Let me tell you a story....I lost my health, lost my career, lost my house, have no income, no phone, no car (because I cant afford either) had to move into a camper, and now live 27 miles from a town. I got an attorney from day one, that was October 2007 and to this date, Im still waiting for SSD. The campground I live in, has about 2 dozen year around residents now, and most had similar stories to tell. So please dont feel alone. There are many like us, existing. Be greatful for the small things. I count my blessings everyday, I have my hubby and my cats. I have to wash clothes by hand and ration toilet paper. Soap and toilet paper are luxury items. Hang in there with the rest of us, things will eventually get better, it just takes time. (((((((((((hugs))))))))
