Several days ago there were questions and suggestions about insurance for long term care....especially refusal of insurance because of PD. I wrote to TIAA-CREF (BIG pension plan for teachers) for their application for Long Term Care for Teachers. One of the questions asked if you had any neurological problems and specifically mentioned ALS; PD; stroke and MS. As soon as I saw that question I pitched the application in the waste basket..... With the number of former faculty members on this list::::have any of you been OKed for long term care by TIAA after being diagnosed with PD? Should I retrieve the applicatio from the waste basket?
