Bernie McGee's Medical Fund
Donation protected
It has been 8 mos and still not SSDI. I am amazed how long this takes. I am thankful for my husband's parents taking us in. I just cannot support the both of us on our income. What do people do when they have to wait this long and have NO income at all. I think many of them are on the sides of the street asking for handouts. No wonder there are so many homeless people in Austin. I am thankful for all that have helped us through GoFundMe. It has been such a blessing. Because of the most recent donations, I have the money to pay for my husband's Cobra insurance for two months. Other times it provided money for groceries or gas.
Bernie and I could have never dreamed in 1979 that we would reunite in 2011 and become husband and wife. We moved to Texas and we began our new lives together. I would have never dreamed that 3 days after celebrating our 3rd year anniversary I would be sitting by his bedside at Round Rock Medical Center after he suffered a major stroke. Our lives were tumbling out of control. A month later he would be jobless and we would loose our home with medical bills climbing and climbing and even to this day more tests, more doctors those bills are still climbing. We would have never dreamed in 1979 this would be what our lives would be like. We would never have dreamed of asking for help. It was a difficult choice. So many people have already helped us yet we still were struggling. We want to thank everyone for your generosity and want you also to share in the blessings. God is healing Bernie, and while our lives are very different we are hopeful. Hopeful for a bright future together. I have a sweet little saying that I share often with Bernie from Winnie the Pooh. It says, "If you live to be 100 I hope to live to be minus one day so I never have to live without you." I love you my Bernie McGee and always will.
