as Kia said, it's in God's hands now, he knows exactly what we need and the situation at present time. I also had hard time ecepting and still do like so many others that I am not the same and can no longer do the things I used to be able to do. It's hard to accept, I think my family does a better job at that than I do. I know it's easier said than done, but try not to stress as you know that can just make the pain worse.
Believing with you for good things!

Best of luck - I hope all goes well!! .... Please keep us updated - I might be going through the same thing soon as well... I am trying to "fight" the symptoms.. but I feel like I am in a losing battle.. I'll be praying for you.
Who did you have for a judge? I had the worse one there in GR so my outcome for myself isn't looking to good. I looked on line and mine only approved 10 out to 67. Hopefully I'll be one of the 10 :) I left the hearing feeling good also because I know I told the truth and it is hard to admit that we can no longer work. Please let me know when you hear anything. It''s been 2 wks for me and I haven't heard anything yet. Wishing you the best. Linda :)
I hear ya. Work is much more than the paycheck. I finally became old enough to not be embarrassed by not working. I just say I'm retired now. That seems acceptable in this culture.
You may--I hope-- be young enough to regain much of your health. But in the short term, you really need the time to recover, w/o stress.
OK, here's a benefit to being disabled: I get to play with my pets as much as I want. How many people can say that?!

Hopefully within 2 weeks but may take up to 30 days for decision, in the mail of course, ugh....I did not want to go this route. I cry when I think about not goin back to my good payin job. I don't know if ill ever come to terms with the fact that I can't work. I can't even do housework. Its very heartbreakin and disappointing.....and drepressing
I hope it goes your way; you have suffered enough. When do you get a decision?
Granted, collecting that minuscule check is the goal for some people, but most of us have dignity and want & need to work. After 16 years, I haven't discovered anything redeeming in being disabled. If anyone knows any, please tell me.
