If Alzheimer’s has resulted in your disability or that of a family member, you may be entitled to receive long term disability benefits if you have purchased a disability policy from a private insurer or have coverage through an employer.

A study published in the Archives of Neurology has found preliminary evidence that squirted insulin deep into the nose where it travels to the brain may hold early Alzheimer’s disease at bay. New York Times Gina Kalapa September 13, 2011.

According to Dr. Susan Kraft, who is the Director of the Memory Disorder Clinic at the Veterans Affair Puget Sound Health Care System, brain cells need insulin. Diabetes and even untreated high blood pressure are associated with an increased Alzheimer’s and each of these conditions causes the body to make too little insulin. Scientists have reasoned that the more insulin can be put into the brain’s of people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, their memories ability to function might improve.

Scientist will continue to study how a spray of insulin deep into the nose using Kurv technology will result in a long term memory improvement.

If you purchased a long term disability policy from a private insurer or an employer, you may be entitled to disability benefits if you have been diagnosed with an aneurism. What is an aneurism, I like to think of it as a bulge in a balloon. The bulge exists in the balloon because the balloon is thin along the wall. Much like a balloon, an aneurism is inflated blood flow part in the artery that has been created because of the weakness in the artery wall. Did you know that you can have aneurism in your heart, brain and in your stomach?

Common aneurisms include aneurisms of the heart and major branches of your heart.

A ruptured brain aneurism can result in double vision, speech problems and even cognitive issues. The physical impact of an aneurism can be devastating and an inability to maintain concentration, to speak clearly, to concentrate, to follow instructions may be enough for you to be successful in your long term disability claim.

If you suffered from aneurism of the aorta or a brain aneurism, you should apply for long term disability benefits. Remember however, that your long term disability carrier will not make it easy for you to get the benefits that you paid for. If you suffer from an aneurism that makes it impossible for you to work and you have been denied long term disability benefits, aneurism disability attorney Nancy Cavey will help you cut through the red tape and fight for your benefits no matter where you live in the United States.

If You Don’t Protect Your Income Earning Ability By Getting Disability Insurance, You will Hate Yourself Later

Nancy Cavey — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 14:51:48 +0000

What is your most valuable asset? No, it’s not your home or your car! It’s your earning power. What would you and your family do if you could no longer work?

Protecting your income earning ability should be a priority! Yes, a priority. Statistic show that that over 70% of working Americans have no disability coverage and 3 in 10 Americans will become disabled at some point before they retire. In addition, 60% of all personal bankruptcy result from the inability to pay for medical expenses or the loss of a job.

Don’t overlook your need for disability insurance. Group disability insurance policies offer 50 to 60 percent of your income. Is that enough to maintain your lifestyle? Probably not. You should also understand that your group insurance benefits may be taxable and that there may be deductions from your disability benefits such as Social Security Disability benefits.

You should consider having group disability insurance coverage wrapped around an individual disability policy or, alternatively, purchasing an individual disability policy. Can it be expensive? Yes, it is, but the cost of the disability policy is just a small price to pay if you are disabled and unable to support your family. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that your Social Security Disability benefits will be sufficient to live on if you are unable to work. It takes 16 to 18 months to get a hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge. Can you and your family live on that? I doubt it.

You should contact an individual disability agent to learn more about disability insurance. You can order your no obligation copy of Robbed of Your Peace Mind to learn about what disability terms you don’t want to see in any disability policy.
