Best of luck Sweet Tooth.

Had a fire last year, can't go to a basement to get away from them like you can a tornado.

RE: Off topic - it dont look good
Actually Bad Boy, having MS makes it very difficult to obtain SSDI. I went through 3 steps to get there. The reason it is difficult is because today I sit in a wheelchair and can't move my arms, and tommorrow I am walking usually sloppily but can type about 50 words a minute. It is hard to prove that you can't work at something. How to apply for society security would be a good topic to start for people who are going thought the process now.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

RE: Off topic - it dont look good
I can't believe that a person with MS has a difficult time getting SSDI! That is outrageous! Maybe the persons/people should just get a SSDI Attorney to fight for them. Unbelieveable!

RE: Off topic - it dont look good
Actually a lot of people who have MS work in our society. I had MS for 10 years before it took me out of work. Then it was because I have a lot of fatigue and memory loss. It was not because of mobility and function. Somedays are good, somedays are not. I can tell from my posting on here, however, most of you probably do not neccessarily tell that today she is sharp and tommorrow she is emotional. I read back and go...oh no..go back to bed, this is not your day....lol.

I applied over two years ago and it was approved after a court hearing about 4 months ago. They sent a nurse out to see me and our home. We had built a bedroom down stairs because I can't climb the stairs and the VA put a ramp on my front door so I could go out if I wanted. They also sent a voc. rehab out to see what kind of work I could do and he decided that the fatigue would not allow me to have any kind of permanent employment. So here I am on Social Security. I have the VA and another disability program...so I am doing ok...but could do better if I were still working.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

sweet tooth, how is the wind doing?  I hope you are safe and sound for the night.  You said that they have held it back, but how close is it.  I hate fires.  Please be safe.  My prayers are with you.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

RE: Off topic - it dont look good
bad boy - there are many that take years to get dx'd with MS because MS like many other auto-immune disorders are an exclusion of other auto-immune disorders until that is the last likely one left. And with MS - there are also other diseases that also mimic it - such as Lupus ( which you can also have white matter on the brain scan as well)
