:T :T :T Sammy,
You are such a strong person! I don't know anyone that would be getting through this the way that you are! So first of all BRAVO!!!! Keep your chin up, it seems you do have guardian angels so hold out hope that things will get better.
Secondly, to all you wonderful OS'ers out there - thankyou for being you! I have always found you all so incerdibly approachable and supportive but never thought you could stretch your kindness even farther.
I feel really touched and privileged to belong to this little community.
Love, hugs and happiness to you all.

Sammy, what wonderful, wonderful gestures. That brought a lump to my throat too.
Having been where you are now I know exactly how it is.. but that budget earlier was simply amazing.. I only wished I could have had somewhere as brilliant as this at my time of intense need.
Those 2 OS members have super polished halo's and they certainly deserve them. I hope your surprise delivery sees you thrjough the next few weeks until you next get some money and can live properly rather than just 'survive'
The only thing I found that works with agencies like CTC is badger them until they give in! Daily, twice a day, whatever you can manage don't let them forget you.. they push you through just to get rid of your nagging!!
Crisis loans are difficult.. they take about 3 months to process IME.. Maybe yours would be more efficient.
Here's praying for a brighter few weeks!!
