@horsemaths@mastodon.social I can never let my daughter see this. She would demand we get her one for a pet ASAP.

@valondar@mastodon.social Pretty typical for people with autoimmune disorders unless you have serious Lupus or MS. I know a lot of people who were denied who had a diagnosis. You know who they auto approve? Anyone who gets pancreatic cancer (like my wife) because they don;t expect you to live long enough to receive benefits. Too bad for them she survived, even if chemo gave her TBI. One more reason to have #BasicIncome and #MedicareForAll

@valondar@mastodon.social I want to forget the 90s. That's when my autoimmune disorder manifested and I was constantly seeing doctors who gave me a bazillion different diagnoses, which led to me not being accepted as disabled because the board decided without a definitive diagnosis I wasn't sick enough to be approved for disability. Thisn despite numerous hospitalizations. So sorry.
