Pulmonary Fibrosis a Suffocating Disease..
This is a second plea to serve my fellow disabled people.. Especially the one%u2019s that are looking to be disabled. Or are in the process of being disabled. I really think that social security administration should hire qualified personnel, personnel that are caring compassioned people after all they are dealing with the sick, and disabled people. They deserve the respect and consecration, not because they are ill, because it%u2019s what everyone should be entitled to here in America.
I suffer from Pulmonary fibrosis, which is a terminal incapacitating disease. Because of the lack of experience of the social security personnel and doctors I was forced to wait 3 years to be disabled. Besides the fact that this disease should be moved to the automatic disabled list. Just like certain cancers. This is a devastating disease and if all who suffer must wait to go in front of a judge to be finally approved for disability , no wonder disabled Americans are dieing before even receiving there first check. I personally know of one.
I was force twice to see doctors who%u2019s offices were substandard, I went to one with no AC here in Florida, and another Pulmonary specialist who had water damage in his office and there was mold on the walls.. We are entitles to get the best qualified doctors to screen us for our disability. These doctors seemed that they weren%u2019t even licensed.
Please conceder sending a fact finder to audit the SSA and see what can be done for the millions who are counting on fair quality, and most important compassionate personnel to qualify the true disabled Americans. We just asked to be treated with respect, and understanding. We need caring employees that are properly trained to deal with the many problems and issues of the disabled. Not to be treated like if we were all scammer, guilty until proven innocent
Prominent People who have died from Pulmonary Fibrosis
The wind whispers through the trees
As the leaves gently float to the ground.
Their beauty so vibrant one can%u2019t help but see
Yet their fall so gentle it makes not a sound.
And so it is with you, who have passed away
Your lives a wondrous tapestry to behold
And yet your voices silenced along the way
But your silence reverberates with a sad echo!
Leaving behind emptiness that no one can fill
Mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, Aunts, Uncles, lovers, friends.
Your fight was one we all can relate to; your pain was oh so real.
It%u2019s in your memory we vow to fight for help, for these illnesses to end.
We feel your pain, your anguish and heartache
You%u2019re struggles were more than any one person should bear.
May your names remain here, leaving an impact only you can make.
Gone.. but never forgotten.. as long as I am here!
With love

I was dignosed with pulmonary fibrosis 2 yrs ago
I am glad to see that someone is addressing this disease. I realize that disability from Social Security is hard to get. That is due to the crack down that Ronald Reagan made during his administration. I can remember when I first got lupus. Very few people were aware of the dibilitating nature of this disease. I know people who have waited for years to just be heard bya social security doctor and these people have had to hire legal council with money they don't have. This means when and if they do get the benefits, the attorney will take a portion of it for his services. If we can fund and overfund an illegal war, surely we can help our own people who suffer from debilitating diseases.
My husband was stricken with idiopathic membranous nephrophy (kidney disease) with a prognosis of kidney failure, or no known treatment. We were sent to general practioners who had no idea what they were looking at or for. Not until we demanded an exam by a nephrologist (kidney disease specialist) was he able to get benefits. Every person who has applied to SS has been sent to doctor's offices that no person would enter for treatment and their exams are so deficient there are no words to explain their incompetence. SS needs competent medical evaluators to be able to recognize what a disease is and send that patient to a specialist in that area of medicine to get a fair evaluation of a patient's condition. SS needs a complete overhaul.
