A good hard working man down on his knees.

Hi my name is Tena. The man in the photo is my husband Steve. In March of this year he had to have surgery on his spine to keep him from being paralyzed. The surgery went well his neck healed well, we were optimistic, but his balance and walking and pain hasn’t gotten better. We have been surviving on my income, which is a forth of what his was. It hurts me to see him hurt so bad, not just physically but mentally. We are going under deeper and deeper. He was just able to get Medicaid, but has not been able to get disability so for. He wants to be working so bad he tries harder and harder each day. Him seeing me doing without my medication hurts him more, I haven’t been able to get on Medicaid yet and my medication cost way too much to pay out of pocket or even at this point with a discount card. We are trying to help ourselves but we just can’t do it on our own. This hurts me so much to even ask, but please we need help. We are just watching the unpaid medical bills just pile up higher and higher. and what just topped it all off is our central unit is on the Frits and we can’t even afford to have someone look at it. Thank you again and if you find it in your heart to help no matter how little, it all adds up .
