Overwhelmed

I'm embarassed to say, but I had a meltdown yesterday before my shift at work.  The fact is that we are now facing being 10,000 in debt not to mention the $260 we will need to have every 3 months to keep up with the pump supplies.  I managed to have a headache for 24 hours (Monday into Tuesday), pretty much due to the stress of this bigger financial burden.  In an act of desperation I started a gofundme fundraiser.  I did so after alot of thought.  Truth be told I really wanted to do it 8 months ago when the bills started rolling in, but me being me I thought it was selfish to do it for myself.

But I cracked and have been overwhelmed by the response I have gotten.  A former co-worker of mine donated right away.  Many of my Borders family started reposting my original post, my old friends from scouts as well.   The support from you all is amazing, and I hope you know that.  I am still researching some funding, and if we qualify for the financial aid (and we should) it will drop the price about $1100. 

I think I need to add that all these numbers are basically 50% of the total bills (the other 50% was covered by our medical insurance).  I was planning on using our tax refund to offset what we owed to the hospital (s), ambulance company, drs etc, but now I need to use it for the down payment of our pump.


I just want to thank you all, for what ever you have done for me, whether it be a prayer, positive thought, a share, or just a "hang in there."  The support means so much to me.  I am so very very blessed.
