((((Tao))))) I'm glad you have ppl in your life who tell you they want you around no matter how "expensive" you are! Recently the insurance company really wanted me to settle, I had to hire an accountant to figure out how much I really needed to live my life expectancy... it came to $4 million or so. They won't settle, but they will have to provide until I die which will be nearly as much they will be spending upon me, just stretched out.
Being disabled can be expensive. It's a necessary evil... and not the best way to look at the best way to heal.. whether you can afford it or not. Remember, your illness is telling you that you are not worth it... don't listen to it. TC
