(7,160 posts)I have 4 children at home 5 altogether . I used my savings to come home to Ohio from South Carolina to help my ailing parents in 2011.In August 2012 I fell from a ladder and messed up my back and I was told I couldn't work I applied for SSD and have been denied 3 times. In November my Snap benefits were cut by $162 There are days I don't eat or take my insulin so my kids can eat. I am a Loss Prevention Officer by Profession I have applied to every retail store within 50 miles of me nobody wants me because of my injuries. I am not an entitled bum. I worked most of my life at a few trades. I have a degree that is now worthless to me. My kids eat a lot of lentils and rice mostly brown and pinto beans and potatoes. By the end of the month, about 10 days I have to rely on my local food bank thanks to the cuts to my SNAP my kids don't deserve this scorn and I truly hate all Republicans and Tea Party people if I can call them that they are monsters who need ousted before people die My Parents both died last year 4 months apart I am still very sad over that it's a pain that hurts so deeply because had they had Healthcare they may still be alive
