I feel my freedom being encroached on while on disability and I’m afraid my family will put me in a nursing home. I’ve been waking up on time for chemo but I’m nervous about getting to work on time.
I told the disability office that I’m better but told them about my stage 4 colon cancer. One of the questions asks whether my health is getting better or worse, on this disability review that they left me. I’m afraid of getting to work on time but I might be able to work I just dunno if I could keep the job and get my chemo done too.
Can anyone help me? I’m very scared to work but I do want to, mostly I’m afraid of being taken by a kangaroo court to the state hospital while my family has that justification. I wake up on time for chemo but I don’t feel my responsibility all the way yet.
I think you should say your health is worse because it is. But whether or not you quit working is up to you. I don’t know how you are managing to get to work while on chemo though. I’ve seen a couple others do it and I was amazed. I’ve been on a gentle chemo and that made it tough on me. I missed work a lot due to an upset stomach. So I’m pretty impressed by you to manage at all.
It’s not that easy for me to give up on work. At one point I wanted to be an accountant for a nanotech company I had a lot of ambition in college and I know how to play the stock market "knowing"that all I need is an extra 200 dollars to get started in options trading looms over my head.
