Kelley, have you made a written request for a further extension, due to your injury? Is there a way to accommodate you with your reading issues? Perhaps, you could explore classes in other fields that you might enjoy as well--art classes would be one example. It would get you back in the classroom (a good thing) and you could also audit a class in your preferred field.

You're married and your husband works if I remember correctly? If so, I don't think you'll qualify for SSI.
