Guest guest Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 Hi Kim: All State Governments have a program called Vocational Rehabilitation. They are there to get disabled/sick persons back to work. In that process, if you need medical help they will obtain it for you. I wrote them a letter explaining my morbid obesity was causing me to lose a lot of work time. I said I support myself and want to continue to work, please help me before a have to go on disability and become a vegetable. And they approved me within 4 months. I fought for over 2 years with my health insurance (BC/BS of FL) and eventually lost. Voc. Rehab was my last hope, I was at the point of no return. I was contemplating committing suicide. But, thank God, Voc Rehab came through for me. Hope this will help in any way. If you want a copy of the letter I sent I'll send it to you!
