Tpm update
Hello all
As some will know I have ongoing issues with my cervical spine. After my last operation in March to fuse my C4-5 the fusion still hasn't taken place and my pain continues. I applied for SSD at the end of September and just received the phone call that it was approved  . This saves me from paying an attorney so I am really happy about that.One less headache for the holidays Take care and Be Well Take Care and Be Well Tom |

RE: Tpm update
Hi TPM>>>>nice to see you. I am so sorry that you are still in pain. I am happy though that SSD was in your favor. I didn't pay an attorney either and was glad I didn't. Bes tof luck to you. Visit us more often if you can.
God is never late. In the end it doesn't matter how many years were in your life but how much life was in your years. |

RE: Tpm update
Thanks guys
I was somewhat nervous to answer the phone when she called. Especially after everyone I've spoken to said it will be automatically turned down without an attorney the first time around. Christmas will certainly be a little better now that I don't have to worry about SSDI Thanks again Take Care and Be Well Tom |

RE: Tpm update
tpm great news for you...maybe a bit of back pay for the holidays.....make sure any settlement has the right wording thru WC for SSDI so you dont get screwed......enjoy your holidays and come around a bit more you hear!
;)Workmans comp is not a road you want to travel alone.You need a good lawyer,a great family and good friends to lean on.If you make it thru without losing everything you have worked for all your life,you have come out ahead of the game.....

I have an attorney and right now i can not seem to see that an attorney is any help I wish you luck Cervical Fusion and hopefully he can help. I remember spending a good 3 days filling out online forms. I then expected to be called in for a interview but that never happened . I was told they may call me once every 3 to 7 years to update my condition to determine if I should still be collecting SSDI. Seems fair enoughPlease keep us posted and I hope the appeal goes in your favor Be Well Take Care and Be Well Tom |
