<prompt> Human: For starters, thank you for reading and no need to write in laymans terms. TLDR; My dad is physically and mentally unfit to get himself on government aid and my siblings have given me the job of helping my Dad get on a plethora of government assistance plans. I need help doing so. My father is 67 years old and has tons of mental and physical issues. He has diabetes in addition to a wide range of mental issues we think he could have. Hes never been professionally evaluated, but we think he has bi-polar disorder and is a paranoid schizophrenic. He also has a tough time speaking due to his old age and not being a native speaker. I am the only one in the world that can decipher his jumbled language most of the time. He gets overwhelmed very easily and has a hard time remembering a lot of things. He currently has zero income and its been that way for years. We think that he is being sent money from offshore relatives but no one can be certain. We are about to sell the house next month because he cannot afford to live in it any more. My parents are divorced and my dad has no legal custody of me. We live in Wisconsin. I am willing to impersonate him on the phone with people. He is totally find with it since I have to do it for him all the time. Task 1: Get him a free phone service. He has a phone already so we just need a sim card with service. Task 2: Get him on food stampsTask 3: Figure out what type of health insurance he has. Ive asked him for the paperwork of his insurance and he doesnt know what Im talking about so I need a way of finding out. He definitely has something I just dont know what. Task 4: Get him on Social Security if hes not on it already. I dont know how I would find out since its the same deal with the health insurance. Task 5: Get him professionally evaluated for mental illness. Also find out what government assistance is available to those who are disabled mentally. Task 6: Get assistance in buying pet food. He has a cat which is one of the few things keeping him relatively sane and needs help caring for him.Task 7: get him surgery for his arm. His bicep sags on one arm and he can barely use it. Tasks 1-4 are really the essential ones. I just need to know where to start and what I need. This is pretty difficult in addition to school so thats why I am asking for so much helpThank you very much for those who read. Please ask any more follow-up questions you have. By the way, this is a throwaway account because this post contains a lot of personal information. Thanks again. EDIT: thanks everyone for reading and replying. I will reply after school. Edit 2: He currently is on Medicaid and gets social security every month.Edit 3: Im not sure I can reply to all of you, but I can assure you that i have read all the comments.  <response>: Dont have any advice but just want to say good luck and keep your head up! Inspiring read. Great thing youre doing.
