Krisy / N6KV needs assistance
|
+I am off the floor for now, but now I am unable to stand due to my legs giving out. I've?been in the hospital 5 times and the last time the FD have been picking me up off the floor. About a week ago, they came and lifted me off?the floor and it did something. about 3 days ago it started to hurt. I lifted my shirt to find a massive bruise, see photo. It hurts but I'm ok. I need for someone to clear the snow and check in with me. EriK kD6RRR has done a lot for me but he has been busy with his stuff. I had my older brother, who drove 780 miles from San Diego, to help me for a few days. Then he had to go to see his daughter up in Eugene, who had a bad accident on Christmas Eve.? I need to rehome most of my cats, I have a few 1-year-olds,?Tabbies, and a black one. and a few older cats. I am keeping 3 of my older cats They (the doctors) do not know what's?wrong but it's?neurological.?

Krisy, I am unable to help due to my own back problems and significant nerve impairment that limits my ability to lift. Many of our members, like you and me are seniors and would have trouble providing the in-home help that you need. You need professional in-home care. There are a variety of entities that should be able to help. You should contact Klamath County as they have services for individuals who require care: Probably the best place to start is:
Additionally, your insurance should have a number on the back of your card that has contact information to also inquire about in-home care. Medicare has contact numbers for also finding in-home help. Senior Health Insurance Benefit Assistance (SHIBA) Phone: 1-800-633-4227 Website: https://healthcare.oregon.gov/shiba I do not know if you have a Medicare Advantage plan like Atrio. If you have Atrio you can call 1-877-672-8620 for their customer service. They have social workers who can also arrange for in-home help and other services. If you have some coverage by the Oregon Health Plan, their number to call for in-home help is: 1-800-273-0557 I don't think that most of the K-BAR-A members are capable of providing the in-home help that you need for your healthcare issues. Indeed, they are there because they are interested in ham radio. While most of the club is willing to provide some help, that help should be with ham-radio related issues, not complex in-home medical care that you seem to need. That is why state, county, and health-insurance related entities are geared up to do exactly that. If you ham radio problem, certainly K-BAR-A is there to help. Best wishes, Alan KF3KF
