Hello, I have never in my life ever asked any one for help, in fact I have always been the one helping others. I am at my wits end now I am afraid. The last 4 years my husband and I have been a care giver first to my Father, then to my husband's Mother during both of their terminal illnesses. We used our life's saving during that time to keep up and both of us gave up good jobs to do so. My husband has a new job and struggles hard to keep a steady income to pay our finances, but afraid we can't even keep up with the basic bills lately. We are down to one car and I am most days in such pain from severe arthritis, that it is impossible for me to go back to work. We have no medical coverage so neither of us ever goes to a doctor even when we should as we could never afford it. My husband continues to apply for job within his field as Industry Field Manager, but continues to be rejected because of his age.
How do I get any help before things proceed worse than they are and we lose our home? We can't apply for any loans as we do not have any resources to ever pay them back. I can't apply for a disability to Social Security as they want loads of Medical Documentation that we can not afford..it's a catch 22..have to go to Specialists and have them declaire that the arthritis is as bad as it is, but if could afford that wouldn't be asking for help...I just don't know where to turn and so scared we going to lose everything.
Thank you kindly for taking time to listen to me ..Dove
