Help to pay rent due to our medical issues

Donation protected
OK. Here we go again. I'm sorry if this looks like I am just trying to dig for gold here, but we need help again.

About 6 months ago, I started having a pain in my right elbow that was really strange. It felt like my elbow was catching inside and made it so that I couldn't touch my right shoulder with my right hand. It lasted for about 2 weeks, then it stopped happening, so I just brushed it off. A couple of months later, it came back again, but then went away after a few days.

Fast forward to 4 days before Brooksanne was scheduled to be released from her rehab facility. I tried to pick up something heavy with both arms. I felt an excruciating pain in my right elbow. The next day, I could not even bend my elbow at all without screaming my head off. I went to the ER, and they set me up to see an orthopedic doctor. He scheduled me to have a CT on it. The day after, I got a call from his nurse telling me that I needed to set up an appointment to see an orthopedic surgeon ASAP. He said that I had a bone spur that actually broke off and was floating around in the area in the middle of my elbow area. I now have to have arthroscopic surgery on the 31st to remove it. This will cause Brooksanne to have to stay in her facility for at least a couple more months, since I won't be able to take care of her at home with only one arm. This means she will have to be upgraded to a long-term patient since she is there for more than 3 months. Due to this, her disability payments will start going to the facility, instead of her. There is also a chance that since she was still getting her payments while she was a short-term patient, she owes the facility for that time. That means she may not be receiving payments for three months after she is released. She uses these payments to pay our rent. My payments cover our bills, food, etc. Without her payments, our rent will not get paid. We are in dire need of money to be able to survive. I just thought I would take the chance and see if anyone could help us out.
