Melancholic Mediocrity

UPDATE: The good news is I was able to place the order in time so that they should arrive tomorrow!

The bad news is I forgot about another withdrawal from my account and now I need to try and raise the rest asap so that the charge doesn't bounce 🤦‍♂️

**NOTE: This post discusses a medical challenge my partner deals with. While we both deeply appreciate everyone's concern and support, please PLEASE note this is something we've been dealing with for years. I promise we've likely already tried or lack the spoons to pursue whatever miracle cure, PT exercise regimen, cream, pill, supplement, religious practice, pagan ritual, and so on you have for us. We appreciate it but this is not what we're here for at this particular moment.**

As you may already be aware, our car is not currently drivable which has forced my partner to commute to work by public transit, requiring a lot of walking. Lyft/uber isn't a practical option because depending on the time of day, it can cost almost half the wages from his shift just to get there and back.

Unfortunately, he also has severe plantar fasciitis from an insanely high foot arch. So severe in fact he's had to give up several jobs that he actually enjoyed and were good for him, and those were during times when he was less affected by his PTSD.

Last night he told me his feet are hurting like they were back then. It took him months to return to a point where he could walk for longer than a few minutes without pain. He had to call out sick for his shift today because it hurts too much.

He's in a very precarious situation. He's been employed at this job for six months now (after a two-year period of unemployment due to mental health-related problems) and has been making due, but if we can't get his fasciitis under control *now*, this may endanger his employment yet again.

While I would love to instantly raise the remaining $1400+ needed to get the car fixed, even if I *could* do that it, it's not something that can be done on someone's lunch break. (see https://beige.party/@LibertyForward1/116681550526241712)

In the meantime, every shift he works is going to dramatically increase his suffering.

He now wants to get a scooter so that like me, he can use it to get to the bus with less wear on his feet.

I've been using a little-kid's-style scooter, probably exceeding the maximum weight capacity by 25lbs or more. The wheels are so tiny that instead of rolling over obstacles, it just comes to a halt (which unfortunately does not include halting my person) and I've had at least four incidents in the past six months where I've risked injury because I either went sailing over the handlebars or fell backwards off the scooter.

I cannot let him use one like that because I am a hypocrite and because I also believe I'm a little more.. sturdy, shall we say than he is. I have more built-in padding.

But I also have been having pain in my right hand for the past two months when I landed on my wrist during a fall.

Apparently if I'm expecting him to use a safer scooter and safety equipment than what I'm currently using, supposedly I'm expected to do the same. 🙄

Therefore I have two scooters and safety equipment in an online shopping cart that can be here by tomorrow afternoon to allow him time to practice and get familiar before he works this weekend, but I've got to order as soon as humanly possible.

We're trying to make the best of a very inconvenient situation. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

If you're willing AND able, please boost and if possible donate. If you can't donate, *do NOT feel guilty* for being in the same boat as us. Your feelings about it are valid but rest assured you needn't feel bad.
