How to survive financially
 

I had neuropathy. Last spring I had a fall. It was painful, but of course I tried to treat myself. I had a boot to put on and wore it. Pain and swelling got worse over the months. In August a Dr diagnosed it as cellulitis and put me on antoibiotic.
It got worse. Went to Foot Dr and was diagnosed with Charcot. Im a non diabetic. I wore a rocker bottom boot until recently when they decided the bones had consolidated.
I went to a diabetic shoe with a special insert. My foot and ankle had gotten so stiff and weak I started therapy 2 weeks ago. Four days ago my foot became very swollen and painful. My foot Dr said if it came back he was taking me off of it, which means I cant work.
I will be homeless. I am very depressed over the whole situation. Someone share please:(
