My first attempt at getting Disability benefits was denied. I appealed that decision – and got denied again. The last part of the process involves seeing a Disability Judge (who hopefully is in a good mood that day.).
My Disability hearing was scheduled a few days before Thanksgiving. I was very anxious that the judge would deny my claim simply because she had to work during Thanksgiving week. Writing haiku helps me cope with stress.
