What is the name of your state? Illinois
I've been recuperating since 12/05 after a fall which caused a broken arm, leg, knee, etc. I've been on short term disability through my employers insurance, I've been on the job 40 years. I am unable to do my work which is making precision parts for our helicopters used in Iraq, I can't walk, bend my knee, lift my arm, make a fist, etc, I assumed a long term disability. My orthopedic surgeon, who suffered a stroke between my monthly appointments, decided that if he can go to work so can I and released me without restrictions. I tried working for a day and just can't do it. HR is suggesting early retirement, and using up all my sick/vacation until then, or be fired. I am 61.
I really can't work, what do I do?
