Stop in for a cup of coffee

On a serious note a quick prayer request. As some of you know Jodis Sister is terminally ill. No happy ending or recovery options, simply a matter of time. Jodi flew out this week to help with yet another surgery. Surgery went well but they took so much material out they cannot close the wound and she will get skin grafts to cover it. As a result she has a mechanical vacuum device covering the wound to ensure it stays clean. The stupid insurance company still will not respond to allow her to take the portable version of the device home while they wait to do the skin graft. She is getting phenomenal care at the hospital as a result of working there, she is the head pharmacist for the hospital. The insurance company is fighting with Drs and pathology lab to ensure margins were good on remaining tissue. At no point has the insurance exhibited any kind of concern for the patients well being. I am once again disgusted with our Insurance industry in this Country! Apologies for rant. Back to original request please give out some prayers for Sister Terri at the hospital in Oregon. Thx


Hopefully they can get things worked out and Jodi's sister can recover from the surgery...

This is why people hate the health insurance companies... They deny and delay treatments to save $$$$ and boost their bottom lines... They don't give two ***** about the people that they screw over and sacrifice just to pump up their profits... That is why that health care CEO got shot, and deservedly so... It's a shame that someone has to go to that extent to prove a point... And there's no guarantee the other CEO's got the message...

Kill someone in the street and you are a murderous felon... Kill THOUSANDS of people by denying and delaying their health care benefits and you are an entrepreneur... Apparently white collar crime is legal.... The upper 1% can get away with crimes the common people can't...

Rant over...
