Some major prayers needed....

F​or the last year we have been able to keep our health insurance because medicaid was reimbursing our premiums. The reason was because it was more cost effective for them to pay our premiums then to pay Alex's medical bills (That's a no brainer, huh?). We got a letter last week stating that they will no longer pay the premiums. Our premium is $1000/month which we cannot afford with Bruce still out of work. We CANNOT let this policy lapse as Alex will NEVER again get a private policy. We are working on trying to get this decision reversed. We need prayers for them to continue covering the insurance or for Brucey to get a job SOON with good insurance. My biggest fear is Alex not having good insurance. ​

PLEASE PRAY!

Happy Thanksgivin​g!!!!

We have so much to be thankful for....

For friends and family that have supported us in so many ways throughout the last year.

For Doctors and Nurses who have cared so well for Alex and kept him home for so much of the last 6 months.

For our nurses and child life staff who have taken us into their family and made the hospital a place that Alex loves instead of being scared.

For Dr. Koenig who loves Alex completely and puts up with all my questions! She is the captain of our ship and helps us navigate these scary waters.

For the many blessings God has bestowed upon us.

For Alex doing so well for the last eight months and being able to enjoy a more "normal" life.

But most of all, for my precious Buggy, who has dealt with so much in his short life and yet still wakes up every morning with a smile on his face and manages to find the joy in life. A little boy who has thrived in hard situations and taught us all so many life lessons.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day enjoying time with family.

This has been a fun week with Grandpa! We picked him up on Wednesday. We have had a pretty quiet visit. We have stayed close to home. We have gone for a few walks and rode bikes, but mainly we have just played.

Satu​rday we went out to dinner to celebrate Brucey's 40th birthday! We had a fun time. Sunday we had a football day!

So not much to report! Please continue to pray fr Bruce's job situation.
