ABOUT ME:

Granny to three adorable munchkins.  Wife to a goofy hubby.  Mom to three furry kids (dogs).  Computer geek for over 20 years.  Adopted and I just recently found my birthmother and siblings.  We had a great reunion.

 Was illegally fired from my job April 2007.  Been searching for a job that will also accommodate my disabilities but no positive responses after putting in 80 applications.

 I've applied for SSDI and have reached the level of waiting to be heard by the ALJ.  The DENIED letters acknowledged my disabilities but think an employer will accommodate me.  I'd like them to find one.

I love to do oil painting, playing the piano, and reading.  Lately all I can do is read though.  Carpal tunnel syndrome has set in.

We have NO income so we have NO insurance.  We are living off our savings and the food bank and other minor supports.
