    Default Was MIA but back now...

    It seems like it has been forever since I have been here. We have just been so busy with school and life in general. I am currently finishing up my first of two internships I need to do for my degree. I really like it but it has added a lot of stress on us.

    Because I am working part-time, 32 hours a month, DH lost all of his medical assistance. This has us really worried as he needs to have this assistance. There is no way we can afford the $3200 a month his medicine alone cost. What I was bringing in barely covers what they want for his medical spend down and would leave nothing for groceries. It just doesn't pay to try to get ahead.

    But its ok... we are filling out applications to the drug company and other places. Even wrote several letters to our government officials. I don't know it they will help but it can't hurt. I am just putting it all in God's hands. He has always come through for us before.

    I also want to apologize to all of the ladies who have posted on my food pictures. I promise to post all the recipes for you. Just please be patient with me.

    Hope everyone is doing well. I am looking forward to catching up with you all.

    Take Care,
    Debbie K

    Nice to see you back! I'm sorry ya'll are having to deal w/loosing DH's medical assistance. Applying through the drug companies & contacting anyone you can think of couldn't hurt. I've heard many are able to get assistance through these when the government programs deny benefits. I'm sure its very stressful dealing w/this. It will get better.
