This is really hard for me to do but I know I need to share what is going on. So, taking a deep breath and preparing to type.
It is somewhat ironic that this would happen just when I have found that I really want to live. After such a long depression, it seems so strange. I feel I need to just say now that I am not terminal or anything. We, my doctor really, has been monitoring this growth since January this year. She called me when she got the results in from the last biopsy. I need to have it removed as soon as possible. The problem I am faced with is that I can not make payments, the amount for the procedure must be paid in full. I do not have health coverage. I have applied for medicaid. I was approved but told that I will not be able to get coverage until November. This cannot wait that long. I feel a lot of conflicting emotions about the whole thing. I really must ask for help though.
I set up a GoFundMe campaign last night. Anything you can give is greatly appreciated. If you can not make a donation, please share my link. Every little bit helps.
Other than this health stuff, and financial struggle, everything has been really good. I have been spending more time with family and friends. I have a boyfriend who truly cares for me. I feel lucky to have felt the ways I do when I am surrounded by such loving people. I am fortunate in that my doctor found this growth so soon. I have heard so many horrible stories involving cancer. I just need to get it taken care of as soon as possible.
Thank you for reading my blog here and for being so supportive. It is hard for me to share this and to ask for help.
