Master’s hurt his back, and there is fuck all I can do to help him.

We need stuff in the house, but we can’t go shopping because I don’t drive and he’s not allowed. Though the whole process of going to the doctor, getting X-rays, and buying his prescriptions didn’t break us, as we feared, we still don’t have a lot of money, even though we’ve both done side work. Getting the things that would lessen his current pain and the chance of this happening again is so insanely out of our reach it’s depressing.

There’s nowhere comfortable for him to sit or lay in this house. We need a new mattress; the one we have is 11 years old.
