I have Crohn's disease, and recently was admitted to the hospital for 10 days for being sick with Crohn's. I have been out of work for almost a month now, submitted work a form from the doctor excusing my absence from work and giving a date I should be able to return to work. Now my Dr. has written me out for another month, and does not know if I will be able to return to work even then. The company I work for is too small for me to be covered by FMLA. I am really scared and do not know what to do if this company decides to let me go. I live in a fire at will state where they can fire me without reason, from what I understand. I am a single mother and am freaking about where income will come from if they let me go. Is there any type of disability I can get in the state of NC? From what I understand social security will only cover you if you are going to be disabled for a year or more, which I will not. Options please!!!
