Well I just wanted to ask those of you who are on disability what
sorts of troubles you had getting it.

I applied on January 11, 1991, and just recently (june 12,1991) was
denied. They seemed to agree that I had everything that I said I
had, but they just plainly said it wasn't serious enough to keep me
from working.

Is this common, and should I appeal. How about representation. I
have a good friend that is a lawyer. She says she will help me
without charging except for expenses. I hate to take her time if
its either pointless to appeal, or if reprensentation is not
needed.

Thanks for your help to a poor confused soul.
