I have about $50 in my savings right now, and that is what I was talking about adding to--not thousands of dollars. I've had two jobs my whole life, both for about 3 months before I had to quit because of health problems. I haven't had a steady income my whole life--when I say I would have money to save or spend, I wasn't at all talking about over $2000 worth.

I do have a good mattress, a TV, and everything I need to make my live as good as it can be considering all the pain. I do plan to pay off my medical bills that will not be covered with Medicaid... but beyond that, there isn't much I need. I need the help so that I can pay rent (whether I am living at home with my mom or eventually am able to live on my own again) and bills... cell phone and utility.

My name is Sarah and I am 25 years old. I have a lot of chronic health problems. Peripheral neuropathy and POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) keep me bedridden the majority of the time. I also struggle with degenerative disc disease, disc desiccation, spondylolisthesis, arthritis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance, allergies, sound sensitivities, and other health problems.
