Help Rosa Recover After Workplace Injury

Employer Paid No Lost Wages — Just Medical Bills

Hi, my name is Rosa, and I’m reaching out because I’ve come to the end of what I can do alone.

In October, I suffered a workplace injury that left me physically limited and financially strained. Although my employer covered medical bills, they did not pay any lost wages. I was also denied unemployment due to the way North Carolina labor laws are structured — something many people don’t realize until it happens to them.

I’ve tried to stay strong. I’ve done everything I can to stretch every dollar, but after months of recovery without income, I’m now running on fumes.
