Hilary, Congrats with the good news re your kids. Please send me your list of 16 - I am having a battle witih my employer. According to them I am too healthy to be disabled, but in the process I might be retrenched (My feeling is that it is BECAUSE of being a PWP that I cannot perform at work to the extent that I could compete for a post).
