Dravens_Mommy 22 Posted June 27, 2013 I had my endoscopy/colonoscopy today. The Dr found "red spots" on my stomach lining. Turns out they are precursors to stress induced ulcers. Well duh! I have a 3 year old with autism, a husband who is in constant pain everyday of his life but can't get disability cuz the Dr can't find the cause of the pain, I have both ovaries "full" of very painful cysts, I just lost my job and can't even afford my psych eval. There is literally 50 dollars standing between me and my surgery!! All of this is just piling up on me and makes me feel like I'm suffocating. I'm losing so much sleep and I don't know how much more I can take before they are going to have to put me in the nut house! :'( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm losing so much sleep and I don't know how much more I can take before they are going to have to put me in the nut house! :'([/quote'] Sorry u r going through this. I was in the simular boat as far as stress of the financial part. I was $1100.00 short. I prayed and prayed and finally got my prayer answered 4 days before my scheduled surgery. I was to the point of losing about 1/3ofy hair!!! You need to concentrate on you ans try to relax. If you are only short $50.00, maybe you could make special arrangements with the doctors office. I will personal message you with some othe ideas that may help. Stay strong, pray & have faith sister! {{{Hugs}}} BTW, iam 3 days post-op & had no complications. Easiest surgery I've ever had. I've had a c-section in 2007 & a breast reduction in 2000. You got this!!! 1 miss_cee85 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassygirl06 962 Posted June 27, 2013 It will happen for you when it is meant to be. This is hard to hear, but I truly believe there is a reason for everything. Keep your head up, because when it is supposed to happen things will line up. I will pray for you and your whole family. I am truly sorry that everything is so overwhelming right now. Try to see the silver lining...stay positive! 3 SheWins1, TES and hopeliveshere reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LI Gemini NY 607 Posted June 29, 2013 You people are awesome, I'm so glad people are willing to help her out. I donated via PayPal, it was very simple. I know more people can sacrifice a cup of Starbucks or pack of cigs to help someone live a healthy life. Come on folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dravens_Mommy 22 Posted June 29, 2013 Through the generosity of some truly people, I will be able to have psych exam and move forward with my surgery!! I feel truly blessed!! That's a very heavy weight off of my shoulders (no pun intended). 2 Firëfly and dicoyte reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firëfly 39 Posted June 29, 2013 Just seeing this post and hope your journey gets easier for you now. That's a lot to deal with but it will be easier once you get your surgery and get more healthy yourself. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
