Struggling Disabled Veteran Seeks Debt Relief Solution

by Clark Williams
(Hastings, Nebraska, USA)

I am 54 years old and have been a disabled veteran for 37 years. I have three boys and my wife and I want them to get a good education.

The oldest is teaching now but his college bills are coming due and my wife and I said we would help him out in paying them.

My business is slow and my wife is working two jobs but it still is tough to pay those bills. I cannot work another job because of my amputation of the left leg below the knee.

We also have another son in college and we want to see his dream of becoming a major league baseball player come true and are now needing to start paying on his college.

Our third boy is still in high school and we want to be able to assure him that he too will also be able to go to college in two years. Unfortunately if we can't pay the other two boys' bills off shortly he may not get his opportunity to further his education.

Our middle boy is diabetic and back when he was diagnosed we ran up a lot of credit card bills to be able to pay for his supplies. My wife and I were both working but our incomes were not enough to pay for his needs and the needs of the rest of the family too.

We got behind and have never been able to catch up. Now with college bills coming due it is getting us farther behind and we need help! We are still buying the supplies for our middle boy and even with insurance it is still tough.

Our credit card bills are still piling up but some how we have managed to keep them current!

We're just asking for help to pay our bills down so we can keep our boys going and hopefully see our grandkids grow up if we ever get any!

Thank you for letting me share my story and may GOD bless those who are willing to help! Sincerely, Clark Williams Hastings, Nebraska.
