Hey all, been a bit since I last posted. I'm still haven't gotten my Nal yet. In fact, I haven't even been able to procure the funds to order from allday.

My family will not support me on this. I work a part time job and a temp job that is sporadic at best. I'm struggling to keep my head above water just as far as rent/utilities alone go. Top that off with the ever-present desire to drink, and I'm a drowning man.

I'm HOPING that my next pay period, April 2nd, I will FINALLY be able to place my order, but who knows, my best laid plans always seem to never work out.

Sorry for the bitchin', wanted to vent and maybe get some advice from others who were in a similar boat. I have no insurance, and none of the charitable agencies I have contacted have been even slightly interested in helping me get Nal.

To put it into an analogy, I feel like a man who is dying of thirst in the desert, spot an oasis within short distance, and finds himself tangled in cactus. I will try to persevere.

Hi OM, I wish I were in a position to help with the nal, but right now I'm not. All I can offer is words of support: Hang in there, things won't be like this forever! Best wishes - Fire

That is a very kind offer, but like you said, it can lead to a larger problem later if everyone starts soliciting funds like that. And to be honest, I gotta get my own head together and be an adult for a change. To pull this off without family support will be rough, but I will get this done!
My life depends on it!

I just wanted to vent. I'm frustrated I can't get started as soon as I wanted to, but I will cope until I can.

Good luck Craig. This works. We are rooting for you.
