Congratulations. that is awesome!! I'm sorry about the pain, but so glad things are looking better for you.
Keep in touch Trudy In Virginia where every day is beautiful during this season.. unfortunately it does mean that winter is not far off. but I'm not going to think about that now.. I'll deal with winter when it comes.. :-) _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 30, 2007 10:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; TMIC-list@eskimo.com Subject: [TMIC] SSDI Hi Everyone, I haven't been able to participate too much lately, because I still have trouble sitting at the computer for more than a few minutes (due to pain), but I have to share my news with you: I just got a letter from SSA saying that the judge has made a 'Fully Favorable' decision in my SSDI case! There's still some red tape before I actually see any money, but after 2 1/2 years with no income, what's a few more months! At least I'm making progress here, after 2 SSDI denials (one telling me that my TM wouldn't last as long as 12 months, even though at the time I'd already had it for 2 years!) If anyone's looking for a good SSDI attorney, I've been really happy with mine. And if he didn't before, he now knows a bit about TM! :) He's the brother of a friend of mine and is licensed to practice in all 50 states (I live in Hawaii; he lives in Texas). If you're interested, his name is Jonathon Healy; you can email him at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks everyone, for all your input that has helped me in 'surviving' this challenge, as well as for information that helped to make my case, etc. Love, Sally
