September 8, 2009Can we get some health insurance reform up in here? Seriously. I just received the bill for my spinal and brain MRIs: $807.75. And that’s after my Aetna insurance plan (supposedly) paid 80%. What do people who can’t work because of their MS, or another condition that keeps them from having employer-provided health insurance, do?
August 31, 2009So, I’m dreading fall. It means that the outdoor funtimes I’ve enjoyed during this SUPER AWESOME summer have to come to an end (I’m a fair-weather fun-haver). And, the yo-yo-ing temperatures mean that I’m probably going to be in pain a lot more often. It’s totally depressing. Like, for reals. Which is kind of a new wrinkle in this whole MS adventure. I don’t usually get and then stay depressed, but this glum feeling has been sticking with me longer than usual–and it’s not the right time of month for that.
