Keep writing about your story; Steemit is a very supportive community and it DOES have the ability to make a difference in your life. I'm glad to see @davemccoy and @luanne have reached out. @richq11 might also be a good resource; he's one of Steemit's CPS corruption experts. You can also reach out to @familyprotection.
Meanwhile, to everybody else reading this: You can help @hickorymack immediately by also spending a little of your voting power (remember this doesn't COST you anything!) to upvote all of her RESPONSES on this post! Remember, if enough people come through here and drop 20c, 50c and $1.00 upvotes on a number of comments, it quickly can add up.
@hickorymack if you have the ability to, you can help yourself by responding to as many of people's comments here as possibly, which will enable others to come through and upvote your comments. These may seem like very small things, but I have witnessed this community rally and greatly help those in need.
(Upvoting my own comment ONLY to give these suggestions more visibility)
Just a suggestion, but people can use a voting bot to send some money to this post also; I'm going to since my vote is only worth 1 or 2 cents. @hickorymack deserves it and then some!
That is also an excellent idea @lynncoyle1!
One of our witnesses @yabatmatt created the handy "Steem Bot Tracker" which lists most of the current voting bots: https://steembottracker.com/
Thank you...I love that site. I actually used it to upvote here already :) Unfortunately there are always people who may not understand the process fully and transfer money in the last few seconds which brought down the total for @hickorymack. But any little bit is helpful I guess :) Cheers!
Done. <3
I second that motion to reach out to @familyprotection!
Thank you so much for helping her @denmarkguy. Its awesome to see the people responding to her situation and the advice and guidance she is seeing. I also appreciate you bringing in far more experienced steemians because while we will do our best, the group I'm working with is made up of many smaller fish and our options are limited. Its all about helping @hickorymack, so we will be happy to do our part and either lead or support based on what works best for her and her children.
I'm going to write up a post of my own right now and see if we have anyone with a working smartphone they could donate to her so that we can get her connected and help her to learn steemit and maybe earn some extra by writing about her life experiences.
Thanks again, its nice to see so many awesome people assemble in one place to truly come to the aid of someone who really could use a break!
