Talk to the disability advocate about the rent and utility help you need since your husband is not working

Hi Belzori
While we are not sure about places paying HOA fees (we think that will be rare), look into mortgage assistance programs. This includes HUJD agencies. They may be able to refer you to a place for help with those costs, and find help with a mortgage info. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... tgage.html

Hi my name is Belzori, I am seeking assistance with HOA fees and other bills. I was ok, my daughter has been assisting me since my illness of a blood clot. But then she became affect with COVID. Now she is no longer able to assist me and we are in a terrible hardship.
I am a registered nurse by profession, but woke up one morning in 2019 and I could hardly walk due to the blood clot of being on my feet all days. I am fully disabled and have not been able to return to work because of this disorder. I need help. Please help me.

I'm writing to you out of desperation. I am 37 years old, married without children, and until 4/16/20 working full time as a travel/ER/trauma nurse. I had no financial problems, and always lived beneath my means. On April 3, 2020, I was diagnosed with ischemic colitis which was thought to be related to an unknown blood clotting disorder.

Hardship from blood clotting disorder

Post by Scott G »

Hi there,
I'm writing to you out of desperation. I am 37 years old, married without children, and until 4/16/20 working full time as a travel/ER/trauma nurse. I had no financial problems, and always lived beneath my means. On April 3, 2020, I was diagnosed with ischemic colitis which was thought to be related to an unknown blood clotting disorder.
I have been hospitalized 19 days since then and have been on medical leave from work. I had short-term disability insurance, which helped during the first 13 weeks. After that, I have not been able to make any further money. My husband has only been able to secure a part-time retail job. I have been told by my multiple medical providers that I have an acquired autoimmune disorder that causes excess clotting of my blood. I'm in severe pain every day, and have to take prescription medications for pain, nausea, muscle relaxation, and severe, debilitating migraines. I have also been diagnosed with autoimmune hypothyroidism and have had liver issues which are believed to be related to the autoimmune disorder. The blood tests for this disorder need to be done 12 weeks apart so I'm currently waiting for the final results of the blood disorder and a plan of care, which I have been told is blood thinners for the rest of my life. The severe migraines are also related to this clotting disorder. Having said all of that, I'm currently unable to work, and my doctors are unsure I will ever be able to practice emergency nursing again. Because of my previous work history, I do not qualify for any reduced-fee medical care for the blood clotting disorder. I receive my insurance through COBRA.
I find myself in a position where I've depleted my savings, my retirement account, and am still unable to pay my bills. This is a circumstance I never thought would happen to me, but here I am. We have a small mortgage on our home, and a car payment monthly. Our heating oil tank is empty, but we cannot afford to refill it at this time. We have managed to acquire food and have a full pantry and freezer now. We do not, however, have enough money for anything else. My husband makes approximately $225 per week, and has student loans, so his income is nearly used up after paying those. I have done some research for treatment for the blood clotting disorder, and have been unable to find any programs, or assistance that we would qualify for given my previous income bracket, and lack of children.
Could you possibly offer us some hope? Thank you,
Karin
