I am a 38 year old who was diagnosed with a debilitating illness that has gotten worse over the past few years causing me to be unable to work in the restaurant industry due to the physical demands that are expected. I am stuck trying to apply for disability or find other work that I can do from home, but I have no experience in anything else outside of the restaurant industry. I have already contacted my state Vocational Rehabilitation Office and they have told me that my limitations are too severe for them to be able to help me, which is what I thought they were there for in the first place, but I guess not.

I am a hard working person by nature and I am a fast learner as well. I didn’t even go to culinary school to earn my way into the restaurant industry, I learned as I went and got good at what I did, so I know I can learn to do something else and be just as successful. My limitations make it very difficult to be able to commit to an office job 8 hours a day 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Some days I have difficulty just making it to the bathroom in the morning without crawling on the floor, let alone make it into an office, so I really need to find something that gives me the freedom to work in the comfort of my own home. All I need is a chance to prove myself and be able to provide for myself and not have to rely on disability for the rest of my life.
