Medical Bills are killing me!

Hello to everyone who took the time to stop by to offer help. I have been unemployed and uninsured for almost a year. I have recently been hospitalized twice in less than a month. The first time for pneumonia, the second for what was thought to be a heart attack, but ended up being a heart disease called Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy. I also had 5 ER visits in this same time period as I went to the ER before each hospitalization and 3 ER visits for a torn rotator cuff/pinched nerve in my left arm.

The pinched nerve/rotator cuff have resulted in total lack of feeling in my thumb and pointer finger. I have not been able to pursue any further testing of my arm because I lack the funds to pay $250 for the office visits required due to my lack of insurance.

I have worked for most of my life and have burned through all of my savings trying to pay for my medical care. Each of my prescriptions is at least $20 each and I’m currently taking 6 medications a month. Not sure if I can even pay for next month’s 2 Blood Pressure medications, 2 different prescriptions for the nerve damage in my arm, and 2 medications for other chronic illnesses that I have.

I’m a Mom, a Mammaw (to seven grandkids in Michigan), a Mimi (to 3 grandkids in North Carolina), a partner to a wonderful man and a sister. I didn’t use Gorilla Glue on my hair. I’m not an anti-vaxxer who ended up with COVID. I’m just a simple person looking for a some help in this crazy world. I wish I could take care of myself without asking for help from strangers. The bills are mounting and I’ve got no insurance, no income and no safety net to catch me. I know that everyone is going through a hard time so any help that comes will be appreciated.

I hope that you see me and know that I’m worthy of being helped even though I’m not famous. I’m not going to have my story on the news. I’m just a regular person looking for extraordinary people to help me. Thank you in advance for your generosity,
