Help Needed

May 03, 2013 10:39

This isn't something I ever thought I'd have to do, but I find myself in a position where I need to desperately ask the crowdfunding community for help. Due to some medical issues it's looking more and more like James is going to have to take some time off work. As he's only been with his current job for just over a year he'll only get a weeks worth of their sick pay and Statutory Sick Pay isn't even going to cover our rent. So what I need is some money desperately in order to help cover the rent, buy groceries, and get James fuel so he can go back to work when he's feeling better.

At the moment we don't know what's wrong. It could be something simple to fix, but he's still going to need to take time off. He's had this problem for just over a month now, and the first attempt at sorting the problem with antibiotics didn't work, but that hasn't stopped him from going to work. Unfortunately it does seem like his stubborness may have affected him, because it seems like the pain he's suffering from is getting worse. It's possible, depending on what is actually wrong, that he might need surgery and if he does it seems like, due to where it will be, that he's going to be off work for a while if it does come to that.

If you have some money you can stick in my tip jar at kajoneswriting.co.uk it really would help a lot. My aim is to cover half the rent, which is £180, and be able to buy food for a month, which is around £70, for at least the next couple of months, so I'll update my income tracker to show what I need. At the moment anything will help, even if it's just signal boosting my plea for help.

Every donator will, of course, receive their perk and I have site perks that will equal more published words at my site. There are all sorts of things you can get, from character adoptions to the newly created story bundles, as I love experimenting with crowdfunding, so check it out and it's always possible to send me an email (k_a_jones at live.co.uk) if you need more information.
