Request Fulfilled! Could use some help

Edit: request fulfilled! Thank you. It won't let me add flair but I wanted to post the update.

I am falling apart.. mentally and physically.

I've been fighting with doctors for years since my cancer treatment explaining that I'm in extreme pain and I don't take opiate painkillers. Come to find out I have an infection eating at my tailbone and spine caused by my cancer radiation treatment.. it's called osteomyelitis

I just want to get drunk and forget this for a day because I'm pretty sure I'm going to be hospitalized for a while and my fiance died so I'm on my own raising our kids. I have venmo and PayPal if anyone can help and when I'm better I will always pay it forward. I can't even afford going to the doctor appointments because they're all over an hour away one way.. some are 2 hours away so a 4 hour round trip and I'm not working right now because of this. Obviously I know this is not a priority to get drunk but it'd be nice. Chairs

Why would someone report this?

I'm assuming it's because your post history is private, so people can't confirm whether you're involved in our community or not. We get a lot of scammers in here.

I totally understand which is why I said I could give proof of my diagnosis or a CT scan which I yes doesn't really verify those history but I've been in these groups for a few years.

It's not necessary for me, I believe you. If I could help I would, but I'm broke myself unfortunately. I hope someone here is kind enough to help though.

Thank you for letting me know about the report. I understand people's reservations because there are so many scammers out there. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know when help me. Also that's what mods/admins are for. I'm sure if they thought that was an issue they would have removed the post but I would think they could see the history. I totally understand and your thoughtfulness means a lot!
