this could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Mohammedia so I could bring a meal.
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
How is Mahmoud doing now?
shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Cầu Giấy donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Best of luck, Mahmoud. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Coyoacán.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Mahmoud
Rent arrears (5 months) is $1,400 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.
Sending good thoughts, Mahmoud. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted.
Take care, Mahmoud. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
Wishing you peace, Mahmoud. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
Take care, Mahmoud. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings
Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Jeddah.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. Love from Mumbai
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Campinas.
Good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best
Thanks for sharing this. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
I hope things turn around soon. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 31 people at work. Thinking of Jeddah
