#permanent disability

Well, here I am again. Doing exactly what I hoped I would never have to do again. I'm not in any current danger of losing my home. I was able to sort that out at the end of last year. However, I am now unable to work. I have a cyst on my spine causing me a great deal of sciatic pain from my lower back to my toes in my left foot. There are days I can't even walk unassisted. The cyst is not removable, therefore I will likely be like this for the rest of my life.

My partner works full time, but unfortunately it's just not enough. We have a plan to earn extra money, but it's going to take a few months to get it off the ground. So, here I am, begging my followers, my mutuals, my friends, to help me. Anything you can send to help us get through the next few months would be greatly appreciated. Even just a share of this post to help spread the word would be very much appreciated and I would be forever grateful. Thank you in advance.

Just please, try not to judge me too harshly. You could be in my situation someday, through no fault of your own. We are all much, much closer to being homeless than to being a millionaire (let alone a billionaire.) Have some compassion instead of judgment.

“y’know, it’s not so bad. sometime’s blue’ll let me nyoom through walmart. its always great to pass by people that all have that horrified look on their faces. then security gets called and they come up and the slow realization that i have no leg to stand on is pretty great.”
