Paralegal told me thier charges will be 20% plus expenses. While not being sure what that works out to be or how this will play out for me. I feel it is well spent and worth protecting my health and sanity. Even though the case manager and occupational nurse told me not to worry about the bills.

They were rolling in and I was starting to get threatening letters in the mail. It is unlawful to do so in this state. There exists no mechanism to stop that from happening. I could read the writing on the wall. While the writing is different the message is the same.

WC ins wants me declared clear to work. My co-workers want me back. As I told th Dr. I don't feel it is safe for me or others for me to be in the work place. I work in a manufacturing facility. There is a very real risk to me and others if I return but I am going to do as I am told by the Dr.

If I am hurt again or hurt another then that is on them. I have repeatedly and insistently voiced my opinion. I can not stay out of work as I need to pay my bills like anyone else. I am not independently wealthy. What little my wife and I have saved would not last long.

My inlaws have offered to pick up the lions share of the financial burden if I find myself unable to work for health reasons and unable to convince the Dr. It made me cry to hear that but that is the last thing I want. It would mean sacrifices for everyone and a serious alteration in lifestyle. I want to be self dependent.
