I Have a Question

just wondered how others survived without income since ive been doing it almost 5 yrs. I used to work in resorts but had to leave cause of two hip implants and a knee surgery. they refused to accomodate me and wouldnt let me do sit down work. not after some dumb nurse wrote a work release saying i was ready to go back into food service and the only thing i was ready for was another surgery, a knee one this time. so i left. then i had several jobs that didnt work out, some were discriminating. anyways, i havent been able to get ssi, welfare money or another job that i could keep the last 5 yrs. I tried to get ssi for 4 yrs, im done with them, i'll sleep in a park bench before i ask them for help again. I do have hud which helps and i get food stamps and medicaid but no cash, i still need toilet paper and to pay rent. my friend will help but my siblings wont and one cant and my parents are gone, i dont have some hubby to take care of me either or kids. so how am i supposed to do this? I cant live on nothing forever. people wont hire me, i cant even babysit cause noone will even hire me for that even though i dont have a record, right now im going to school, at least the grants help but its like getting paid 3 times a yr but maybe school might train me for work too. i cant stay in school forever either and ive got 4 yrs before i can apply for old age pension, any suggestions?
