Dear Family [View all]

I got word today that my application for SSDI was approved. This has been a hard long journey, The money to live on/live from isn't here yet, nor the OFFICIAL letter, but I won. I share and understand and know how hard this journey is my sister and brother. Rejoice with me this day, and to any who want to ask, I will tell what I can in PMs.
grateful and happy, Irisblue
