I have the fortune of being in a family business started by my father so I would have income if I ever fell ill.
I haven't been able to work since Oct 2012 and feel very guilty that I continue to receive my paycheck. I think my family business would be best to hire someone to take my position.
My understanding is I cannot be receiving any pay for a period if time if I want to apply for SSDI. However, that wold mean giving up my health insurance benefits and income.
My thoughts are that I could have my family lay me off with a severance package that would give me some $$$ to get by until the SSDI came through. With short bowel and severe Crohn's, I don't think I would have much of an issue.
If anyone has applied for SSDI and knows of a good attorney in Florida who could guide me through the process-- or has any other advise, please reply. Thank you so very much!
