Dew,I know that your SSDI was granted on 01/2009. I don't know about Oklahoma however here in Wisconsin there are always adds on T.V. about people with medicaid or someone that does have SSDI.That the mobility store will give you a scooter for free and do all paper work for you also. On top of all of this if medicaid or medicare turns you down they (meaning the store) Will give you one for free! I have seen this all over the place. I just wanted to give you one more option to look into. I just can not believe your pm Dr. said no because you might become to dependent I do think it is a smart thing to do by what I think Hope4thebest said by writing down a list of what you do day by day! Take Care Dew! Always Breezy
