I know $$ is tight for a lot of us, but

if any of you have any thing to spare, or even any time or services that could help these families, please let me know.  They are local families to the Wylie, Sachse area that are in need.  I'm trying to get together what I can to help out.  Here are the descriptions of who they are and what they need:

  Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;} 1. Lady in her 60s who has no heat and lives alone in a mobile
home. She needs a new or repaired Furnace, a new sub floor in her
Kitchen (It is about to cave in and is a mobile home). Soon she will
need a fridge too. Right now she is trying to sell off some of her
belongings so she can get a cancerous tumor from her chest removed.
No Insurance and no Medicaid or medicare. What's most needed:
furnace or repair, floor repairs, fridge, money for medical/living
expenses, fresh food, Walmart or Albertsons gift cards.

2. Mother, father (in their late 30's/early 40's) and 15-year-
old son (sophomore at WHS) who will be evicted at the end of December
if they cannot pay their rent. The mom has been suffering from
breast cancer and it recently has recurred. The only thing the
parents care about is that their son has something for Christmas?.and
they have a roof over their heads.
What's most needed: food, gift cards, anything for the son, size
large in pants and shirts (dress code---solid color, long or short
sleeves) Maybe a TLC basket for mom. Gift cards for essentials or a
night out.


3. Husband lost his job in sales and has not been able to find
another one in months. The mother (in her 30s) has several life-
threatening diseases and is now severely in need of a blood
transfusion. But there is no insurance since the husband lost his
job. What's most needed: The family wishes they could afford
Christmas presents for their 10-year-old son, who has been so good to
his mom...even saving her life once by dialing 911. He's a big
Cowboys and sports fan and is size 12-14 for shirts and pants--dress
code, although he could use t-shirts for weekends)! Or maybe just a
gift card for the family to use for a night out, groceries, or to
shop for their son. A TLC basket (hot chocolate, bath gels, etc.)
might also be nice for mom. The family can also use fresh and frozen
food that is easy to prepare because mom doesn't feel up to cooking
most days.

4. The little girl (10 years old) in this family has only two pairs
of pants to her name (she is size chubby 12-14). Her brother is 6'2,
size 38 wide x 34-36 length. The dad has not worked in a year.
What's most needed: gift certificates to Wal-mart, Target or other
stores for clothes and necessities, and fresh groceries (they have
canned food). The little girl loves any craft sets, Barbies, games,
etc. The son loves any cool t-shirts (x-large).

5. An older local couple in their 60s is too proud to ask for
help?even from their children?but they have no fresh food, only
canned goods. They need perishables like milk, eggs, bread,
cheese, potatoes?or gift cards to buy them.

6. Mother in early 30's with severe lupus (suffers constant
seizures) and possible diagnosis coming this week of ovarian cancer
(no immunity). Husband lost his job in I.T. Two boys, 8 and 10, are
really into sports. Boys are sizes 8-10 and 10-12 respectively.
Besides job leads and financial help, they can still use gift cards,
toys, clothes, TLC baskets, fresh food, frozen food and more. They
do have a Paypal account set up at wyliefamilyinneed@....

Please email me at jill@babyrabies.com if you can do anything or know anyone else who can.
