My name is Andrea..I am 59 years old and if you had ever alluded to the fact that I could end up writing this after a career, high I>Q. and modeling offers, I would have fallen down laughing. Sorry, not being very articulate but the mood is leaving quickly. After raising my daughter alone buying a small home & saving constantly I find myself wiped out after 5 years of disability. (chronic pain & panic attacks). A so-called boyfriend stays with me & chips in $400-450/mon. A narcissitic, sadist nightmare. I've just been informed I could possibly need false teeth after years of paying thousands in dental bills & an mva which knocked out front teeth at 14 & a "fantastic" lawyer who procured less than &3,000 for me. I was advised 2 implants would cost me over 10,000. Ludicrous but not humorous. I'm looking for help and venting. This is not merely vanity but a phobia of false teeth I've had since childhood;before the car accident. Oh yes, at 14 I was a passenger on a movie date with someone I didn't care for but was trying to be kind. Is there ANY help out there? Someone who cares?
I want to know why it is that a person can be on disability, getting SSDI, has NO insurance because wife was laid off, but can NOT get Medical Assistance. This person also has $1400.00 a month in prescriptions, has been recently told his heart is failing and there is nothing they can do. The county assistance that they get is horrible. They never answer their phone, never have they received a call back from the messages left, and they have the balls to make several mistakes on their application and turn them down. How are they supposed to right a wrong that someone else is doing if they wont give them the time of day? And just for clairity, this is a County in WI and starts with an M. Im afraid if I put the name down I will somehow be hunted down and retaliated on. Paaaaathetic. The wolves are at their door wanting payment on thier medical bills. Mayo Clinic gives them an application to see if they can forgive some of their bill, but they want ALOT of private info, from 3 months ago, which has nothing to do with what is going on know. Besides that the last time they filled out one of the applications, the husband was not working, waiting to hear from disability and they had less money then they have now and they still turned them down. So why bother. It makes a person, who has been givin a limited time to live, just give up. Our government does NOT care, and has not for a very long time. Unlike our government, we can not turn around anytime we want and give ourselves a raise, on top of the top of the line insurance they have. We are becoming a third world country and fast. In order to get any kind of help you have to be living in a card board box, or be laying face down in the the street. It is very frustrating, when all I can do is watch as this family suffers through.

I am a disabled male with a desire to start a small business, I am noticing that evrywhere I go looking for a grant it always says free until you start the application then they want you cc number for something. I have even gone back to school and gotten my degree in Business Management trying to give myself an edge. I wish when they say free the really meant free.
