DH insisted this morning that we call Social Security to find out the status of my appeal for disability. I'd gotten a letter on 12/17/10 stating that "We determined that you are medically disabled but need to study whether or not you meet the other criteria for total disability" ()

So we got in contact with the person who got my file. She said, "Oh, we determined that you are disabled. You will get a check in 7-10 business days"

So I will get a small payment every month, which I am totally grateful for...

I got a weird emotional reaction...sadness. I am labeled DISABLED. Feels similar to when I opened my first shipment of injections...made it real.

Oh well...onward and upward
