This is the hardest thing for me to do im a very self sustained and proud person until NOW please read and maybe pass it
On to anyone who might be willing to help or may know of some resources
My story is this
I’m a married mother of three who had a pretty good life a good job happy family and nice home
And of course a good friend
I worked at speedway super America in Wyoming Minnesota I started out as a shift lead one and was quickly promoted to assistant manager we had gone through a lot of managers as no one could handle the hard work or long hours or not stealing ( some people) I loved my job I loved helping people I was working my butt off as we had gone through 3 different manager all getting fired some days I would open the store at 4:00 am work until 1:00 pm come home for two hours to rest then go back to work at 5:00pm until close and get up the next day at 2:30 am to do it all over again on June 12th 2007 I was working a double shift I went into the back room to pull and put up back stock we needed to stock chex mix it was on the very top of the shelving unit I got out the ladder climbed to the top to reach the chex mix when the ladder came out from under me I tried to grab on to something anything I fell on the concrete floor at first I couldn’t move then I laid there trying to call the other person working they couldn’t here me so I crawled to the door and opened it and yelled for help I had to wait there for the manager to come to the store and fill out a accident report my husband came and took me to the hospital I had a cracked rib, bruises and hurt my back three months have gone by and I need two surgery’s one for a hip replacement and when I get my new hip I will need I back surgery. Super America has let me go from my job I guess that’s how they pay you back for all your hard work. I did receive two work comp checks but they quickly stopped I have obtained a lawyer and I have a deposition on September 26th because of this my family is having a very hard time paying bills, buying school clothes, and basic need items gas food and so on what makes this worse is my husband has had a lot of time off of work due to plant shut downs so his income has been less the halve leaving us in a very bad financial situation if anyone could please help I will be so thankful and always remember it as someday I will be in a position to help someone someday
