Navigating a new world
SO, my disability application is in. We are waiting to hear that it has been rejected. My mother says we can count on it the first time through the process.
Enter the disability lawyer for the second time through the process, and as many more times through until I am approved.
What I have learned I can request is disability, suplimental income and, this is the interesting one, my husband to be paid by medicare/Medicade to be my 24X7 caregiver, since he is a lilcensed nurse. How weird, but it makes sense. He just has to keep his license up to date. Well, we can do that.
So the world of social security disability is no longer looking quite so bad to me. I think I am actually starting to warm up to the idea, especially as things in the office become more stressful than I am inclined to deal with.
I mentioned in the last blog that the office is starting to try to divest themselves of me. It will be a slow process, I can promise them that - as long as it takes me to have a "plan b" in place. Of course, once that plan is in place, then I have no problem helping them reach that little goal for themselves.
