The story above is not very detailed, just a simplified overview, but I am willing to be very open about our circumstances.
I will contact @luanne, she seems like good people. I am not able to be on Steemit for long periods at a time due to having an elderly phone that cannot handle the platform.
Thank you for taking time to help us, it's incredibly humbling.
here is a post that will hopefully solve that problem for you!

Ok we have a smartphone coming to you so that you can view your steemit.. We had a very quick reply to my post from @crystalize and she offered to immediately get you one shipped. Staying connected and being able to learn how steemit functions is very key going forward. This phone should help you to speed up your learning process, so I'm very excited for you!
I will also find a way to put it on a "straight talk" pay as you go plan from walmart so that you can use a phone plan that is 30 days at a time. We will also work with you to afford that plan, and will get you started by getting you the first phone card which will get you 30 days. From there we can work with you to do different things and hopefully help you to earn enough money to take care of all of your needs.
So I need your address to be able to have the phone sent to you. You might not want to put it here online. So you can either contact @luanne and tell her, contact me via email or call me by phone if you have access to one. Just tell me which you prefer and I will get you the proper contact info!
As soon as I get your address then @crystalize will ship you one of her phones. I'm so excited for you to get this because you have a wonderful path ahead of you once you learn how everything works!
I'll go to sleep now, but I will be back around 10am est tomorrow morning
its ok about not being able to be on for long periods of time because of your phone, we can work around that. I will let you and @luanne connect first and then either of you can let me know that you have done so.
I have one question for you right now though, what is your schedule like? Do you work a 9 to 5 job or anything like that?
I work 7-3, though the last couple of weeks have been hit-or-miss due to illness striking the trio.
I'm going to write a post right now and see if we can get you a workable phone so that you can stay connected to steemit on the days that you aren't at work and we can teach you how to earn extra money.
And I see that there are far bigger fish here that have come to your aid... I think they know more than I do, so I hope you follow through with their advice...
We will do our best and hopefully do our part to help you and as @denmarkguy says, do your best to respond to everyone that commented to you. Its is a way they get to know you better and it will help you in the days and weeks ahead as you make these connections. Everyone here is here because they feel empathy for your situation.
Ok I will write my post now and I'll come back and put it in the reply section when I'm done so that you can be introduced to even more people!
Oh my goodness. This is so much more than I ever expected.
God bless @hickorymack, we’ve all read her story and are touched by it. Show your your glory now, and relieve her worldly hiccups.
Thank you. 💙
