I hope your case goes well and you win your claim. Hang in there and remember that your kids need you and that they are a great source for something good in your life amidst your other problems.

I pray you don't............no one should have to go through anything like this. It may be easier for you since you have an attorney and depending on what state you live in as well. I am trying to hang in there as I know my kids need me but it's so hard at times. I don't understand why SSA feels the need to keep denying me as if I am lying to them about not being able to work anymore. To hear the doctor say that was very hard on me, I've always loved to work. The job I had wasn't medium work as stated in the hearing, I was a STNA. That places a lot of pressure on you both physically and mentally. I miss being able to interact with the people I took care of and the people I worked with. I had plans to finish college but, that will never happen now. The life I once knew ended and this horrific, painful one began. I wouldn't wish what i have been through, still going through (pain and trying to get disability) and more than likely what I will continue to experience on anyone! I wish you the best of luck and truly hope you don't need it as you will be granted disability.
