Thanks Vic, what a great idea. :)

Thank you, Vic! This is awesome information to have on hand. I printed the list out.

Thank you Vic! I printed the list out also. Now I just need to remember where I put it should I need it!

Thank YOU!

I not only copied it but I'm also going to share it with my self-help group.

Last night's meeting was sort of a downer because 2 more spouses were laid off from their jobs. And one of our male members was told by neurologist that he needs to go out on disabilities that it looks like his damage to the spine is permanent. :( The problem is he's been laid off and now getting unemployment, what does he do for $ when he applies for disability. I hate our system.

oops, didn't mean to dump here! but thanks for listening.:)

thanks vic.
i'm making a copy too.

Please add any new Groups that can help, along with their telephone numbers if you find smething not on the list.

-Vic
