Seems like Crash and I always share bad news, but finally we we have some good stuff.

Posted by Trish (aka trisha) Sep 30 '13, 22:13

Today, I got approved for disability. I should have applied 2 years ago, but I felt like it was giving up. Oh well. So not only did I get approved, I got approved retroactively. It'll end up being 15 months money wise, and 6 months for medical. The last is the best part. Now my gallbladder almost exploding and killing me, ending up in about 50k in medical bills is going to be paid. It was totally freaking me out. The relief I feel is almost indescribable, I feel light, like a balloon is pulling along the ground. I haven't seen Crash this happy in a year. He was singing and dancing in the kitchen a while ago.

So to all of you who sent good thoughts, prayers, friendship, and "other" help, I love you all and I feel like your positivity has caused a reversal of all the bad things we've been dealing with. Remember, Karma goes both ways and a lot of you surely have some good coming your way. :)

It's a good thing they didn't do research on how much smack you can lay down, otherwise you might not have gotten it. (the very cool indeed nt.) -- nm - Qale Sep 30, 22:46
Excellent news! Very happy for you! -- nm - amoxy Sep 30, 22:33
It took 15 months to get approved, or they paid for time before you applied? -- nm - GregW Sep 30, 22:27 2

  - We had a vaguely similar thing a few years ago where we had $25k in US hospital bills stemming from Zoe's massive seizures while on vacation - ralph wiggum Sep 30, 22:50 3
    - If I can do it (see Qale, above) then you can. - Trish Sep 30, 23:11 2
      - Hmmm, that's helpful. Because we can't actually buy cover for her while we are overseas because of her pre-existing condition. nm - ralph wiggum Sep 30, 23:24 1
        
        I've gotten more kids on CHIPs than Carter's has pills, over the years. - Trish Sep 30, 23:47
