From an objective viewpoint, they represent a disparate set of entities. On the face of it, they have nothing in common. Yet, it is the symbiotic relationship that allows for pollination and propagation, and the nexus between the two is a necessary relationship between the two in order for new seeds to be generated, and for a thriving environment to continue to flourish.
How that “connection” between two dissimilar entities is developed, is a natural order originating from unseen forces; but how we have come to recognize the nexus is through observation, experience and logical analysis. Much of what we do, see and pass by are similarly connected, but of which we fail to recognize the intersections.
Filing for Federal Disability Retirement benefits through OPM is often like that — of being denied simply because we fail to see the logical connections. We believe, for example, that submitting old medical records that date far back would show how long we have suffered, but fail to see the connection that it might also reveal the converse: That, despite the medical condition, we were able to successfully perform our jobs.
Consult with an OPM Disability Attorney who specializes in FERS Medical Retirement Law and recognize the nexus that must be developed; and like the flower and the bee, begin to develop the connections necessary in order to pollinate a successful Federal Disability Retirement filing.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Esquire
