Then there's my sister's tale with Alabama disability and Social Security. But that's a long, ugly story. I don't like either of them nor think they (as an organization) care much about who they are serving. If she didn't have the brains and guts, and a family and the money to back her up, she'd be sunk. Just another blind person barely getting by on a pittance and begging for scraps. Instead she has graduated from Grad school with a 4.0, aced her comps, and has people lined up to hire her after she completes her internship. Amazingly, this is not what Disability or SS wanted. The fight has been unbelievable to me. I can get worn out with my sister sometimes, but she had plenty to be crazy about dealing with them. And a heck of a lot of gumption to do it.
