Meds and Notes

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Not really sure where to start… Ana is doing well she has been on and off sick recently… each time she comes down with a cold she ends up being home for a week or so.  Her immune system isn’t quite up to snuff yet.  Her scar is nearly healed so she’ll let me post something once it’s not so pink… she has been great since the bandage for her mole removal came off but you can tell she’s still getting used to it.

We also met with a school vision specialist last month.  She was very impressed with our little girl, she did a great job of advocating for herself and was able to explain with great detail what her issues were. The plan is to get her to touch type so at somepoint we can get her an ultra portable laptop and she can take and do her homework on that.  today she had due a “wellness plan” for a class and I doubt I could have gotten away with that little she had.  But in the paragraph or 2 she would have a on page you could see where her eye’s would just give out and it was increasingly difficult to write more.  SO the idea is to have her on one machine that would work well for her.  Something useful for small hands and good battery life.
The other modifications have been working well… she does math homework sheets on 11×17inch paper! Vs. the standard 8.5×11 that would normally be used.  Most kids would have a couple issues with using something so different from their classmates but for whatever reason she just goes with it.  IN another post I’ll explain more of what’s going on with her eye sight and catch everyone up…

It looks like Ana will be starting Growth Hormones, so long as her Next MRI turns out well. She was really disappointed when she found that out… She wanted to start a while ago.  She wants and is ready to grow… All the test show that her body is producing what it needs it’s just not making it to the areas where it’s used.  So were going to see if an artificial source works.  Anniessa currently has a couple inches on her older sister.

On Tuesday I called around to pay some bills and to take care of issue I reported here on the 9th of October.  Since the new bill I got in the mail that day showed that it still hadn’t been take care of.  The customer service rep. was more than willing to help me out and get it squared away. A large load off my mind! (more…)

Creative Billing of the Duluth Clinic (SMDC)

Monday, October 9th, 2006

OH these people make me so MAD!  We got a grant from our Primary doctors office for the first CT & MRI from the Duluth Clinic. The scans that first found her tumor back in June. So with this grant we were not suppose to be billed for either scan they were both being picked up by our clinic.
