the salvation army and toys for tots said it was to late. i am trying to figure out who i can talk to.i have emailed the springfield police and fire department about it. a friend of mines daughter has put the kids on the angel tree at her high school. but we do not know how that is going to go.
my foance son to be husband is not able to work or drive any more due to the fact that he has had cancer but has been in remisson for a few year.no insurance company in tn will touch him. and his doctors have told him he could not go back to work and that he can not drive any more. the only thing that is paying the bills is my ssi check and child support. we are getting food stamps that is helping us get grocies.
so we are not going to be able to get christmas for our children.

look this computer is not my computer it is my soon to be husbands that his mom bought him.to stay in touch with his childen.and i have tryed to get a job no one will hire me in this town.
people from tn only seems to care about themselfs and unless you are rich and pretty or goodlooking no one will hire any one in tn.
i have all ready found that out.
so are children will not be able to have christmas.
springfield tn only care about the people that are rich and pretty. and if not pretty and not in the click then you are a outcast in this town.
he can not hardly walk and doctors said not to work and not to drive so his cancer is in remisson and his legs are in no shape to be able to do any thing.
so the only thing is left for me to do is contact the news people and let them know what this state and towns are doing to people.

I'm sorry to hear that you are having such a difficult time, but am glad to hear that your fiancee is in remission!
The best way to get some things for your children for christmas is to go to your church and talk to your pastor, priest or whatever you call him/her. Explain your situation and I am sure that they will be only too willing to ask people to donate small toys and gifts to the cause. Christmas is a big deal for children and all of them should get something.
You could contact their father and ask him to help out. In fact, you should insist on it..they are his children too.
I would say though that I think you have given up on the job search a little prematurely, every town has fastfood restaurants and they hire just about anybody. I know it is not the perfect job scenario but if it puts a turkey on the table and some gifts under the tree...why not?

you really should try selling some of your possessions.Sell some food stamps..do something!! I do not have a lot of money and my children are still getting Christmas.. use some of that child support money...it's called that for a reason. do not punish your children for your misfortune. Even the dollar store has cheap toys you could buy . a few dollars on each kids and there will be Christmas after all....I know it's no PS3 or my size barbie but it's something.

Disconnect your internet and sell your computer if it's that desperate. If you can afford luxuries, you can afford Christmas.
Excuse me, I live in Tennessee--- And I happen to know for a fact that your statements about this state are false. WHy don't you just go apply for a job flipping burgers or something?? Supporting kids means WORK and sometimes that means doing things that you feel are "beneath you"
You shouldn't have kids if you aren't willing to make every sacrifice possible to ensure their happiness..
Maybe instead of having his mother send him a computer, your husband should have asked his mother to help buy Christmas for the kids. That doesn't sound right..

If you can afford Internet service it really makes your story appear to be quite unbelievable
