Hello. My name is Krista Carroll, and I am the mother of a three year old beautiful baby girl. A year and a half ago my life took a turn for the terrible. My mother, who is also my best friend, was involved in a terrible accident in which three vertibraes in her back were crushed. She has always been very strong for me. She worked three jobs to raise me when I was young. We have been through so much together over the last 21 years. After my moms accident i moved back home to help the family. I am now the only one able to work to support a family of four. This family includes myself, my 3 year old daughter, my 8 year old brother, and my mom. I can hardly make enough money to keep food on the table and clothes on our backs. This is a very difficult thing for me to do but I must remain strong for my family. I am the only thing keeping us afloat. I had to take a break from finishing school and my dream. I haven't been able to keep up on my bills and now my entire credit history is ruined. I could have finananced my own home at twenty years old and now I cant even finance a pair of shoes. I just want to pay my bills and go back to school so I can open up my salon that I have dreamed of for as long as I can remember. Even if you can't help, I thank you for reading my story.
