HI Mel,
I was talking about SSI and how to apply for that. So after you apply and go through all that you have to wait 2 yrs to get help (a check) after you are finally accepted. This is exactly why Micheal Moore made Sicko! To bring to the for front what sick people are going through in this country! I have no idea what people are expected to live on during those 2 yrs while they are waiting for their Big check!
My husband injured his back at work last week and hopefully will get workman's comp for the 4 days he's missed work and they'll pay for his dr. bills. So we were hit with a double whammy......me with no work check and Mike's check will be small this pay period.
Right now my health insurance is covering at 100% since I've maxed out all my copays and coinsurance expenses. I have to call tomorrow and make sure everything is A-OK with them paying for these infusions. Roxie
