In reply to the discussion: Get a F@#KING Job Grandma!!! [View all]So, where is your medical degree from, and you know it's still unethical for you to treat family members, right?
On a serious note, and giving you the benefit of the doubt you don't deserve, do you have any idea whatsoever how thorough the screening is to qualify for Social Security Disability? Just because you don't think your sister is deserving of the princely sum of $760 a month to keep her body and soul together doesn't mean she isn't qualified for it. During the time I worked in disability law, claimants had to go through the tortures of the damned to secure a medical opinion that would withstand the beady-eyed scrutiny of a vocational expert, the willingness of an administrative law judge to substitute his own opinion for that of a medical professional, and the steely indifference of a federal judge who couldn't be bothered to follow the law and the facts.
Unless you're a trained medical professional who has conducted a thorough examination of the claimant, I'm confident in saying that you don't know what you're talking about.
