For reference here is what my back looks like:
I have had 6 reconstructive lower back surgeries as well as a spinal cord stimulator put in at the end of last year. I have been disabled and living with intense chronic pain for 14 1/2 years. I am unable to work because I cannot stand longer than 5mins even with my mobility aids. I am on round the clock medications as well as ice to deal with the swelling of my sacroiliac sack which was damaged in one of my surgeries. I am currently bedridden, though the recent change in my medications after this hospital visit has allowed me to have a little bit more mobility, even it it has meant moving around my home better.
I am hoping that I will be seeing two new doctors soon to try new treatments, but I won't be able to take on that expense until I have this hospital bill paid off. I am going to contact the hospital and see if they can drop my overall bill down due to my economic class but that full bill is still almost $20,000, so regardless, I will still need help even if they approve. I know that everyone is hurting financially right now but even if you could lend me a couple dollars it would add up! Thank you for your kindness and I hope that you have a wonderful July🫶🏽
