Hello Hospital, My Old Friend…

Well, friends, it’s been the week from hell and I’m now sure my husband, Kevin, was born above an ancient burial ground which cursed him with bad luck. Long story short (shared with Kev’s permission), he’s been in and out of the ER after a medical condition we were monitoring finally decided to pop, which has resulted in him being catheterized and fairly immobile.

Add the drama of an insurance company that decided to drop us without notice during the middle of this crisis. This sudden drop in coverage caused the medications he needs to live to be about $1200 and his desperately needed urgent specialist visit to not be covered. Thankfully, we were able to sort out new coverage that let us use co-pay coupons for the meds at least.

(UHC was the culprit who dropped us. We should’ve known better than to trust them considering how they’ve been in the news lately for being The Literal Worst. Good riddance to this trash company!)

Now, we’re just taking it one day at a time waiting on tests. Hoping for the best (which is likely surgery to alleviate his medical issues) or the worst (possibly prostate cancer).

If you’ve requested or are considering a character commission from me, I ask for your patience while we deal with our situation. Depending on how things go, I may have to stop accepting commissions altogether to focus on Kev’s health if we must take a second journey with cancer to remind it who is boss. I’m praying our outcome will be the better of these situations, but we’re planning for the worst and hoping for the best.

Friends have asked us if there are ways to help and, while we’re not in dire need, we won’t say no to extra help to make life easier during a tough time.

Now, the most important question to ask you all. What tv shows are you watching? We could use some suggestions to watch during the wait between appointments. So far, we’ve been watching Parasyte: The Grey and Dragonball DAIMA.
