My name is Deborah, and I am disable I have been disable for awhile from back surgery(damage nerves in my back and legs and I walk with a limp) and can no longer work as before I became disable. I love working for I was a hard worker and took pride in my and I used to love helping people and still do when I can,because physically I cannot do things like I used to for I have chronic pain 24/7,but I could not let the pains enter and distrup my life for I have to surive. I had some pt jobs doing phone work for I have to make some income( it is not much but would help the household). March,2007 I started a job pt. working for a very nice company(cleaning service) doing phone calls to business to make appts. for the sales rep. I had my own office and this was just the right job for me since I became disable,but on April,18,2007 I was diagnosis with breast cancer(3 tumors in my left breast)and it had spread I had to have surgery,chemotherapy,and radiatation for 6mos.during the treatments I try to work but it was hard my boss was really understanding about my illness,but I could not perform my duties any longer so the company had to let me go and financial it has been very hard for me and my family for we had to do a moderfication loan for we almost lost our home,bills got behind and medical bills just piling up we are trying very hard to stay above water. I felt like this cancer has mess up my life for I was getting back in the job market working and feeling good about myself financial things were going to be good no great! with GOD's help. really had me depress so I but my heart into helping people in the community with there church functions and doing small dinner party's and banquets for the town and making floral arrangements I did not charge for my services I was doing it so that I would not go into a deep depression it was the only way I could be alive and just feel good again. My children ask me a question thequestion was " mom what do you like to do" and I told them that "I enjoy decorating for banquets,small wedding receptions,dinner partys,and ect". I love doing flower arrangements and they say to me then why not start your own business for you are good at what you do and you love doing special event's so try it and that is what I did I am doing small banquets and small special events. During,the holidays I show some of my work at a fall festival and at the fleamarket and sold all my floral arrangements and a lady was in press with my work and she offer me a job to handle all customers that wants the chairs to be decorate for their event and most of their contracts have guests from 100 to 400 guests. I had to give up 4 events just this year because I cannot get the capital to buy the supplys for my small business I try everything but my credit is not good it is fair and I just cannot get the loan. I need your help please help me find someone who will take a chance on me for I need a second chance in life. I beat the cancer and I am surviving. Please help me to go to the next level with my business I do not want a hand out for I will pay it back long term fix rate. Thank you for your time. God Bless. Deborah.
