I was really lucky Don.....while I was waiting for 3 years for SSDI approval, we also had my husband's income. Things were tight, but we were never really worried about losing the house or putting food on the table.

There have been many, many stories on here like your's.....of people suffering devastating financial loss while waiting for SSDI approval. SSDI is supposed to save the disabled from such losses, but the delays and denials (because there are so many false claims being made) make getting timely financial help very difficult.

I'm sorry for what you are going through.
