Thank you for sharing. Debt is definitely hard. We have been there. I had cancer years ago and even with insurance....so much debt the next several years. Medical emergencies come up. Keep working at it! My husband is working multiple jobs right now to pay stuff. So happy for your 15th baby! ❤
Thank you so much for your transparency ❤️ Your story will be very encouraging to those struggling! Praying that you are able to pay off your debt quickly 🙏
Thank you for your transparency. I also want to say sorry for your loss. I just wanted to send some love and pray that God continues to bless you with strength and peace.
MommaBear. The world needs more people like you. I believe even if you did not have God in your life, that you would still be a phenomenal person. Bless you and your family and thank you for being a positive example for the world. 😊
Fiddleheads are grown here in New Brunswick and we love them. I was so surprised and excited that you guys have fiddleheads in Maine, when you mentioned it. Woot Woot.
I lost my husbsnd from the C- protocols. Yes the hospitals got alot of money especially if they died on the Ventilators thats why they pushed them. I didn't get snd money but did get some money to pay funeral expenses. But the hospitals got 40,0000 for each death on the vent. It's disgusting and many were treated horrible. Anybody that died during that time. It was labeled the C so they could get money. They also got kick backs for every dose of remdesvir. There are many lawsuits that have been started. Many of us widows or widowers were treated awful. I am so sorry you lost your son. And sharing your story inspired me. I have 8 children, 5 of which we adopted.
Yes!!! I’m so sorry you lost your husband especially like this! I agree 💯 it was discussing. I asked for alternatives they would even give him vitamin c!
I worked and currently do work in a hospital and through Covid pandemic. We tried so hard to keep our patients from going onto a ventilator. I’m sorry for your experience but please know we cared for our patients and it was a really hard time for us. I still struggle with all that I saw.
I'm so sorry you lost your son. I'm so sorry you had to go through that. But your story really showed how unbelievably courageous you and your husband have been and what a good team you have been throughout your marriage
You're right, debt is a burden!! Fortunately my husband and I are (almost) debt free after twenty seven years, but there were many nights during that time that I laid awake, wondering how we would pay the bills. What did stick in my mind was that God would always provide, and every time it got to a stage where we were desperate, He did. God is good.
My heart breaks for you going through all of this! I am so happy that you are in your own house on your own land! That can stay in your family for generations! It seems the spending you do benefits your family!! ❤ I am so sorry to hear about your son. 💔 He was blessed to have parents like you. Were you born and raised in Maine? Sweet little girl!! 💕 She looks like you, Mommabear! ❤
Thank you! I was born and raised on cape cod MA we lived from MA to FL then finally found Maine a place we could afford to live and live. If that makes sense.
Thank you for sharing. You are not alone. In the 2008 fiasco we took a horrific financial hit...but like others we worked our way through and OUT of debt. It takes determination and discipline (honestly there were times I wanted to give up and quit!) But Financial Freedom is truly priceless. Although, whew I'm glad it's behind us. Haha Take extra care of yourself mama.🙂 Wishing everyone a happy day.❤
The best thing you could have done is buy the camper. All we have is the here and the now. We are Jenner guaranteed next year, not even tomorrow. We bought a cabin in northern Ontario for just the same reason…. Our brain tumor son loved to fish for big Canadian fish…. 💕💕💕 we had our son for 25 years….
I am appalled at the costs for your son’s funeral….and the fact they get away with charging those exorbitant costs. You will get there…debt free…you have a strong head on your shoulders and the inner strength that will take you through the worst times to the best. Stay positive!!!! X
We also left a high expense state (Washington) and moved to a low cost state (Missouri) and worked on being debt free. No greater feeling!! We now are mortgage free and debt free four years later!
Thank you for being honest dept is always a burden but you do your best and pay it off congratulation for you baby and blessings for you and your family from heike

No one teaches us how to deal with a dying child.; No one teaches us how to bury a child. We just do all the things. One thing, then the next, then the next. And yes, of course, we have debt. My husband and I raised a child with a brain tumor. We know….
I lost my son who had brain cancer. It wasn’t easy by any means. I just thank the Lord he loved the Lord and is with Jesus. Life is difficult, but with the Lords mercy and favor we will make it through.
For your wish list to work you need to put a PO box adress on your page. And have you ever thought of a Patreon account? People are very giving and generous to people they admire and appreciate. Thank you so much for sharing your journey! I am so sorry for the loss of your son and all the hardships you had to go through during and after. So often the system is crushing people who live out of their hearts. I think you are amazing and an inspiration. Congratulations on your new pregnancy. A 15th child... wow. I wish you and your family lots of love.
I don't understand why my po box wouldn't be on the page Ill look into it I went step by step on how to fill it out. I have never done one before. A couple people asked me if I could set on up. Sometimes all this tech stuff is so over my head. Thank you for you kind works and thank you I'll look into it or have one of my daughters they are alittle more tech savy then me lol.
I went looking and I see now your po box adress can be found on your homepage but not in the info that comes with each video. Since that is the place where you can find the wish list it makes sence to also put the adress there. I know about the tech stuff. I admire you for taking that on. I could never make a video, I can only watch the hard work of others. Good luck! @@mommabear2many
Thanks for sharing ❤ I applied for college a few years back and had severe headaches and withdrew before the deadline but they said that wasn’t considered a true disability. My psychiatrist wrote to them but they said it was too late basically then my Pell grant fell thru making me with the 3600 debt. I had a great credit score using kikoff til that happened now I can’t get my own place because of it and I’m swimming in my credit card debt. Being on welfare doesn’t help because they don’t truly help you get on your feet. I have a disability but I want to work. I just need daycare for my youngest. But the voucher process is truly a joke. So I can work to pay off my debts. Thanks for your transparency and making of this video ❤ love your channel
I’m sorry you are going through all this! I was a single mom years ago and getting help with child care was such a hard process. When I finally got it the lady and her husband where abusing children. They refused to acknowledge this and dropped my child care. 4 years later I went to court with other parents and the person and her husband went to jail! Apparently it was long and bad! I’ll be praying for you. Hugs 🤗
In our state, there are a couple of different in-home and other care taker programs despite where you live. Aside from all the other associated issues, it is generally less expensive to care take in-home than in a facilitiy for most patients.
That was quite a story. Very interesting. I love listening to you. You guys are amazing beautiful family, your daughters, comical, and beautiful. Good luck mama bear if I don’t see you before you have that baby and I pray that baby’s gonna be good no problems please Lord God bless. Love you guys.❤😘🙏
@@mommabear2many No… I live in northern Indiana. Though we chose Riley Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis, I know the Boston Children’s has an excellent reputation! I have several friends who took their children there for primary immune deficiencies…
Having a child with MD is hard. There are so many visits to doctors and tests run on the kids. My daughter has limb girdle Muscular Dystrophy. All of her doctor appointments were 4 hours one way to get her to the doctors that as we were said " Jerry's Kids" went to. I'm sorry that your son had Ducheun MD That one is one of the hardest one on the kids and more so in the family.
That’s debatable. In a way they cap the children. So I usually get about the same as someone with 3 children would. So currently that is going in an emergency fund. We depleted it with a couple recent vehicle repairs.
"Fiddle heads", i wasnt sure if i heard you correctly ... The term fiddlehead is a valid term and refers to the head of a fern frond at the time just before it begins to unfurl.
Oh my gosh i cant believe the price of your house How long have you been in it ? Thank you God that you have a home Renting is nuts GOD SEES ! You sure have had your trials Does your husband have family that can help?
Please take care of yourself , another RUclips Andrea Mills some similarities to your life, passed away from undiagnosed cancer that she had been treating naturally thinking it was back pain from pregnancy etc. Xxxx
@@mommabear2many I lost my son a few years ago. It was during the pandemic and all the funeral homes were overwhelmed. We choose cremation as the least expensive choice $1,400 and had to wait 3 weeks.

You know, her story is sharing the hardships she went through with her family that led to the debt. She isn't rambling....she is sharing her heart and being vulnerable about her debt and finances. That takes guts. Your comment is harsh. Before you speak, think....Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? If not, don't comment. Listen again to her story and what she is sharing....she very much shares about the debt.
@@ashlieleavelle Maybe you should think twice before you come at people with a self-righteous, condescending scolding. You've no authority over me, and you have no right to tell me when I'm allowed to comment. Mind your own business. My comment was not for you. The irony is that if you truly believe what you said in your comment, you would not have left it.
