Congrats Cindi,
Like LitLove said...it is so sad we have to congratulate each other on getting SSD. Sad but a reality in our life for sure. Now you may be ready for the "Big Leagues" like me lol...riding the handicapped bus. What a treat that is here in PA. I think I am doing good and have lots of strength but just going through the process of pick-up and drop-off and the nastiness of some people (and other patrons) is horrible. I feel like such a dufus when I go through this scenario. Most people think because we are injured/disabled we are total idiots. I am trying to get through that problem all the time. And now you have your SSD you can begin the never-ending paper process of Medicare/Medicaid, etc...the fun never stops. I make so many phone calls, type letters, etc. I feel like I need a secretary anymore. Most people think we sit home and eat bon-bons all day (I can't wait for that to happen) lol. Welcome to the "Big Leagues!"

I think I am probably the only one here that had absolutely no problem with getting SSD. I filled out the paperwork, had someone drop it off, and by the fourth month got a letter saying I had it. No appointments, no attorney, nothing. Strange huh? Although with everything else in life I had a hard time. Go figure.

Good luck with everything and if you need any help from us here please feel free to ask. We all have a wealth of information and it is a great place to get quick info.
Take care,
