My experience is that everyone has a limit of how much help they are willing to provide...and no matter how hard you might try...your needs are likely to extend beyond that of which even family are… read more

Earning Money While On Disability
A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

How do you earn money without loosing critical disability benefits and Medicare ? So, in many ways, I am very lucky. When I started needing attendant care, I did the math and there was no way I could earn enough money, keep working, and pay for attendant care. The programs in my state that cover attendant care very strictly require an individual have less than $2,000 in assets total (including such things as gold teeth, burial plots, etc) and not be employed. If not for my father's support… read more

Clipping Fingernails
A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

I am interested to find out what everyone does regarding having their fingernails clipped. I struggle with this because I need help doing them, and it's hard for someone to do them. I often end up with cuts on my fingers, and I do not like getting them cut. I always have long fingernails because of this, LOL. Any good best practices that anyone has come up with? I can't stand this. Did I mention that?!

Have you considered having them use one of those electric jobbies that basically files them down? Less risk of injury.

Medicare, Medicaid, Medicare Advantage,Medicare Special Needs Plans,glasses...???
A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

One day last week I asked my attendant as usual to clean my eye glasses before putting them on me. They were still really foggy...as an artist , I really rely on my vision, so he cleaned them again . Still foggy, tried glass cleaner, lens cleaner etc. After an argument in which I insisted that I was not in fact going blind, I went to the eye glass store and discovered that I need new glasses...the scratch guard wore off my glasses...now everything is foggy. I thought scratch guard was… read more
