Heart Transplant Journey: Family in Need

Donation protected
I had a heart attack on June 15, 2004, and was in the hospital for 7 days. On life support for 4 days. Then I had to travel 138 miles for treatment for one year, then it was every 2 weeks for 2 years. Then every 3 months, then every 6 months, and now every 2 years. Now, 16 years later, twice a year. After the heart attack, I had a full transplant on September 10, 2008, and was in the hospital for 9 days, on life support for 5 days. 3 life flights not paid by insurance at that time. Along story short because I am no writer at all. I am at about 60%? Now can’t work a job. I am 67 now, going on 17 years with the transplant. I now have diabetes, prostate cancer, skin cancer, depression, severe arthritis, and take around 30 pills a day.
Worked 40.5 years with insurance, had a 401k but it was spent mostly on medical. My wife has been sick the last 4 years. We are behind on several bills. Sold some stuff but just can’t come out. $800.00 house payment with several other bills. Pray to God every night to give me hope for change. There is a lot more than I could write. I pray for some help so we can have a home and something to eat. I also have a deaf son at home. I am a man that it hurts that  I can’t take care of my family. I would appreciate any gesture at all. Middle Tennessee. Thanks please share with others.
