I’m writing this to describe my current situation and hopefully share as clearly and concisely as to what I have gone through and am going through currently. I am going to mention my other health issues further in but I thought it pertinent to mention my end stage liver disease first as my other health issues followed that diagnosis. A lot of the struggles I will mention further in this personal heath history I have written are mainly due to my liver disease. I have been told I have less than a year to live and that I need an entire liver transplant. I suffered a minor stroke and that was followed by a major stroke a few years later. Since the second stroke, I have been left with many deficits. I have a constant tremor and numbness on my left side and have a terrible time trying to perform any activities of daily living. My mornings are met with an enormous struggle to even do the simplest things that we don’t even think about and take for granted. Getting dressed, regular daily hygiene, going to the bathroom, cooking, cleaning house, moving about at home or outside of the home and carrying or lifting things are impossible. I depend so much on assistance daily just to live. Aside from these issues, I’m also very weak and haven’t got the energy to do anything. I don’t sleep well and I’m always tired and usually have a headache 3 to 4 times a week. Because of my weakness and numbness I am unsteady on my feet and have suffered several falls. I am dizzy when I get up from sitting or laying down. My current state of health is so poor and I get feeing hopeless and my depression currently is very very bad. My weight has dropped dramatically and I have no appetite and when I do manage to eat something I feel nauseous and more often than not I end up throwing up some or all of what I did swallow. While my depression has gotten worse my anxiety has also gotten a lot worse and my PTSD must be at an all-record high. I’m always nervous and feel scared and stressed out 100% of my day. I’m asking you please this is going to be my second chance in life I have three kids and would like to spend more time with them if. I’ve been taken off the list and also told by doctors they are not going to put me on the list because it’s too late for me. I’ve went four years mot really knowing what tomorrow brings or if there will be one. I want to be around, so please help Any help Anything you could do would be appreciated. As of last November, I was told I probably only have a year left to live.  Thank you for your time and for your patience reading this please it’s regarding my life I’ve done everything I’ve been asked to do I need a new Liver and help with bills. I once heard a quote that said don’t give up , don’t ever give up . I’m not giving up I am reaching out. Gary Stevenot
