But yeah, anyway, that confused me...
I did not reply to CLN’s post because I was confused. My stepdad (heart condition) gets SSDI and he had a good job for over twenty + years. He also receives retirement from that employer each month. My mother works full-time and they have not had any problems with SSA.
