Happy for you, Niko. Your story, and Kelly's, give me hope that I will be approved.

I completed my online application the first week of June, and had my phone interview June 13. I've been in touch with Disability Determination Services, to inform them of my three July Dr. appointments. They told me that after they request and receive those records, they may be able to make a determination.

I'm hopeful, because I worked hard on my application, and three of my doctors wrote letters to DDS, in addition to their medical records depts sending my records.

But, I don't have my head in the sand. I know that most applcations and appeals get denied, and have to go to court.

Glad that your approval finally came through.
