Guest guest Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 I finally tracked down our own Kim. Kuwaiti Kim for those of you who remember her from long ago. she is back in the states, and has been since last Dec. She is here with no health insurance, so is still fighting to get care... The Kuwaiti Ministry that pays medical expenses decided that they could treat her back in Kuwait, as the initial tests don't show any difference in her health issues. She does have epilepsy, and as long as she has her meds, it can be controlled. The problem is that they don't have insurance, don't qualify for any of the assistance programs- and she doesn't have the energy to go thru the re-establishment process with new docs. I don't have her permission to give out more information-- so this will have to do-- I'll give you updates as I can. She has chosen to stay in the states, so won't be going back over to Kuwait except to visit. Her husband will be making trips here several times a year, and that seems to work for them. He went back over there this last summer, so that he could return to work. She has the kids here-- and all are doing well. Take care, TracieSee what's new at AOL.com and Make AOL Your Homepage.
