I’m as okay as can be, but the bills are mounting up and I still have multiple outpatient appointments (dialysis three times weekly, wound care twice weekly, plus further appointments and tests). As I cannot walk, I require medical transport which I’m paying for out of pocket and, frankly, costs me more than my rent.
