Lady Glorianna:

you may not remember me but we met at the Carolina faire a couple of years ago.  There are no words I could speak that would be better than those already spoken on this forum.  I remember your husband well and you also and I am most distressed about what has befallen the both of you.  I will pray for you both as that is all I can do.

Anon and faire well

Dear sir, we both remember you full well not only from Carolina but also from Sterling.

Alas he did not make it to MDRF this weekend. To complicate matters even more, through his job he is getting disability. This is in addition to social security which was approved in May of this year. Long story short, as per contract the disability check and the social sec check should be the same. As the disabilty ck was more, they have determined that there was an overpay and they are damading that we pay back almost $6,700. When his mother learned of this, at first she asked if I was getting money from my parents to pay it back, then she said she would see what she could do to help. Every day I am liking this woman less and less to say the least. We do have some savings that I was to use when he passed to pay for thing and try to keep up with things. This money will have to come out from that which worries Ron a lot since this is what worries him the most, how well I will be once he is not here. I cannot hide anything from him as he knows me too well...

Any chance that you can fight it?  Did they really overpay that much or are they just saying they did?  And if they are going to continute to pay, they why don't they just take it out of the amount they will pay you rather than demand it back?  Just one more thing you really DON'T need!  I saw you briefly yesterday but it was pouring so didn't get over to you soon enough.  You and Ron remain in our thoughts and prayers.

I agree with Master James, the overpayment was  their mistake, so they should take the hit and deal with it.   If someone, for example, pays more money on a bill than they meant to, they  sure as heck aren't gonna see that money again.  To me this is no different.  They supposedley paid you more than they should have, but that's not your fault so you shouldn't be penalized for it. Like Master James said, the least they could do is take it out of any remaining payments instead of bothering you about it.  Considering the circumstances that's pretty heartless of them. 

I can't really say anything that hasn't already been said, but Lady Glorianna, I'm so very sorry for what you and Ron are going through. Although we've never met at MDRF, I know who you two are, and you continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Lady Glorianna, my heart truly goes out to you with everything you are going through! Please give Ron a hug for me. I remember with great fondness meeting both of you when I wnt to MDRF after the big storm hit. You are both in my thoughts! I know how hard it is to stay strong, let alone feel like you are staying sane. Please never forget that you are loved so very much! Both of you are!!!

It's already been said, but definitely fight them saying you owe them money. If there was a mistake it was theirs, not yours. And as has been said, if they are still sending the checks, then they should modify the checks sent instead of demanding a large sum back from you.

*HUGS*

Hang in there sweetie, and remember to try and find things that you both can laugh and smile about.

Dearest Lady Glorianna, all I can offer are hugs for you both. I hope they do not give you too much hassle about the overpayment. Although I believe this is their fault and you shouldn't have to pay a dime. If they force the issue, try to set up some sort of payment plan. They should at least go for that. Hugs and love to you!

Seryn

Dearest Lady Glorianna, I would love to write something eloquent and comforting, but what are word sin a situation like this, anyway?  I've just read this thread from the beginning and I am crying for you now.  I cannot begin to imagine your fear, sadness, and pain.  So I can't imagine what to say to try to comfort you.  So instead, I will say this: though we may not know each other very well, I love you, and I know you have many you can talk to, but know that you can talk to me as well.  You will both be in my prayers and thoughts daily.

Well, I am writing from his room at the hospice center. He had to be brought here by ambulance since he is doing bad. He has been having halucinations, a lot of twitching and is now disoriented and even lethargic at times. Mostly and hopefully solely, this is due to becoming toxic through his pain medication. Time will only tell if there is disease progression involved too. No matter what, it looks like we will be here for at least about a week until they safely switch him to another med, becomes stable and/or they figure out the whole picture.

I am broken. The doc was just here and he said that it would not surprise him if he passes in a week or two. Ron is in a fog. He spends most of the time sleeping or mentally off somewhere. He has moments where he might recognize and acknowledge who is talking to him but these are becoming less frequent. His kidneys are shutting down. My father is coming into town tonight... :'( :'( :'( :'(
