ss Disability always denies first time applicants unless it’s mental or drugs.

A member of my Sunday School class was on the Heart Transplant list and could not work if he had to. The church kept his family afloat the best it could. It took 4 tries and a lawyer to get the Disability through.

After his heart transplant and the doctor cleared him to return to work at a desk job, he went back to work and off Disability.

Now if you were an ILLEGAL you’d get it in a heartbeat.

That’s just not true. I’ve heard there’s a “short list” of things that, if you have those things, you get approved right off the bat. I know that I got approved in two months (cancer)

I applaud the man.

Wearing ‘uniboots’, wearing a pneumatic compression boot over that, for two hours a day, and labeled with congestive heart failure, really opens up the chance to increase my reading library.
