And also she had to wait like a year just to get on disability and go to a bunch of specialists (that isn't free obvs) just to convince her hearing that she needed disability since it's way harder to do so if it isn't a physical disability. And apparently she was super lucky that her first hearing decided in her favor cause almost everyone loses their first hearing and then has to wait another year for another hearing. And all the while you can't have a job so if you can't live a year to two years with no job then you just are forced to get a job and give up on disability. I mean mother has been saving money her whole adult life for retirement and it's all gone now cause she had to burn through it while waiting on disability.
