Bryan's Journeys back to healthy and happiness

Hey y'all, Bryan here.

Asking for help is one of the hardest things I’ve been learning to do, but it is necessary sometimes. I just spent a little over a week in the hospital due to a combination of a life-long illness, long covid symptoms, and medicine interactions which created one of the scariest experiences I have ever been through. The full details are honestly too much to go into right now, but I am very lucky to have the support and love of my family and friends.

Because of this medical emergency, I am not able to work right now and I’m not sure when I will be ready to go back. Although my medical bills will be taken care of through Medicaid and I will always have a roof over my head, money is running tight. I am hoping to get on disability, but I know that is not guaranteed. I am asking for help to take care of the other parts of my life I have neglected over the last three years as my illnesses progressed. I need to fix up my house, I need new glasses, and I need to be able to travel to visit my friends and family. I miss them dearly and I know nourishing those relationships will help my own recovery.

I know money is tight for a lot of people right now, too. There is no pressure, I appreciate any help you can give. Thank you for your endless support. I hope to pay this all forward one day.
