Here I am my hands are shivering...I cannot believe how hard it is to post here. I am a mother of a beautiful 3 yr old girl. Recently I had to go to the hospital because of terrible stomach pains, after much testing including loads of bloodwork and a catscan of my stomach and pelvis they found a large cyst on my kidney. Due to the fact that I do not have insurance I cannot go for followup care or even purchase the medication prescribed to me to ease the pain. The total of all my medical bills is $5,300. More than I could ever imagine the testing in itself would cost. I am behind on utility bills and the winter is coming...the cost of gas heat is tremendous (almost $200 every other month!). I am terrified that even with how hard I work and with the pain I have...it will not be enough. When I think of my little girl suffering because I cannot provide for her how I need to, it almost kills me. I do not use credit cards, I never have and never will...I pay for what I can with what I make. I do not know what to do. I look to the skies and ask for help and I worry that perhaps my cries of help have fallen on deaf ears because every day I live with bills on top of bills. I know there are probobly other people here who need money more so than I do, and please help them...but should you find it in your heart to help me then god bless you! All I can do is be grateful for what I do have and hope for the best. If one day, things look better...I want to give to those of you who really need it. I know what it feels like, and no one should live this way. Even if you cannot give, words of encouragement are appreciated.
Blessings to you all.
