I am being serious. It seems like if one bad thing happens alot of bad comes with it.
1. Friend's dog died and she is beyond grief. I never got to say goodbye to the dog, who's health took an unexpected turn for the worse overnight.
2. Another friend's dad died of lung cancer. He stopped smoking after his teens/early 20s, almost 50 years ago.
3. I want to fly down to Indianapolis from Michigan for the funeral. The roundtrip prices are outrageous--$1,200 on average. Our airport is a hub; however getting someone to drive from a larger airport like Traverse City is iffy because it is 1.5 hours away and all my friends work. Their prices may be a bit less, though. I do have some friends who may be driving down for the funeral but sitting in a car for 7-8 hours with my back problems isn't going to be pleasant.
4. I got an unexpected bill for 6 days of physical therapy back in April. I paid $50 per visit at the time, then my insurance decided not to pay for any of it so I got a bill for it yesterday, for $750. I have to pay all my insurance out-of-pocket. They raised my premiums by $20 a month. I thought I WAS paying for all my PT at the time of the visits. My friend told me yesterday most PT was over $100 an hour, at least a decade ago. She said it is likely alot higher now.
5. I had LASIK 8 years ago and at age 43 I found out I need reading glasses by next year. LASIK only treats far away vision problems, so tweaking it will do nothing. Contact lenses don't work after an eye has had LASIK. He said the Ocular Implant may not be the best for me but I would need to see a surgeon for that route. It could be worse, though. I just don't care for glasses.
6. A male friend suddenly dropped me from his life, no explaination. He stopped responding to all text, emails, FB, etc back in March. Nothing I can do but move on, I suppose. His marriage was on the rocks and now he is divorced. You can't force someone to be friends with you if they don't want to be friends. It hurts, though. I stopped contacting him the end of March rather than humiliate myself by pleading and begging for any response from him.

Read your coverage book first before you call-if your policy covers therapy, they are supposed to pay for it. Cite the page and paragraph to the supervisor. Threaten to report them to the state insurance commission if you aren't satisfied that they are giving you what the policy promised.
)))))). i TRIED AN INSPIRATION THREAD AND YOU MIGHT FIND THAT A COUPLE PAGES BACK, AND PEOPLE LINKED MANY INSPIRING PERFORMANCES. iT WAS WITH HELPING PEOPLE (I WAS A SOCIAL WORKER) sorry -caps were unintentional Asus low end has no light to remind me. Rather than retyping, just sorry- I am not yelling.
the Moldau, too! We were in Prague & Israel last year @ this time. I've alrways wondered, what came first, the Moldau or Hatikvah, the Israeli National Anthem. There are parts of the Moldau that definitely sound like "Hatikvah!"
