We are good been married almost 25 years this year. I would not have made it without him and he says the same everyday. I was teminated after 7 years of employment 5 days after I was injured, they said unable to perform jub duties. I never had a verbal or a written corrective action. Whatever I am over that now. I am almost healed and will look for work once I am rated and this is over. Ready to move on. Luckily we were smart when we were younger and believed in savings.

Best of luck tomorrow!!! I don't think you have anything to worry about with your husband's injuries. Sorry to hear he has so many injuries...but am glad he's alive after such a horrible accident.

Ok update. We went to the Disiability Hearing today w/SS. The Admin Judge asked very basic questions. What surgeries he had completed, then the Judge asked questions at length about the surgery my husband is having. The Judge spoke to the Voc Rehab man that was in the Hearing. He asked the Voc guy with my husband limitations and impairements to recommend any work that he thought my husband could do. The Voc man was quite a minute, flipped thru the book, looked at the Judge and said he had no suggestions. So the Judge told my husband it would pass and be approved. So YEAH! one hurdle down and two to go.
