I know a man 53 who is receiving DSS. but, he has special needs. I am looking to see if there is some kind of in home help he can get, or find an advocate for him. This man is 54 weighs 110 lbs. has diabetes's, has to have his legs amputated, within the near future. A nurse comes to take blood from a port, that they say is clogged, and to have someone come to the house...it will cost $1000.00. He lives in Illinois, and I cannot believe, we can not find help for this man. Any suggestions.

Hello, I started having excessive eye squinting two years ago, which escalated to uncontrolled complete closure of the eyes. Diagnosed as Blepharospams which has been very debilitating for me. My daughter has to drive me every where and see to it that I can navigate my way around stores, appointments, etc because they can bee ok then suddenly close and I can't open them without pulling them open with my fingers. I run into things in the house, can't watch tv or be on the computer much at all and have with it, very sensitivity to light. No more yard work which I love to do.

Hi, my name is Bob, I have been on SS for about 8 years, no problem being termed, tollatly disable by their and my Doctors. Heres the short story; I was injured in an accident when I was 12, I am now 63. At that time I had 3 years of sugury on my hip.I recover to some degree, but have never walked with out pain. For most of my life, I simply accepted it and did the best I could. Never could work a regular job or a 8 hr day but I made it through much of my life.

I was diagnosed with MS in 2000, i have continued to work. I have reached a point in my life were is becoming extremely difficult to work. I have a job now but recently i have been using FMLA absences and about possible go on FMLA for on extended amount of time. I am a patient with the Multiple Sclerosis center of Atlanta, how do apply and what is my chance of receiving SSDI ?

I.am receiving SSI now, but will be re-evaluated in August of next year. I have recently had total hip replacement 4 weeks ago, and will have to have the other one done in 2 months. Will I still be eligible for SSI?
