Hello I am Shemica and I’m 35 year old, I suffer from mental illnesses. The month of July I had a mental breakdown where I had a suicide attempt. I was taken off work the whole month of July. On July 29th I had a biopsy done. Two weeks later at my follow up appointment I was told they found cancer cells. I was referred to TriStar Centennial Hospital in Nashville where I had a full hysterectomy on September 10th I was admitted due to some complications. A surgery that was supposed to have been 1 hour and 30 minutes took 5 hours. I’ve been battling mental and health issues since I was 15. My job fired me on Friday a few days before my surgery. I was wrongfully terminated and I am trying to fight it. I normally not the one to ask for help but this time I am needing help. Anything would be greatly appreciated. I’m at a loss and I don’t know what to do. I was living paycheck to paycheck so I have no funds coming in at all. I need my meds for my mental health and my meds that were prescribed to me from my surgery. My cat Coco needs food as well. It hurts me that I even have to do this. But this is my last hope. If you can’t help it doesn’t cost to share this. Thank you.
