By the time she got home a half hour later, there was a message on her answering machine from the supervisor. They approved her for food stamps, a whopping $86 worth each month.
I will pray that you get the medical care you need.

I dont blam her, I will start a rucks, when we go for our appeal.

Good for you! After my accident, I ended up in a similar circumstance. Auto insurance was exhausted, yet I still had $45,000 in medical bills plus physical therapy bills not paid, and I couldn't work. I didn't get back to my job until November, and the accident was in February. (My ankle and leg were demolished.) I only applied for medical, and was told that we make $150 too much. I raised a fit, told EVERYONE I knew about what had happened, which made many acquaintances angry since they felt I 'deserved' the medical for my injuries, knowing I'd eventually get back to work. They were beefed because illegals do not contribute to these programs, yet take advantage of them all the time.

Needless to say, I eventually got approved for state medical due to the enormous medical bills, after I had paid some of them myself. We have no savings left, and the insurance payout only put a small dent in what I owed.

I'm babbling ... good luck when you go back for your appeal. Let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the prayer suggestion for koobster. May we pray one for another.

Mark 11: 25 - It is written,... "And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."
