I don't know how SSI or Medicare works so I can't help you there.

All I can offer is to call each of your creditors (credit card, utility company, cellphone carrier) and work out payment plans with them. They are very flexible as long as their customer contacts them and asks for payment arrangements.
Thanks, cielpur. I don't really need advice. I have done already what you are suggesting, and appreciate the suggestion again. I was just posting in hopes of finding others who are in a similar situation and can simply offer support and understanding of how tough it is.
