hi guys, my name is Francisco I'm 21 years old from Portugal and I'm a college student. I'm having a really tough time at my life right now. My mom can't work at the moment because she has some problems in her arms and shoulders due to her previous work in a industry and she's waiting for a surgery do recover her shoulders. She also has fibromyalgia since 2015. My dad has a small business that hasn't worked well in the past months and everything is starting to fall due to lack of money. So I've tried everything with banks and asked for help to some people but nothing worked and I don't know what to do more. We're running out of time cause some things can't wait. So I decided to come here ask for your help. I need around 1500 dollars/1200 euros to clear everything. If all of u guys could give a dollar and reach that quantity i would be really really thankful.Even if we can't reach that amount it will definitly help a lot. If u wanna help please tell me in private. Please share and like the comment and share my post. Maybe we can make it reach Gaga and maybe she can give a little help too. Thank u all.

Hello Gaga, hope you are feeling better these days! Sorry for disturbing. My name is Bahaa Al Deen Hilal from Lebanon, I'm 21 years old! Ive been a fan since day one, when i knew about the Joanne world tour i got so excited so i started working all day long 12 hours shift just to watch you live, so in September i traveled to Barcelona to see and when i arrived to the airport i saw the tweet that you postponed the show, i got so sad and couldn't enjoy my trip enough but i told my self its okay your health is more important. So when i came to lebanon i saw that you tweeted about the re scheduled dates. I told my parents that i wanted to travel to see you live but they rejected to help me money wise since i live in a humble family , and me and my parents help each other to pay my tuition fees . So we had a fight and they told that they will take a loan just for me to travel to paris to see you and they wont pay any one my tuition fees for the next semester which is 1500$ ( which is really hard to collect in lebanon since the minimum wage is very low here ) and then i booked my flight and hotel and everything before 2 days from the cancellation of the paris shows! I contacted the airlines and hotel but they couldn't refund my tickets! Im so feeling down these couple of days because of the cancellation and because that i could pay for my college and I'm afraid that they wont let...
