How to raise funds for medical costs?

Asked by Unbroken (10746points) December 20th, 2014

My situation is the doctors will not release me for any type of work. I can’t receive unemployment because I have to be actively looking and have a doctor’s form allowing me to work. Public assistance I was getting food stamps but then I had to get recertified… and was in the hospital missed the deadline now I have to resubmit completely.. The next interview is months away.. and that was the soonest… I probably qualify for other benefits now but I still have to wait months for an appointment.

I have applied for ssi but was denied I appealed but then was in the hospital and missed the deadlines… then they lost my paperwork and I had to resubmit a. I get paid 362 every month from disability. I travel out of town every month for treatment that my insurance won’t cover anything but the medical cost. I take 30+ supplements. I live upon my parents charity right now. But they are in their 60’s 50’s. They haven’t even retired yet. I don’t want to be a sponge. I just don’t see any way of avoiding it..

Is there a way I can raise funds in the community or online so that I can at least distribute my costs among those who actually choose to donate?
