Well - today was a good news / bad news kinda day. The good news, Lori's long term disability (through Hartford insurance - not social security) was approved. The bad news, Lori's long term disability was approved.
Approval means that she will get her disability check from Hartford until she turns 65. It also means that Hartford will help by providing an attorney if needed to get Lori's Social Security approved. The way it works is Lori is guaranteed a certain amount of $ through Hartford. When Social Security kicks in Hartford's liability is reduced by the amount Social Security pays. Since Hartford is going to be paying for the next 20 years it is to their benefit to get Lori approved for Social Security as quick as possible. Make Sense?
Approval also means someone agrees that Lori will never be able to work again. Not a fun thing to face. Lori is handling it pretty well. She has her ups and downs with it.
She made her 1st outfit for one of her Chatty Cathys yesterday & today. It came out cute. Should be a good hobby for her for a while - as long as her hands don't start cramping up. Maybe it will be good for them.
More later . . .
