Well, there was a change in plans with Torah's medication - but it is a good change. I received a call from our local pharmacy yesterday saying that they could now fill the Previcid and it would only cost me 10 dollars. I think I about did a flip in the air!! The prescription coverage company that was going to fill the prescription and mail it to us told me that they could fill it for 40 dollars (one month supply) or 80 dollars (3 month supply). I thought that it was pretty pricey - but it was cheeper than what was previously quoted by the local pharmacy. So after getting the Rx filled at our local pharmacy, I called the company back and told them to NOT fill the Rx. This is the funny part (at least I was laughing) : The gal that I was talking to told me that there was no prescription and that there was no pre-authorization for the medication. So in other words, it is a good thing that our local pharmacy filled the Rx for us - other wise we would still be waiting . . . for nothing!
On a separate note - I met with a motorcycle group today that does fund raisers and poker runs for children (like Torah) that need help with finances. Torah's doctor gave us the information on them and said that she would be a good candidate. Since we are still waiting on the waiver process to be finalized (to find out weather she will qualify for that as well), I thought that we could use any and all help. About five of the groups members came by the house tonight to meet Torah and ask me some questions about her. After they meet all the children that have applied - they review all the information and contact everyone to let them know who they have picked for this year. They said that this will be the 9th year for them and they have really great results from all the bikers around the area. I will let you know what their decision was after they let me know.
