Sharon had no health card or insurance so she said every time she couldn't go to hospital. Her body and legs were extremely swollen and she had a lot of pain. The room she rented was terrible, The rain came through the ceiling and if I remember well her frontdoor was kicked in as well (not sure if it was robbery). She had hardly to eat mainly her and the laptop and she couldn't open a bank account or lay hands on Steem without a middleman (in this case a woman).
As she finally stumbled into the hospital they kept her and tried to help her. She posted a few times from there while she kept asking for money because the rent should be paid, the hospital and so on.
I don't believe there were enough people who could help her with all the financial issues she had, at least not me. I still don't know why she emigrated and went abroad without savings. She could have emigrated to plenty of countries with better healthcare of perhaps social care?
It's extremely hard if you know no one and make no income and that case I would stay where I am because at least I can find my way here. I know where to ask or where I can find or get things for free like clothes and things for the house and even books. It's difficult and lonely without family or friends and I believe that family that helped her with steem dealt because of her with a lot of stress as well.
I am not sure if her son knows she died but heard her Steemit accounts were empties after she died but I never checked it.

It is a worry if you are left alone and if something bad happens how to pay for medical care or help. I have an insurance which hopefully pay for the funeral but someone has to tell them I died and ask for the money which is a certain amount and most likely not enough. i hope I can take care of myself because if I see homes it's not a place where I would like to stay.

If you have the money what would you like to do? Visit your niece or go to the cinema or the beach or? You drive a car so what if you stay over in a hotel if you visit a place, enjoy some foods or the scenery? Perhaps you can arrange a dialyse in a different hospital for one or two times?
I did that with my friend so we could rent a house nearby the beach. On the last evening we kind of celebrated. I made a fire, we ate and drank something and we gave each other a souvenir as a memory of the holiday we spent.
Let me know where you like to go, okay?

Nothing so bad as a dry mouth. I wonder if there's anything that helps against it. It's a good thing that there's Sprite available which can help a bit against the hunger too.

I understand it makes you uncomfortable if people stare at you but I keep wondering how you can breath with that mask. During the c19 misery I used one 2 or 3 times as I had to enter the shop and I can't plus I always start sneezing and it causes allergies to my skin. I rarely eat bread because I find it hard to swallow and easily choke in it. Seems to be something in our family.

If you like to talk you can always contact me though I am not always online. I switch off my phone if I sleep but feel free to leave me a message on Telegram @wakeupkitty or send me a gmail.

It's countdown right, soon your new phone will arrive and you will busy for hours to install everything you need or will you take photos first?

Say hi, to your mom, I hope she is feeling better and you are too.
Thank you for talking to me and the wishes, know that I consider you a friend.
We speak another soon, blessings and a warm embrace for you.
