Can't speak so can't apply for bill help

Hi. I have been recommended by a fellow employee of mine with Peoria Journal Star who is also a member of the Peoria County Broad. He suggested that I contact your organization for financial assistance with my utility bills and/or any other miscellaneous information that you may be able to provide me with. On December 16 2016 @ OSF I had a Total Laryngectomy, Stoma created, and Lymphnode Removal In My Neck. During a test to check my swallowing ability I fainted and in the fall broke my last 2 metatarsals (toes). At this time I no longer have the ability to communicate orally.
Eventually I will have a prosthesis added to my stomach site that will enable me to verbally communicate to a low degree pending the totality of healing in my throat. I have a very long road ahead of me but I look at in a very positive way and that I will make my goal. Time frame that I'm looking at is anywhere from six months to year and half as per my Doctor with Peoria Ear Nose & Throat Group. He is an Excellent doctor and Group. Nothing but praise for this organization.
Any and all assistance and information would be greatly appreciated. Please remember I am fully unable to speak so preferred method of correspondence is via email.
If You Would Please take me into consideration for any and or all programs that may be available to me if any.
Thank You for your cooperation and assistance in handling this matter.
