2 Counts “ Possession “ - Waiting for disability

I was able to bail out of jail b/c at the time I had a full time job. Now that the state has picked up my charges . I am in very bad health and have , had no choice but to file for disability. I am doing everything I can to pay for this lawyer . Whom may not even get these cases dismissed. I am truly... scared of what’s to come. My court date is less hen one month away. I have to pay this man when he tells me . He will not represent you, if you are unable to make one payment, on the day he had decided. He told me “ if I am unable to make the scheduled payment then we no longer have a relationship.” Do you know how scary it is to be 86lbs , dying from loss of blood , and heart problems. To be spend the money to get bailed out , then money to obtain him as a lawyer, to just be tossed aside due to unable to make a full payment. I am literally contemplating suicide, torn from all my pride. B/C I do not know how I will have the money financially to pay him. Also ... I need to go to the hospital to have a blood transfusion and every time I am admitted due to near death. I don’t even want to go to the hospital b/c I will be admitted, and miss my court date / payment date with this man. I’m honestly not sure if you should hire him or not . I am scared that since he knows I am unable to keep my payment plans with him that he will not do the best job on my case. I get the fact that he should be paid for his work as everyone should. I just wish I felt more at ease about the situation and solution. I’m a nervous wreck, and I really do not see what the point is of me being on this earth any longer. I wish I could work . Or he would at least allow me to oh him as I can not as he wants . All of this is due to my actions of putting myself in a situation that got be put in jail. Believe I’m not blaming the lawyer for that, I am however. Wanting to warn anyone who is unable to make monthly or routine payments to seek other counsel . Or he will drop you. Hope this helps someone...
