I am happy for you. Took me 6 yrs to get approved for mine. No insurance no money no doctor records. It was tough

You are so right !! Amen, sister !! :D

It doesn't seem fair to have to go through further hardships caused by stress. I wonder if they catch all the ones who are really trying to "beat and cheat the system" while those who really are disabled are in such dire straits.

Just wonderful news!

It took us so long to get my dh disability payments paperwork straighten out after it was approved and payments started - they approved the wrong amount of payments, then wanted to eliminate payments until the overage was paid back and said we should have know how much we were entitled to and have corrected SS's mistake. I remember all the inept people we dealt with and the delays and their bad attitudes, that now I seriously doubt anyone is trying to beat and cheat the system. If I wanted to run a con game it wouldn't be for the peanuts that disability pays! I remember our paperwork being assigned to one worker that answered every question with "I gets to it when I gets to it. Ever time I gets called I puts that paper on the bottom of my pile."

The lawyer told me about that and to watch out cause they always catch up. If your not disabled, you will be after going through all the bs and red tape. We used almost all of our IRA 's just to live !!!! ARG !!

It is very hard to get approved for disability. It took me 2 years. That was after having back surgery 5 times. The last one was not successful.

God bless!!!!!! i know you are happy~

My daughter went through this, too. It took over 3 years. What a relief for you.
