for raising money.
Get a job. You can buy lots of food and instacart as well as uber with the money you earn at a job.
There is absolutely no valid reason for not having employment at this stage. The disability thing is no excuse. There are people working jobs right now from wheelchairs or without eyesight, some have even bigger challenges, and yet they work in order to support themselves. If they can do it, I believe you can do it. Your mother needs assistance from her grown adult son, she does not need a dependent.

I only have traditional Medicare XanaDUer2 Aug 19 #24

I'm not sure about your specifics, debm55... Harker Aug 19 #25

I was wondering why we are paying for a supplemental plan. debm55 Aug 19 #28

I think medicare pays 80%, that's why people need a supplement questionseverything Aug 19 #26
