I want to thank everyone who took the time to read my posts. That worker at the food stamp office was just plain mean and doesn't care if my grandson gets a gift for Christmas or not and I've been so worried about what I'm going to do for Christmas. Since I've never had to ask for help, I had no idea how to go about getting him on a list of some sort and she refused to tell me. He is 11 years old and understands we don't have any money, but I wanted to get him some kind of a gift.
My husband worked for 15 years at his first job when he was laid off from it. He worked 20 years at his second job when they down-sized. He had Spinal Meningitis when he was a baby and then had Polio when he was a small child. He's had a lot of pain in his back and legs in the past few years and was seeing a doctor when he lost his job and insurance. I had back surgery several years ago but the pain never did go away. I can sit for a little while and stand/walk for a little while. I have been walking down the road just a little bit at a time for months to pick up cans to sell, and made enough to buy a heater but didn't have anything left for Christmas.
Thank you for reading and Merry Christmas. I have to go to the library to get on the computer so I will check back in as soon as I can get there.
