My brother was from the start of my dialysis years had supported me all the way through, he is the most dependable among my other siblings which are the eldest and the youngest. In fact he is so supportive that he even married later than usual because he just supports me with my way back then out of pocket dialysis treatments which are very large in comparison to his wage as a common employee. but now he is in the supervisory level which I hope would be in the managerial level soon. I also hope that more blessing from God he would receive because he just literally saved my life many times over.
So now I thank God that I was able to support myself with the aid of my government insurance that shoulders most of my dialysis treatment bills which freed my brother from bearing the cost of my dialysis treatments. I guess that my brother is happy about me having the ability to support myself now without even being employed or having ever to leave my home for me to earn some money to purchase my medical needs and more.
I do think that God really intervenes in my life in particular because of the series of events that lead into freeing my family with worries in how to bridge out my life. So I just thank God about the steem platform because of that which gave me a sense of security that somehow my situation is not that pitiful anymore when it comes to paying up bills and buying things that I needed medically which are not cheap like the Cinacalcet for hyperparathyroidism and the phosphate binder, nt to mention extra hospital bill charges that is needed to pay every dialysis treatment and some of the foods that I wanted to eat like fruits and my canned pineapple juice.
That in itself is also a blessing to that brother of mine pictured above, so I am just thankful too that he overcame his heart issues and based on the current heart examinations that had been done to him the doctor finally declared that he has no heart illness anymore. The clog on his heart vanished already and because he is a smart man he also altered his diet plus he is intermittently fasting for the purpose of enhancing/curing his heart ailment which have resulted into wiping away his heart disorder once and for all.
I just wished that I have two more or even one more of this kind of brother which truly had become my friend as he had proven it many times already. If only my eldest brother was like him I would have not been like this and suffering from bone complications that is hard to manage both physically and financially.
But my family in general just can offer much and will just dry them up if they would consider helping me out totally. My family is not really obligated to help me, it is just they are supportive especially my brother above and my parents which really doesn't deserve my being a drag to them.
I would like to really live alone but I do not think that my parents would allow it. So I will just be thankful that they are still around and I will just enjoy their support and from being a vital part of my life. I am praying and I am lso asking others to pray fro my parents to make them hold their strength because I needed them badly. I do not think that my siblings are welcoming me as part of their household in the event of my parents would not be around anymore. So that is just my worry that somewhat haunts my mind everyday because I do not want to outlive one or both of my parents for the dear of getting a very, very hard time fending off for myself.
That is why I am keeping myself busy as an Ant to collect and save some finances so that i would be financially free and can afford somebody to care for me even without the intervention of my family. It explains my persistence in blogging my stories here in the steem platform which had been a part of my life that freed my family from the burdens of financial liability and worry for me.
