David Bales
Injury/Illness
Brain or Internal Organ Injury
Im 34 years old. I have an 8 year old. Hes the only reason im still alive. And asking for help. Ive worked hard my whole life. Even after suffering a severe TBI in 2013. But I now have 5 different disabilities and waiting on disability to come through. As previously stated ive had a severe TBI. 2 brain surgeries from that. Ive had 5 knee surgeries on my left knee and need a knee replacement but was told im too young. I have 2 tumors in my lower back in my spinal canal on my spinal cord. They are pressing on the nerves and will eventually paralyze me. No Dr will touch them im told because they will cause neurolpgical deficits. I have severe treatment resistant depression and anxiety. PTSD. And ADD. I'm losing everything. The one thing I don't want to lose is our home. It's me and my son's dream home. I looked into selling and getting an apartment but my mortgage is cheaper than an apartment. I hate being in this position. But we need help.
