Thank you for caring. The pain has not lessened, but we all have burdens to bear. My city welcomed 14,000 Katrina victims. The charities have no resources left. We have many hospitals, all require huge deposits before admission which I cannot afford. The charity hospital requires $200. My doctor has donated his services if a hospital will just open its doors, but so far none will. My husband with a bachelor's degree has lost his job to the influx of cheaper labor. He is now working a minimum wage job to support our family of four. The money cannot stretch to meet utilities, much less prescriptions. Advil can be purchased 400 for $4 at Sam's Club. Hopefully my husband gets a better job & insurance before the Advil does too much damage. I've managed to get about4 hours of sleep over the last two days. That's a start.
