Financial help while hospitalized

Donation protected

Oct 14- Feb 8
I was in extreme pain for weeks in the top of my leg.  Emergency room gave me X-rays and said it was my spine. Sent me to a chiropractor. My mother came over taking me to a chiropractor they said it was my spine also. A week later because that Dr didnt help. I was crawling by then. She took me back to emergency room and requested a blood test and they refused to give me one. Saying they had already diagnosed me. That was Glen Rose Hospital. Went home and after a week more 
Being in pain an ambulance was called for me by my grandparents. 
It took me directly  
To Granbury Hospital which in turn took blood tests and put me back in ambulance and immediately took me to Ft Worth.
My diagnosis: I was in  complete "septic shock" severe infection and sepsis. Mortally rate is 25-50 death. 
After my surgery on my leg and knee that night I had 35 staples. Large staph infection caused an abscess that had also moved into my knee that they cleaned out and later surgery on my hip. The staph infection was moving throughout my body and the Doctors all said it was a miracle I was still alive the next day. They didn't have much hope for me. Well
After substantial treatment and no insurance i was released from hospital on Dec 13. The Drs said I was left with osteomyelitis (bone infection) from the staph that I had. I had to take multitudes of antibiotics and blood thinners upon leaving the hospital. 
We tried to get assistance from Medicaid and Social Security SSI but was turned down.they said I could go back to work. 
Well Feb 3 my femur bone completely broke into with me just standing on it. So here I go back in Ambulance to disease hospital in Ft Worth for a
Do over. This time they have put a rod and screws along my broken femur bone. It broke right where my original infection and surgery was before. The osteomyelitis had weaken and made my bones brittle.  
This has been a complete nightmare. My bills have mounted to a point that I would like to ask someone for a little assistance.
