Sigh... My aunt just moved away from town so now no rides other than the bus system or maybe taxi or Lyft or something... Today got our money early but weather is poopy so don't want to walk to the store and busses don't run on the weekend.

Mails been depressing me too... More medical expenses denied coverage... I've been having problems ever since they decided to give me Medicare too... Keep getting letters Medicare is denying coverage, etc... Keep getting thousands of dollars in medical bills... Of course someone that only gets SSI can't pay something like that.

On top of that a local job turned me down... I still don't get enough food stamps to get healthy meals throughout the month. I even had the hospital call Adult Protective Services after telling a social worker what was going on... He exausted his efforts trying to help us and gave us one bag of food, some free bus tickets then said there's nothing more he can do. My husband isn't qualified to get help in the home because he still can do lots of things by himself.

I tried talking to my mental health caseworker and she's going to try to find a good walker so he don't fall down all the time. I talked about going to work and her idea was Goodwill but I think Goodwill factory is for rather low functioning people...

They decided to give you Medicare.....yet are denying you. Maybe it’s time for a chat with the social worker.

Goodwill pays low wages, and is for “low-functioning” people.

How about that job in Lansing?

When I was just on Medicaid everything was fine... I qualified for Medicare because of my past University job that was considered government but those jobs don't qualify you for SSDI... Which would have been handy lol. My insurance has been screwed up ever since. :x

On Monday I'm supposed to go to a job service orientation to help me find a job hopefully.

u really do have an overwhelming amount of daily stress in ur life. ppl break over less. i broke over less. i dont have any useful info (because ya, i dont know how ur country functions that good), and all i can offer is meager verbal consolation, i really wish u get over that hill. life is full of them, isnt it... but as i told ppl many times here, even a polar night comes to a dawn... be well, as u can
