Also My Cousin And I Are Finalizing Our Plans For The Out Of State Trip, She Has Some Ideas But Does

Please help me afford life-saving insulin and other meds!

hi everyone I know I haven’t been on here in a while, i’m so sorry if anyone was worried. I hate to have to ask for help again but it’s a serious health issue and I don’t know what else to do. I have type 1 diabetes that I’m prescribed human analog insulin in pen form for; there’s about 14 pens every month (one main dose of long-acting a day plus one dose of fast-acting per meal) and several medications. All these meds are extremely expensive and my parents told me the terrible insurance they receive thru work that barely covered them in part before wont cover them at all anymore. we’ve tried a patient assistance program but the application hasn’t been responded to yet and this state probably has a massive backlog of them. without actually saying they won’t, my parents are basically refusing to pay for them ‘right now’ because there are “more serious expenses that have to come first” since they affect the whole household and not just me even though I literally NEED these meds to survive and keep functioning well.

this is partly because I had to cry and beg my parents to let me start getting treatment in the first place. they still don’t like the fact that I’m even taking meds and think I don’t truly need them even though the improvement in me compared to before is so clear. they’re a little more understanding about my diabetes/insulin needs since they know it’s out of my control (I’m lucky I don’t have type 2 tbh) but they’ve still decided that it has to take a backseat. I can’t afford to wait until they feel like everything else that’s ‘more important’ than my wellbeing is taken care of, I’m really worried about the damage my MH could take if I’m off my medication for too long and missing insulin doses on top of that will just make it worse and actually puts my life in danger.

Trying to stagger my eating so I’m having less meals every day helps stretch my mealtime doses out a little longer. right now I only have enough doses left to last about 1 1/2 more weeks so if I can’t raise enough money to at least afford the insulin, I’ll probs have to start rationing them — and if I have to do that for too long it’s very likely to end up killing me. if anyone can spare anything AT ALL to help cover the cost of all my medications, any amount wld truly be so helpful and mean so much! even if you can’t support by d/nating, just reblogging this post to b00st it helps alot! please please share!

Dont ignore

Hi tumblr, im not seeing any mention of this over here right now so I'd like to help spread awareness here too since this really needs to be addressed.

About 2 to 3 days ago, police brutally killed latjor tuel, a black man suffering from mental illness and was having an episode when he was killed, and then proceeded to leave his body in the streets for 8 hours.

They're trying to justify killing him, but there was no reason for his death period, he was a man having an episode with his mental illness and all he was supposedly "armed" with was a STICK.

Latjor tuel did not deserve to die like this at all, what the police did to him and the state they left him in is not justifiable whatsoever. This treatment of black people cannot go on.

PLEASE, donate to the families GFM if you can:

And help spread about this as much as possible by any means you can

Choose kindness.

Strawberry stickers!!!!!! I wanted the packaging to look like a little seed pack and I think they came out sooooo cute!

OH MY GOD I didn’t even know any of this!!!! thank you so much for the advice, this is so helpful!!!! you’re right I definitely do need to make plans for a long stay out of state and a hotel room so I can take both doses and pass everything from my body. I am genuinely so glad you told me this because I would have just gone home afterward jesus christ. I absolutely cant risk anyone in my family, ESPECIALLY my parents, noticing what my body is going through and finding out about my abortion happening right under their roof or everything would hit the fucking fan in a terrifying way

I think now I have raise my goal to at least $1970 for the pill, a ton of pads, food and gas, and a hotel to stay at for at least a week with my cousin while my body finishes going through the process of the abortion. I’m so so sorry to have to ask, I know everyone is struggling so much in these times right now but I really do need the help. seeing this massive outpouring of compassion, love, and support means more to me than I’m able to put into words. you guys are literally helping me save my life.

I was assaulted and now I’m pregnant, please help me get an abortion

I was forcefully outed to my family about a year ago by a vindictive ex friend when he asked me tobe his gf and I trusted him enough to tell him no because I’m gay. my whole family was horrified and I just barely avoided being sent to conversion camp by swearing to my them that I wasn’t acting on it physically. two months later, they sent me to live with my father’s sister and her husband in another state for seven months and the last few weeks that I was there my uncle assaulted me several times, claiming that he was going to “teach me to enjoy what god wants me to love”. I was so traumatized by the assault and my state of mind only got worse when I went back home because my parents could tell something was different and they interpreted it as having been succesfully “converted” by my time with my aunt and uncle.

my absolute worst fear was realized when I saw my doctor two weeks ago and he told me I was pregnant. Im only 16 I know I cannot handle having a child especially as the product of my assault. in tenessee abortion laws are so rigid and restrictive and there aren’t even any clinics close to me that can help. I’m afraid any place in state will tell my parents what I’m trying to do because I’m so young. my only chance is to go out of state with my cousin for the abortion pill which will cost me at least $970 because I’m completely uninsured. I’m already about a month along so I have six weeks left to take the pill successfully. I beat myself up every day for not just denying the truth and telling them my friend was just angry at me and lying because he knew they’d be disgsted. my anxiety has never been thsi bad, I don’t know what I’ll do to myself if I can’t get this abortion. I haven’t even told me parents because I’m so terrified they won’t even just deny the truth and they’ll actually lock me away and force me to keep the baby. please I’m poor and so desperate and so fucking scared, please please please help me.
