The social security administration routinely commits the de facto crime of MURDER FOR MONEY: IT IS CHEAPER TO KILL THE CHRONICALLY ILL THAN TO PROVIDE THEM MEDICAL ASSISTANCE WHICH COULD PREVENT THEIR DEATHS. At least you have medical coverage, from what I can derive from your post. In Louisiana people cannot get MEDICAID unless they qualify for SSI; and getting SSI is almost impossible. Since your medical documentation is superior to that of many cases, you should be able to get legal representation. If you qualify for legal aid, you could get an attorney thru that group at no charge; although I would not recommend the idiots who operate that government-funded "service" where I live.

I suggest that you fill out an on-line form at www.johnwalsh.tv and post what response you get, if any, on this "thread." It's a long shot that the John Walsh show will feature your story, but even an inquiry into your case from them will make the social security bureaucrats jump so high their heads will be lodged in the ceiling.

Get an attorney- there are provisions for paying them out of your backpay benefits-you don't get benefits, they don't get paid. And you can have a friend or relative assist you by acting as a liason between you and the attorney-a lot of it can be handled by telephone and the mail-I never met my attorney in person until my hearing!(and yes I won my case)If you can supply additional documentation, like letters from friends, neighbors, your spiritual advisor,whomever you can get to put pen to paper to describe your difficulties,and pass them along to your attorney to be forwarded to the SSA.Anyone else who's been involved with you on a technical basis that might be able to supply a report?
But above all get an attorney!

My response:

I knew it!

There it is again - - the "John Walsh" suggestion!

Pamela, can you recommend anything that has to do with "reality" and not some television show?

Are you enamored by John Walsh, or something?

Thanks for your reply. Re: post though, I don't have any medical coverage. I have absolutely no benefits. I'm going to take your advice about John Walsh TV. Thanks again. I'll let you know what happens.
