[quote=Anonymous]OP, go and have yourself checked by a doctor if the pain persists beyond tomorrow.  I would also mention to the family today that you slipped and fell on their sidewalk, so that they are prepared for a follow-up conversation if necessary.  You may be surprised, and your employer may offer to help of their own accord (though I would not expect it).

If the doctor says that you require treatment, ask for a written and detailed estimate for the services.  You may also mention to your doctors' office that you are uninsured, as you may be eligible for federal, state or county assistance -- which the doctor's office might know of.

Present your employers with an estimate of your treatment costs if you cannot afford to pay them yourself, and ask if they could please help.

Be prepared for the worse.  Also, they may help you initially with your costs, but decide that you are a liability in the long run that they cannot afford.  So, worst case, prepare to look for a new job in the near future (though that would be horrible of your family to do).[/quote]
