I am currently on disability and have been since 9/2009. It can be a difficult decision but when you are not able to work, it is a wonderful option. I began the process online in September, 2009 and then had a mastectomy which delayed the completion of the paperwork and approval. I just recently went on Medi-Medi or Medicare-Medical and that was a bit scary. If you need any info, I can offer what I know.
I understand the reason to get out of bed, as sometimes it seems I am waiting for my time to be up, but, I try to take it one day at a time, even on the bad days. My reason to get up is that I take care of my Mom who will be 92 in April and has severe osteoporosis.
