I retired in March 2023 after working in Healthcare for approximately 46 years as a Medical Orthotist/Prosthetist committed to the service of Mankind. I ventured into Private Orthotics/Prosthetics in 2005 as a self employed owner. Even though we were strugling financially it was extremely rewarding and satisfying. Then in 2010 I, who was the sole Orthotist and breadwinner, was struck down with Colorectal Cancer Stage 3. I had an Ileostomy bag which was removed after 2,5 years. Needless to say my company finances took a significant knock during my treatment which caused me to go begging for a position at the local government institution. I was accepted back into the system in 2015. At least I then had a steady income with which I could feed my family as well as repay the debt incurred during my recovery. I could also afford the endless medication associated with the aftereffects of the treatment. Newly acquired Diabetes, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Colitis and unstable Angina accompanied my High Blood Pressure as part of my daily struggles. After the removal of my Iliostomy bag constipation became my nightmare however all these illnesses did not stop me from providing my best service to my clients. The worst though was still to come. Without any Counseling for my dreaded disease there was no preparation for the insecurities that followed – both financial and emotional. In 2021 I was completely overcome by my forthcoming retirement and my dire financial situation that I got swallowed by a bitcoin scam. Within this dark tunnel I lost all my life savings, my life policies and maxed my credit cards before coming to my senses. On awakening I was forced into Debt Review which has now become a complete nightmare during my retirement. During this dark period of my life I still fulfilled my normal working obligations even though it caused many health setbacks. Now only 2 years after my retirement I have reached rock bottom. I am in desperate need of money to cover my debt in order to get back on my feet. I pray that life will be merciful and that I will find the financial assistance so that I can once again continue my journey of assistance to mankind. Please assist with whatever you can. It will be highly appreciated. https://paypal.me/KeithStoffberg?locale.x=en_US&country.x=ZA
