Ricky applied for temporary disability benefits from the Social Security Administration in February of 2000, while recovering from surgery; he was immediately turned down.
"I put off trying to get disability for a while. I felt like I was trying to get something for nothing. Then it hit me: I have paid into that my whole life. I worked and earned that."
Ricky applied again for Social Security disability benefits almost two years ago. He has been denied twice now, and the Social Security Administration's Disability Board seems to be in no hurry to bring his case before an administrative law judge. "(My attorneys) said it could be another six months," Ricky said, "and there's no guarantee I won't be denied again."
