Hello, I have been a carpenter and I have worked taking care of my family and now I have grandchildren.
With Covid, my work was diminished.
First, like everyone else, who works in people’s homes. You couldn’t go and do the work, but since I myself got sick and was hospitalized, my jobs became less and less.
The recovery took many more than six months. And I had scars on my lungs, which further restricted my entry into the workshop, since the dust is always in the air. I also had complications with my heart, but although I was treated accordingly, I can say that I have improved a lot and it is currently not a big problem.
But everything got complicated for me and my family, in the middle of last year when I started to have little mobility, my arms fell asleep and woke up, tingling almost constantly. Not only in my arms but my legs and waist were slowly losing mobility.
My last job was in November 2022. Starting in December I began to have severe pain, first in both legs and then only in the left. That’s why I was in a wheelchair, with a walker, with a cane. I have been in the hands of specialist doctors: neurologists, rheumatologists, traumatologists, spine specialists. The unfortunate thing about my visits is that they downplayed its importance, they told me: “well, use a cane.”
The last specialist was the Internist, who was able to verify a disabling problem and who expressed interest in retiring due to illness. But since I can be on a computer (at just turned 59), it is “impossible” for me.
A few months ago I started writing, trying to have another way of working. I wrote two little books on Amazon. I had as an excuse, where my ancestors came from. My mother told me how my Grandfather arrived, during the First World War, here in Uruguay. In my research, after a long time searching, I found that my family hundreds of years before was of Noble origin. I even found a shield with my last name. It was nice to know that I can write a book with all my research.
The truth is that I say these things to imply that I can be useful in other ways: writing, writing, summarizing writings, since I have good diction in my language as well as reading comprehension. although I do not have degrees or have taken courses. My education has helped me in dealing with my clients, allowing me to offer completions to my work and trying to satisfy their desire and taste.
For these things, I will never put a number on my attendance. As a title I have put, “Partial help until my retirement.” Starting in October-November, I hope to have retirement, although it won’t be much. Otherwise all retirees would deserve to have separate financial aid. My request is for this time, and I am available to compensate in some way, according to my abilities.
Thank you in advance.
