Now , sometimes , when I get up from the on-the-floor mat in the shelter I'm in at night , I've being known to fall down , when trying to get going with my (only pair of ~ all I have left) sandals on , sometimes trip whentrying to walk on the mat and even fall on other people ! :(
If I could just get that operation...AND a decent recovery<CRY>...

I feel for you. I fall down a lot too, way more than I used to. I don't understand why it is getting worse. What is the operation you mentioned?

If I ruled the world, you would have gotten that operation a long time ago. It's a drag that the doctors won't bend their rules in order for you to get the operation. It seems that they care more about their wages than they do about people. I hope that you can find some way to get the operation soon.

I saw a man who was very bad off while I was doing Salvation Army kettles, who's leg was all purple and he was wearing sandals that needed to be held together by string. I was thinking in my mind, "Seriously doctors? Come on!" and where is that man's family when he needs them the most?

How much does the operation cost?

How did you became homeless?

Any big debts?

Do you have a IBAN / bank account number? If so, can you PM it to me?
Maybe an odd question to ask to a homeless one... but i wish i could send you some money somehow from europe. It's probaly not much.. but the tiny bits always help.

for some people, their family is more dangerous than helpful
