 Chained CPI cuts would hurt seniors like my mother. Please stop the Chained CPI cut!

My husband Larry.  He just had his 68th birthday. He was diagnosed with Alzhiemers when he was 61.  He had to retire early. We lived on my income until I retired also at 61 in 2010 to take care of him. He was getting SS at that time.  We lived on that and savings.  As a caregiver I am home with him most of the time.  I have a respite worker that comes for 4 hours once a week.  I also rely on the help of friends.  Our children do not live near us. I am doing well and really resent it when people call me “intitled”  We have never asked for anything we didn’t feel that we earned.  I think I will need in home nursing care for him soon and cuts to medicare scare me.  He wants to stay in the home he built himself.

This is the face of my great-grandmother, who depended on Social Security and Medicare. She earned those benefits, and these benefits should NOT be cut for seniors like my great-grandmother.
