---We have fought with our insurance, have provided letters and
letters of medical necessity and have been told by our insurance that
they "dont doubt he needs a nurse but your plan doesnt cover it" We
had to fight for the 30 days they are giving us, it took us 3 months
of letters and calls to get that. We make too much money for medicaid
so if we dont get the waiver soon, when we go home we will get
readmmited if the insurance doesnt give in. It sucks to do the right
thing by working and being married and waiting to have kids because it
seems the system punishes u for it.
