Welcome Aaron to hell on earth...First off Bummer knees is from your state so she can help you with state questions about Regs....she is also a wealth of info on different programs geared to help children in your state.....Next you have to bite the bullet and call your morgage co and anyone you have a loan with and let them know what is going on.......most of them will work with you to help out and keep you current and some you may have disabilty insurance on to make those payments that you didnt know of thats always a blessing........check to see if you are able to get foodstamps and utility assistance thru your state or federal programs....many churches also help with utilities and food....Call your congressman this is a proactive thing on your part you can do your post above is quite detailed send a copy of it to your state congressman and Representitives...asking for thier help in getting your benefits started so you dont become homeless while you wait.......send also a letter from your doc or copies of your med records with this so they dont have to wait till they hear back from your doc.....You will be amazed at just knowing that your congressman is on board and asking questions puts a fire in the IC as they dont like anyone looking over their shoulders......And most important get a copy of all your med records so far and get copies of new visits and keep them with you....when you are sent to another doc another make a copy of them and take them with you......I always have a copy with me even tho I have settled just in case of a car accident so any ER doc has up to dates on me...now is also the time to take stock of what is most important to you and get rid of everthing else....
Now as I was also in the giving part of the charity business....do not go to any place asking for help smelling of cigs or alcohol or carring a cell phone....we always used a point system to help people and those 3 things take away from you...being clean and sober always helps and telling the truth....take your post above it is very to the point.....good luck and come back often this place is a god send....also try the off topics part it is a place to laugh and make friends that understand what you are going thru.....as you most likely have found all your old friends have disappeared.......again welcome we love it here
