Well I just got off the telephone with Shannon and she sounds like she is getting better. Shannon and Dante have both had some Virus and seem to be getting over it now, which is good. No one likes being sick. I hate hanging up from a phone call with her, it just never seems right. I want to be sure that she hears me tell her that I hope she is ok and for her to take care, Yes and that I love her and Dante too.
This is a Picture of My Eldest Daughter "Shannon". Its been a few years since I have actually seen Shannon, now it's all about sending Photos to one another. She Dyed her hair in the past couple of weeks she is a Natural Brunette. She wanted to do something different . I personally think she looks a little like Gwen Stefani with this hair colour. Well, We all miss her and would love to see her. Till then Pictures are better than Nothing at all.
I heard about this from someone who wrote to me a couple of days ago and thought I would try. It never hurts to try. Thank you for having the Patience to read.
I am an Australian mother of 4. I brought my children here for a Holiday after there Grandmother passed on, For having been so well behaved while she was sick. I met a man and we married (not always an ok marriage). We went to do our INS papers and the man took off with my daughters and my passports and airline tickets he also took the monies we had planned for this. I have looked into asking for help like this before but I believed that there were other people worse off than us. Until today. My husband has lost his job. Rent is due next week lights too. My husband can't afford to do our papers with the INS because we really live from check to check barely making ends meet, we have no savings. We have lived in different Shelters in a couple of States for homeless people and I don't want my children to go back to that. We need to go home so that we may have our lives back. When we have tried to get some form of help they ask for our Social #'s and as we don't have any they try different ways to get around that but it always fails. After suggestions from people that worked with these Shelters I have written to different talk shows like Oprah, Montel and Maury and never recieved any replies besides the automated ones. We have tried asking State Governments for help but they tell us that they are unable to help us, I have contacted Govenors Offices after people told me that they would be able to help but again they just seem to end up going in circles too. We do not recieve any form of welfare. We entered this Country legally and we are stuck. I can't work legally so I have no income, I can't save money to go home, and if my Husband was to leave us we would have nothing, without my Husband (no matter what state the marriage is in) we would have the clothes on our back and be sleeping under the stars, hungry. Which we have done (as I remember when I found out that my ex Husband emptied a bank account I had back home) when I found this out I thought how we could have used that money to go home or to get food, at that time we had been living in a tent on a campground for months, my husband had left me at one point and we found ourselves at one of the Shelters we have stayed in. I don't want my Children to have to relive what they have already been through. I remember a man that tried desperately to help us he lived with his mother and he tried to help us by taking us to different Goverment Offices where everything we tried didn't work. I clearly still remember how the shelters were. I have no family here except for my Husband and Children. I can name the Shelters we stayed at I can even remember some of the staff but mostly I remember how they treated people. We have moved several times most of the time with less than a days notice to get out, leaving belongings with neighbours or childrens friends that we unfortunately have never seen or been in contact with since, so my children over the past have lost a lot of belongings, mostly without complaints. In person I find it terribly hard to say Thankyou to someone for showing some kindness or offering us help as we haven't recieved much of it in our past here and I have a hard time getting those words out without a showing of emotion. I am embarrassed and ashamed to be asking for help. I believe that in order for you to decide to help us or not you should know something of our lives. Thankyou with all our hearts.
Trying to push my story further and further so I have also created a Blog
If your interested Please have a look, I am slowly adding to it and trying to get it where people will see it. Thank You.

This is a Picture of My Eldest Daughter "Shannon". Its been a few years since I have actually seen Shannon, now it's all about sending Photos to one another. She Dyed her hair in the past couple of weeks she is a Natural Brunette. She wanted to do something different . I personally think she looks a little like Gwen Stefani with this hair colour. Well, We all miss her and would love to see her. Till then Pictures are better than Nothing at all.
