Just heard back from Blue Shield yesterday, apparently because I've had health issues in the past they're going to decline my business. Kthnxbai. I'm going to look into Cobra but if it's more than $100 a month (and I'm certain it is) then that's not going to work either. If I go with anybody else I have to change doctors and that's just depressing. At least I only have one prescription and I'm pretty sure it's only around $100 a month so I'll get by...I just can't get sick or injured until I find a new job and am covered again.

We're having our business wake today which I'm sure is just going to do wonders for my mood. If I don't end up a quivering wreck by tonight I'm going to be astonished. I just need to hold it together long enough to drive home, check in on Minnie and Maggie, and feed my own monsters...then all bets are off.

Definitely DO NOT let your coverage lapse. As a person who works with insurance companies all the time, it will be hell to get your medical bills covered for at least 12 months after you get back on an insurance plan. Even if you have to go on a medicaid plan, do not let your insurance lapse for even 1 day. Insurance companies are heartless bastards and they are looking for any way possible to not pay your bills.

And as far as your prescription goes, check with your doctors office and see if they have any samples or if the drug company that makes your medication has a program to help people who might not be able to afford the medicine. Even if you only need the assistance for a month or two (hopefully much less than that!!!) it is something that might help ease your financial worries.

I love ya honey!! I promise you a nice long email in the near future!!

Call me if you need to talk.
