I am sorry that you have to face this added uneeded stress. I think your positive view and fighter attitude is amazing and will pay off.
Also that is great about starting the new treatment which I have not heard of but am going to look up. Regardless I wish you health,pain free,and a wonderful job. Who knows maybe this will open a door to something even better? Stay strong

My wc atty wanted me to wait until my wc was settled. Unfortunatley, it took more time than what was allowed. Which I don't know if I would go back at this point or not. Their atty. says I need to look for employment elsewhere while the HR director says she has never fired me. (and I still have their insurance) so I guess I am still employeed their.

Isn't it interesting how HR and their own attorneys never seems to talk to one another? Just more of their games I think...

Well...today was my big day...my meeting with the EEOC. It seemed like it went well and that I have a solid case. Now it's just about waiting to see where things go from here...what my employer's response is and whether they are willing to work things out. But a charge has officially been filed against them for disability discrimmination and all I can hope is that we are able to come to some resolution in a quickly before I go completely bankrupt.

In the mean time I have started to put together my resume and started looking in to different opportunities out there. I am realistic...the walker is going to be a huge obstacle to my getting a job...and anything out there in my own field even if I DID get hired would mean a very large paycut (and loss of certain benefits that I have earned over time with my current employer). I have also started to look into and think about other careers which I might enjoy. I love what I do now...but if I can't find a job doing it then I will have to do something else. There's a few things that I found that I could maybe do from home but...well...pay would be a big factor and I don't know what the insurance situation would be in those situation (do people who work from home generally have group insurance through their employer...something I would have to look into). I also don't like that they would be less active...but if I can't find something in my own field then I would likely be limited to similar non-active work environments even if they were in an office.

But anyway...fingers crossed that we can get this worked out and that I can just go back to work with my accommodations. That would be the best outcome in my opinion...but I just have no idea what work is going to do. So far they have acted in ways that I couldn't even expect (even when I expected bad)...so we'll just have to wait and see what they come up with next.

Glad the meeting went well. I hope that things will work out. You have a positive spirit and it sounds like you are working hard to figure out an alternative.

Not sure what type of work or injury you had, but I am SO sorry for the manner in which your employer is acting. I wish you the best in your recovery and the possibility of continued employment elsewhere.
