Something just happened to me that cannot be explained other than an act of GOD. Here is the story:
In August 2011, I got sick with a fever. At first, I was trying to tough it out because it's just a fever, nothing that some soup and bed rest couldn't handle. But my fever would not go down. 100. . .100.4. . . 101.3. . .you know a fever is bad when your temperature sounds like a radio station. 102. . . 103.4. . . . It just kept on rising and I kept on trying to tough it out. My mother wanted to take me to the hospital and I said no, I'll be okay plus I don't have insurance and I don't want to deal with that bill. But if it rises another degree, we gotta go to the hospital. I'm weak and burning up. Hoping that a shower would make me feel better, I hop in, wash up, get out and lay back down to take a nap.
When I woke up. . . . .104.3. . . and I felt like death. Thinking about my deteriorated health made my uninsured self realized that a hospital bill might not be that bad. I called my mother and said, we gotta go to the hospital. Extremely weak, couldn't barely walk, dry heaving, I somehow make it to the car. I get to the hospital, stumble through the ER doors and get taken directly to see a doctor. I was given a cold IV and Incredible Hulk Strength Tylenol. It helped.
I was feeling better and when I got home my gf was waiting for me there worried sick about me. That made me feel good. But then the bill came. . . . . $4,083.34.
$4,083.34
I saw that and was like. . . .
Yup, the hospital gave me a bill for $4,083.34. Of course I couldn't pay that. So the bill went to a collection agency where they tracked me down and I gave what I could each month. Unfortunately it was no more than $100 a month. But every time they called, I picked, made polite conversation, never got an attitude and paid.
The last time I checked I got my bill down to $3,258.00.
Here is where God comes in and says, you are my child and I got you my nigga. . . .(ok, so he didn't say those words exactly but it was close to it)
Couple days ago I get a phone call from the collection agency asking for my payment. Since they already had my information on file I ask them to take $100 from my card on file. The person on the phone says, "We can't do that". I ask, "Hmm, Why not?". They reply, " Because all you owe on this account is $90.57"
$90.57
First i was like. . .
Then I was like. . .
But ultimately, I was like. . .
As of now, my medical bill debt is paid and I owe $0.00.
If God can bring you to it, He can bring you through it. I got deathly sick, got hit with a hefty medical bill, but God got me through it and took care of my debt. I can't thank anyone but God for this blessing.
Prayer works people,
Keep on praying,
Let the Lord use you,
Keep on evolving,
