If he loses his job we will lose everything and his disease will progress

My husband has worked as maintenance for over 20yrs and been on fmla disability for most that time.he has iracnoiditis and degenerative disc disease. And has had kidney failer when he was 18 and suffered permanent damage from that and can’t take ibuprofen or anything that could effect his kidneys.he has went to neurosurgens and they recommended fentenyal he tried it and couldn’t take side effects. So his doctor put him on morphine and has been on high doses stable for years.even with his meds he has flare ups and has to take up to 4 days a month off.now the insurance he pays for tried to cut him to 1 3rd of what he used to take.we filed 1st appeal and they only gave him half of what he was stable on for only 2 months.he has become depressed stressed and defeated.he just wants to support his family. How can they have the power to hold his job over his head.he does nothing outside of work now and is starting to miss days and we can’t afford it.he supports 2 family’s.someone has to do something he cannot have any quality of life without pain relief. If he loses his job we will lose everything and his disease will progress.there is no cure for his disease so that means its pallative. We are in constant fear of our lives falling apart. This is not his fault that he has a disability and he should be allowed to support his family.

  1. I agree that you need to call your local media and get this on the news!

  2. Call your local media and get your story out to the public. The general public has no idea this is what’s happening. They just believe fake news and that trump is stopping the war on opioid. By cutting your husbands script?? And mine and e everyone else’s??
    We have to get as many of these stories out there. We have nothing to lose but we are running out of time.
