until she was able to work after receiving the mobile device and after the 18 month trial work period according to Social Security public laws/programs like, Ticket To Work. Through the, Ticket To Work Program, she could go back to work and then be off of SSDI. Then later, if the device starts to hurt or more surgery is needed or she is in pain, she would go back to SSDI without the up to 5 month waiting period. (Filling out the correct form right before going back to work makes moving back and forth from employment to SSDI possible.)

In my opinion, she should be compensated for past down time, by private party and SS, until she is working painlessly, and stays working. Being an attorney, Gregg Abbott should know this.

(Veterans may move back and forth between VA Healthcare System and Medicare-SS, every month. It is a way to get a second opinion and a written course of treatment.)

Bullshit headline. The ad does not even show Abbott in a wheelchair, let alone "focus" on it. SunSeeker Oct 2014 #11

but it shows a wheelchair!! RussBLib Oct 2014 #12

The wheelchair is EMPTY and is flashed for half a second when talking about paralysis compensation. SunSeeker Oct 2014 #13

I agree with you Sunseeker RussBLib Oct 2014 #14

remember, perception is reality. 7962 Oct 2014 #21
