Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hi all, I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about SS disability. I lost my initial request and contacted our Sen. Saxby Chambliss. This morning I received a call from his office and informed me I was awarded the claim as of Wednesday. I was really elated to hear the news and would advise others to contact your congressman and representatives. Thank you Congressman Chambliss and members of the breathe support group for your support and prayers. Joe     JOE/JOANIE JOE 60 IPF1/2008 GRIFFIN, GA.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Joe Congratulations....bet I know who you'll be voting for. Its so nice to find representatives helping their constituents. I knew a congressman years ago that the other party never even opposed. The reason was he had the most incredible office for helping people and resolving problems. Seems everyone had either directly benefitted or had family or friends who had. I know if I lived where you do, Chambliss would have just earned my vote and I don't even know what party or what views. > > Hi all, > I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about SS disability.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 YOU BET!!!! This afternoon I received a deposit from SSDI. Boy was that fast. Just recently there was an article in the Atlanta Journal that there was around10,000 cases in Ga. That were held up due to the bureaucracy !!!! Fyi he is a republican and I did vote for him when he ran for senator. Last night when on the conference call, I mentioned that I purchased a power inverter that I can now use my house concentrator in my truck. Beth suggested I e-mail the info. It was purchased from Harbor Freight in Macon, Ga., but can be purchased on line from Harbor Freight. It is item # 93761 and was $89.99. You will need to wire up to your car or truck and the material will be around $70-$90, depending on how far you need to run the wires. It is a 1200 watt with a 3200 watt surge. It has an automatic shut off if the voltage goes too high or too low. I wired up temporarily and it works great. If I can be of help please holler.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Joe I've considered a power inverter. Now, since I use liquid and carry a reservoir when I travel I really don't need one. But, I'm amazed more people don't use them. You can run any small appliance off one. > > > > Hi all, > > I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about SS disability. > I > > lost my initial request and contacted our Sen.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Pink Joyce Well, as a liquid user, I get a reservoir for my vehicle when I travel. I have it carried into the hotels and use it at night and refill my Marathon from it for day. Now, of course, one could use a concentrator in the hotel if they normally did at home. Depending on the length of the trip (time wise) I get either a 25 pound or 50 pound reservoir (50 and 100 pounds including the reservoir when full). The sit in the seat strapped in by the seat belt. If you want you can hook directly to it while driving but I just use my Marathon. Also, depending on the length of trip I make arrangements to get it refilled periodically while on the trip. While you can have them come to your hotel or the home where you're visiting, I normally have just driven to a supplier and had it filled. I know it seems like it's a pain to handle. However, thats underestimating the help available. I've just found people so friendly and willing to help get it in and out, even when i was at a small motel in West Texas which had no luggage carts or staff. The desk person (I think daughter of owner) told the maids and two of them met me and did it. In the past I was always someone to hesitate to ask for any help but never once has anyone made me feel like I was imposing. > > > > > > Hi all, > > > I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about SS > disability. > > I > > > lost my initial request and contacted our Sen.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Pink Joyce Well, not sure what size your R2D2 is......typical home reservoir is 100 pounds, some 75 and some 144. These are 50 or 25 so smaller. My oxygen supplier brings it when I'm going to travel and puts it in my vehicle. They don't charge for it. > > > > > > > > Hi all, > > > > I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about SS > > disability. > > > I > > > > lost my initial request and contacted our Sen.
