Well after the catastrophic oil episode I got some very unexpected and happy news last night.
Last night at 6.33pm my workers compensation case manager called, I have been dealing with them a lot the last 2 weeks.
I thought he was calling to give me a date for attending an occupational therapy exam so they could fuck me over some more, on the money.
Instead to my disbelief he said, that had been cancelled, he had gone through my neuro surgeons notes again , and read something he missed last week about any bump or bang to my neck could cause a catastrophic spinal cord injury, and it would not be fair to put me or an employer in that position.
So I am getting a full payout which is 85% of the last 7 years of wages I could of earn, plus by weekly payments of the same going forward until I would have retired, plus a permanent medical imparement injury payment back payed to now and then onwards as a pension until I am 80 or dead.
Don’t have to sell the house if we don’t want to now, wooohoooo, I think roughly 50% of the money will go repaying the line of credit to the bank, and I have to reinburse the canada disability pension people 50% of what they have paid me the last 7 years, but man what a relief, I said to the guy if I could, I would be doing flick flacks all over the house with happiness lol.
I never dreamed I would say this but their are some good people with integrity working at WCB and I will be toasting my case managers name every Canada day from now on, but not today I have a horrible hangover lol.
Happy Canada Day to all the Canuks
