Just checkin in to let you know I'm still here. I hope each of you has a good Sunday. I'm sorry I haven't been able to post more (weak) but I do read all the posts and think of all of you. My husband and I are in Richmond, Va, for our grandson's first birthday! It's my first trip since I went down for the count in April. Gosh, traveling just isn't so easy anymore. I'm happy to be able to be here, though.

I received some good news that the insurance company claims rep did indeed say that my case was validated and in order for long term disability. I also received some bad news that my "mostly" terrific boss did a lousy thing and changed our long term disability policy to include a 180 day elimination period (of which only the first 3 months are short term) so I have 3 months to go with no pay before I start receiving benefits. What was he thinking??

Take care everyone,
