Over the past 18 months, my life has been turned upside down by a series of serious health issues. I’ve undergone six surgeries, including a total right hip replacement and bilateral inguinal hernia repair. Because of these medical challenges, I’ve been unable to work at my job in a small-town manufacturing company that makes parts for businesses around the world. The loss of income has made it nearly impossible to keep up with basic living expenses like food, utilities, and my house payment. I’m now months behind on my mortgage, and my utility bills are all past due as of this month. On top of that, I’m facing major medical debt that continues to grow.

 I’ve applied for disability through my work and have started the process for SSDI, but the wait has been long and uncertain. My wife passed away from cancer four years ago, and we have no children. My parents are both retired and do what they can to help, but they are on fixed incomes themselves. I’m doing everything I can to bridge the gap until I can get back on my feet, but right now, I need help to keep my home and cover the essentials.

 Being able to stay in my home and have some relief from the constant stress would mean the world to me. I’m hopeful that with support, I can get through this difficult period, focus on my recovery, and eventually return to work. Any help would make a real difference in my life right now, and I am deeply grateful for your kindness and support.
