I received a CHECK from the US Treasury last week, payment in full for damages in my Vaccine Injury Compensation case!!
The case was decided in my favor, but I ended up settling on the damages amount as otherwise it would have been early 2009 at least before this was resolved, if then. I just couldn't afford to wait any longer.
However, the amount should be enough to cover my medical needs as long as I'm careful. Paid back most of our out-of-pocket expenses (some 50,000) and another 50,000 to Hahnemann for the ketamine treatment. We'll be able to help the girls with college (they're expected to help with scholarships and job earnings). It's a relief to know we won't lose our business or home due to my medical bills.
What a long, strange road it's been - thanks for the help, humor and companionship along the way. I couldn't have made it through this battle if not for the people here!
