I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be,
but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see.

Medical records are vital to survival and correct care


Here are my medical records from University of Mississippi Medical Center. They’re the size of a large textbook!

I am no longer a patient there for financial reasons, but I went through this entire stack and I appreciate the documentation. I found a few minor errors, but it’s water under the bridge now. This is only one facility. I still have two more to pursue before I meet with Neurology Department of UAB Kirkland Clinic.

Now you see why my disability was declared quickly and without contest. Detailed reports by your medical providers are absolutely essential, and it’s their job. Advocate for yourself and ask for it.

Thanks Drs. Khemka, Roffwarg, Veda, Witt, Hillman, Fulop, Monico, Castaneda, and their assistants and fellows.
