Phone call I can't believe!
 
I woke up this am with so much pain again. I was up most of the nite with my knee and then when I woke up I was so shaky I had to use the walker instead of my cane. I thought - another day in pain, not being able to do much of anything. BUT, then the phone rang. I almost didn't take it - but glad I did. It was the SS office. I WAS AWARDED MY SS DISABILITY !! Boy, I didn't see this coming this am. My hands are still shaking! I only applied in August of 08. I had my pain management dr fill out the RFD form (? - cant remember the name) and handed this in when I had my initial SS appt. to apply. I think this really helped. This is the only phone call I have received from them. This will so help our financial situation. I really thought I would not hear anything until April/May or so, and then it would be a fight. I still have my pain as bad as anything right now, but somehow I feel that my pain has been acknowledged finally by someone with that phone call. They ackowledged my pain is real !! Thanks for listening. :winky:

Soooo cool. So many of us wake with just that frame of mind and it's wonderful that something you needed so much could still make it a great day. Good for you!
