update on dh

[chickabator]

he will be going to the dr. in about 3 hours. He lost his job now cause he is not able to do the work anymore so we will also be making a trip to the unemployment office today. It is really sad he has worked for them for almost 18 years now. this means no insurance for him now. and we still don't know what is wrong with him other than the TB infection. The dr. told him that he shouldn't have any of the symptoms of the active TB cause his is not active but he does I think alot of it is his heart he is soooo weak. and gets winded very easy. hopefully we will find out today

Most employers offer a disability insurance when you start work with them, did your get that? Or apply for regular disability now and the unemployment.

Prayers sent.

he goes monday and applies for the unemployment. right now we are figting to get his retirement and the vacation time he has built up . they owe him that. then his paycheck they held him behind. no where he works doesn't have the disability option. we will be fine. I know that God will make a way.

I am sorry but unemployment is not a benefit you get for being sick, disabled, or just not able to work....you MUST be able and available to look for work and work then you can claim for your weekly benefit if you do those things each week.

I would suggest going to your local DSHS/ welfare office for him.....and start to apply for GAU benefits this pertains to some kind of medical issue and you qualify if not able to work you may need doctors statements also. Although keep in mind if you are legally married your money and his benefits maybe affected by that I am not sure. Oh also if due any large some of money from work might disqualify him also so I would ask not tell for now so you are better informed about the qualifications and rules for these financial assist programs.

I also believe that the DSHS/welfare office also will start to file for disability also.....but I would make sure if not contact social security administration also.

I am so sorry to hear he is not in good health....I wish you both the best.
