Jammie Seeks Disability Grant To Pay Outrageous Medical Expenses
by Jammie Jackson
(USA)
My name is Jammie and I am seeking a government disability grant for many reasons.
Over the past two years my health has had a downfall. I was first diagnosed with a disease called ANCA-positive vasculitis, a disease in which only two in a million people get.
This disease nearly killed me because while I was at Henry County Medical Center in Paris, Tennessee it caused my lungs and kidneys to fill with blood.
I then had to be rushed by ambulance to the bigger St. Thomas Hospital in Nashville, where I had to have two blood transfusions.
After a year of chemotherapy and steroids I was kicked off my medical insurance and couldn't get my medicine anymore, even though I am supposed to take the steroids for the rest of my life.
My next reason is my hernia. I have an umbilical hernia, which was caused by it not being closed right when I was born.
Because of this, and my back problems, I am not supposed to lift anything over 20 pounds, or else it will rupture and I will have to have surgery.
My medical bills are outrageous and I cannot find a job anywhere, because of my medical problems.
I know that there are more unfortunate people than me that need a grant more than I do but if I could get any amount I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
