update - help me think happy thoughts!!!
 

ok....so here is an update to my social security disability filing. i applied on dec 2008. had an hearing before alj on july 12th. was sent to 2 consultative exams on aug 3 and 9th. my record was given to the judge (who was very nice at the hearing) on aug 25th and it was sent to decision writers on aug 26th. the writer began working on it on sept 1st and my case was administratively closed on sept 8th. i was just told that a letter was sent out already and of course they can't tell me what the decision is. I am on pins and needles waiting for the letter...stalking my mailbox. I believe the hearing went well and the voc expert gave testimony in my favor (I couldn't work even a sedentary job). I pray this is the end of a long wait for my approval. I am definitely almost one foot out on street.... thanks for all the support you all have given. anyone else relate to this????? :rolleyes:

Sounds like it might be time to dust off those dancing shoes!!!!!
