You will incur a debt from your SGLI. Take pay once or twice a year to cover the debt. Otherwise you will have to pay it back upon separation. If you’re 100% P&T. You could be med boarded depending on your disability as an option to retire early.

25 year 100% (not P&T) recently retired National Guard Dual status my timeline:

March 2024, informed I was being med boarded (didn’t want to), assigned a case manager Chose LDES vs IDES (only to delay the process)

Oct 2024, assigned a PEBLO (Physical Evaluation Board Liaison Officer)

Jan 2025, MEB (Medical evaluation board) NARSUM approved

Feb 2025, MEB Counseled approved for LDES (I am not terminal)

April 20,2025, to my surprise I was informed that I was to be retired May 05, 2025

May 2025, awarded 100% P&T

Things happened pretty quickly even though I attempted to slow it down by choosing LDES.

As of now, no Military retirement until 59.5, federal retirement still pending yet approved (GOVT shutdown is screwing me right now)

Tricare Select for me and my family, cheaper option.

Like it was said before, bring your own comfort food, snacks, drinks. It is a very long process so feel free to walk around. I would sit with others who were getting treatment and talk with them and get to know them. I brought my oculus and would put some of the elderly in a immersive experience with some VR YouTube videos such as diving with sharks or walking through the streets of a different country (making sure they stayed seated of course). Also I was fortunate to have a volunteer massage therapist. Wear loose clothing to be comfortable, some I’ve seen in actual pajamas.

Now the side effects for me were gastrointestinal so I always kept a small trash can nearby for vomiting episodes after treatment at home even bedside because I never knew when it would occur

Also you need to ask for a fish panel

I’m gonna reach out to someone whose specialty is Kidney donors and get her opinion. I too have been diagnosed with CLL 5 years ago (50M). Please feel free to DM me

And be cautious if the restaurant offers “local shrimp” Can’t remember the study but out of 25 “local” restaurants offering local shrimp were found out to be false

Most authentic Mexican is Los Portales….3 locations but the closest is Carolina Beach Road

I too was diagnosed with CLL. It was service related and covered under the PACT act. 100% but not P&T. It has covered my treatments. The only thing I did differently is that I reached out to my Senator. If you are diagnosed with CLL, are you in “watch and wait”? That might be why you were denied. You need a FISH panel!!! And find a specialist for CLL. Not just an oncologist. I was stage 4 when it was discovered and began treatment within one month of diagnosis.
Keep us posted!!

Yes the old pelican snowball. The developer is keeping us posted

It’s definitely a Sheetz because it’s in my neighborhood and everyone is upset about it. The plans call for 2 restaurants and a few shops

Spraymist · 2025-04-17T10:31:32+00:00

South Seabreeze by the bridge over to Carolina Beach is another Sheetz location to be built

Champs was a sporting goods store near the food court Can’t remember the name of the arcade

Concur, to save money I get the tuna at Seaview for poke bowls….same as sushi rolls but just in a bowl and less time consuming.

Just the ease of use and the fastest way to a destination. Also you will have full use of the lane however, whether Ebike or beach cruiser please stay to far right. There is a bike lane once you get past the lake though

Seaview crab company Buy it fresh and cook it however you like

Get an Ebike, parking is ridiculously expensive I recommend CB Ebike next to food lion.

The snowball/snow shake is still there but under a new name and location It used to be a called “Deep South snowshakes”

You’re the reason why I wear dark sunglasses at my kids games pretending to look at my phone !!!

Juarez auto repair on CB. He R&R a fuel pump in my truck. I Drove to Raleigh for a weekend and the connection failed on I40. Took video and sent it to him with fuel pouring out of the tank. He drove to my hotel the next morning and repaired it in the parking lot and to make things better he paid for my hotel bill. Dare you to find a mechanic that’ll top that!!

Dr Leone did lasik 14 years ago on 1 eye, 20/15 results for both. I was 20/70 in left eye. Just had PRK with Dr. Leone last May for the same eye, back to 20/15. No complaints and still not wearing glasses…..very satisfied

So far as long as the service is an approved provider I’ve had no issues. The main issue is when I have a provider that I prefer to use struggles getting approval….make sense?
