Hello.

Thank you. MARIA.

thank you for sharing this here so that we can help to brainstorm some ideas to support you. Managing a chronic illness is hard, and the financial impact of it can present its own set of challenges.
I was going to make the same recommendation as Doreen to check with local MS support groups or organizations that may have some assistance programs. I see that she recommended the National MS Society. There's also the MS Association of America https://mymsaa.org/. Either of them should have some programs specifically for those living with MS.
I would also encourage you to look outside of those organizations as well. A lot of community centers and churches have different programs, especially this time of year that could potentially help.
We're thinking of you and glad that you're part of this community to support you as best we can virtually. - Alene, moderator
