Yep. I am right there with you. Sixty, disabled (the Social Security Administration says I am disabled, but they won't do anything to help me), and completely broke. Not in the modern 'down to my last $1000' broke, but the traditional 'I don't have two pennies to rub together' broke. Hell, I am now in the position where I occasionally have to decide between medications and food. I doubt I will go to the doctor again because I cannot afford it, even with this joke of an insurance policy I have.
But, one thing to hold onto is that everything will not burn. Some of it will, because we are too far gone to not have that happen (and because some of it needs to, to be honest about it, although it is not the things that the rethugs want to burn), but I want to believe that Americans won't literally stand there and watch the entire thing burn because of an outdated and unrealistic desire for 'decorum'.
'I have nothing to offer anyone.' I have said this many times in the past six or so years. However, this is an incorrect statement. We have plenty to offer others. It is just that no one wants to hear any of it.
Their loss. Not yours. Remember that.
I wish I had something more uplifting to say, but I am where you are. However, always know you have a sympathetic ear here. At least we can rot together.
