Ypsilanti, MI
I am unemployed at 58 years old, uninsured and my IRA funds have tanked due to the stock market. I can't sell my home nor find a job due to the economy in Michigan (and most of the rest of the country). I volunteer as much as possible but that doesn't pay my bills. My unemployment has run out and they're asking for reimbursement of past unemployment funds I've received. I haven't had a complete physical exam in years though I exercise and stay in as good shape as possible.
