UPDATE #1

9 MINS AGO

I have not been able to work since January, 2013. I worked as a NICU Nurse/Charge Nurse at Primary Childrens Hospital and I loved so much. Being a NICU nurse was my calling in life. I was put on disability because my migraines had changed from episodic, to where I would get 3-4 a month to getting intractable chronic migraines in a matter of days. Originally, I thought I would be able to return to work within a couple of weeks, I had no clue that 20 months later, I would still be out of work. I still have daily migraines, but they are not my biggest challenge. I am fighting so many challenges as my body and my "health" continues to baffle every single doctor I have seen. I keep fighting, but it is hard. I am deeply grieving me. I am grieving the, "Amber", I used to be. I hate that I have lost so much of my independence. I stay positive and keep fighting and searching for answers, but I need help. Please help my family and I. I will "pay it forward" when I am able, I give you my word.

It is time that I asked for help and stopped trying to do it all, because reality has hit me, and I know that I can't. When I have to choose between paying a medical bill or putting food on the table, of course I am going to make sure my family is provided for. I don't want to be the cause of all the misfortunes.

My family got in a car accident earlier this summer, and then my daughter's dog died, unexpectedly. So, all of our "emergency" fund has been depleted...

Thank you, in advance, for your help.
