Financial Mental Breakdown #6

I think that I am a very giving person. I don't forgive people easily, but I usually can at least tolerate them, (except one person that I hate, and only my family know who that is...) I still hate her. So today, today I am having what I think is about the 6th financial mental breakdown of the month.

I give a lot to people, I come to their events, I do whatever I can whenever I can. Right now I have been going through a lot of emotional events so I am a bitch one minute, and am sweet the other moment(s). As people get older, they get sick, they have families, and they go on with their lives. I need to take time and thank the many people who are taking time out of their weekend to golf in an outing that helps me. There are over 100 people who will be golfing 18 holes and having a fabulous time. And to each and every one of them, I thank you! I thank you very much. I have a few amazing friends from KC MO coming up to help with shots, with selling raffle tickets, and supporting me at the time in my life I need the most support. I even have a friend coming from Branson. Branson is about 9 hours from Omaha. I am totally emotional when I think of how far people are coming to help me raise money. Erica came from San Diego. Vanessa from Branson. Cara, Ali, Ang, and others from KC will take a day away from their daughters, (all of them have girls only... 6 total!) Anyway, they have a lot going on, and people will stop and help me. As this is getting closer, and I am seeing how much people do for me, I can feel the love. I mean Kim Schrack has done more then I can even begin. Sarah R and Farley... those two are my everything! well, they are Patti's everything right now. Melanie ordered shirts and all profits go to helping with bill. What about Dawn from the Marylebone?? She has donated so many items, time, and ideas. If you need a bar to get your drink on, or an amazing burger... go to the Marylebone!! Amazing!!

I learned years ago from a supervisor that, "Crisis is an opportunity to learn". I have learned that people care, people love, and people support! This crisis in my life has given me the chance to realize how much people can love and care. I have also learned about who can't come and maybe for reasons I am unable to tolerate. But that is the selfish Megan speaking...

I really hope people understand I can't give like I used to. But if people stop and think about what I have done... coming to Omaha for a few hours and an event to not stock my kitchen, or give me new bath towels. This event is to help with the over 8,000 dollars the University of Nebraska Medical Center is charging me. Yes, I have insurance, but being a patient for over 20 years... and not affording them for all my life, it adds up. So far over the last 2 years alone, my hospital bill is over 6,000 and that doesn't include out of pocket expenses. Out of pocket which includes prescriptions, doctor visits, etc...

I again want to thank EVERYONE who will be coming to the dinner, the golf, and the evening of drinks. This is to help with the costs of this disastrous event that has currently taken over my life!

I can't say thanks enough

  1. I sure hope that I'm not the girl that you hate...I think that a lot of people are excited to help! Stay positive...in about 2 weeks...you'll have more money than you'll know what to do with and those bills will be down to nothing!
