My name is Edell Rowe -Purich. For over twenty years I was a caretaker for my late husband Melvin.  When he died I was 45 year sold. At that time my girls were married and in colloge. I thought the time had come to take care of myself. About a year and a half things changed. I had my first heart attack. Two stents later my health started to break down.  I already  suffered the pain of fibromyalga, now my heart is failing. CHF. Things have escalated. Now I have CHF, COPD/asthma, must use oxygen 24/7. Non-smoker. Diabetes millitus, type 2, with hyperglycemia, a pacemaker, HTF- Hypertension, Sleep Apnea, history of TIA's and now isthemic vascular didease. Diabetes is causing the narrowing of my blood vessels. Along with all of that I have Gastroparesis, osteoarthritis, more stents,3strokes, 3 heartattacks, 15 different med each day. The meds do not include the insulin, the enhalers or treatments to breath, the nitrogen patches, eating right and drinking lots of water. I really thought I would have been able to spoil grandchildren, work and live a productive life. I try to stay positive, but I get depressed.

I cannot control my diabetes, I need an insulin pump.  Because I stopped working to take care of my sick husband and later getting sick I have very little income and Medicare does not pay for insulin pumps. Only the meds that Go in them.

I have tried for almost a year to find a way to get one. I just can't afford it. I decided to see if I can get help this way.

I want to more time out of bed. Loving my family and friends, just feeling better. I need something to happen now, I want to see progress. I need money now. Please help. I thank you so much for reading this. It means so much to me. With love and appreciation.
