Hi, I need some advice. I was the victim of a hit and run about 3 weeks ago (in New Jersey).
I was walking home from the grocery store and a guy ran a red light and hit me. He then left me for dead, lying in the middle of the rainy intersection. I saw him leave and fortunately there were other people around to help me but "no one saw anything" (gee thanks). I broke my pelvis in 3 places and broke my shoulder.
I was at a job interview earlier that day to be a temp to get some income and benefits, as I was laid off and trying for a year to get a job (oh they called that night and i got the temp job, but not anymore). I WAS on unemployment, but that ended about 1 month before the accident.
They haven't found the guy yet and I doubt they ever will! In the meantime, I can't work, I can't walk, I have no health insurance (and can't afford it on my own!!) since I have no job and I had my car reposessed after I was laid off, so I have no car insurance!
Anyway, I have about $60,000 (so far) in hospital bills and I can't work at all for a LONG time! I'm trying to get disablity, but they are saying I probably won't get it! I can't pay these bills and can BARELY make my rent each month. What do I do?? Where can I go? I have applied for everything under the sun with no luck so far!!! Please any advice would help....i'm at the end of my rope and don't know what to do...
