That thought has crossed my mind. (I could send half to the WH, and the other half to Congress) But, the government has been screwing up everything they touch for the past hundred years or so. They'd just screw up paying the bill, and it would get sent to collections.

as if I don't need another problem...remember that frozen shoulder I had? It's coming back. I have to go back to the shoulder doctor (who, inconveniently, is now out-of-network) and probably get another shot in the shoulder joint.

And I'm not sure I can do the cortisone shots in the shoulder for the frozen shoulder. My neuro told me that steroids will just make my MS work. I don't know if injectible cortisone will booger things up for me and make the MS worse. Apparently the cortisone shots are not a cure for frozen shoulder. They'll help the pain, but it's not a cure. I could be stuck with a frozen shoulder for up to three years.

Really hope that I don't end up in unrelenting pain from the frozen shoulder again. That was so painful, I was close to doing something to myself to make the pain stop. It was worse than the MS stuff, but it also contributed to making the MS stuff worse. I don't think I could deal well with that kind of pain again.
