Kidney

I for to mention that my kidney function is up to 65% it was at 40 something. I'm glad that the new medication he put me on is working. At least 3 more weeks wearing the abdominal binder. It's been an even hotter summer wearing it. I think it's getting better, but I won't know for sure until the middle of October when I see that doctor again.

Lawyer update

She faxed the letter to the insurance carrier and their lawyer, and she amazingly talked to the person in charge of my claim. This amazed me because almost every time I would try to call this person she would not be in and had to leave a message, and she would rarely call back, then she gave me her cell phone number, only she never answered it, and would only sometimes return my calls. Anyway, my lawyer knows they should not have denied my case. She told me to call the insurance lawyer when I got home, which I did but he hasn't looked at my file yet, so hopefully by the end of the week I will be submitting all the really past due bills off to be paid, and the money that is due to me will be making it's way to me. I may still have to go to the deposition, I'm praying it will all get resolved and I won't need a hearing. I am really praying hard everything happens quickly! I am so stressed with not having money all the time.

School's started with a bang for the girls

Sarah is always busy with friends wanting to do things, Color Guard, hurting her hand in racket sports, had to have wrapped but thank goodness it wasn't broken. This past Saturday was her first High School dance. Homecoming! She went to a friend's house and a bunch of them got ready together, before they dinned out at McDonald's! The dance was at ASU west, not sure why, Sarah said she had a fun time. One of Sarah's classes this year is dance. What she has shown me looks really good. Rachel is liking band and thought she wanted to do choir also, but there's some issues there I can't into on a public site.So she'll just play her flute for right now. After going round and round with Rachel and dance classes, she has decided not to dance this year. Next year hopefully they will still be offering silks, because she really wants to do that. I looked into acting classes for her, but they are not in our price range for right now. Joseph hasn't been doing a whole lot. He'd like to take some law or government classes, but until he gets a job that won't be happening. He has his mind set of working at a certain Fry's and that's it. He'll give it to November then start applying other places. Pat has been working a lot of 6 days a week, weeks to help us out financially. In July we got social security started back up, were in a hole right now so it's going to take awhile to get out of it. I have a lawyer and I am fighting the denial from Valley Schools. Saw my doctor today and he wrote a letter stating that the fall caused injury, and my preexisting condition did not. Tomorrow I met back with the lawyer, I have to met Valley School's lawyer on Oct. 11 and my hearing is set for Nov. 2. I have been so stressed about all this, it feels like I can barely function at all. I first said that I just wanted my bills paid, but now I'm thinking they need to pay me everything I am intiled to.
