Heya,

I'd be willing to be dollars to doughnuts that if someone goes
back for each month from the last ten years you wouldn't have been
near the top poster for any of all those months. In fact those who
were here can easily remember that Kathi's tagline named her the #1
poster. If I knew how to do it I'd do the runs for ya to show that.

I'll be glad to sign an affidavit saying that I've outposted ya
and I've been on SSDI the whole time. I had SSDI b4 I ever found
NG's.

Tho' I'm not old enuff yet they quit doing reviews because I
wasn't expected to improve and goll-eeee I haven't.

MIE = medical improvement expected. Review usually within 6-18 months.

MIP= medical improvement possible. Review scheduled for 3 years,

MINE = medical improvement not expected. Review scheduled for 7 years.

So if ya need it ya have my e-mail and I'll have hubby fax it if
it will help.

Hello all.
I know it's been ages since I've posted. I have been off of work
for a year now and even though I have all the time in the world, I
never seem to have enough time to do anything. I don't know how it
works that way but it does. I'm still waiting on my work comp
hearing. I hired a lawyer and he's used up $2600 "preparing" for my
hearing. If I don't hurry up and get to the hearing he'll break me.
I have also been waiting for my Social Security hearing and because
I've been off for a year my retirement pay just dropped by $800 a
month. They cover for one year while waiting for you to get the
Social Security. I'll have to pay that money back as soon as I get
the SS so it was more like a loan in the first place. The worst
part about waiting around for hearings is that you can't go anywhere
for too long in the meantime or sure as hell the hearing will pop up
while you're gone. I have gone to see my folks in Arizona a couple
times and hope to get out of here for a week or so this month just
to keep from going stir crazy. My lawyer said he would call me if
the hearing gets scheduled. Of course that service will probably
cost me $150.

I'd like to say I'll keep track of the group but the way things have
been going I never know. I see so many names that have been around
for years and notice that the advice and support they give is still
the greatest, not to mention the friendships that grow out of a
group like this. I hope everybody is doing well and is able to have
a good doctor that understands what's up. I have taken a lot of
information from this group over the years into work comp hearings
to support my case. They do pay attention these days where as in the
earlier days they wouldn't listen to anything. The power of the
internet speaks volumes. But be careful! They also have tracked my
internet usage and tried to argue that my "ability" to surf the net
for hours proves that I am "able" enough to work a full 8 hour day.
whether I was surfing the net for hours or not means nothing. Their
accusation is all it takes to place doubt on my abilites. When I
obtained my files for my lawyer (a pile over 4 feet high!!!) there
were pages upon pages of my entries in this newsgroup as well as my
other internet activities. They are building their case on this
very thing. I guess that means if you can type on your computer for
anything more than a few lines a day, then you must be "able" to
work full time. They went all the way back to 1996! Let a word to
the wise be sufficient.

I'll try and keep in touch. Don't let the man get you down.
