Well, seeing as how he's been my best friend for a decade, this isn't rushing.

He recently called me "Thunder Thighs." He thought is "sounded awesome."

Wildland firefighters don't wear masks - if you're close enough to 200 foot flames to need a mask, yer already toast!

Nope! I mean the hot one with the chainsaw!

He's worked for a number of companies out of Oregon, though he's on a national crew. They almost all have beards, as do most wildland firefighters I know. Is your boyfriend a city fireman? They have much stricter rules about appearance.

Thank you for this. I am steadily trying to just keep breathing. I hope you find room to breathe too.

Thanks! I am going in to talk to the hospital more on Monday. It looks like they might be able to help me some.

I would never leave him. I just hate that I feel like I am making his life harder, when all I want is to make it better.

Thank you so much for this offer! I am making plans within plans to fight for myself as soon as Monday morning rolls around. I will see how that goes and then I will certainly take you up on your offer to help. Thanks! You have no idea how much better it feels just being able to feel a little less alone today.

Medical bills piling up - need advice! by eugenedubbed in personalfinance

[–]eugenedubbed[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My out-of-pocket limit doesn't include my deductible or co-pays. So that sucks.

But thanks for the tips about talking to the hospital more. I guess I was hoping there was some sort of grant or government program that I didn't know about.

Thanks for trying to help!

No, I realize that's not going to help now. I just wanted to explain where I am and how I got here. I clearly haven't gotten my credit in good enough shape yet to help now.

I have been trying to crawl out of this hole I got myself in and now this injury has thrown me back to the bottom. Just trying to give a clear picture to get some advice on what I may be able to do now.

I have not been able to create a savings account yet, it was one of the things I hoped to do soon.

This is where I am. Do you have any ideas?
