"I had to work seven days a week, anywhere between 50 and 60 hours a week, as well as go to school fulltime. That was until I had to take time off work to have knee surgery. They started sending me the bills for everything before I was even able to walk again. I thought I might have to drop out. I did not think I was going to make it. I got an email that changed my life.
