She intends to get her GED, but has to wait for programs that will help her get to the classes. Before she can go to classes, she needs somewhere to live. She is trying to fix that problem first. She has talked with doctors about her back problems, they are not willing to do surgery on someone as young as she is...go figure, you think they would do it because of her age? They won’t do it because of her age. I think, since I was there and heard what they said, I know better what their opinion is regarding her needs/care. Her legs shut down, because of the conversion disorder and the back issues. The conversion disorder appears when she is stressed. Sometimes her cycle can shut her legs down from the pain it causes in her back. Lots of stuff you don’t know...and btw...I’ve paid in too...consider that I have paid in for what my daughter may end up collecting.
I have seen this type of story played out so many times. Usually, the end result of bad decision making. It seems to me that you are blaming a lot of other people for your problems- the landlord, the muslim girl, the psych doctor who threw the meds,the school.
You have had medical issues for how long? You are only just now applying for help? When you were hospitalized for your medical issues, you could have requested a social worker to help you find housing , EBT, and welfare. But, you are just applyng now. Bad decision.
You let your daughter drop out of middle school ( if I can recall). Your daughter has the right to an education, and you could have requested special assistance from the school, which by law- they have to provide.She dropped out. Bad decision.
If your daughter was special needs- she could have been eligible for SS. Did you apply at that time? Probably not- bad decision.
Living in a rural area in which you are unable to obtain public transportation- bad decision.
When the psych doctor prescribes meds- take them. Because some psych issues cannot be cured by “therapy” like bipolar disorder,schizophrenia, depression. By not following advice she exacerbated her mental health condition. Bad decision.
My advice to you is start being proactive rather than reactive in the future, becaue life has a way of throwing bombs in your direction, especially when you have physical and mental health issues. I can make a one liner about prayers going your way, but I am not like that. I tell it like it is.
If I was you, I would be on the phone daily to your local social service agency requesting help in housing, welfare asssistance. Start being proactive.
