I just talked to a client who is living off disability. |
|
His medical benefits has been cut, his SSD is being cut, he cannot walk due to his disability & now cannot afford the gas to drive. But at the end of our conversation he said "I see the people on the TV & realize how lucky I am." He made me cry.

1. Being "cut" as in none? |
|
If so, tell him to get a disability lawyer to have them reinstated.

2. Not cut completely, just the amount of his benefits. |
|
I did give him some contact info on attorneys that might be able to help him. I really felt like he just needed to vent this morning. With everything he is dealing with he can still show such concern for others. Striking comparison between him & certain others (bush).

4. Depending on the state he lives in, |
|
he may not be able to get them reinstated. Missouri, for example.
