My husband has been out of work for a little over a year , he is on very strong pain meds and will be having back surgery. He also has an aortic aneurysm and a few other things. He has seen a medical doctor and three orto doctors who all say that he , even with surgery will not work again. He gets a small disability check thru his employer. However , when he applied for Social Security he was denied. According to the letter, although is is deemed disabled by his physicians, there team of medical professionals has determined he is not disabled. Are they telling me that 4 very fine doctors are wrong. And their team of professionals consists of nurses and physicians assistants. We now have a lawyer who says it is a waiting game. They do this to push people to give up and go back to work or hope that the terminally ill will die before they have to pay out. This is so wrong. My husband has worked 40 years and never asked for help, he has paid for this benefit many years. Any thoughts?
