9. I am so sorry, Wildewolfe.

When you have worked so hard for so long, it has to be totally devastating to lose your job and any prospects for replacing it. It is simply deplorable that there is no safety net for you.

Is there any way to fast track a new disability claim with SS since you have gone through that previously? Without the income that precluded you before, it seems you should qualify. I know another 18-month wait would be daunting, but if the time could be shortened, it would be less so.

Thank you for sharing. You are in a community with folks who care and are concerned for you and your wife (she is still that in your heart).
