The Letter

I got home from work and checked the mailbox. Among the numerous credit card applications and JC Penney's Biggest Sale of the Day coupons, was a letter from our insurance company. On the outside, it looked and felt like the other two letters we had already received denying coverage. I slowly opened the envelope, afraid of what it would say. But as I began to read, I was excited to read that after further review the request was APPROVED! The approval time period was for 7/16/07 - 1/16/08. Every 6 months, the insurance company would review the claim and see if they would choose to continue covering the drug. I called our advocate and she was excited to hear the news. Shortly thereafter, a pharmacy a few states away made contact with me as to when I'd like to receive the first month's shipment. I was informed that they would call me every month and let me know when to expect the shipment.

Meanwhile, Kyle continued his daily shots, still having his dad administer it.
