Pure Hell

Post by rushlight »

I haven't been around lately because since early March, things have shot to hell. I had a good insurance with my father's company and I have always paid it on time. One day, I went to the pharmacist to get a prescription picked up and it turns out they didn't recognize me on the computer. The clerk called the company and they said I have to call them to find out what went wrong because they show my insurance expired. I call the company and a sour , rude twit told me that I was only on this insurance until I turned 25 and afterwards, I would have limited time left. These bloody idiots failed to let me know early that my insurance expired on the 28th of February. I did get a letter that sort of mentioned it but it came to me in the middle of March. So I have no bloody insurance. I called around for new companies and they haven't sent me any information. And worse yet, my thyroid lump felt bigger and when I saw the doctor yesterday, he confirmed that it did. The good news about it is that he wants to send me to another specialist to get his second opinion and to be very sure before he decides that surgery is the best. He is leaving that as the very last option. It scares me because I have more than one lump and I had a lousy long night of recovery when they took it out the first time years ago. My Devil's Advocate has also been going through his own problems and we have to miss an hour's worth of time together and it is sometimes very hard. But talk about love, we pull through it and he has been right at my side as I go through my troubles and I always stick by him especially when he has his own crap to face. I have until April 7th to find a new insurance company before I see this new specialist. This has been quite a test of patience, love and going through a very scary ordeal.
I love my Welshman.

Goodness, Rushlight!!! I hope you find some health insurance soon! Those companies can hang you up by your (insert body part). I've had recent insurance problems and so have my friends. Life insurance policy cancelled for me because of a snafu on THEIR part and I've been trying to "undo" it for months. Health insurance cancelled for a friend with breast cancer. UGH!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRR~~

Here's hoping it is resolved. Good luck, sweetie.

Sure they do but they just don't give a fuck...that's how they make money.

Rushlight, try and ged a job with benefits if you can...go to your city/county whatever website and they should have alisting of city jobs most of which should have benefits.

Xan is right it's a dog eat cat shit world.
It erks me how some people hired in these positions think somehow it's their money

At any rate hopefully things work out for you guys.

Just stopped by to give a update. As if things couldn't get worse, my mother went in to the hospital for surgery on a hernia. It was pretty big and the doctor was having difficulty sewing an open mesh to the hernia because she has very thin stomach muscle tissue. After hellish nights in the hospital, she's at home while I try and do things for her which isn't always easy. She had a bad night last night and I stayed up all night which hasn't been good since I think my job is in jeopardy. I wish I was with D.A. now.

The worst nightmare to happen occurred at 4:30pm in my home when my mother suffered horrible abdominal pain. She screamed and cried and kept yelling how much it hurts and she burns. My dad and I were getting upset because we didn't know what to do to make it better. We took her to the emergency room. My brother and sister arrived later. They gave her morphine and another drug to quiet her. They did their routine, draw blood, urine, took her blood pressure and temperature. After hours pass, they said it was nothing but were going to do a cat scan. That was torture and instead of panicking I had to take charge and get her to calm down while they put her through torture. The results showed that it is a small blockage in her intestine. That was what caused her the pain. I told them that the surgeon mentioned some of her intestine was bunched together and the doctor said it can re occur. (the bunching I mean) She's staying overnight. I didn't eat, slept little, and was so scared to death that I prayed it wasn't worse. I cried so much scared to death that my mother was in pain. And with me staying alone and my dad a diabetic, it was a nightmare. She is staying overnight and they believe she'll go home tomorrow. They said it wasn't a serious problem. I wish D.A. was here.

oh my goodness, that's so awful..i can't imagine what could be more scary, knowing there's nothing you can do about it. i'm so glad it's nothing serious, though..

here's hoping you get to see DA soon, i'm sure he hopes for the same.

I'm crying for my D.A. now. I miss him terribly. My mother has been through the worst night of her life but thankfully she looks better and can get into bed without a problem now. The doctor came and removed her stitches and pipe thing that drains the fluid. He just wants to be sure that she doesn't suffer that horrible abdominal pain again. My home is a mess, I am a mess. I have a bloody doctor's appointment tomorrow. My mother is in the hospital. I pray I don't have to be in one soon too. Oh God, I am miserable.

I bought some gell pain killers as my shoulder is fucking killing me then the dam pills are eating away my stomach and the stupid asses here at work piss all over the floor and have minds of dirty toilets stressing me out for a heart attack. I'm going to the doctors this afternoon can't stand the pain was trying to tuff it out ya man fool hope I get some good pain killers so I can sleep and won't bother Minime. I should be at home but oh no again stupid man fool don't mind me I've been eating to many over the counter bull shit. The lights go on slow down Me you fool your killing yourself.

Other than that I'm just fine

hang in there Rushlight I'm trying

I really really hope that things get better and you and DA can get together and squeeze the jucies right out of each other. Other than that perhaps a small kind gesture and a virtual hug from me is all I can do.
wishing you well with kindness and a platonic hug.

I took my mother again to the emergency room this morning. She has been vomiting and crying since last night. They told me her small intestine slid and pressed to her bowels which made it difficult for her to have a bowel movement. The doctor took out 2 liters of fluid that were stuck in her intestine. And I had to deal with my dad getting a low blood sugar attack a few hours ago. Nothing serious. Just get something sweet in him and he's ok again. I am tired. But my soul mate is with me in mind and heart. I just got to keep going and not lose it.
