Aww, Frank. She is so cute.

Call a consumer reporter at one of the local TV stations. I'll bet they would love to do a story about the state messing with a disabled woman with MS and her ill daughter. I'll bet they could get through some red tape for you. I still find it suspicious that only the daughter who is racking up bill is cancelled and the other one isn't.

Makes you go hmmmm.....

Oh my goodness, what a precious little baby! I wanna hold her!!!! Where'd you find her, Frank? If you find another one can I have her?

Im with you Kelly.

this is our adopted grandsons sister, katie and her hubby are back together and working everything out ,and apparently 10 months ago they were really close together

her little bro who is only 2 yrs 2 months and looks like a 3-4 yr old there are pics of him in one of my albums here[IMG][/IMG]

It is all too weird. They have my application, then the don't, then they do. Go figure. I am on Medicare and Medicaid (state program) and DD18 is on the state program (not KidsCare). I have 2 wonderful ladies helping me out at the DES office (not my local one). There were calculation errors made back in July when I called them as I got a hospital bill. The ladies are helping me with that. Both of these women work together and both have been very responsive.

Anyhow, what I have learned though is that there are no programs via the state or federal that helps disabled parents on SSDI with health care for the kids. (Mind you, I'm single on top of all of that). It is not as if we can go out and get a job with benefits. We don't have that option. There is no criteria/provisions for something like that in this state. I have been trying to check in to programs at the federal level and haven't found any. I may call the paper about this. It is a loop hole in the federal and state systems that affect many. I am sure I am not the only disabled parent out there going through this.

One of the ladies that I have been working with gave me the name and number of someone that may know of some program. Should I find one, I will let you all know.

Honey I am the bear in the woods! LOL

AWWWW Frank I want another one!!!

Trish have you worked your way up the ladder and asked for this ones supervisor and so on, this makes no friggin sense dd18 and u are covered but dd 16 isnt, lovely state you live in unfortunately here are the bureaucrats from Arizona


if i am gone for a few days yall know why

lol Frank. The link didn't post right. I think I can figure it out. EDIT: Never mind. I see the picture now. lol

Yes, I have talked to 2 supervisors so far; the 2 most helpful people so far.

Huh? Are you crazy? lol

No more for me. I will have to wait at a minimum (my requirement to dds) of 5 years before grandbabies. Degrees and marriages come 1st.
