...but my point is, I have THIS group to thank for it. You gave me some hope back.
I am sorry if this has caused any friction.
Pay it forward is an expression for describing the beneficiary of a good deed repaying it to others instead of to the original benefactor. The concept is old, but the phrase may have been coined by Lily Hardy Hammond in her 1916 book In the Garden of Delight.
Some times people come here needing a whole lot more than advice. For anyone thinking of a way to pay it forward I would suggest having a look at this.

Some of the members who give so much of therir time, have already donated but we need a lot more help.
I currently don't have any $ to donate, but I shared the gofundme page on my Facebook page. I didn't realize she still needed money.
It's ok, I know you would if you could. I shared it on my wall for last time last month...just got too hard humiliating myself and having more strangers give than people I know. I hear the gossip around town, stupid girl, that's what you get.
I appreciate the thoughts and shares though. I see you sent me a message, I will reply to that next.
Take care all of you, and thank you for being so caring. x
