I am offering a few more suggestions, as helping folks like you was something I did for a living. Depending on what state you live in, you might qualify for assistance programs because you are considered a "senior", i.e., "over 60." These types of assistance could be medical, legal, financial, housing, health care, home health care, etc. Check with your local Area on Aging (Federal regions of senior program coordination) and your local Community Action Agency. Also any local senior center might also be able to hook you up to those who know the ropes so to speak about what might be available in your state. I have never heard of a housing authority refusing to get a person who had declared bankruptcy on Section 8 or subsidized housing lists. Also, you may qualify to apply to "senior designated" housing rather than just housing for those on disability. These units are more plentiful in my state, specific to seniors, and as a senior you have protection under what is called "Adult Protective Services" through the state Department of Health and Area on Aging. As for medical care and medications, there are Public Health Clinics that provide free medical care and help with getting medications. Try to contact one and see if they can assist you. There is LOTS of help out there if you are over 60. At least in my state. Good luck and God Bless.... Mickey-I was a medical social worker working with older adults (60+) in Ohio for over 20 years.
