Who works full time and use wheelchair?

I am looking for work and decided to try to go back to full time. I have secondary progression MS. I have difficulty walking use crutches and scooter, anything to help me really. Walk very slow and with it balance shit. Everyone advises me to find part-time which is did for 3 years before being let go last year I. December. It’s good but I am in debt and need money and also I think it would be good to get back working full time and be more involved in a business. Don’t know I would loose my pension but I think am only turning 40 in November would rather have money so I’m not soo stressed cause have no money. Just want to put my health on the back burner for a few years.

@lorag , I know what you mean about wanting a full-time job. We all want to turn back the clock and do what we used to do, as much as possible, for whatever reason. I think you will need the help of your fellow Australian members regarding the pension. Or perhaps these guys can help :- https://mswa.org.au/ Good luck with the job.

Thanks, I know if I loose the pension they hold it for 2 years, and people at the agency said if I had to reapply I would get it cause it’s not like I’m faking just have to go through all the applications and interview etc. I have gone for two interview and applied for feels like 100 jobs but nothing but a lot of people here are finding it tuff, so it’s not just me or my condition cause I don’t even mention my MS in my application. I am applying for both full time and part time. It’s just getting hard.
