This is National Stroke Awarness Month

When Facing a Disability - You Need an Advocate
On May 11, 1989, President George Bush created and signed into law, a Presidential Proclamation naming the month of May as National Stroke Awareness month.  In doing so, the President encouraged and designated a special time to create public interest and awareness of this life changing, challenging, and debilitating disease. 
According to the American Heart Association’s Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics (updated for 2011), “the estimated total cost (including health expenditures and lost productivity) from heart disease and strokes, in the United States is higher than that for any other diagnostic group.  According to the stats, over 700,000 people have succumb to a stroke, but less than half, have a fatal end.
So what happens to the hundreds of thousands of people who live, recover, and survive?
Whether you have suffered a heart attack, a minor stroke, or are suffering from any other disability, your life changes, and many feel, for the first time, like a victim; so vulnerable with nowhere to turn.   They may need disability benefits, but are hesitant and even afraid to pursue this course.  That is why you need an Advocate to represent you.
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) – You’ve Earned It
What you don’t know about disability benefits, can really hurt you financially.  The average person tends to believe that social security benefits are strictly for their retirement.  Others may be hesitant to apply for any kind of disability insurance as they are totally unaware of their eligibility, and end up not applying for the very funds they need to sustain them at this crucial time. This type of reasoning has prevented many Americans from applying for the very help they so desperately require.  The fact is, that SSDI is funded by FICA tax deductions that Americans contribute to, through their paychecks.  This automatically earns them the right to apply for a benefit that they have already contributed to, throughout their years of employment.
