Tuesday evening:
Mike was busy having wound care but was able to talk for awhile. He's a little bummed about what to do. His insurance has run out. It would have been nice to know that he was reaching his lifetime limit for insurance money more than a day before it happened. That stinks. No job. No income. No insurance. Ugh! I think they are trying to fill out paperwork for SSI right now. I think he's on a leave of absence from the school district so no job may only be temporary for at least a year while he recovers. But, if you have used up the lifetime insurance limit for insurance, is it a good idea to go back to the same job? Will he be able to perform the duties that he did before? He may have to have retraining in something that doesn't have the physical demands that the school requires. They have been good people. We are forever grateful for their open hearts and generosity. Will there be a place for Mike?? Maybe you can comment and let us know.

I notice there are very few comments since I started this blog. I did get some emails from people and am grateful for your response. I certainly will continue this as long as is necessary and maybe beyond that.

I believe Mike and Bette will go back to SLC tomorrow for another appointment. Maybe the staples will come out of his head. I hope the graft sites are good and the eyes are healing.

More later,
and so we go
