[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 674240, member: 18958"] New Leaf, before you make a move or [I]say anything[/I] at all about the possibility of retirement for HUBS, you need to look into his benefits. For my main employer there was both the possibility of a work related industrial disability retirement (where the job duties themselves may have contributed to the malady or disability retirement, where because of health somebody can no longer do their job.In my employment both of these types were better than regular retirement. Then there is a Disability Retirement through Social Security. Where your husband could qualify based on his years worked to get a monthly stipend. I think but do not know if this is diminished if their are other benefit sources. Then there is Disability Insurance. If your husband cannot work because of illness, he should qualify for Disability Insurance through the State. If it were me, I would file for that now. I would also file for a workers' compensation claim. I might also think about an attorney. If your husband belongs to a Union, there should be counsel available. The last people I would trust are the benefits coordinators on his job. I am completely in agreement with you. One hundred per cent. You need to take control. He will work himself to death if he is allowed to. That is what I think. He is looking for permission from you. I think he will go along. Tell him you love him and need him. It is a true thing. Of course they are. He can recover. I believe that. If the primary mission is that he recover. And grieve. Yes. I understand men and women like this. It is very loving that you know this and will help him fight for himself. Yes. He sacrificed himself, even with them to protect them. It is not too late, New Leaf. Good. If you did not understand some part of what I wrote, ask me. There may be more money available than you think. And Hubs once he is retired, can do many things still. But that will wait. COPA [/QUOTE]
