Re: UPDATE ON US:(

,

My daughter Piper is also on SSI, and with her SSI she also gets medicaid, that

is unconditional regardless of income or private insurance. Piper's SSI isn't

really based on income, only on assets. If we have assets of $2,000.00 or more,

then her income amount can be reduced, but they don't count your house or

vehicles.

Kiertsten is doing well for now:)) She goes in for her next visit at the end

of the month. We are going through a rough time right now. My husband foound

out that he might be getting a promotion. Thats all nice and good but if he

gets it we will loose the ssi and medicade benefits for Kiersten I would

then be forced into going to work full time and pay for day care and I really

don't want Kiersten to go into daycare.On top of that our priviate insurance

will not cover her tube feedings so we would have to pay for that out of

pocket. We would also have to pay 60 dollars a month for each of her

percriptions. Along with hospital and Dr visit copays.

This is just such a hard place. My husband really wants this promotion

cause its getting him where he wants to go with the company he works for. I

would be working to only pay for daycare and hopefully cover Kiersten's

medical expenses the our priviate insurance won't cover. This sucks!!!!!!!

Thanks for letting me vent:)))
