Even though I hadn't worked the last 4 years, I was eligible for this tax credit, which included 2010 to 2012. I was also approved for AISH (disability income) last month with back pay to December 2010. I didn't know about the disability tax credit until I read about it in this post! Thank you!
I'm still tired a lot; I wear a hernia belt, which is a little uncomfortable; it takes a toll on my back and shoulders because it's working overtime to support me (my stomach muscles are literally gone). I'm doing okay—my sons help when they are able—but just because I look okay doesn't mean I'm okay! - lol

I've never heard of a "Disability Tax Credit." Can you tell me about it?
Thanks, Beg

Hi there BEG, this disability tax credit is a Revenue Canada credit. I don't know if there is something similar in the US, but I'm sure if you went on the IRS site and tried a search, you might come up with something similar. Good luck, Ed

Hello and welcome to meet an ostomate. The site charges a fee only for Full Membership, you can still interact with members here via the forums and the public chat room with free membership. The site charges a fee since it has expenses ... as do all websites, people have to spend their time to run and maintain the site, buy bandwith, servers, and other things. I am a life member here, it cost me 56$....about the price of 1 cup of coffee a week for a year. I think that is a very small charge for such a big reward. In my opinion this site is the best ostomy-related web site on the net. I hope you will stick around awhile and see for yourself. I do not own or am I in any manner connected to this site except as a member. regards. mmsh

Living with an ostomy doesn’t mean you have to live with stoma fluid leakage or skin irritation.

Thanks, I would not have thought of that direction.
- Been asked to take the doctor to court due to negligence but also heard of an Ont. lady who lost - had a great lawyer.
- I told my doctor when I ran into her during my hospital stay how I wasn't impressed... how some tests I asked for... she did not request could have saved me from months in the hospital.
- W.e.
- Thanks to this site, I am able to check out other channels - didn't even think of AISH until a social worker @ hosp recommended it and had proper forms..!!
Thanks again, peeps.
- Went for a nice longer walk today, then a short nap!! - lol
