Good point, Kendall.

JohninKS...hugs to you both, not worth much, but glad you finally got it settled. IN the past five or so years, I was turned down, based on no recent salary history...duh, as if I could work, at the time. When I was first disabled I was told I shouldn't apply because I would not qualify. (I've since been told otherwise.) I didn't even bother trying, again. They wanted all records from way back and I gave them what I had. Most of the docs and/or hospitals no longer had my records available for copying. It was pointless to reapply. I can imagine a lot of folks getting discouraged and not bothering.
