I am in need of financial assistance because I have Systemic Lupus and Severe Osteoarthritis in both knees and mid and lower back. I continue to have repeated falls and injuries. My last fall I had to get seven stitches. Recently I was also diagnosed with severe manic depression disorder and anxiety. I have no friends left and both of my parents are deceased.
I spend most of my days just praying I can sleep for any length of time without waking up multiple times because of chronic pain. My pain continues to get only worse each and every day.
I have sacrificed my eating habits from eating healthy to either no food or cheaper processed foods that are not healthy at all. My health suffering even more because of the sodium.
I am on my third year waiting on disability approval in Florida. I have lost everything. Sold my TV and refrigerator last month.
I am unable to pay for my medications, food, HOA dues, water or electric anymore. I am now four months behind on everything. I am in jeopardy of becoming homeless. I have contacted all local and national authorities and received no help or return calls.
I would appreciate any assistance at all. I have been unable to work for three years because of chronic swelling and pain. I am a thirty year professional speech language pathologist and have always worked hard my entire life. I loved what I did and miss it tremendously.
I hope to pay it forward when I finally get approved for disability. We all need a little help sometimes and a lot of love. I still pray and believe this world can only get better for me. I have definitely seen the worse these past couple of years. I have tried to handle everything myself, but I now realize I desperately need help.
Sincerely,
Teresa
