last blogged about Mike trying to get Workers Comp due to the fact that he can not work until after his spinal fusion surgery and rehab. When Mike went to a hearing a couple weeks ago, the lawer for the other side thought Mike wanted a settlement. That isn't the case. Just his comp pay, so we can survive. The problem is there are 2 insurance companies involved. The one that was there when Mike originally got hurt and now a diferent one that has been pasying the medical bills. It is awful as everyone involved is getting paid, except the person who genuinely needs it. Mike has been really down about it, because we can't pay our bills and he is worried we won't be able to make Christmas for our Grandsons and daughters. It upsets him alot. He has a second hearing Dec. 12 and we are hoping things are cleared up by then so we can have a Christmas and catch up on our bills. I am still trying to get SS Disability. I should have my hearing within the next 6 months. Not looking forward to this fight, but I deserve the insurance that I paid into my whole working life. It is our money and I think that having to fight for what is legally yours very wrong. I am expected to have an attorney to help me get it and they take up to 25% of what is due you. Money you need. Why can't I try and fight it myself? I think getting Lawyer involved is a waste of my money, but I guess in order to win, I need some help. It sucks.
Anyway, just wanted to vent a bit. Have a great one.....
