That's a bummer. I tried to keep my job and can't remember if I was accepted before or after I lost my job. I applied (actually my husband did) while I was still employed and going back and forth to work. I just started missing months at a time. Like mentally losing chunks of time and of course not working. I'm surprised I made it to the bathroom but once you stop eating and drinking you stop going.

If you can, try to keep your job but appeal just in case. It's best to have the ball started and not need it than to start from scratch if you do. Has the new job said anything about missing days?
