Broke my clavicle
Donation protected
Hi guys, this was honestly the last thing I ever wanted to do. If you know me you know I hate hand outs and am the kind of man that earns his $ every week by working hard for it.
Last Tuesday I broke my clavicle. I’ve been an electrician for the past 12 years and need both arms to do my job. I’m going to be out of work for a while because of this and I’m not sure how long or when I’ll be able to get temporary disability. Or how long it will take to hit my bank account.
It’s embarrassing even typing this out right now but for the most part I live paycheck to paycheck and just spent the rest of my bank account on this months rent and have car payments and utility bills coming through in the next few days. My gas tank is bouncing off E and my credit cards are just about maxed out.
I’m in a gap where I don’t even have health insurance and have to go to the Orthopedic tomorrow and may have to undergo surgery to have my bone reset. I’m at the point where I’ll willingly just go into medical debt because I can’t afford to pay the ridiculous amounts it costs to receive medical care.
I’m trying to sell my guitars and gear just to be able to pay my bills and provide for my kids while I’m recovering. With that said, if you are a musician please reach out to me and I can show you what I have available. It’s honestly all up for grabs right now :/
I’m the first person to understand how tight money is in this economy and it disgusts me to be in this position right now. If you can donate anything at all I will be forever grateful and when I’m healed I will do everything I can to repay the favor whether it be in electrical work, helping in any way I can with my truck, lending myself to any musical endeavors, etc.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
