Over the last four years, Mr. Mophett states that he has had back, neck and nasal cavity repair surgery, a second major hear attack, cardio vascular disease, diagnosed with Meniers Disease and diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (Renal Failure) Stage 3A. Meniers Disease causes a brain fog state so he states he forgets things easily and has trouble remembering to do things unless reminded often. He states he is unable to work full-time and is taking a year off to get healthier. He is applying for disability on doctors recommendation. He was requested to supply supporting documentation, but it has not been received.
