Hello as most of you know, our child was born with a genetic intestinal disease. She was hospitalized from a week old until she was four months old. During that time I was on maternity leave, and my maternity leave ended last week. Due to her medical condition I will not be able to go back to work . While I was on maternity leave I was on PFMLA but this is only a percentage of your pay and it doesn’t cover the cost of health insurance as well as other bills that continue to come in. Being in the hospital drained all of our savings and left us no money to pay for the insurance and we are just getting by with rent. I gave my notice to work last week, but in order for my husband to pick up insurance, we need to pay the back insurance, and we have no way to do that with only one income. I don’t like doing things like this, but I don’t know what else to do. I’m asking for help for my family. We need the health insurance for Christiana. She has doctors appointments, weekly and monthly, and I travel back-and-forth to Boston every week. Please find it in your heart to donate, any amount helps.
