I have HAPPY FEET!!!

(Insert a Happy Dance here!)

My son called today - he heard from his lawyer - he will have his insurance settlement tomorrow!

Yeahhhhhhhhhh!

What does this mean? A lot actually....a whole lot.

My son has gone through hell the last 3-1/2 yrs. Physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. Since the explosion his life has had so many ups and downs - but the light at the end of that tunnel is getting brighter. Much brighter. Now he can at least be secure financially, pay his bills and that in turn will help the emotional and mental aspects.

The money will help with the physical part too. He will now be able to have the remaining surgeries that are needed on his jaw and teeth.

For me? I am just SO thrilled to know that my son has a brighter future. He won't have to live paycheck to paycheck as I have always done. Now when he brings home his paycheck he will be able to pay his bills and not have to worry about the medical bills that have mounted the last few years.

And he won't have to "borrow" from good ole Mom anymore (very large grin inserted here). Of course, good ole Mom will always help him if he needs it.

That's what Moms do. :)

Grats on the settlement. It sounds like it was a long hard road.

Sorry to hear about the explosion your son was in. Thank God he is alive. I hope the settlement helps repair his life. God Bless you and your family.
