I know this is a long shot but this is a list of some of the leading researchers in the field that have won grants to study and research.  Perhaps you could contact them and they would have some better ideas and really good connections.  Possibly may get some free treatment for research purposes.

Last night it snowed like crazy.  We probably got about a foot of snow.  I went out and shoveled out my car in the middle of the night figuring to get a jump on things.  After a job well down and a calm walk back to my warm apartment to take some tylenol I noticed that the stairs and sidewalk to the parking lot was still covered in snow.  I guess the part of me that thought about the small children around an icy staircase, the elderly person that doesn't have the ability to trudge through the snow, maybe its someone that...maybe it's just someone that doesn't walk through the snow.  I shoveled the place spotless.  I wanted to put up a sign when I was done saying, I did this for those that couldn't.  When all my abilities leave me, when the strength of my youth becomes fleeting.  Perhaps someone will shovel a clean path to greet my winter wonderland.

I thought a forum of people with the same condition may make you feel like you are not alone because you are not.  They also may know of some unique opportunities to receive free care.  Consider this a start but not an end to my efforts on your behalf.

I have had a lot of people take off in my life too.  To answer you question I am not married but I am dating a wonderful girl.  I am actually 26 almost 27 but for some reason it says 25 on my profile and I can't change it.  Well i don't want to talk about what brings you down....what brings you up?  :)

yeah, give me some time on this.  I promise I won't forget about you.  I am off to bed.  I will do the best I can.  I hope in the least I can bring you the notion that some stranger cares and that will bring joy to your family.

I don't know if your boyfriend would be able to donate some income before taxes to charity and that would perhaps put you at the level that you are looking for to receive assistance....just a thought to look in to.

I like that idea.  I will do so.  All of us are in this together. 

perhaps you will like my Christmas Tree post!  :)

perhaps you will like my Christmas Tree post.  :)

you aren't alone....at all.  I have OCD and anxiety disorder and this is certainly very common even if you are depressed, tired, stressed and so on.  No need to panic I promise.  I can say that you should take a proactive approcach to this and perhaps talk to someone you trust that is a professional, maybe a teacher or guidence counselor.  Talking is great therapy and helped me a lot.  There are so many other steps that you can take so honestly, don't worry.  You will be ok .  Like I said, just be proactive and mention this to someone so you can start healing today...wouldn't that be nice having things get better from this point on.  I wish you the best.  God Bless

Well today I cut down a Christmas tree from my parents yard.  Man we got some crazy ice storm the other night.  Well let me tell you this is no "Charlie Brown" christmas tree of years past that I have had to endure.  No my friends.  This is a majestic, towering, beautiful tree whose pine scent is warmly greeted each time I come home to my apartment.  Hang in there, this is going somewhere...So my oversize tree of perfect form looks as appropriate as a tree could look.  Except for this.  I won't decorate this tree, no shine or glitter, no sparkling lights, I just can't this year.  I can hang one thing of splendor.  I won't do it.  What joy do I take from reading a story that your heart shared with me...just for me to hang an ornament and think about you for a few passing moments.  I don't deserve your time.  My tree this year is a majestic tree, humbled by being stipped of everything that it is used to.  No flashing lights, no glamour, no decorations, no theme.  I feel that maybe some of my audience feels a lot like my tree.  Stripped of their ornaments, stripped of thier pride, forced to humbly stare the Christmas season in the face wanting to hide in their shame.  I cut my tree from my parents yard.  I have seen it in all its glory and my tree knows that it's purpose was to remind me of the humbleness I need to have.  That some of us have learned.  My tree will remain humble, a simple reminder that perhaps the further I stay away from a mall, the closer to Christmas I will truly be.  God Bless you all.

I read you story and I was truly touched.  Although I have no money to give, I have my time and expertise.  I am a marketing manager and spend most of my time on the internet researching just about everything.  I would like to set some time aside to help research whatever you may need.  I have decent networking and research skills so perhaps I can find someone that can at least get you closer to what you hope to achieve.  In the mean time God Bless and know that love never fails.  :)    Let me know specifics of how I can help.

I am not pleased at my current job.  Every day I walk in, sit down at my desk, turn on my monitor, make a cup of coffee and start trying to sell services that in this economy are a luxury.  I get down, sales are slow, I complain........I'm sorry.  Every night I pray and give thanks that I have a blessing (otherwise known as a job)  I am set back by so many of these stories that it just re-enforces the fact that I should sit down and thank the lord for what I have, not dwell on what I have not.  I would like to say that I do consider myself one of the lucky ones, not in the fact that I have a job, but in the fact that I am called to serve.  I don't have much, but all I have is yours.  Peace of Christ be with you all.  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

How much does a passport photo cost?

The Salvation Army and Toys for Tots would be a great start.  From there I am sure that they can help guide you to other organizations.

I may have some time over the weekend to do some research into programs regarding assistance that are in your area.  I have no money to send but I can hopefully point you in the right direction.  I just got out of work so my mind is spent.  I'm going to take a break from the computer but I will come back and look for some links.  Hang in there, and know that you are not alone.

I am a US citizen and I am looking to move to Canada in the next 8 months.  I don't have a passport yet.  I am basically overwhelmed and don't know where to begin.  If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.  I don't know if anyone knows anyone that has made this move that could help walk me through it.  Thank you and God Bless.
