most state are called 'at will states' meaning she can fire you when ever she wants and does NOT have to give you a reason or advance warning..

sorry.. go for unemployment.. apply for food stamps and WIC..

As the previous poster wrote I would definitely file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Unfortunately, because of your condition it will be very difficult to become reemployed now. Food stamps, etc... will be your only option to help you out until you can return to work. The best of luck to you.
