Hey All,
I took a loooong break from here, I got to a point where it depressed me to be here. I am STILL not getting any help from the insurance company. Still get the You have to Self-Pay act from them. I had ANOTHER knee surgery on 12-01-06, this makes #4. Since my last post I had a job with the local hospital, but quit after being accused of numerous things they say I did ( like, complaining about my job in front of a patient that wasnt even mine). I hope that someone up above is watching out for me, and will make this surgery happen for me.
Until Next Time...

Well its been almost 2 months since my last update and no change... When it comes to surgery nothing ever happens... Scott & White told me that i can have the surgery there i just have to pay 25,000 up front... yeah let me pull that out of my ass seeings how this poor college girl who is jobless... Im so close to just giving up...

Well I think I might have found a loophole to my insurance approving my surgery... THANKS TO AMY!!! So I'll keep you all updated on that! I had knee surgery to repair a fracture on May 20th... And I've been in a wheelchair since... GOOD NEWS THOUGH!!! I'll be able to walk the 5th!!!!! I start back to school on August 29th! it'll be rough but i'll deal!

Well I have decided now to take each day at a time when it comes to this process... although I know that the surgery will most likely NEVER be covered by my current insurer....I refuse to let my faith fail... I've sent off for some more information from the Barix Clinics in Wylie, Tx... the brochure looks to be more organized than the previous. I Hope to get a consultation sooooooon! I looked on the Barix site and it seems that they take scott & white insurance and will work to get me approved... the catch is.... how much is the consultation!?!?!?!?
