I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer 3 years ago. For the first two years I only had medicare, no secondary ins. or prescription coverage and am deeply in debt. I get SS disability but don't make it from paycheck to paycheck. My youngest son is 10 and I'd like to leave him some memories and not have to say "no, we can't afford it" all the time. I also need to bury myself, I can't get life insurance. I will pay it forward and have actually been in the "giving" position myself years ago and felt so good about it, I can't believe I'm in this position, I've never asked for anything before. Thank you for listening (or reading), I know nothing will happen but it helped to get it out.

I am so depressed right now, I wish I could just go to sleep and never wake up again

------------------------------------

i am a senior citizen, and am a cancer patient. we are struggling, gas is almost unatainable, and food is getting very expensive, in fact there are times we are hungry, we do not have small children any longer, but  my husband is the only one that can work at this time, and the money is not enough. Medical bills are very high due to my cancer, and we can only afford to drive once or twice a week to doctors, and to the store. the gas has to be saved for work. What can our government do better to help so many people that are hurting now. Do they really even care?
