Saddest day of my life….

Well my daughter wanted to go to the summer sessions at West Virginia University and because of all this crap with me and hubby I couldn’t even afford my daughters’ tuition…now how is this fair?  And the saddest part is when I had to tell her I didn’t have the money she cried and that made me cry too….man I tell you it seems after you have done all you can for everyone else and their kid that someone would help you not the case and I can’t tell you how I am feeling right now…but she still has until June 30th to make the second session and like KAMA I am praying for a miracle for my childl

Anyway buddies didn’t make it to OHIO no money and stuck in my office not feeling real well today and yes Ms. POSITIVITY is feeling real down about now.  I am a mother and I am suppose to be there for my daughter; I’m there for everyone else’s kids and it really makes me sick that my own child needs me and I can’t be there!!! Ugh…..

 Take care guys and just keep me and Brittany in your prayers for the second semester!!!

    Don’t be so hard on yourself Angela…things will fall into place…I’m in the same boat, but not for college…for auto insurance…OMG they want my blood, just to add her to my policy…it’s a disgrace and I can’t afford it. But, we will find a way, and she works very hard, and is willing to pay whatever she has to, but we don’t want her to have to pay for it all, some maybe, but only to give her some responsiblity. It’ll work out..umm, yeah and how’d you get leave for Ohio…you hit the lottery? lol

    So sorry Angela. My parents felt the same way when I was in school. The financial aid folks said well your parents “should” be able to contribute this much and the fact of the matter with two of us, even with one of us, they couldn’t. But we made it through and we hold nothing against them. Your daughter loves you and understands :)

    Oh, Angela, I am so sorry!! You and Brittany have my prayers for sure! I am glad you are are still goingto Ohio, and I know by personal experience when we get so low that all we can do is look up, that God is right there and He has all the power to meet your need. Love you, Kama

    hey buddy,
    don’t give up. maybe she could just take one or two classes. that’s what i had to do. does she qualify for a pell grant or a student loan? don’t be afraid of the student loan thing. anyhow, what i really wanted to tell you was that there are reasons for everything. stay close to God right now and i just know something will come your way. my kids are the most important thing to me also, so i totally feel your pain. know that you are loved and prayed for.

    I know how upsettign this can be. But youa re doing alot more than alot of parents do. My parents paid $0 for me when i went to college. Didn’t even so much as give me gas money when I loaded up my car for the 18 hour drive form San Antonio TX to Columbia MO all alone.Hell they didn’t even take of work for an hour to see me off when I left!! It was one fo the saddest yet most important days of my life in my opinion. It was the day I finally learned what my dad had spent my entire life to that point to drill into me!! YOU CAN’T COUNT ON ANYONE BUT YOURSELF!! becuas ein the end of the day your life is just that YOUR life. Man umm yeah I guess I am still a little bitter, but my point was Brittany understands that you would pay for it if you could, and I am sure I will get lots of hate mail form this, btu isn’t she working? Also there is financial aid and all kinds of things out there that students can do on our own. I knwo you are mamma and want to provide for her every need but she is a young woman. I am sure she understands btu ti is jsut sooo hard when it comes to education. I eventually had to leave school becuase when my mother married her current husband he is like practically a millionare so they felt I didn’t have a financial need anymore and took away my scholarship since it was a “need” based one. And of course he wasn’t going to pay for me to go to school, so I had to leave school and get a job, and it was hard and I was super depressed for about 6 months, btu again it made me stronger. I guess my whole point was that summer sessions are great, btu Brittany is very lucky to have you and to be able ot attend any session!!!!!!!!!!

    I don’t kwno, I don’t think what i am trying to say is coming out right, btu you are a WONDERFUL mother, we know it, you SHOULD know it, and I am SURE Brittany knows it!!!I know you are upset though and I hope you get to feeling better!!!
