Hey y'all, I raised a little bit of money (don't worry, I'm not going to ask you for money) for medical help, but, not enough. I feel like a ping pong ball, because I keep getting bounced around and no one is giving me a straight answer.
Please, continue to keep me in your prayers.

Hey y'all, so, I need a CT scan, and probably surgery (I went to the doctor today). I don't really have a way to pay for it (I MIGHT be able to pay for the CT scan). I am not (nor would I) asking for money, but, I am asking for your prayers so I can get help with money.

Hey y'all, I got a call back from the indigent care people. They think my doctor was the name of the office where I SEE my doctor (I never said that). It's annoying, but it's something, and it's a start.

For reasons beyond me, the hospital sent me a letter that said my case is closed.
In spite of never having been seen by the hospital. It's a vicious circle, y'all.
I appreciate the prayers.

I’m really sorry to hear about your foot. I know it must be tough for you, and I hope you heal soon. I’ll keep you in my prayers, asking God to give you strength and help your foot get better quickly. Stay strong, and take good care of yourself during this time.

Thank you very much. I'm having trouble getting help. A hospital closed my case without ever seeing me. Admitted they were wrong, and I've heard nothing else from them. I tried to go through voc rehab, but my autism spectrum diagnosis is too old (never mind the fact it doesn't go away...), and my podiatrist was too vague. The injury doesn't show up on x rays, and I don't have money for a CT scan.
I've been going bald for years, but, honestly, I think it's going a little faster right now.
Oh well, at least it's not me pulling my hair, though I want to.
Anyway, thank you for your prayers.

Hey y'all! So, an update 1) I have to go the bank Monday, to fix my bank account, my debit card expired and I did not know that. 2) I now have health insurance, but it won't pay for the surgery. That said, I SHOULD be able to get a CT scan, which can help me get a desk job in the meantime. 3) I don't think I ever mentioned this, but, I do have forms I need to send to the state of South Carolina for disability, and, 4) HOPEFULLY finally get my surgery.
Y'alls prayers have helped more than I can even say. Even if I don't always feel it.
