Thank you guys for making me feel welcome! I go and see my doctor on Monday, the 7th. Last time I talked to him, he had suggested I apply for disability. I don't know how I feel about that one! I feel like such an "outcast" to society already, and if I were to go on disability, I feel like I would be labeled and feel even more worthless. Also, I know that it is EXTREMELY difficult to be approved, and I hear the wait is several months. I worry about how our finances would hold up waiting that long!
