Get Back Up

Donation protected
I don’t like asking for help but I’m at the point that I need to reach out for help a few days ago I lost the function of being able to urinate normally. Like I would drink water be filled and my bladder and brain aren’t talking to each other to say hey you have to go to the bathroom. I saw a urologist and they told me to catheter myself three times a day. Yesterday I got a UTI from it and now I have a catheter and a urine bag attached and a nurse visiting me at home. I haven’t been able to work and when I did work I felt low energy and dizzy. I have bills coming in fast and just need some help to Pay bills until I get back up and on my feet. if you find it in your heart to help me I will not forget this and I’ll pay it forward. If you can’t help please raise awareness. For everyone who battles an autoimmune disease: It takes an average of 3 years and 5 doctors for someone to get a proper diagnosis of an autoimmune illness. Wish more people and doctors understood what an autoimmune illness is. It is not like a cold or the flu. You will never get better. You will suffer every day. Even a nap will not help the fatigue. These illnesses are invisible to society but not to those who must fight them every day and their loved ones. In honor of someone who is fighting Hashimoto Disease, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Sarcoidosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, MS, Hepatitis, Diabetes, Celiac, Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, PBC, or CIDP, Every autoimmune illness may stay with you for life and affects every aspect of it! Autoimmune illness needs more awareness and research to help people.lets shed a light on this
