Help and Prayers for Misty

Donation protected
Our family has faced some very difficult times in the last year. With the devastating loss of my income, we struggle just to pay rent and utilities. Very rarely do we have extra to even get food for our home. Recently my health took a horrible turn for the worst. With the increased testing, doctors appointments and Specialists appointments the bills have continued to sink us. Even with insurance, we have a $5000 deductible so we are having to pay every thing out of pocket. We are constantly having to decide which medications and treatments we can afford and often, I am failing to get my medications or test because of the cost. This is turn is only causing more health issues and concerns.

I am not good at asking for any kind of help from anyone. However, I feel this is my only option to ensure I can get the treatment I need to get better. The stress alone has created chaos for my 3 autoimmunes that I have had for years and now the addition of Graves Disease being the 4th autoimmune. Currently most days it is difficult to even get out of bed or have any quality of life, as the health issues continue to spin out of control. To see my therapist alone is $200 every week, yet this is critical in my steps to get better and get the stress and contributing factors under control.

My family continues to suffer financially and emotionally due to our current situation and my Medical issues. It is essentially in getting me healthy, to be able to to continue treatment, testing and seeing my Specialists. The current symptoms make it almost impossible to maintain a job and obtain income to provide for our family. So I am turning to friends and family and swallowing any pride I have to ask for help. Every little bit would help allow me to continue treatment and the neccessary appointments to get better.

As my friends and family know, I am a very strong, hardworking and independent woman. I would give anyone anything that I could to make their lives a little better. I am used to being a provider for my family and doing what needs to be done to make sure that happens. It is very difficult for me to not have ANY income coming in, and somehow the state thinks we still make to much with only my husband working. 1/3 of his check goes to insurance that is not even covering my office visits. This is extremely hard and stressful on me to see my family suffer so much, including worrying if we will have power every day or gas for my husband to get to work. I am embarrassed when I can't even provide food for my family or myself to eat.

So this is my last option as I swallow any pride I have left to reach to friends and family and beg for help. I need to be able to get better, so please don't judge me, as this is the hardest most humiliating thing I have ever had to do for myself and my family. However, I want to live and get better to see my son and my precious granddaughter grow up.

Thank you in advance for any help you can assist with. You will never how grateful I am ❤.
