Very Frustrated... need some suggestions

[mom483]

I'll keep it brief. Three years ago, I got sick and lost most of my vision. I was already on disability. I did regain a lot of my vision back but I still cannot drive.

I HATE IT!!!!

I can't go where I want to go or when I want to go. I need to make arrangements Every. Time.

I use a medicaid cab for doctor's appointments which isn't bad. I use the paratransit when I can. But both of those have to be scheduled in advance and there are limitations. Medicaid Cab is strictly for medical appointments. While I can use the paratransit for most destinations, I am limited by what I can bring with me (only 2 bags allowed when shopping.)

Let's say I want to get something from home depot (or similar store) I have to have it delivered - IF it is available for delivery. Plus of course everything costs more buying online and having it delivered.

Then, of course, I am limited on what I can buy because I am on disability. After bills, and before groceries, I have about$800 per month.

After groceries I have about$400/month.

I HATE IT!!!

and i don't know what to do. I am sick and tired of being stuck with nothing. I don't have friends that are willing to help and family is worse.

My freedom and independence was ripped away from me when I got sick. All because 4 doctors refused to give me antibiotics. They nearly killed me and there is nothing i can do. They will never be held accountable and I am stuck in this house with no one to rely on. I WANT MY LIFE BACK!!!!!

I understand the frustration, but I don't know how to help.

Thank you. I'm just so angry . I don't think anyone can help. But I appreciate your concern.

AHA! hang onto that anger, it will be invaluable to help you through. And you have friends here, even if only online. It's a good step, and if there is something sensitive, there is the PM .
