Hi all,

So since I got kicked out of my university I figured that Voc Rehab lady wouldn't be of any further help and just stopped following up. That was last March-ish. In August I started a program at a local tech school to become a Medical Assistant. Last month my 'counselor' with the vocational rehabilitation office contacted ME and initiated procedures to help me with school payment. It isn't much, but they are going to cover the amount that goverment grant and loans didn't cover. It would be nice if they would cover the loan amount but that is still almost $300 that doesn't come out of my pocket.

She is also trying to arrange for me to have a few (4-6) therapy sessions on their bill. It's no fun starting over with a therapist but I think a few talks would be helpful right about now.

I am truly grateful for this unexpected help.

That's wonderful, Beth! I'm excited for you! A few therapy sessions may be JUST what you need. Keep us posted, okay?

Love and Hugs,
