I’m so sorry! That sucks. ❤

I have observed friends going through the process to qualify for disability in the US, and it seems so challenging and soul-crushing. One good friend literally spent hours in pain on the bathroom floor every morning and the disability people tried to say that she is able to work — as if finding a job that could accommodate her illness was even possible.
