Hello!

I'm Vincent, a Type 1 Diabetic, I'm currently on Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and have been caught within continuous delays and complications set upon me by the American Healthcare System and Paid Leave Oregon. Back in January I decided to take leave to focus on my health, addressing underlying complications from T1D. Due to the fact my medical insurance does not deem T1D a chronic disability, my physicians and I are constantly having to prove my condition and the necessity of my leave. Due to the stop and go nature of this, my pay out from Paid Leave Oregon is taking months to process, since my insurance provider take weeks at a time to decide whether my doctors recommendations are legitimate or not.

The long and short of it:

I currently cannot afford my insulin, Dexcom's, monitoring supplies, and now sadly, rent. I have been informed that despite being on leave for over two months i wont get my paid leave from state for another month or so. My savings have depleted and I am now playing in the worst popularity contest ever, once I get through this current month I will be back to work and can afford my necessities, but right now I need help .

My 2500 dollar goal would pay another three months of Dexcom's (glucose monitoring devices), my current prescriptions of Insulin, my upcoming doctors visits, and my rent. Please help keep me alive for another month, support your local gremlins and foster a thriving biome! I love you!
