I never ask for anything, But, Now, Here I am. UPDATE

UPDATE: I just found out I need yet another surgery and more time off work. Its getting scary. FMLA is all used up, and Im not sure how much longer insurance is going to hold on. Im at a point where Im really going to need some help! If you can help it would be tremendously appreciated. Even you could just share this so as many see it as possible.

So. Anyone who knows me knows I NEVER EVER ask anyone for anything let alone any kind of help. Im always the one going above and beyond to help everyone else. It has been at the suggestion of a few friends that I decided to try this. And I have been thinking hard about it all day. It just isnt who I am. BUT, I have been out of work for just over 3 months now from a medical issue. I got an infection and wound up having part of my left foot removed. As it was almost completely recovered I was put in a boot and was told it was ok to start walking on it like normal. Well I ended up getting a big blister from it, and now were starting the healing/recovery process all over again. My doctor said this can be pretty common as when one part of your foot is removed other parts tend to push it in the opposite direction, causing pressure and friction. So we have to wait for it to heal, then I will have to be fitted with a brace to hold it in the correct position. And if that doesnt work, the next step would be to fuse the ankle.

And during all of this, it was discovered I am a type 2 diabetic. Life changing. I dont eat any junk any more, and so far by the will of God, my diabetes is staying in control with diet and medication. But I have lost 45 pounds, which probably is a good thing.

My work has provided assistance, they have truly been wonderful. And I was on short term disability but that has run out along with FMLA. Waiting to see if I will need to go on Long Term Disability.

But through this all, as you can imagine funds are running very short. Medical bills are piling up, other bills are piling up. And things that need taken care of have been shoved to the back burner and neglected. Like I said I am always the one helping others and never ask for help my self. But before things get really bad I thought I'd give this a shot and see if maybe I could get a little help staying afloat. I would be forever thankful and grateful, and would appreciate it much much more than you could possibly know.
