Guest guest Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 Hello all and a happy Easter to everyone.I had a pretty miserable day at work on Friday, but arrived home to a phone call from my case worker at Social Security advising me that my claim has been approved! WOW---only 3 months and no hoops.I want to thank everyone here for all the thorough information I received and followed to the "T". I had and furnished copies of all my tests and reports and made surebefore filing that my doctors were in agreement. I never even had to report in person but only had 1 telephone interview.You are all a great bunch of people and help me daily to cope and gain understanding about illness and grace under pressure. Lou is a daily source of encouragement with her strength and determination; Bruce, thanks forall you do to explain things for those like me who have a very limited attention span these days; Beth and Peggy for your humor and spontaneous friendship for everyone; MamaSher thanks for your plain down to earth good sense! Jack, I continue to be amazed at your kindness; and many many others from whom I learn and gain patience and hopefully wisdom.I don't post much, but wanted you all to know that you and what you do is important!P.s.---I just got the report from my overnite oximeter study and I had 272 "events" of desaturation---guess I'll soon be joining the ranks of oxygen users at night.Roxanne, 59, South Carolina 2006 Asthma/ PF 2008 IPF/ Sarcoidosis/Gerd Lady Slipper Orchid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
