To help pay bills and keep me from becoming homeless. I hate having to do this again, but I have no other choice. SSI is taking it's time and in the meantime, I've exhausted any savings I had. Now I'm really desperate and every penny counts.

I was working for Titleist until covid hit and everyone was laid off in March 2020. Titleist called for me to return for work in July, first they said it was voluntary and if I didn't feel safe I could decline. I'm high risk with diabetes so I said no. Then they called me back and said it wasn't voluntary for me and they wanted me back that week. I got a note from my Dr saying I'm out until further notice. So Titleist said if I can't return to work, then I need to apply for short term disability through their insurance. I applied and it was a joke and they denied me in November. Titleist called me and said if you don't come back tomorrow you will be terminated. Well I didn't go back. In the meantime I've had covid twice and my health has just been going downhill. The neuropathy in my feet and legs is extremely painful. I have a lot of trouble sleeping because the pain is so bad. I can't walk far or stand for long periods of time.

My heart is now acting up, I have angina and had 2 stents put in and I'm on 16 meds and 2 insulins. Thank god Massachusetts has great healthcare.

I have 2 Dr's that have written letters saying I cannot and should not be working. I filed for disability 2 and half years ago. It went before a judge, and I was denied. I have completely exhausted my saving account. I've cancelled cable & my internet and I've been going to the food banks for food.

I never expected this to happen to me. I've worked all my life and paid into SS and now that I need it, they are giving me a hard time. I'm very close to just selling everything I own and saying screw it all. It's a good thing I have Jonas to keep me fighting. Now my car is at the mechanics & I have to bring Jonas to the vet for blood work because he has hypothyroid.
Thank You
Bob
