DAN and MARYBETH'S FINANCIAL STRUGGLES
Donation protected
So Many have asked if We had a Gofundmepage, so they could contribute to Our Overwhelming Crazy life?!!!
We have been through so much in the last 2 months.
Dan went to the ER on August 6th in horrific pain, still thinking it was a pulled muscle related to a disc due to All the tires he moves at his job. Only to find out after 2 CT Scans and an MRI later...that it really Wasn't that AT all?? They discovered an infection in his Spine Between his T4 and T5 discs...called discitis...Thankfully it had Not gotten to the bone...they told him if he had waited any longer he could have been paralized!!!
He was transferred to another Hospital by ambulance, where they had a lager staff, so they could care for him better.
After being in the hospital for a week, he came home with a picc line where antibiotics have to be given daily by me his " NURSE" MaryBeth.... for the next 6 weeks. I'm Trying to keep Dan as comfortable as possible he cannot be Hot or SWEATY with his picc line and has lifting restrictions until the meds are done! I'm continuing to work FULL time, while trying to earn Extra Money with instacart and trying to make sure we can keep the household running, but it's been The Biggest Challenge of Our Relationship for Sure, Dan has Not been paid from his short term disability since July...it's finally been approved but we are SO FAR BEHIND ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING "BILL" RELATED...THEN ON Friday August 30th The Air in Our House went out....it's been very hot...We had to go to a motel on Sat....As it Was Not Safe for Dan to be in those conditions with his picc line...so we had to use the last of Our funds just to keep a roof over our head, and have food to Eat. Today we left the hotel because We are totally out of Money!! Dan's cousins Have been Nice enough to take us in for a while until we can figure out a plan for the HVAC system... We ordered the parts, but they are on Back order and won't be here until the middle of Sept...maybe later??
So We are living One Day at a Time...doing the Best We Can
We are Greatful for All the Prayers, LOVE and Support of Everyone we know, and Even the people we Don't
The Medical bills are Also just rolling in...and it's an Overwhelming thought to Even consider any of them at this time!!!
If you feel lead to Help out...We are Greatful beyond Words...if you Are Unable to contribute We understand and ask for your Prayers!!!
God Bless you All !!
