[quote=Anonymous]With regard to SSI/SSDI I have been going back and forth in my mind whether to apply and am interested in what others have done. DD, 21, has a progressive disease for which some treatment is available but she is not otherwise medically stable enough yet to receive it. School and work have been out of the question for a couple of years but we are hopeful we can get her to a place where she might be able to do two courses at a local college next semester. My hesitation in applying for SSI/SSDI is that we have upper middle class income, although DH retired this year, lowering it. I am conflicted--having her own source of income would give her some independence as she is totally dependent on us but at the same time should people like us be taking advantage of such government programs?
