So, on top of all the other health “adventures” I’ve been having recently, which I’ve mostly been managing (“whaddya mean I might have cancer?!” That was today’s doctor visit), there’re these two smaller, but financially unmanageable-to-me things:
And I’ve found out that at the end of this month (it could be sooner if I had the money, but alas, and I might have to reschedule if I can’t swing this) I also need seven fillings in my teeth (which I cannot afford), mostly to replace that one dentist’s substandard work that has once again fallen out. He did a lot of fillings, and they tend to fall out in bunches. That’ll be about $515.
And my glasses prescription has changed though that I definitely need new glasses (which I also cannot afford). That’s $130. And I need more eye medicine, which is another $25. All added together and rounding up to try to account for any fees, that’s about $700.
My days are just filled with appts right now. I keep looking for jobs, but even if I got any interest when would I have the time? All the appts are a full time job! And disability and health insurance don’t pay for teeth or vision. I pay out of pocket for some limited dental and vision insurance, but it’s still not enough.
Wanna help a human stay alive and somewhat functional? *sad eyes*
Any extra will go to food or meds or other supplies I need like laundry detergent and soap and Tums and Tylenol.
