What Can Go Wrong Is!

[beautifulnewme2012 164]

28 days till surgery and the devil is out to get me!! First, right as I was being submitted for approval, my husband got very sick and ended up being hospitalized for several days. Got through that..still waiting on a bill...then, I got approved but found out my hospital wants what's left of my deductible plus my entire OOP up frnt...not expecting that we hadn't saved that much yet as I was originally told by the registration dept I could put a downpayment down then make payments, I was apparantly told wrong ...but I decided to borrow from a family member...got thru that...this month is going to be tight but we can get it done...THEN...

With no warning, my trucks brakes start grinding yesterday...no previous warning squeels or anything...LOL....yes I have to laugh...so now I have to see if the repair bill is going to be sky high...if it is, I might have to push back surgery a few more weeks...I just wonder why all this now? Everything was going so smoothly before!! Why me why now!?!? So, I am going to have Faith that Jesus will deliver for me and laugh...cause laughing keeps you young. Or, maybe I am just going nuts...not sure!! Pray for me if you will???

Oh my goodness I am so sorry! Will the Hospital allow you to set up a payment plan? I work at a hospital and we set people up on payment plans all the time...

Whoops apparently I didnt read your post right! You already tried the payment plan! Darn!

No they won't because its "elective surgery". That part worked out though. I was able to borrow from a family member what I couldn't come up with by the first and it will only take me about 2 mths to pay her back because we had already saved a lot of it. I am just worried about the brake repair at this point. That's the one thing that could force me to reschedule.

My surgery is May 1st and my husband has a stomach virus!! I have been sleeping in another bedroom and staying as far away as possible!! My preop visit is on Friday the 13th to see the anesthesiologist and NUT for liquid diet requirements and pay the required $3000 prior to surgery. No money, no surgery. I could really use that money elsewhere but I dare not touch it! All will work out for you ~ best wishes!

Aww! I would try asking around and see if hubby or any of his friends can do the brakes? You can save some money on labor at least. You will get thru it! My surgery date is May16th and I am convinced something is going to happen to get in the way of it. Good luck with everything and I will definitely keep you in my prayers

Thanks guys!! @VSG I know what u mean...every time I hear one of my kids sniffle I give them the "stank eye" and pop a Vitamin C...Hahahah!

@ Amanda...my husband is NOT very "handy" as far as house repairs or cars...I know WAY more about cars than he does..my ex husband was a mechanic so I learned LOTS from him..and we just moved to Beaumont, don't really have friends here yet...not any mechanic types anyway. But I trust the repair will be ok. If its under 400 we will be fine.

Last time I asked hubby to do anything to a car was a complete disaster. We had an old van that I had just paid 600 bucks to redo the entire brake system on...hubby calls and says the steering is acting funny so I troubleshoot on the phone and tell him it needs power steering Fluid..no biggie...the next day he is broken down on the side of the road..our mechanic gets it and calls me up. My DH poured steering Fluid in the brake fluid container...thus ruining the entire brake line and everything it touched along the way...another several hundred dollars later, I asked my sweet hunny to never touch the cars again without supervision...LOL. My husband was raised by his grand dad who's main "thing" was farming and his Mom, who didn't own a car most of the time. Nuff said...LOL

Oh goodness, yeah keep him away from the vehicles! My boyfriend is a mechanic, I wish we were closer!

You and I have the same date for surgery would love to know, what are they requiring for your pre op diet. And hopefully share our experience with each other.

That is always the way..never just one thing can go wrong. Very frustrating!! I hope for your sake though that you get to keep your surgery date and all works out well! Good luck
