This year has been terrible... my wife moved out back in May, I turned 61 and we 'observed' our 40th anniversary, and our eldest son died in October.

Expressing best wishes for a better new year.
Your wife moved out and you "observed" your 40th anniversary. Maybe the split is somewhat amicable?
I'm so sorry for the loss of your son. A parent should outlive their children. It's sad when that timeline is reversed.~ Faith

I will say first thing I am sorry for the loss of your son. My wife is still in my life. MS was here before the marriage, or the dating for that matter. The 2023 year wasn't all bad for me. I had a second hearing for SSDI and the administrative law judge found in my favor. I wound up losing my balance and falling breaking my hip. I was in the hospital from June 17 to July 3.
Finally in August my Social Security started coming. The main bad thing has been though was how my Dad got my "new" PCP's nurse practitioner to write a letter to Social Security saying that I need someone to handle my money for me. I can handle my own money. That nurse practitioner didn't know me from Adam's housecat.
I guess I should tell you the reason for the "new" PCP is that my neurologist is not in with the hospital where I do my Tysabri infusions so once I had insurance again they wanted me to see a "preferred" provider. I saw the nurse practitioner and was telling how I had to see a "preferred" provider. Then when I was checking on stuff with my Humana Medicare Advantage plan and the "new" PCP did a prior authorization for Tysabri and Ocrevus.
