Good Afternoon Jo,

You and scoote are both welcome. Nods.. once they do the MRI.. they will have a better idea of what is going on .. (stating the obvious.. grins).. I had a wonderful neurosurgeon.. I hope scoote has the same luck.. the surgeon makes all the difference... that is for certain. I agree as to the WC thing.. that is awesome that they stand behind the people that are covered.. virtually unheard of really... especially fighting against an insurance company. I hope you do not have to get nasty with them.. however, after the buying the house process.. I have every confidence you would kick some ass.. grins.

laughs.. I knew you were kidding around.. *silently makes a note that you are older than Me*.. whistles..

I hope you have a safe trip.. and that the weather is good for you.. coming and going. I am sure scoote and rooster will hold down the household while you are away.. smiles.

Keeping you both in My meditations.. as always..

At this point, we're waiting to hear that they've approved the MRI and the consult with the neurosurgeon...and then we'll hear what they have to say. Luckily, the state of Florida seems to have an entirely different approach to workers comp than where she was before. It's nice knowing there's a government office that's ready to push back against the insurance company on your behalf. Being me, I'm not entirely trusting of any of them...and am still ready to go hire a seriously nasty lawyer if need be...but we'll give them the chance to do the right thing first.

Oh...and the "old" was definitely about the friendship, not the age! Having just turned 49 myself, far be it from me to call anyone "old"
