Am on disability, never drew SSI, never drew Medicare until last year. Five years after filling finally got SS as we lived on my wife's pay. Two strokes, heart attack and a toe removed and I finally got it so it damn near k**ls me with these one's with single problems. Had the first stroke and went back to work after three months out. We know what it's like with no money.

I have a disabled brother that gets SSI ($710) per month. He aslo has medicaid which covers his Drs visits and 7 prescriptions per month...he has 13 prescriptions (he has to pay the full price for the other 6). He has a light bill, water bill,gas for his car to go back & forth to the Dr.(he usually has no money to go anywhere else) and he gets $37 per month in food stamps...he is so grateful to get them. Of course we help him financially, but what if we couldn't?
