Rave of the Day for May 29, 2008:
I got this from the Social Security Disability Coalition, which is included on my Links list. A woman was shot five times by her husband, then denied Social Security benefits!
Politics As Usual
It annoys me some of the comments on this story, complaining that people with fibromyalgia are eligible for SSDI. They say these people can garden, clean house and do other physical activities, which technically would make them ineligible under Social Security's own rules. But they fail to acknowledge that some of us CANNOT do those things or work, and THAT is why we qualify.
