I'm afraid it was my fault. I believe I did fail to certify on Sunday, October 2nd. I call that "Human Error." They might call it "grounds for terminating benefits due to negligence." I can't believe this doesn't happen from time to time to even diligent folks. I would like to believe that there is some "Mercy" in the system for a "lapse" inadvertently made during a time of high stress. I had had to bring my boyfriend to the emergency room due to his choking. He had emergency endoscopy. Other stressors were going on.
I think I have to tell myself that, if they cut off my benefits, it's not the end of the world and not a reason to start having self-destructive thinking out of despair. This is not sufficient reason to go into despair. (I am afraid of being without income, losing my apartment and becoming homeless.
I am grateful for the responses. Thank you both.
