Life is easy to take for granted. I am not writting about a major or life altering event, I am writing about those sudden illnesses that just pop out of nowhere and have the ability to throw off our routines, and our budgets.
Depending on where you work, a sudden illlnes can be catastrophic. Millions of Americans have little to no benefits available at work. How can we overcome these hurdles that life sets up for us? As I sit here watching over my loved one sleep on his ICU bed I do wonder, how much will this affect our income and our bills not only next month but possibly the next five months? We are at the end of July and holidays are around the corner. Its not hard to determine what is important, such as bills over holiday shopping so I won’t cry over that. Our situation could be a lot worse I am sure, compared to others we are doing ok. But I cant help to wonder the frustration and desperation many others feel when slapped with these life hurdles. How can we reach our goals when we have so little an alternative when it comes to medical bills, missed work and in extreme cases; losing a job?
I truly feel perplexed at the struggle that millions face when an illness suddenly crashes into their lives. I can only image the dire need of help and support those faced with a chronic illness or possible death (if not treated) in need of healthcare face.
Positive vibes arent enough to make things better but if you are going through this, I hope you find a way and help for your needs. I pray things work out, I pray for your sanity.
