Hello friends, acquaintances and strangers. Six months ago today, I suffered a hemorrhagic stroke. The doctor's say I am a miracle as I did not receive medical attention for about 6 hours from the onset. Unfortunately due to having diabetes for most of my life, my physician has advised me not to work for at least one year. I am in the waiting process with my application for disability and have been told this could take at 8 months to get approval. I have managed for 6 months maintain my financial responsibilities, but am now struggling to pay bills, buy my medications and put food on the table. I would very much appreciate any assistance that you would be willing to give towards my needs.
