Hello, my name is Sydney Bluestein. On August 27th, 2023, I suffered a random stroke. I was unable to get to the ER in the 4-hour window to get a blood clotting shot. I did not have any prior medical issues until this stroke, leaving my right side paralyzed and weakened.
I had to move back to NJ with my mom after living in Las Vegas for a year. I had to leave my job, sell my car, and lose everything. If not for my mother, I'd be homeless.
My emotional and physical brain state is altered. I suffer from PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood swings, and impulse control. I'm a lot slower now and less dexterous — my short-term memory is bad and I'm forgetful.
I am currently on food stamps and unable to get GA. I am currently waiting for DVRS to admit me into their job rehabilitation and placement program. I need money to pay for bills until then.
It was discovered that my stepfather recently owes the IRS $20,000. My recently retired mother has to pay what he has to pay, i.e., cable and electric bills. I am taking on the responsibility of food, household supplies, and my own personal bills (phone, medical, glasses, etc.).
I hate asking for money. I'm currently $2,500 in credit debt. I need some help to tide me over.
