This is mainly just a prayer request for my mother. She rarely ever complains about anything but she posted this on Facebook earlier.
"I don't vent very often, but I need to right now.....most everyone knows that I have been fighting cancer for 10 years, my last surgery in November 2010 left me with a trach in my throat. My airway is so damaged that they say that this trach will be for the rest of my life. I have worked for the MCBOE since 1998, haven't worked since my surgery, but love my job. . I don't have many sick days left so I thought I better start checking on different options. Went to the social security office to check on a few things,
here is what they said. My disability income would be $750.00 per month, BUT no insurance for 24 months? Why do (most) people go on disability, because they have a medical condition that prevents them from working.......I can get insurance through the MCBOE for $500.00 per month for just me, no one else in my family. My retirement from the board would be $450.00 per month which would be eaten up by paying for my own insurance for two years. Now I know why people go on welfare and stay on it forever!!!!!
What to do, what to do, what to do................ God is my strong tower."
I ask mainly for the prayer that God restores her faith. After 10 years of cancer (as well as being told your trachea was only temporary and should be out in less than 6 months) with it just seeming to get worse anyone's faith would dwindle. Whatever else you feel lead to pray for would be great to! Thank you so much and God Bless! Love my mom and dad they have been the best earthly parents I could ask for!
