Dear President Barack Obama:
I am 53 years old and disable since 2008 due to breast cancer. I've worked all my life payed my taxes and now I am unable to work due to other health problems. My husband was a Marine who served this country for 18 years very proudly, it was his life. We had three children together. His name was Louis. I lost him in 2007 due to massive lung cancer which he developed during his time in the services. Then I was diagnosed with cancer . I applied for disablity and was denied four times because of my age. I am not 62, the age required to receive benefits. I am unemployed. I have no medical because I have no small babies, so I don't qualify for aid to help me pay for my medication which cost's about 400.00 a month which I must take for five years.
No means of income to help me live. It's been really hard during these hard economy times. I don't understand how social security can deny me help. If I can go to work I would. I also have a broken rib that can't be healed so it's hard for me to do the simple task to make my day. I've had lawyers on this since 2008 and that didn't help me at all so it's been really hard to except the way Social Security Administration regulations work.
I am stuck in the middle with no were to turn for help. I'm afraid that I may not see 62 years old. I'm alone, scared with no places to call my own and money to live a normal life. All I need is to get some of what I've pay on all my life for working and paying taxes and medical which now they are denying me.
PLEASE HELP ME? What can I do? I feel like I have no purpose, as if I lived for whom? I worry about my children which are grown but how can I assure them that they wouldn't have to go begging to bury me because I can't even afford a simple life Insurances.
I live in California. My kids live in North Carolina and the youngest live in Pennsylvania. All these things matters are not good for my health. I am in need of the government's help to be able to exist. Today you are visiting George Clooney. I wish I can meet you in person. I believe in you as leader for our county because you are for the people, a TRUE leader with a heart and understanding of our civil rights to live comfortably because we work so hard all our lives. I pray you get another term cause the battle has only just started. Our rights and our lives are mostly judged by how we chose to be happy or limited by age, health and so on. Again I hope to hear from you in respond to my concern.
Thank You.
Sincerely,
Hopelessly lost with no which way to go. Iris. Read more about Caught in the Middle
