I've finally broken down and am asking for help

I can't stand the thought of being without my family at Christmas. I love my mom with all my heart. And while I love LC as well, it isn't the same as "my mama." And I know he understands this. That's one of the reasons I love him so much.

The price of airfare at Christmas would have made the trip difficult. I may not have been able to swing it without some personal loans...those EVIL payday loans that charge waaaay too much interest. (Yes, blogging world, my credit sucks)
*
Now the soon-to-be-ex is gone (hallelujah!) But I have more bills. Not only do I have more day to day bills that I can handle on my income. But thanks to what began as a concussion that has developed into waaaay more, I have ongoing medical bills with specialists and new tests. And NO answers! *sigh*

Anyways, I digress. I haven't even told my mom about the whole story. I wanted to protect her from the pain. I believed that at 72 she had experienced enough and did not want to add to it. And I wouldn't have told her, but now things are worse and I don't know where they'll end up.

Please help me to see my mom at Christmas. I know there is no way I can afford to go without some help. And Santa told me his sleigh is full this year.... :o(
