Good energy is with you, my friend! Thanks for following...

I saw that you are going to be looking into filing for SS Disability. I did rhat not too long ago. It isn't very difficult. There is an application you have to complete and there are parts for the doctor's office to complete. We took my paperwork to the SS office and sat there while someone there input it into their computer.

http://www.ssa.gov/disability/ is the link that will get you started, if you wish.
