Hello

Hi everyone, I know I keep saying I'm going to stay in touch, but the days are all running together.  I wanted to get on here with good news. (At least I feel it is)  I was approved for my disability on Aug 18th.  After fighting for it for 6 yrs. It is a relief.  It was a flustrating journey, but I'm so grateful that I finally was listened to.  I had personal letters written by my pastor and my friends and it seemed to help.  I know this won't cure the hurt I feel every day, but at least it will take some financial stress off my husband and I.  I pray that each and everyone of you are doing well.  Hope to get back on soon.

  Hi Linnielou Congratulations on winning disability....I know it is not easy for those with this DX to get....and it can take  2 years or more with appeals etc....

I know it is not always to get on line as much as we all would like but it was good hearing from you again and I am so happy for you.
