Great news Mich! How are you doing today ? Same ole, same ole......it's getting pretty old though. I feel great though, last night was the first night I haven't woken up and stared at the ceiling for an hour since this mess started. I called my insurance company and pointed out to them that there are bills that they should be paying and are not. Response was "our bad, we'll fix that". Didn't even need to write an appeal letter. Still working on data, but need to take regular breaks to check out what's going on on the boards. Today's going well.

I am going to hope it doesn't take the whole year. Be well Mich. It will, provided everything goes well. First hip goes in early July, second hip early Sept. (I have a 9/1 deadline on thesis, so must do it afterwards). There is going to be 3-5 months rehab, which can't start until ~6 weeks after second hip is installed. Hope I can be back to work in Feb., and that is if there are no more complications.

And I just got a call this morning that my supplemental insurance will kick in as well. WOO HOO!!
The icing on the cake was that when I was talking to my chair on they phone about my thesis, he said that it sounds like I have been making progress and if I continue at this rate, he will push for an extension for me. It won't be a couple years, but another 6 months would be appreciated.
