Help a Nurse and Mom Overcome Post-Surgery Struggles

Hi friends. I hate doing this but here we are! I had hernia surgery on November 22, and have had a few complications along the way (retaining over 1L or urine and having a catheter at home was a particularly fun one).

I'm unable to return to my (heavily overtime) critical care transport nursing job for longer than anticipated, and will have a drastic loss of income.

My part-time teaching job (thank you Master's Degree!) will allow me to return sooner, but it is only 20hr every week - in this economy?! No way.

Here is my sob story - I have two mortgages right now because my old house has not sold yet, which is a massive financial burden. I'm out of PTO next week. Bills, kids, all the normal shit. I'm not special at all, but I'm trying to maybe have someone take pity on me. Any sugar daddy out there who doesn't want sugar? Also why are nurses and teachers so financially burdened? Unfair.

Anything would be helpful. Seriously. I'm scrambling, I'm stressed, and I'm unable to take this much time away.

And please don't tell me it was bad timing, that I should have planned better, that I'm living above my financial means, or that I'm a grifter. Trust me - I'm thinking these negative things about myself already. You holler about timing to a hernia who popped out and could have caused strangulation if not repaired. They don't listen, unlike these sweet kids I have to financially support.
