Every time he see me, like, ‘Oh, here she come! Here she come! She coming for her food.’ I say, ‘You know that!’
I’ve been with the Food Bank going down there for, like, approximately seven years now, and I’ve been getting food, and it’s been helping so much. Sometimes I go home and I cry because I can’t believe this is happening.
My food stamps is, like, seventy seven dollars, and I have to spend cash in order to provide food for me and my kids. I have eight, but I’m four living, so that’s why I’m not here all the time trying to get food and stuff for them. My kids are grateful for anything, and they’re not picky.
They’re grateful for what they get. That’s what I taught them. Like, nobody don’t have to give me anything. My refrigerator just recently broke, and I lost, like, thirty packs of meat.
I was crying. I was like, ‘Oh my god. What I’m gonna do?’
I was diagnosed two and a half years ago with lung disease. Okay. I’m a stop there, and now they’re talking about removing one of my lungs. That’s why I’m out here now.
Getting what I need to get before, you know, it happens.
That way I know they have food in the house. Like I said, I thank God for the Food Bank.
And I thank the people that’s there that, you know, that’s making it possible for us to get it.
God bless you.
I’m so grateful for you. I really am.
I really am.
