Guest guest Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Martha, That is really not right that your family is wanting to make claims on your SSDI. That money is to secure YOUR future and to protect YOU. Please don't let your family feel you have to give any of your disability check over to them, particularly since they tell you that you are a burden to them. That is just terrible for you to feel you are a burden to them. I am glad that you have the support of your boyfriend and his family though. Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Martha I'm sorry to hear your family isn't supportive...and asking you for money you desperately need is just wrong. I hope you told them politely no you need to eat and pay bills thank you. I am happy to hear your boyfriend and his family have stood by you thru this. My husbands family is my rock...in my darkest moments just after diagnosis my mother in law would call me every night when she knew the kids were in bed and my husband wasn't home from work yet. Many nights I would just cry the entire time she was on the phone with me but she would just talk and talk so I wouldn't be alone. She's one wonderful lady. Hang in there and I hope your family changes their tune. Amy Re: update Thanks guys. Things with my family have been off. I have an older sister that don't talk to me any more; and the onther ones are (feeling like) they are waiting for me to get my retro-check from ssdi. My dad hinted at borrowing money, my sister just came out and ask and my other sister wants me to buy my parnets plane ticket so they can go to her graduation and still I will have to buy for an motel for two to go myself. So right now I don't have them for support plus they all don't want to hear about it. i was told I was being a burden on my family. I do still have my rock , my boyfriend of 10 years , his mom and little brother and my best friend. But don't see or talk much to my friend she going to school and work. I think i have to much time to think. Well again thanks.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Coco I had a crown put on recently, but without the additional problems you had and that was bad enough. I hope you start feeling better soon. Have a Happy Holiday. Anita Update I was getting prepped for a crown and the tooth broke below the gum so I had to have some surgery done on my gum. Got incredibly sore so now I am on Penicillin and Vicodin. Hopefully I will be better soon! ~Coco~ WW & TOPS Flex Points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Anita, I am so sorry to read of all the troubles you had with your teeth. Are they feeling any better? My tooth was part of the reason I have been off program. Hurt so bad that if I did eat had to be soft foods and they were not always things good for me. A lot of soup which had a lot of sodium too. Ugh! I sure hope things are on the mend for you. Great job on getting the part time job too. What are you doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Coco My tooth really doesn't hurt. It occassionally throbs and doesn't feel right. IT kinda feels loose, but they could just be in my mind. I'm probably going to call the dentist on Monday if I get the chance. Part time job is also dispatching. Thanks Anita Re: Update Anita, I am so sorry to read of all the troubles you had with your teeth. Are they feeling any better? My tooth was part of the reason I have been off program.
