Between the breathing problems that I am suffering from due to lung cancer and the severe neuropathic pain that I suffer from, it's incredibly difficult for me to function. Even getting out of bed in the morning is a struggle, and while I am currently working, it's damn near impossible to continue to hold down a job despite all of this.

If my condition worsens, I could very easily lose my job and end up becoming homeless. Also, affording my treatment is extremely difficult at times, as the co-pays are often too much for me to afford. And the cancer treatment that I am receiving is often making it nearly impossible to even afford the basics, such as housing. Plus, on top of that I was recently diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and frequently am suffering from PTSD-related flashbacks.
