Re: [TMIC] SSDI - Doc
lori, thanks. This info is very close to what Doc had written. I seem to remember some of the #'s. I'm going to post it to facebook. I think some of the people applying for SSDI would find it valuable. Thanks again. Cindy Lori Biehler wrote: = You can find the updated nomenclature on the SSDI site in the Blue Book.

Re: [TMIC] SSDI - Doc
The link Barbara gave is the one I was thinking of. I even had a copy of it in my 5 to 10 year old notebook. The highlighted info is what gave me hope when I applied. It also has a statement about two extremities being impaired.

Re: [TMIC] SSDI - Doc
Thanks Pat and Barbara for getting back to me. I used Doc's instructions along with the section of the disability law # and qualified first time for SSDI. I was hoping to find it to share with some of the facebook people. Doc had it nailed. Gosh, I bet it's been at least 10 years or more since he passed away. I don't think the TMIC is being maintained any longer. It's available for use but think some fees started to pop up for archiving the emails. I'm just guessing. I just tossed my paperwork about a month ago, after all I think 10 years was long enough to hold on to it. Happy New Year to everyone.

It seems like there was something about having two limbs that are effected. I'll look too, however, I know you have so better chance of finding it than I do.

Re: [TMIC] SSDI - Doc
There used to be - I was poking around the site just now and couldn't find it. A man named Roger (I can't remember his last name) who went by Doc on here before he passed away made up a list of very specific tips for applying. There is a section on the forum for dealing with disability, and I found this link there - not sure if it is Doc's but it looks helpful: http://myelitis.org/resources/disabilityapp.htm Something else that's odd - I don't see any link to the TMIC on the TMA web site. There is a link for individual state support groups and the message board, or forum, at myelitis.org/forum, but not this list. Barbara H.

I also will always keep this website and I check it a couple of times a day. I love this bunch and feel there are still quite a few “listening in”.Any messages sent get read.

(A few of you have faithfully sent happy birthdays on TMIC to those celebrating each month as a whole, and I have appreciated that.) 3) Since all mail that goes through the TMIC is archived online, I have wondered if it is a problem to have lists of names and e-mails there, if that increases anyone's spam content. 4) I have been sending out individual birthday greetings to everyone on the list, and more and more of them are returned to me because the address is no longer active. 5) For those who are no longer on the TMIC, I don't know if they welcome the birthday greetings or if they don't want me to "bug" them any more.
