The attorney for the insurance company has been working on this case for over 2 years. He's really good and the slime guy has been under surveilance by a PI. The insurance company says they have enough on him to make him look really bad in court. The lawyer says he's not convinced that it's bad enough for him to lose his case, in light of the fact that he does have that huge medical bill from two surgeries. He's worried about him winning in court and us ending up owing him big bucks. That's why he advised us to get our own lawyer to help protect our assests because as the attorney of the insurance company only, he can't do that for us. But he is definately in our corner. I can feel his genuine concern. However, if I can find out about his wrecked vehicle that might help go a long way toward proving he's a liar. I'll keep you informed. Thanks so much for the encouragement and concern. It feels so good to be able to vent.

The reason is because we have a $100,000 limit on our insurance. Anything over that amount comes out of our pocket. His medical bills to date total $80,000 He also asking for pain and suffering, unable to make a living for his family (which he didn't do before the wreck!) Now he expects us to basically support him for the rest of his life as he says he's capable of earning $24,000 a year in a sales job. Loss of intimacy with his wife, unable to play with his children, yada, yada, it goes on...........If it had been with a normal person, yes my insurance would have taken care of it. Because it goes over the limits we have a huge problem now. Bankruptcy is sounding good to me. Thanks to whoever offered that advice. We took a second on our home and spent it so there's no equity in the house to take. I was working extra to pay it back but now I'm not going to until this is all over.

I did have that blood test done to see where I am in my menopause. My level is 19 which means I am post-menopausal. Woo Hoo !

My husband and I are being sued by a sue happy low-life for $240,000. My husband did tap the back of his car 2 years ago, the result was a dented bumper, that's it, the guy, I'll call him "R" has had 2 surgeries since then, a back surgery and a rod placed in the front of his neck. Suposedly his doctor is on the up and up and "R" is blaming us for everything. He previously sued his former employer for $150,000 and won and also another car wreck in which he received $90,000. Interestingly enough, this past February when we went to depositions, I saw his truck and it was in mint condition. Last week, I looked at the accident report once again, took note of his address and decided to drive past his house. His truck is now totally wrecked in the front !!! I took a photo of it and e-mailed it to the lawyer. We've had to lay out $3,000+ dollars to our own lawyer to protect our assests. I understand that if we catch him in a lie, like he had a wreck in his truck and didn't report it (which he didn't, the police or state don't know about it) then we can sue him. I forgot what we can sue him for (?) something like "causing needless something or other" anyway, I hate to sue someone but we decided we would if we get the chance. I think it's time for him to feel what it's like on the other side of the fence. It would have to come out of his pocket as it would be a civil suit. Anyone out there have any experience like this in the past or present. We go to court December 8th. Any helpful advice?

I also thank God for Zoloft & Ativan. My doctor started me on synthroid 6 months ago even though my level was normal. Did you know the Endocrinology Association has now decided that anything over 3.5 is hypo? I had to change doctors, the first one wouldn't even listen to me with a level of 5.7 . Anyway, you may have something there with the depression issue. We are being sued by a sue happy low-life for $240,000.

:rotfl: Mine definately suits me, kinda scary !!! "Poopsie Bubble Biscuits". It was fun thanks !

I am 49 years old and have been having night sweats for well over a year now. I was having regular periods until 3 months ago and haven't had one since then. I have been on Evista for about a year. Ever since I haven't had a period I have days on end that I am soooo tired that I can hardly go at work. Then I'll have several days that I feel ok and then the fatigue sets in again. No, I'm not pregnant. I had complete blood work done and everything is fine. Is it the menopause???? Is there anything to lessen the fatigue. I feel like I could call in sick at least 1-2 days every pay period but don't. I don't ache or anything else just tired like I've been working 10 days in a row when I've only worked one. Anyone have any ideas or opinions? Thanks!

I remember being about 10 years old and I had a teenage girl neighbor on each side (Sharon & Melaine) who were soooo mature, like 14 or something,:rotfl: I would pick up the phone and listen to them talk about the Beatles, about boys at school, and about either curling or ironing their hair. I would listen for what seemed like hours. Talk about your HIPPA violations !!! Wow, I bet worldwide alot of secrets were unwillingly revealed. I'm going to ask my Mom what happened when she needed to use the phone? Can you even begin to imagine what would happen in this day and age if we had party lines? I remember only the very rich had a private line in the 60's.

An old nurse can tell you. You correspond the letters to the numbers on the phone. You know like # 1 is A B C and so on. I remembered 20 of those items. I'm 49 years old. I feel 20 years old. It was fun! "Thanks For The Memories", yes Bob Hope, I remember him too!

Cheese!
