Well, this morning has not been good for me physically and emotionally, so I may vent through your misery too, if I may.
I believe there's a special place in HELL for SOME adjusters, HRs, Dr.s & lawyers who do hurt and injured people like it sounds like they treated you and I have experienced. Really, I believe that.
It's a shattering thing to discover ugly in other people who have the authority to make the situation easier, not harder on an already pressed to the max situation. I thoroughly didn't appreciate paying for that kind of treatment and I do want to get beyond it.
So often we do get knocked down, but I'm getting back up (slowly) to fight back... and fight I will.
I don't get to do a lot directly with SSD but you can find out a lot online or by calling or visiting the SSA.
I have heard, that in July, Medicare recipients who are involved in litigation for future medicals will have to set aside a portion, a good portion, for future medical benefits. This poses a problem with settlements and benefits. Don't know all the details but the change is coming July 2009, along with other changes related to SSD & Medicare benefits. I'm sure they are going to violate the sick and injured too.

When I worked I made $600 a month. My UC that was not disputed is $70 a week.
I just can not heal from the second w/c injury enough to go back and find something part time. I had been in a hostile work environment and for three months it escalated to the point they wanted to make it so miserable I would quit.
I did not do anything wrong and just broke from having a anxiety/panic disorder that they played on.
I thought after a few months away and counseling I would be OK, I am not. I need safe people and advocates to perform task, medications, and high cost for counseling and medications.
I feel that the employer destroyed me emotionally, and I need help to get back to a quality of life again. The employer put me at physical risk on more then two occasions by safety breaches they created, broke rules and did not provide memoes of trainings, meetings, or acknowledge me.
HR was the person working pt time with me and she wanted my position for her bf. IT was horriffic. I watched this done to two other employess and as soon as HR found out I was on disability she made my work day beyound miserable, it was unbearable.
I made good money for part time, half days 3-4 days a week.
I just am courious as I am applying for medical W/C to pay bills, what would happen if I am not able to work and no longer eligiable to receive UC, and am put on W/C?
I really need the medical part to regain my passion, motavation, secure, and be strong. I use to be in law enforcement...these two women have me that I can not even leave the house for long or without someone going with me or meeting me.
It reminds me when I was in an abusive marriage how I felt and needed to rebuild.
Thanks for any thoughts
