So, I really don’t want to still be doing this, because it is humiliating. But I am still extremely poor and living well below the poverty line.
For those of you that don’t know, I was the victim of a hit and run by a drunk driver four and a half years ago, and he left me for dead. It was five hours before I was found. I damaged my vocal chords screaming for help.
Since then, I have had eleven surgeries on my leg, and four on my arm. He hit my right side and both limbs were severed within a centimetre (half an inch.) I have kept both limbs, but am currently trying to convince my orthopedic surgeon to amputate my leg because I am 29 and I have osteoporosis and complex regional pain syndrome.
Among other things, I have a neurogenic bladder (so My bladder leaks and I piss myself constantly,) brain damage that has basically laid waste to my ability to attend university, control my hands, or remember anything or look after myself. I have nerve damage that plagued me daily and I cannot lie down without burning pain in my feet and the feeling of electric eels in my lower back.
My jaw has been misaligned and my dentist is saying I need a full facial reconstruction (where they drill down every single one of my teeth and replace them with crowns) because of all the micro fractures from the impact.
I have PTSD and major depressive disorder and BPD and I am autistic.
Hashtag long post, but my entire world is falling apart and so is my body. And I keep having to travel to the mainland from the island I live on for appointments set by the drunk dirtbag who hit me that his lawyers set up. Regardless that (as any disabled person will tell you) travel is fucking exhausting and takes a toll on my health.
Anyway, I am so sorry to keep begging and this blog is meant for social issues but I am just so fucked I need to beg.
My paypal is here, please pleas donate if you can, please please boost if you can.
