I read your post and glad to see you reaching out about your problems. I don't understand why your husband can't move out...

You deserve a big bear hug! Bless your heart.........first of all.........they always deny your first application for SS........just keep appealling........do you have an attorney? I have been on SS for 14 years........but they denied my first 3 claims. I was in an auto accident and had to have a total of 5 surgeries on my spine .......so far.........as well as my other health issues. Just don't give up on that and get an attorney to represent you. They will approve you eventually and they will have to pay you retroactive from the time you applied.......so you will get a large lump sum check.. The important thing is that you will also get Medicare which it sounds like you REALLY need that! Sending you Love, light & prayer,.......sissy

Just a quick note to say hi! We are the same age and we are both way too young to be so ill! You really have your hands full and I will pray for you. I sometimes feel like I am at the end of my rope and I am only struggling with asthma & fibromyalgia. I almost lost my husband 2 years ago to viral menningeal encephalitis, but thank GOD he made a full recovery.........I don't know what I would do without him..........we have no children............it is just the two of us. For you to have to cope with so much illness and have lost your husband as well is just heart breaking...........you must be a very strong lady........hang in there and I will keep you in my prayers. GOD BLESS YOU.
