aaaah yeah, I haven’t made posts about it here as much because it’s been a big ol’ bummer, but the pain in kurt’s side came back AND now he has a constant, painful pressure on his chest that sent him to the ER about a month ago. He had a test monday that said he had a blockage/obstruction in his intestines that’s pushing food back up into his stomach. He has more tests next week but we got the bill for his ER visit that’s costing him $4,000. He’s running out of funds for this so fast he won’t have enough money for more tests or whatever it takes to deal with what’s wrong with him.
We tried to get him healthcare coverage, but here’s a great thing about my country’s healthcare for immigrants. He legally can’t get healthcare until he’s had his greencard for five years; he’s had it for two. We’re applying for SOME sort of help but it’s looking more like I’ll have to go get a job to help cover bills soon. So, not only is his health getting worse, but we’re going to be unable to pay for the tests and whatnot, yaaaaay 8)
It’s bleak but it hasn’t broken us yet. If I have to I’ll eagerly take up a job to cover things, I’m able bodied (for now) to get a crappy job to cover what needs to be covered. Commissions and my situation has kept me being able to do a lot of personal stuff, on my days off I either sleep or doodle current obsessions to help keep me sane. I do have a handful of asks started and being worked on but they’re slow when I only take a couple days off a week.
