That's very sad. I'm sure your brother thought it was the last resort to end his suffering. There are so many people that have scammed and abused the system that good deserving people are not getting the assistance the programs were designed for. There are even Dr's that help people scam the system. I know someone who had a liver transplant. The Gov't. would pay her disability and supply all the medications and anti-rejection drugs she needed. Once she was feeling better she went back to work as a bartender. Didn't make a lot of money but enjoyed it and lived life to the fullest. The Gov't. in their infinite wisdom would only pay for the absolutely required medications she needed while she worked. Her medications were over $2000/month and she had to pay about $1200 out of her own pocket! How stupid is that!!! On severe disability, the Gov't. paid her around $900/month and the $2000 for her meds. When she went back to work, the Gov't. only paid her $800 for meds. She was saving the Gov't. $10,800 a year by working but the bulk of her income went to pay for the rest of her meds. That's what's wrong with Gov't. programs! Dave
