7days... or not

[Guest guest]

OK, so everything has been going really well. I've got everyone lined

up to help with the kids, travel arrangements, extra money, food

stored up and I've even stocked up on some Ensure. All ready to leave

Tuesday morning, meet with Dr. Luketich on Thursday, first on the

schedule Friday morning.

Then comes the screeching halt!!!

I called my pharmacy on Wed. to refill prescriptions and they tell me

there's some kind of problem with my insurance and it's not covering.

I check the next day with a phone call to BC/BS and they tell me my

coverage ENDED oct. 31st. I get with my boss who calls his wife (she

handles our HR stuff - it's a small company) and tells me she's

taking care of it.

Thursday, I get an email 'insurance is re-instated as of noon today'.

Go to the pharmacy thursday after work - still not paying. Get a

letter from the insurance company that coverage has been terminated

as of 10/31/07. Call boss at home - She's calling BC/BS tomorrow.

Come in today, call same boss 2x - no response. Call wife, " oh, Bill

is supposed to call them and call you back " finally get a call about

11:15 from OTHER boss, calling insurance company - STILL don't know

what's up. I'm CRYING at this point because my whole life and

everyone in my family and everyone around me has been arranged to

make this work and if we only get insurance re-instated as of today,

it's been lapsed for more than 63 days and they'll hit me with a pre-

existing condition clause!! I'm sorry this is so rambling but my head

is all spun up and I can't do anything but wait and I hate it.

Thankfully my eating and my weight are still OK so if need be, I'll

survive another year but you know when you've been so worked up about

something and it has consumed every thought and deed for the last

month while you prepare and then it doesn't happen??

I just want to crawl under a rock.

I'm trying to be optimistic and keep thinking that 2nd boss will call

and tell me all is well be every minute that goes by makes me believe

it less and less.

Thanks to you all for listening. I'm still so hoping that in another

couple of weeks I'll be on that list of people that can post about

how much better everything is for me.

Keep your fingers crossed, pray, whatever it is that you believe in

for me.

Love to you all.
