A suggestion

Quote From: flwantout

Living on one income with a family is very hard.  I know I did that very thing when I raised 3 children that are now adults experiencing the same problems.  That is why I am in the financial shape I am in today.  All monies had to go to raising the children and one grandchild without government help. 

Being female 60 divorced and on minimal disability is definitely a challenge.  I rent a room and that is all I have.  A part-time job is out of the question due to surgeries needed (after car accident that was not my fault)  and other physical problems.   I have been on disability 1 Year and you can't get Medicare for 2 years and they say I make to much for Medicaid. Any suggestions?   

I am pretty confident that you would qualify for  the Medicaid Spenddown Program.  The spenddown may be very high, but if you have a catastrophic illness, then you would be protected from a financial disaster.  I would inquire specifically about this program.
