“Cuando empecé con las facturas médicas, me sentí sola y asustada. Lo que me ayudó fue hablar con otras personas que ya habían pasado por eso. No tienes que saberlo todo de golpe. Pregunta, llama, pide ayuda. A veces las cosas se arreglan con el tiempo y con paciencia. No estás sola en esto, aunque a veces lo parezca.”
“To whoever needs this: I was where you are this time last year. The worst part was rationing my insulin. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do.”
“To whoever needs this: In 2022 I was exactly where you are. I remember payment plans with three providers like it was yesterday. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.”
“I'm not going to tell you it's easy, because it's not. The bills pile up, and the shame is real. But you're not the only one. I've found that talking about it, even just on here, makes it a little less heavy. And ask for help. The debt management plan we're on took some of the pressure off, even if it's slow. You're doing the best you can.”
