Hi Everyone,
136 former cheerleaders got together to do a dance routine to benefit “Susan G. Komen for the Cure”. Each time someone views the video, United Healthcare will make a $0.10 donation to the Komen organization. Their goal is to get a million hits, which will lead to $100K raised. Please consider taking a moment to watch the video – and, perhaps, pass this link onto your network of friends, family and colleagues.
Thanks!

Stay tuned for a few special entries as we wind down.
No news yet
Frustrating: I received a denial from the insurance company for the several thousand dollar genetic test.
Relieving: It was because of a coding error.
Frustrating: I called the social worker and told her this and that I have not heard back about results, leaving a voice message.
Relieving and Frustrating: She left me a message saying “no problem” regarding the coding problem, and said nothing about the results.
Frustrating: I called and left another voice mail asking her to check out whether the results had come in. And now it’s Friday at 6:15pm. SO I will have to continue the waiting game.
The doc thinks I’m extremely low risk for a positive genetic test result, but even so, I was told it would not be more than 2 weeks. It’s been over 3 weeks now. I don’t mean to whine, but when waiting for cancer or genetic test results, I’d take a clue from our elementary school. One day when E was in probably 4th grade, the principal of the school called me at work. The first thing she said was “Everything is ok.”. This was an incredible relief to the sudden realization that my son’s school principal was interrupting me at work. The “Oh by the way, the test was negative.” kind of presentation, is really not one I recommend in this arena. BTW the principal was calling to tell me that a child who was recovering from a bullying episode on the playground said out of the blue that “E….is always, always is nice.” 🙂
What can I do about it anyway? Not much. SO life continues to go on, and I’m pleased that it is what it is.
