financial assistance to catch up on bills, medicine for husband, general everyday living expenses"
Hello my name is Sherrie,I have 2 daughters ages 3&5 and my husband is in really bad shape,he had to have an ACDF fusion in his neck and since the surgery he has declined in health so badly.I have to help him out of bed most mornings and if he needs to use the restroom in the middle of the night I definately have to help him then.I don't work because I am scared of leaving him home alone with our youngest in case something happens.We have had numberous MRI's done and they say there is nothing wrong with him.I say they are crazy because this man went from working 55-70hrs. a week at a job he had held for 21yrs. yes that's 21years.We applied for ss disability and he was denided they said he could do some kind of job.There is no way he can't sit,stand,or lie down long at all because he goes numb all over.We do get food stamps and that is a plus but paying our bills and buying househould necessities that is a joke.We have no money for anything.I thank God for my father because he has helped us so much but there is only so much he can do because he is VA disabled and on social security.I just want to know why we pay taxes so much and when you get down they just kick you a little harder?I cannot find anyone that will help me with anything but electric and water but I need a phone in case something happens to my husband and his parents are 79&82 and if there is problem with them we need to be able to get ahold of.I Just think that the whole system stinks for people that need help that has worked there whole life.Thank you for letting me vent my frustrations,because I hold so much in so my children don't have to hear that mommy&daddy are having such a hard time.Sincerely a mother that truly undewrstands what each of you are going through.Sherrie, Somerset,KY
