Default Insurance APPROVED my powerchair!!
Unfortunately, we have Try-n-Get-Care aka Tricare and surprisingly they actually APPROVED my powerchair!!

The Neuro & PCM began this saga in January, the sales rep came in March and I got an approval letter this week.

We have to pay $1305 as our 20% but the group of Doctors that DH works for will be paying that !

I only hope it arrives before our vacation, so I can put some serious miles on it on the Boardwalk at the shore!!

DH and I are taking the camper to Cape May all by ourselves!! The kids have summer jobs and cannot get the time off, but I'm sure they will come and stay over the holiday weekend.

We were in 'close quarters' when the kids were teenagers, now we'll need to add an extra room, or the "boys" will be sleeping outside of the camper in the screen house!!
Should make for an interesting weekend!!
