Re: Cdr

Dear Friend,

It does not seem to me from what you state that they will be stopping your benefits. Nevertheless, you need to co-operate with them and let their doctor examine you. My guess is that if you relate your complete medical history to him, and after he examines you, you will not be terminated from the benefits you are presently receiving. Best of luck to you! Of course, we all hope you get better, Social Security benefits or not; but it appears from what you state here that you are indeed disabled. Again, good luck!

Sincerely,

Hardy Parkerson, Atty.
