The Moneybot thread of really sad stories - best one wins

Options
.. a signed photo of my pet newt.

Being far too lazy to make up my own sob story to enter competitions with and sadly lacking in ill or dead relatives I would like to steal yours.

So best sob story gets the prize.

Please feel free to include pictures. I do draw the line at actual dead relatives or pets unless really really funny.

Thank you.

    Any story with both a stick man and a newt would probably win as long as it sounds remotely plausible.
