I'm disabled w/constant chronic pain from degenerative (entire) spine disease. I also have clinical depression, severe I.B.S., asthma, arthritis, anxiety & panic attacks, G.E.R.D., a damaged bladder & migraine headaches. I live in Cecil County, MD. My husband & I are REALLY struggling financially. Though he works a f/t job & takes care of me, we are REALLY STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY. He makes a little too much money for us to humbly qualify for any kind of assistance, as no organization takes into consideration all the medical costs. We've always lived very frugally, don't buy what we want ~ just what we need, haven't had a vacation since our honeymoon 11 yrs. ago, we don't go anywhere or do anything because everything costs money, including the hobbies we used to have, like fishing, movies & the beach. Our very modest home is falling in disrepair w/o funds to fix things back up. We have been praying for, meditating for & and helping others for yrs.; however, this time WE need the help. I can no longer afford many of my medicines, dr. visits & heath testing necessary, due to the costs of co-pays.
Though our mortgage & utilities manage to get paid, we haven't had enough money for food, household supplies & clothing. I know there are many, many people who are FAR worse off than we are, so I'm ashamed to even ask for help; it seems so selfish. But I've fallen into such a deep depression & the financial stress has put such a strain on our marriage, that I am really scared. Please pray for us.
