The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI am sorry, but I have created another GoFundMe to try and help with my current situation.
I really did not want to do this, as I feel like such a slime for even asking for help.
We need some help because bills are piling up and my medical situation is not going to get any better.
Now, I am aware that most of us are not doing well. Which is why I feel so crappy about even asking.
If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. If anyone wants to berate me for even asking, go right ahead. I do not deserve anything, nor can I repay anyone for any of it, since I doubt I will make it to this time next year. But, it will help my husband recover from being connected to me, since I am obviously such poison to every aspect of our society. (I mean, based on the things that have happened to me over my life, that seems to be the only rational conclusion.)
As I have stated before, I am not a salesperson, and I have no desire to be. I know that this is the difference between getting a few dollars, and getting more, but I would rather skin myself with a dull knife than try to be a 'hype-man'. I can only ask for any help that might be out there. If there is none, then so be it. I am about done with this entire fantasy, to be honest. I never asked to be a curse on the planet, and I doubt any relief will be had until it is all over.

I'm going to talk to you like your drunk uncle at a party who has had 8 Jack and Cokes and is slurring his words.
First of all, never be afraid to ask for help. Never. You are not asking for much anyway.
Secondly, you're not a curse, you're not a burden. You are here for a fucking reason, even if you don't know that reason. (hic! Hey, bring me another drink, wouldja?) .
You get my drift?
So get that "curse" shit right out of your head.
I donate to pretty much every DU Go Fund Me anonymously. I can only donate very small amounts, because I'm pretty much fucking broke and live on debt, but I donate, and I donated a small amout to you (donated what I could afford).
Hic!
So you other DUer's, help OldBaldy out. Even if you can only give a few bucks (hic!).
Take it from your old drunk uncle here...NEVER put yourself down. NEVER! Got it? I'm a Christian (albiet a shitty Christian) and I believe God put you here for a reason. No matter what your faith, (or even your absence of any faith at all)...you need to believe that you are here for a reason that you can't see yet.
Hang tough Baldy, and best wishes!!
PS - I don't drink alcohol, but I've been given "the talk" by plenty of drunk uncles, so I can mirror their spiel pretty well.
Seriously...good luck. You're going to be ok.

(52,655 posts)Medical bills will continue to pile. Are there no agencies that can step in to ease it?
I am not a social worker but I hope that someone here can direct you to appropriate sources.
