Joy Haas hasn't added a story.
Hello all. My name is Joy and I am an Occupational Therapist that works with children with autism with severe behavioral problems. I have been severely ill for the last 3 years and almost passed away in Febuary of this year. I am seeking assistance to pay for my enormous medical bills that I have accumulated this year. the conditions I am struggling with include: mycotoxin poisoning from mold, type 1 diabetes, gastroparesis, IBS, Colistrodim difficile (c. Diff), neurological damage, nerve damage, movement disorder, and insomnia. I had my appendix and gallbladder removed both within this last month. It has been almost a year that I have been able to be a functional 32 year old individual. I lost my job Aug 17,12 due to my health and have been dependent on my Dad to live ever since. He is my silent hero- the person I strive to be. We cannot pay my medical bills and I currently owe over $6,000 in medical expenses. This is with insurance!! I am on a very strict diet including gluten free, sugar free, preservative free (and so on) foods to help my body heal from the poisons I was tasking in through air, my skin, my food, and clothing. I now live with my parents as I require 24 hour care.
I will get better. I have too much to live for. I have 4 nephews that I love more than life and they keep me breathing daily. My Dad is my everything. I have a boyfriend that I love, a brother, sister, and Mom im lucky to have. My Mom was hit by a semi Dec 10, 10 and she is still with us. We are all blessed to still be here.
Please assist however possible. I will be sure to give back when I am able. It is devistating to ask for help, but I am in great need. Thank you for your time and best wishes to all.
