I love helping people

I am a Paralegal, and I love helping people with legal issues.

The other day I ran into a lady that I know from Cosentino's grocery haven. I was talking with her about my job, and she asked if I knew anything about SSA issues.

I took a Public Benefits Law for my hubby when I was in school (while dating)- he was just laid off and needed to collect unemployment. I helped him win an appeal and get paid to re-train for a new career field for a year and a half!

Now I am going to help my friend and my mom both collect Social Security from their ex-husbands accounts. I want to nail my dad because he's a worthless piece of shit that did only a sperm donor for our family.

I am going to start the paperwork here soon and it feels so good to help out others!

Cancer

Cancer is something that has influenced my life for the past several years. It started with my grandma virginia dying of brain cancer. then my great-uncle Jimmy dying of bone cancer, my grandpa having colon cancer that turned into stomach cancer (which took his ilfe).


3 years ago my friend Greg was diagnosed with cancer. He's been going through treatment for 3 years now. He's optomistic and getting better.

My mom was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer - it is called inflammatory breast cancer. She was diagnosed omn 2/7/07, and started chemo on 3/9/07, had a masectomy on 9/20/07, started radiation on 11/5/07. The treatments will continue, she has a very aggressive form, it spread to her lyphnodes before she started treatment.

I HATE CANCER.


I wish it would leave my mom and friends alone.

I hope that I don't have to face it, but if I had a choice, I'd trade places with my mom without a blink of an eye. I hate seeing her going through it all.


I bought a book called "My Mother's Breast" daughters facing their mother's breast cancer, it helps me understand why I feel the way that I do.
