Help with medical and Living expenses

Hi friends, believe me the last thing I ever thought I would do is create a GoFundMe page. But at the recommendation of some friends and family I thought why not.

I have been in need of a life-changing total anatomical shoulder replacement surgery and upwards of three years now. I have been suffering with a 10 out of 10 pain every second of the day for many years now. I can’t tell you how debilitating in that is and I have had no quality of life for a while.

All I have is state funded medi cal insurance that has been probably the worst experience of my life. It took me over a year to find a surgeon after filing a grievance with the insurance.. I had been bumped around for months to different specialists, but none of them had anything to do with shoulders!

The reason for the cancellations are complicated, but I need to have a Pain Management doctor in place before he will do the surgery. There’s some very specific details along with that that would be too hard to explain, but after four or five attempts, I have not been able to find one that will work with me, at least from the small list of doctors to choose from that my insurance covers.

In the meantime, I have literally been suffering for almost 3 years, passing out and going into panic attacks from the pain that I have no control over. I have been out of work due to this mainly for around seven months now. I attempt to do food delivery work, anything I can do to make a little bit, but it just hasn’t panned out for me.

Anyways, this was a last resort. I appreciate anyone that reads this, I’m afraid I’ve been beaten down for so many years. I just don’t have much energy left to fight insurance companies and call doctors on the phone all day. I would really love just to be the patient and try and figure out a way to make all this happen so the pain will be no longer. Recovery can be an upwards of a year..

Thank you all and hope you’re having a great day, Jeff and Lucy
