Hi, my name is Jamie. I am a husband and father to 2 amazing young adults, and I have an amazing wife who works her tail off. I love them so much I would do anything for them, which is why I am on here asking for help.

I was injured in 2018 and had to go through workers' compensation for a year. I was told by a doctor to apply for disability since it takes so long. Well, then COVID-19 happened, and government employees retired early or didn't go back because of the virus, so it just delayed everything for us for 2 years. Then I got denied after having my second neck surgery, but I have had a lawyer since the beginning, so we appealed it, and now we are still waiting.

I have had six surgeries since 2019, three of them on my neck, plus multiple injections in my back and ablations. But anyway, just looking for some help. My daughter graduates this year. I have worked as a cable lineman for 20 plus years, so I was a very hard worker and just don't know what to do anymore. Thank you.
