I am sorry for all the ranting on not having money. It was last July 5, 2013 when I hurt my back at work. All I knew Is that I had intense pain to my midback area. I did not know that I would be out of work for over a year. I have had several injuries and I always bounced back. I even gave birth to 3 children but this is the first time I could not handle my back pain. The beginning it was so painful to do anything and nothing worked. The doctor could not pin point why I was in so much pain. I finally had a MRI done in September of last year which finally showed what was causing my pain, In the T7 and T8 I have a protrusion and in the T9 and T10 area I have a herniated disc which is pinching a nerve. I could not even clean my house at the beginning. I finally was sent to a pain management doctor and was given three trigger point injections but did not do anything to relieve my pain. In January, I was given an epidural injection which finally gave me relief and I was able to do more but it wore off after a month. I was in the work hardening program and also the chronic pain program but to no avail. Due to all of this I was diagnosed with depression relating to my injury. Finally today I am feeling 80% better and I thought I would have a new job by now but no such luck even with all the applications I have been putting in. I do get called for interviews but once they find out about my back they will tell me I still have more applications to go through we will call you back. The call back never comes. It has been really hard on my family and on me. I am still fighting my case and I finally applied for assistance to help with food but all that is still going to take time. My son finally realized how bad off we were when Rent a Center (Alamo) came to repossess his birthday present. I am out there trying to find a job but nothing yet. I know this is only temporary but its hard to have to say no to my children and to my oldest that mom does not have money right now. Its even worse when your husband makes you feel worthless and that I dont love my children because I cant find a job. So please just keep our family in your prayers. We even have the worst looking house in the block because there is not any money left to fix up our yard. We are even stuck with three dogs that we do not have enough money to take them to the vet and for food. One dog belongs to the neighbors and the other two were given to my children by one of their friends. I am a dog lover but how can I accept dogs if we cannot take care of them. I told their friend that but he still left the dogs with my children. We have been dealing with my not working now for a year but without money coming in since May. I have been borrowing from my mom but now she is running out of money. All I ask is just keep us in your prayers and we finally catch up without anymore setbacks.
