Why should you work? Well...how about to make money so that you can pay for a house or flat to live in. How about to make money so that you can buy food to eat. How about to make money so that you can buy clothing so that you don't have to walk around naked. How about to make money so you can pay for medical care.

Now, if you have enough savings...then don't work. But I think there is no correlation at all between having a heart attack and not working. No fry ups? Me either. Little beer? Me too. No smokes? Me too. No life? Nope, not me. Of course, my life never revolved around fry ups, beer, smokes, and crappy food.

I would say you should develop some healthy interests so that you can get off the damn meds as soon as possible. You'll feel a hell of alot better not being on beta blockers and ACE inhibitors, thats for sure. Hopefully those are short term meds while things heal and while your blood pressure comes down thru healthy eating...and maybe at some point you can flush the meds!

Do you mean you should get off work to make up for the fact you need to take medicines and can't guzzle lard and beer any more?

What about diabetics and all the other medical conditions people have? Even people in wheelchairs work jobs. Why not?

I should think it would be good for your pride and self-esteem to carry on working if possible. Would also be good to keep your weight down - very important for a heart attack victim.

Why should I support you?
Do you HAVE to work? No. But you shouldn't be able to get any public assistance either.
The lifestyle restrictions you have been given are to prolong a healthy life for you. Same with the medications. (The meds you are on aren't THAT drastic - lots of people take those and more and get up and go to work each day.)
If your doctor has cleared you to go back to work, then it's safe for you to go. Going back may be a little frightening, but sitting around all the time isn't going to do you any good either.

properly, it really shows she is in a severe state. If she is in an entire blown coma, then medical doctors maximum possibly brought about it. because it might want to positioned her body in a protective state, and help decrease any added rigidity on her heart, or different organs that would want to have suffered from lack of blood in the course of the attack. counting on the severity of the attack, and how a lot heart tissue harm changed into honestly performed, it is possibly a 50/50 probability at this element of her surviving it. It fairly relies upon on which heart tissue has suffered. human beings live on heart assaults each and every of the time, yet often because they get dealt with on the first signal of one, as antagonistic to when you give way and end respiratory. best of success my pal. i visit wish for her.

Usually because we desire to live a comfortable lifestyle. But, that does not mean you have to work. You could apply for Social Security, I believe if you qualify you will be able to get about $600. a month.

If you are able to do that you can get subsidized housing, which you will have to pay about 30% of that to housing. $180.00

That leaves you with $420. You can go to food banks to supplement your food costs which leaves you with $105.00 a week spending money.

It is not a choice I would make, but we are all different. Good luck to you.

Anything has to be better than sitting at home watching mind numbing daytime tv. If you can work then you should. Don't just look at the negative sides of the situation, you have been lucky and so you should take the opportunity to go out and enjoy life.

no fryups + little beer + no cigerettes DOESN'T EQUAL no life
fryups + beer + cigarettes EQUALS no life

You don't have to work if you don't want to.

I suppose you have resources to support yourself.

Living on public resources mean having to justify not being ABLE to work---not a matter of not wanting to work or feeling deserving of not working.

Sorry that you have this life-style change and having to give up previous pleasures. Glad that you survived and can enjoy what pleasures you do have.

It depends if your heart attack can be diagnosed as a complete disability. If it is, you may qualify for Social Security & Medicare benefits. If it isn't, you need to keep earning a living somehow.
