I was injured three years ago at work.I had back surgery on june 10,2001.I had titanium cages installed in my back.The doctor told me I'd be fine and released me back to work in november 2001.He sent me back on lite duty.The company let me work in the office.That lasted for alittle while until about the middle of january.Then they give me a hard time about having to pay me to sit in the office.They made me go out in the warehouse to work.I was still having trouble with my back and legs.I use to drive a fork truck and pull orders.Iwas one of their top workers until I was injured.I work in the shipping area for awhile,but was having alot of problems.I told the doctor that I was having weakness and severe pain in my lower back and legs.He told me not to worry just go to work.So I returned to work and did the best I could.By february 13th,2002 I just couldn't do it anymore so I got done.After several times to the doctor,he told me there was nothing else he could do.I settled with the company for a small settlement.My laywer told me where I got done on my own,thats all he could get for me.I don't think he was looking out for my best interest.Anyway what money I did get I paid child support & some studentloans.So the money was gone in no time.Well my wife had gotten a job for $8 dollars an hour to keep us going but she was let go because of a lack of work.I'm still having a hard time to walk and move around.It takes me 45 minutes to get up in the morn. We've both been trying to find a job,but its real hard when no one wants to hire you because you can't stand up for long or bend or move fast.My wifes been crying every night for the last two weeks because we have two small children.We've sold every thing that we own just trying to survive.I've applied for SSI but they told me that it will take aleast two years before I can get it.We've also tried to apply for assistance,but have been told that they don't have any money or that because I got a settlement that we don't qualify.We just don't know what to do anymore.Our two little girls 3&4 are looking that no christmas at all.Like I've said we've sold everything. Its now DECEMBER 8th and we have no money.Its killing me to think my children aren't
go to have a christmas.We don't want to lose our children.I know we're just having a hard time right now and things will get better.The only thing we haven't loss is faith.
I HATE ASKING ANYONE FOR HELP BUT AT THIS POINT IF ANYONE AT ALL KNOWS OF AWAY TO HELP US GIVE OUR CHILDREN A CHRISTMAS I WOULD BE FOREVER GREATFUL.The registration&
insurance ran out in november They'll be shuting off our phone by the end of the month if not before.SO IF ANYONE CAN HELP PLEASE CALL ME AT(913)963-4520 AND I'D LIKE TO SAY THANK-YOU SINCERELY GARY BENNETT 1275 METROPOLITAN AVENUE.KANSAS CITY,KANSAS 66103 AGAIN GOD-BLESS
