Stage Four Renal Failure COPD, Emphysema, and Pulmonary Fibrosis Level Four Heart Disease 
  
These serious illnesses have left Chuck unable to work, drive, or lead a normal, independent life. He now receives nursing care at home three days a week, along with physical therapy twice a week, just to maintain basic functionality. 

 Financial Situation Despite his lifetime of hard work and achievements, Chuck is now struggling to cover his essential living and medical expenses. Monthly income: $1,704 (Social Security) Monthly living expenses: $2,700 Medical costs: (Ongoing and increasing) Debt: $42,000 in credit cards filed under bankruptcy due to COVID-related business losses and health setbacks Chuck has applied for VA disability benefits, but it could take up to six months for a decision.
