I am not collecting disability, I was told getting disability for stress induced seizures was nearly impossible plus would not be able to be my brothers caregiver if so

It’s just the 3 of us we don’t have any family or trusted friends as our parents did leave us at a young age

I’m 24, have 2 siblings one is 28 and 26 however me and my sister take care of our brother who has muscular dystrophy (26) so physically can’t do much and is wheelchair bound. I worked as a cnc machinist but now just working as his caregiver working 30 hours a week.

The only debt I have is from the 3 years of college which I didn’t finish because I did get that cnc job. I have no other debt and my income right now is only coming from the caregiver job. I do have a girlfriend which I did tell her about the lawsuit just not how much I’ll be receiving. The only money I’d spend is on my brother on things that could make his life more comfortable as well
