Advice on TPD

Hi All, It's been a while since I have been on here. Just wanted some advice on TPD! I was diagnosed with TNBC in 2011 Have had chemo, radiation, double mastectomy with reconstruction. Ooverotomy. Then in 2013 I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia I was 39!! I had a horrible time with treatment ended up having a Bone Marrow Transplant. I was on Income protection through super. I have tried to go back to work but I'm struggling with day to day life I am constantly tired an I have real memory problems. I don't think I can work now after all this treatment. Does any one know if you can claim your TPD or has anyone done this??

    dear vanessa, I think you are expecting far far too much of your self.You have been through a terrible ordeal,which is probably still continuing. Be kind to yourself.Good luck. Karen
