| hey, i just wanted to say thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read this, i'm not an avid poster on acmlm's, so i dont know most of you, but your sentiment means alot... I just am in a little bit of a bind, i have had a pretty shitty life but that doesnt bother me that much i am a strong person, but latelly thing have been going down hill kinda fast. lol reader be warned this will be a long post..... Anyways no one here knows of me or my dad, but in a few months we will be knowen world wide, my dad an organization called wepcsa (wepcsa.com if anyone wants to check it out) he was injured alot on the job when i was younger..and of course that would put strain on any person. But after almost 10 years of hard work my dad has uncovered the biggest case of murder, treason and fraud in histroy..no lie, it's alot of stuff way to long to explain. But anyways, my dad has been trying to organize the cases of the injured people in alberta, and canada wide as well. He was planning to go to court withing the next year with the huge case with law firms from all over north america. But we both are pretty sick right now, the physical and mental strains he has put on himself to try and help the people in canada is litterally unbelievable and his doctors have told him this as well, they actually told him that if he keeps up the current mental strain and doesnt get treatment for his physical problems he will be dead by Christmas, so we are actually considering going solo on our case just so we an get some money to get back on track.....But we cant do that, adandon all the people who have put there future in our hands we just have to brave the storm i guess. But my biggest problem right now is a friend of mine. I met this girl named Amber when i was 11 (I am 17 now). She has been more than a friend to me, i can truthfully say that if it wasnt for her i would have ended my life when i was 12 and 13, i had a pretty tough time back then. But right now she needs me and i am outta ideas on how to help her. She got pregnant last year with her boyfriend (shes the same age as me), and once here baby was born in febuary, His is Keenan by the way, Her boyfriend just left her...no one can seem to find him...what an asshole he really pisses me off, but what can you do. And ontop of that her parents were of the classical type i guess is the best way of putting it, They told her, if she was old enough to have a kid she is old enough to live on her own....So they kicked her out a few weeks after Keenan was born. She right now is living with Shane Auntie (Shane is the guy who left her), But shes in financial trouble right now.... I never cared to much about myself before, i may have had an unlucky life so far but i always got a sort of satisfaction from helping others, and now the person i care for the most in the world needs help, and i cant help. It may not seem like a serious problem but Keenan was born almost 7 weeks premature, and i have to say hes not doing to well. And this is where my bind is, My dad told me if i needed he would go with our case alone...to get the money we need to help everyone, me, him, my bro, my sis, and amber, but to do that we basically have to screw everyone else in canada, alberta th most. I just dunno what to do.... And for those of you who are going to suggest the idea of me getting a job to help her out, and me out as well, its a little more complicated than that, medical and mental history prevent me from even working at the local IGA, i hate to say it but i am outta ideas, so i just thought that if i wrote this up, and tell all that is currently on my mind it will help me clear my mind and think of something, and of course any advise is welcome....... Well thanks for taking the time outta your day to read this, respond if you want dont matter, i just feel better just letting it all out....thanks |

| 1. Ahh...this is the classic case of the community going on yourself. You can either do well, or you can make everyone equal. It's always a hard thing to do (heck, it's basically a government issue...which is better? Socialism or Free Market?) . That you can decide on yourself. Should you help the community, or help yourself? 2. There are more ways of helping her then giving her money, and you don't have to give her a lot of money. Start small. Start helping her out and stuff with food, so she doesn't spend money. Try talking to her parents. |

| oh of couse, emotional support is the biggest thing, but money counts pretty high to. I tried to get here parents number off her but she says i have already done enough, i probably wouldent be hard to get the number off the net...but i feel like i am going behind her back like that......i will probably do it, i just feel bad about it, even if the outcome can be good. The big problem with getting ahold of her parents, is i search in her city and 55 results come up with her last name, i dont know her parents first name, and 55 people is alot to call cross province. I just worry about her....and i cant think of anything else to do, her baby is sick. I send money when ever i get some but it's just not enough. She strong and i know she will pull through, I can only hope that Keenan is half as strong as she is, If Keenan is he will be fine, i'm sure.

| Can't she move in with you temporally? Your dad sounds like the kind, understanding type. I'm pretty sure she'd be grateful for sleeping on the sofa. At least by providing some kind of stable pad for her to stay, she can re-strategise her life. As for your father and the people who rely on you... it's a tough call, but personally I'd sacrifice myself for the community. How bad is your dad's illness? |

| Can't you just take a week off and recover all your energy? No one can tell you what to do right now, you and your dad need to figure that out. As for the boyfriend that left, I already hate him. |

| well i dont live with my dad, i live with my mom. They divorced when i was 2, and my dad remarried and had to more kids (my bro and sis) My mom.....doesnt like women..lol, she's not that kinda mom. And i know this kinda make me sounds like an ass but i kinda dont want to see her for a few more months...i wanna help her out anyway i can. It's just for example, 3 years ago i have a 48 waist, and weighed 210 pounds, Now i have a 38 waist and i am 292 pounds....no i didnt get fatter i am just in very good shape...and I am a big dude, i was told i should become a football player. But i'm still not to happy with my look, i know it sounds selfish and like a pride issue in all, but it just bothers me. She is a very nice and beautiful gal...and i just dont want her to be dissapointed...... And as for takeing a few weeks off to recover, we dunno if we can do that. We have a few meetings with lawyers this week to check dates and time limits, depending on those, we might get some rest, we might have to work harder. One thing that is probably going to be pretty emotional for me...I was told this i dunno. Is i have to go to the local Mental Health Centre and get my medical files and medication files from when i was 6 year (thats when i started going there) and on. But the provincial law says me, my lawyer, 1 of my doctors, and the hospitals lawyer have to read through my ENTIRE file and black out all third party information. There definition of that is anything that was said on record when i wasnt present. But i have been told i had a very crappy and emotional life, I feel kinda fortunate because i dont remember...They say thats either because of a slight head problem i have or just trauma of the past, there not sure both are just theorys. So starting tomorrow i get to find out everything that happened to me when i was younger....i kinda wanna know, but i'm not looking forward to it. My dad from 1986 and on worked on rigs. At 1994 when he had to retire he was working as an over sea's tool push and supurvisor, makeing 420k a year...thats where most of the money comes from the lawsuit, lost wages and interest. But in 87 he actually got his left arm bone pulled outta his arm in an accident, in 91 he fell 22 feet of a floor of the rig and hit some metal poles, very badly injuring his back, and the one that forced him to quit was in 94 the rig he was working on exploded, he wasnt the closest to the explosion but he still flew pretty far and was in the hospital for 7 months...He said it was cool, lol. But without ANY treatment for so long slowy degrades a persons condition more. Ya my dad did have money saved, but WCB said he was fit for work so they cut him off....and he believed them at first, he bought a new truck and starting working as a dispatcher, every few days he would have to take off because of extreme pain, but he kept going because the government said he was fit for work....shows how much they trully know eh? He blew all his money and screwed himself up more over the next year trying to work, until he just could barely walk anymore. sorry......

| calm down. I read that article you linked to, and I don't really know what else to say aside from governments screwing people over all over the globe. it might be an odd comfort, but just know you're not alone in things like this, and atleast you guys are fighting to get justice for it. As for Amber, you should've mentioned it was online, not irl. Reading your first post it sounded like she lived in the same town you did. Always be on your toes with things that are online, especially stories like that. You don't have to stop being nice, you just have to try and learn when people appreciate you being nice and returning that in their own way, or when they're just using you as a doormat to rub their (imaginary) negative experiences on. Be correct if you find out they're doing the latter, and just try to break with thim as fast as you can. |
