3:00Now PlayingAdrienne Wells Chapman is very much alive, but the Social Security Administration mistakenly declared her dead, and the fallout has been devastating.
The Atlanta mother has spent two months trying to reestablish her benefits, during which time she lost access to life-saving medications, food assistance and her only bank account.
She is also now facing more than $60,000 in medical bills.
"It's so much for somebody that is trying to get better, that is trying to recover, to get healthy," she said.
