I made the apptment w/ my primary care dr and got in today. U/S scheduled for monday am and follow-up is on thursday.

To make a long story short w/ dn here is the update i posted on the other board.

They denied my dh emergency leave and so he will be home at this point some time in April. They were trying to send him home on R&R in mid Feburary but why at this point the emergency is over. I have things under control. At this point I may need him more in April then now.

Things finally started coming together yesterday. I talked to Cass's caseworker at the ins company and they said that they will allow her the full 150 days of treatment and garunteed me that they will not pull funding until she is out. That puts us to the end of March or around the first of April. I also received a call from from DHS abouthte Medicaid that wasn't suppost to even have been looked at till April and guess what she is now covered as of yesterday. So that means that when your ins doesn't cover anymore then Medicaid will kick in. So I guess that this all means that we may not have to place her in the care of DHS after all (thank god). As long as things keep going like they are then I think I might survive this.

Last week I was ready to throw in the towel. I just couldn't take anymore. But it is a new week and I am just taking it one day at time. Did I mention that I love her caseworker atthe ins co. He even set us up w/ a few of the programs that the military provides to help make sure that the child's needs are being looked out for. Not only did he do that for Cass but he also set it up to help w/ Zach.

OH and most important she has now had 8 really great days and is back to her old self. It s really weird. But I am very thankful. She did her physcial w/ the pd ysterday and did great. She also said that the reason that she lied to the pd about what hadn't happened was she was afraid that the perp would come and hurt her. She has now told the nurse who did the exam and a few others that can testify about what she has said. She feels like she is ready to tell now becasue she is ready to stand up against the perp who hurt her. I expect to have some more downs but at least if there are more ups now then downs I can deal.
