Until about six months ago, R. was the manager of a successful chain store. Until he was diagnosed with a chronic illness, and had to leave everything behind.
From a successful and respected person, he became a sick man trying to cope with his challenging situation.
His successful work life may have stopped, but his family's daily living expenses, including food, electricity, and water, continue as usual. In addition, they have a disabled child whose care creates an additional strain on their already difficult financial situation.
At first, he tried to get by financially by using his remaining sick days. But with the painful understanding and acceptance that this disease would always accompany him, he began the tedious process of applying for a government disability pension.
Since the process is long and ongoing, he demanded to meanwhile receive the unemployment benefits that he is entitled to by law. However, his former boss is denying him the possibility of receiving unemployment benefits.
R. finds himself faced with the impossible situation of dealing with a chronic disease, a disabled child, and a terrible feeling of betrayal from the place he loved so much... and above all - no income!
Let's comfort R. during the difficult days he is going through, and help him with his living expenses in the coming months until he's approved for government disability allowance.
