Caring for Troy is a full-time job, and the financial strain has become overwhelming. Our bills are much higher than what we receive from long-term disability, and I no longer have any income. We’ve had to modify our mortgage to keep our home, and we’re behind on payments for our special mobility van, which is in desperate need of repairs. Everyday expenses like food have become a struggle, and we’re facing pressure from our HOA to paint our house. On top of that, we have unpaid credit cards, medical bills from Troy’s pneumonia and feeding tube surgery, and ongoing costs for his clinic visits, prescriptions, and equipment like a new shower chair. Every night, Troy relies on his Tobii to wake me so I can help him move and relieve his pain from cramping.
ALS has taken so much from us, but Troy’s determination to help others remains unshaken. He knows a cure may not come in time for him, but he keeps fighting for those who will face this disease in the future. Your support will help us cover essential medical and living expenses, and allow Troy to continue his advocacy work for as long as possible. We are deeply grateful for any help you can give, and for standing with us in this fight.
