Your family will be included in my prayers.
Regarding disability, go for it. You should not be dragging yourself into work in pain like that. It is a long battle and a struggle, but I cannot tell you how BAD my quality of life was those last months I was working, it was horrendously horrible and I should have gotten myself on disability before I had to go through that. It was some sort of stubborn thing I had with myself, and it was stupid because while I don't feel too much better, I am not suffering as I was. It is sooooooooooo much nicer when you feel ill to not feel like you are letting other people down, wondering who is taking your place or doing your job incorrectly, and wondering how you will make expenses with short paychecks. That did not mean we have not suffered financially, but there is no amount of money worth all that physical suffering.
