might be finally getting caught up bam here comes another bill. Does

your state have a federally funding program that helps with care such

as physical therepy, speech, and occupational therapy? If so is

Autumn in that program. You may be able to get assistance for your

medical bills through the OCDD ( office of citizens with disability)

office. Our program here in Louisiana is Early Steps and we get

medical reimbursement for medical bills through the OCDD office that

is with the program. They only pay for the bills that are during the

fiscal year they are in, but it does help.
