It is March (actually March is almost over already) and we made it to Missouri, Kansas and back to Wyoming safe and sound. Although we did pick up some cold bugs and Bob got his had bit by his brother's dog. Funny how a guy can go slaughter a deer (or other wild game) but the sight of his own blood makes him almost pass out (I had to laugh at him for that one).
We met with Torah's new PCP before our trip. It was just a well child visit with some lab work (that must have been normal since I did not get a call back from the office). We also saw her ENT doctor to see how the tubes in her ears are doing. The tube in the left ear had finally slipped out and the doctor said that the right one would come out any day. He also told me that it looked like the left ear was filling back up with fluid. I told him about all her sinus infections this year alone and he wants to wait till warmer weather (June) before making any big decisions.
We go to Lander, Wyoming on the 3rd of April to meet with a group of specialist that have clinics to see kids like Torah. It is all being paid for by the State. I just hope that it will be beneficial and that we can learn something new or maybe they might have some new ideas on how to help her.
BAD NEWS: I just got a letter from our medical insurance telling us that Torah's pool therapy will no longer be covered because they see it as maintenance. So, until I get that straitened out - no more swimming for Torah unless I can come up with the 65 bucks for each visit. Oh, and they are not paying for the past few months either - so that is another 600 dollars to pay out as well. I have a feeling that I am going to be sitting on the phone with our insurance company to see how we can get at least the past visits paid for. We had such good luck with our insurance when we first started - and now it is just going down hill fast. I am hoping that their is one person that I can deal with - but you never know with stuff like this.
Torah is growing and trying her hardest to keep up with her brother Jace. She is about 37.5 inches long and is 32 pounds. I am getting to where I can not pick her up very well when she is on the floor - but I am not sure how to resolve that issue either. At some point everyday I need to pick her up at least 5-10 times (if not more). I guess I should make me a monthly visit to see a chiropractor (yeah right - insurance would love that too).
Not too much else to report for now . . . check back soon!!
