Insurance

I didn't say anything earlier because I didn't want to freak anyone out. But now it is mostly resolved, so I can tell you. I lost my insurance as of May 1. Apparently my insurance company didn't receive my May premium. Since I sent it via regular post, I don't have any proof, and they will not reinstate me.

Now remember, I said you didn't need to freak out. Here's why. I called CuraScript (they supply my Remodulin) and told them. I called Caring Voice (they help me with my premiums), they are looking into what they can do. I called my nurse, and she said no matter what, my Dr won't drop me, and I will still get my medicine. So... breathe. I had to.

My mom took care of the last part. She called RMHMO and they denied me. But they did give her information about CoverColorado.org . So today was the deadline to apply for coverage beginning July 1. I got everything in. Thank you Momma!! I love you. And we can not worry.

We were scared. If I can't pay for my medicine, how can I get it? And my doctor!! They like to get paid too!! There is no way! There is no way I can pay for the months of May and June, but I will live. Sondra was wonderful, my nurse. She said, "as long as it is just financial, there is always away." She reminded me that it will be tough, but that I will be just fine. Thank you Sondra, you are definitely one of my angels!!

My friend Ryan asked me tonight if I was not writing about it because I didn't want to worry you all, and I told him that was correct. So then I felt guilty that I didn't say anything. But I needed to wait. And I am letting you know now. If things were different, I would be saying help! But I don't need to say that right now. I do, however, want to keep you in the loop!

And again... thank you to all of my angels. I somehow get put through the ringer, but you get me through it safely.
