Review the rights of disabled individuals that spend years fighting the process of being recognized as disabled by law.

Created by J.S. on April 28, 2012

We are the people, whether we are disabled or not, we have rights. There are individuals that are diagnosed each year with disorders that the government still barely recognizes as a disabling disorder forcing us to fight for years to be approved. When we complain about the pain we suffer and the other symptoms that drag us down we are called liars or said we exaggerate and yet when we choose instead to focus on new issues only randomly mentioning the pain and symptoms we suffer regularly we are demeaned for not saying more. We have Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or other syndromes that aren't always 'Seen' by the naked eye but felt severely for us. We have a right to be believed and want a reform in place that helps us. We shouldn't have to fight 10 yrs and still told no
